Therefore, in modern conditions in public places, Wi-Fi-routers are installed, which provide visitors to this place free distribution. But what to do if you need to do urgent work, and there is no free internet nearby? How to solve this problem? Many users of computers have phones in which providers packages are installed, providing not only voice communication, but also the Internet. But

Ways to transfer the Internet from the phone to a computer

Internet transmission options are actually only three. At the same time, their number can be reduced depending on the technical equipment of the computer and the accessories available in the presence of allowing such transmission. So,

The first method is using a cable connecting your phone and computer. In this case, there is no need for additional devices or special requirements for the computer, in addition to the presence of a connection cable.

The second method is the distribution of the Internet from the phone using Wi-Fi. But there are some features. The phone must have a Wi-Fi distribution option, a computer - enjoy a built-in Wi-Fi adapter, or such an adapter must exist as a separate device.

The third way is to use Bluetooth connections. Restrictions that are superimposed on such a method similar to as in the previous case. The choice of a way, how from the phone to transfer the Internet to the computer, will largely depend on your preferences, as well as the technical features of the computer and the phone. In the future, let's consider each of these methods separately.

Internet transmission via cable

The first thing you need to do is connect the phone to the computer using the cable. It is worth noting that in some phones, the same connector is used for and charging the battery. Therefore, it is important to have USB cord to connect the phone to a computer that does not always come in the kit. In the future, it is necessary that the PC define your phone. Depending on the operating system installed on your computer, and the type of phone, this operation may differ on different systems.

But the essence of this action is the same - the computer must provide the drivers for this phone model, thanks to which it can transmit data from the phone to the computer and back. Some systems provide automatic location of the drivers in the operating system, and some cables have a disk with the corresponding software. But most often you have to search for drivers on the Internet.

After the phone was determined, it is necessary to perform the operations shown in the photo.

You need to go to the phone settings and select the tab "Other Networks". In it, choose "USB modem". And after that, the Internet appears on the computer almost immediately.

How to transfer the Internet to the computer via Wi-Fi

This way of distribution of the Internet is the most popular and most often used by users of computer equipment. The advantage of this method is the lack of cable connections, and there is no need to search for drivers. In addition, most modern smartphones can distribute the Internet from the phone, while the phone acts as an access point. And any modern laptop has a Wi-Fi adapter. Therefore, first on the phone turns on the access point, and if a secure connection is planned, a password is installed on it.

After that, the computer turns on Wi-Fi, the Wi-Fi-network of the phone is determined. The computer requests a password after you enter the Internet is already on your computer.

Distribution of the Internet with Bluetooth Connection

Using Bluetooth connections are not so popular with computer owners. This is explained by a small range of reliable Bluetooth connections, on the one hand, and on the other - this type of connection is less common than Wi-Fi. With this type of connection, the phone protrudes in the form of its setting is very similar to the modem setting connected via the USB cable. Only in this case, a Bluetooth modem is selected in the phone settings.

Currently, almost everyone has a smartphone, however most users know only the main features of their device (phone call, Internet access, messaging, etc.). However, among other things, the smartphone can also be used as an access point to connect to the worldwide network of other mobile devices, and here we will tell you how to connect the phone to the Internet through a cell phone.

For such a connection, you will need only a bit of attention and elementary orientation by partitions and parameters of the tablet / mobile phone.

How to distribute the Internet from the phone to a WiFi tablet?
