What are the procedures to follow to perform or use our android smartphone as a tethering and potable hotspot? I am currently using Htc Sense with an Android OS. I would be glad if I get your assistance or guidance to be able to use my smartphone for tethering and portable hotspot for my laptop computer. Thank you.
