Tethering is the process of sharing a device's internet connection with other devices. This can be done by connecting the device to another device (such as a laptop or tablet) via a wired or wireless connection, or by creating a hotspot that other devices can connect to using Wi-Fi. Tethering allows other devices to access the internet using the cellular data connection of the device that is tethered. This can be useful when there is no Wi-Fi available or when a user wants to share their internet connection with others.
To connect a mobile hotspot via Bluetooth on a phone, you will need to have both the mobile hotspot device and the phone with Bluetooth capabilities.
