11.1.6 Tethering & portable hotspot
You can tether your computer with a USB cable or via Bluetooth

with your computer.
You can turn on your device into a Wi-Fi access point, to share your
device's Internet connection with one or more computers or other
devices.
11.1.7 VPN settings
A mobile virtual private network (mobile VPN or mVPN) provides
mobile devices with access to network resources and software
applications on their home network, when they connect via other
wireless or wired networks. Mobile VPNs are used in environments
where workers need to keep application sessions open at all times,
throughout the working day, as the user connects via various wireless
networks, encounters gaps in coverage, or suspend-and-resumes
their devices to preserve battery life. A conventional VPN cannot
survive such events because the network tunnel is disrupted, causing
applications to disconnect, time out, fail, or even the computing device
itself to crash.
For more information on VPN, please refer to "6.6 Connecting to
virtual private networks".
11.1.8 Mobile networks
This function allows you to share your tablet's Internet via mobile
to access point.
