Sharing the Mobile Data Connection
The Tethering & portable hotspot settings allow you to share your data connection. You can share
the LEX L10ig mobile data connection with a single computer via USB tethering or Bluetooth tethering.
You can also share the data connection with up to eight devices at once, by turning it into a portable
Wi-Fi hotspot. While the LEX L10ig is sharing its data connection, an icon appears at the top of the
screen and a corresponding message appears in the notification list.
Configuring USB Tethering
Use this procedure to share a data connection with a host computer.
NOTICE: USB tethering is not supported on computers running Mac OS. If your computer is
running Windows 7 or a recent version of Linux (such as Ubuntu), follow these instructions
without any special preparation. If running a version of Windows that precedes Windows 7, or
some other operating system, you may need to prepare the computer to establish a network
connection via USB.
NOTICE: After connecting the LEX L10ig to a computer using USB tethering, the computer
disconnects from the network connection, for a short time, and does not have access to the
Internet (the LEX L10ig becomes the primary network adapter).
Procedure:
1 Connect the LEX L10ig to a host computer with the USB cable.
