Tethering; Wi-Fi Hotspot - Asus ROG PHONE 8 User Manual

Tethering

When Wi-Fi service is not available, you can use your ROG Phone as a modem or turn it into a Wi-Fi
hotspot to get Internet access on your laptop, tablet, and other mobile devices.
IMPORTANT! Most mobile service providers may require a data plan for you to be able to use the
tethering function. Contact your mobile service provider about availing of this data plan.
NOTES:
•
Internet access via tethering may be slower than the standard Wi-Fi or mobile connection.
•
Only a limited number of mobile devices can tether to your ROG Phone for Internet access.
• Turn off the tethering feature when you're not using it to help save battery power.
