The ability to create a mobile hotspot can be useful in many situations. For example, if you are in a place with only a wired connection and want to connect your tablet or phone to the internet. Or you are in a place where you are the only one with a network subscription and you want to share the Internet with others.
Whatever the reason, Windows 11 makes it easy to share your internet connection or access your local network with the portable hotspot feature available through the Settings app.
