About Mobile Hotspot mode
Depending on your wireless service provider, this feature might not be available.
You can use the Wi-Fi technology on your BlackBerry smartphone in one of two ways: Wi-Fi mode or Mobile Hotspot mode.
When you turn on Wi-Fi mode, you can connect your smartphone to a Wi-Fi network to access an Internet connection. You
can only connect to an external Wi-Fi network, such as your home network or office network, while in Wi-Fi mode.
When you turn on Mobile Hotspot mode, you can use your smartphone as a mobile hotspot so that other Wi-Fi enabled
devices can use the mobile network connection on your smartphone. For example, if you are traveling, you can connect
your smartphone with your laptop and use your smartphone's Mobile Hotspot mode to access the Internet on your laptop.
If your smartphone is connected to a CDMA network, when you make or receive a call, your smartphone suspends your
Mobile Hotspot session until you end the call. Your Mobile Hotspot session resumes when your call ends. While Mobile
Hotspot mode is turned on, you might not be able to send messages from your smartphone. Messages you send while your
smartphone is in Mobile Hotspot mode are sent after you turn off Mobile Hotspot mode.
