To use your PC as a mobile hotspot in Windows 11, configure your network settings to share an existing internet connection with nearby devices over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Windows allows you to broadcast internet access from an active Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or cellular connection so phones, tablets, and other computers can get online. You can manage access with a custom network name and password or provide a quick QR code for clients to scan.
- In Settings, go to Network & internet > Mobile hotspot and turn on Turn on mobile hotspot to share internet with other devices.
- To stop sharing, switch off the same toggle or click the mobile hotspot tile in the taskbar Quick Settings panel.
- You can share Ethernet, cellular data, or Wi-Fi, and connecting devices can join using your password or a QR code.
