Sharing internet from your iPhone or iPad to your computer can be a lifesaver when you don’t have access to Wi-Fi. In this guide, we’ll show you how to share your internet connection from your iPhone or iPad to your computer using a USB cable.
Before we begin, you will need a USB cable and iTunes installed on your computer. If you don’t have iTunes installed, you can download it from another computer and copy it over to your PC.
Once you have iTunes installed, connect your iPhone or iPad to your computer using the USB cable. This will automatically open iTunes and the file explorer.
On your iPad, go to settings and turn on cellular data. Then, go to personal hotspot and allow others to join. Turn on Wi-Fi and enter your password.
If this is your first time sharing internet from your iPhone or iPad, you will need to trust the connection by entering your password. Once you do this, you will have access to the internet on your computer.
To ensure that the internet is coming from your iPad, right-click on the internet icon on your computer and open network and internet settings. You will see “Apple mobile device ethernet” listed, indicating that the internet is coming from your iPad.
That’s it! You can now enjoy internet access on your computer by sharing your connection from your iPhone or iPad. No need to worry about finding Wi-Fi when you’re out and about.
