Share Internet from iPhone to Windows PC via [USB, Hotspot, Bluetooth]
0If you're trying to share your iPhone's internet connection with a Windows PC via USB or Bluetooth, this tutorial offers a clear and simple walkthrough. Unlike using traditional Wi-Fi hotspots, this method allows you to connect even if your PC doesn't have access to a wireless network. Both USB tethering and Bluetooth tethering are supported by iOS, but they require specific settings to be enabled and may vary slightly depending on your Windows version.
To begin, enable the Personal Hotspot on your iPhone. Open the Settings app, tap on *Personal Hotspot*, and toggle on the option to allow others to join. You may also see an option labeled “Allow Others to Join” or “Maximize Compatibility”—turn those on if available. Once the hotspot is active, you can proceed with either a USB or Bluetooth connection.
For USB tethering, simply connect your iPhone to your Windows PC using a Lightning-to-USB cable. Your PC should automatically detect the iPhone as a new network source. If prompted, select "Trust this computer" on your iPhone and make sure iTunes (or Apple Mobile Device Support) is installed on the PC for proper driver recognition. Once connected, the internet from your iPhone should be shared directly with your PC.
For Bluetooth tethering, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on both devices. On your PC, go to Bluetooth settings via the taskbar or by searching in the Start menu. Pair your iPhone by selecting "Add Bluetooth or other device," then choose your iPhone from the list. Once paired, go to Network Connections on your PC, click Change adapter options*, and look for the Bluetooth network. Right-click and select *Connect using Access point to establish the connection.
These methods are especially useful when Wi-Fi is unavailable, and using USB provides a more stable and faster internet connection compared to Bluetooth.
