Step 2: Connecting Your Laptop to Your iPhone Hotspot (a.k.a. The Force Awakens... Again)

  1. Boot up your laptop. Let's hope it awakens faster than a sloth on a sugar rush.
  2. Find the Wi-Fi icon on your laptop (it usually looks like a bunch of wavy lines – because Wi-Fi waves are totally wavy, duh). Click on that bad boy.
  3. A magical list of Wi-Fi networks should appear. Look for the name you gave your hotspot (or the default name, if you're feeling boring). It's like finding your soulmate... but for the internet!
  4. Click on your hotspot's name, and if it asks for a password (which it probably will), enter the one displayed on your iPhone.

Congratulations! You've successfully connected your laptop to your iPhone hotspot. Now go forth and conquer the internet, you glorious digital warrior!
