Oppo F9 Pro : How to enable internet sharing
Every smartphone comes with option to share internet connection. This means that you can setup your phone as a wireless router. This helps a lot for those who are always on the go and need to connect their laptop or tablet to internet. Tethering works when your phone is connected to the Internet via mobile data or Wi-Fi network.
Personal Hotspot
This setting will let you share your phone’s mobile data connection to other devices. This will increase your phone’s data usage.

When a device is connected to your phone’s Hotspot, you will notice a blue band at the top of your phone screen.
Use Wi-Fi Tethering
