Tethering, indeed, is the other way around: using your phone as wireless modem for your PC.

If your cell phone has WiFi, it can connect to your wireless broadband router (or any free hotspot). And that's all you can do without data plan.

You crossposted

And used the word tethering. I suggest you use your other post in the Android forum where you did not use the word tether.
