  • 4. Touch Wireless & networks.
  • 5. Touch Tethering & portable hotspot.
  • 6. Touch USB tethering.
  • 7. The phone is now tethered.
  • 8. On the computer, wait for the device drivers to install then click Home network.
  • 9. Wait while the computer automatically applies the settings and connects to the network.
  • 10. Setup is complete. Click Close.
  • Note: in step 8, we've selected Home network because we know and trust both the Samsung Galaxy 551 and the computer.
