Abstract: The described embodiments include a tethering device that provides a tethering service to client devices. Generally, the tethering service enables a client device to share the tethering device's access to a network. For example, a client device may share the tethering device's access to a cellular network, through which the client device can access the Internet. In the described embodiments, a client device and the tethering device are configured so that the client device causes the tethering device to activate the tethering service without a user performing one or more operations for manually activating the tethering service on the tethering device.

Abstract translation: 所描述的实施例包括向客户端设备提供网络连接服务的网络连接设备。 通常，网络捆绑服务使得客户端设备能够共享网络绑定设备对网络的访问。 例如，客户端设备可以共享网络共享设备对蜂窝网络的访问，通过该蜂窝网络，客户端设备可以访问因特网。 在所描述的实施例中，客户端设备和网络共享设备被配置为使得客户端设备使得系统捆绑设备在没有用户执行一个或多个操作以在网络共享设备上手动激活网络连接服务的情况下激活网络连接服务。
