When the internet connection in your home interferes with your Xbox gaming experience, it certainly affects your overall gaming progress.

But thanks to your phone, it can tether its cellular connection to your console, so it can resume your online match in short time.

Once carried out, you can continue on with the game you're playing, especially if it's online with your friends or colleagues.

With that, here's how to tether phone internet to Xbox One.

Tether phone internet to Xbox via hotspot

You can tether your phone internet to the Xbox console through its built-in mobile hotspot feature.

The Reddit page for Xbox One mentions that all you need to do is to create your own hotspot, while you may also need to find your Xbox One's access point that can be seen through the Settings.

Proceed to the Network and once the hotspot is being detected by your console, fill in the password to access your phone's internet. By doing so, you now have your phone tethered its internet to the Xbox One itself.

The same applies for Android & iOS

Whether it's an Android phone or an Apple iPhone, you only need to attempt the same steps as mentioned above.

Both phone operating systems are capable of running a mobile hotspot function which can be used to tether its internet to a separate device within its vicinity.

Just make sure you have a sufficient data allowance on your phone, because if you don't have any then there's no point in tethering your phone at all.
