Use your PC as a mobile hotspot
Turn your Windows 10 computer into a secured mobile hotspot by sharing the PC’s internet connection with some other devices over Wi-Fi.

Cellular settings for Windows10
Some Windows 10 devices contain an eSIM or a SIM card that can allow you to connect to a cellular network. This will allow you to go online in more than one place with a cellular signal.
If your Windows 10 device does not have an eSIM or a SIM card, connection to a cellular network can still be established by plugging in an external cellular gadget (a modem or mobile broadband device). Either way, you need to have a sufficient data plan to connect and enjoy the web.
