This phone is broken (broken screen) and was given to me, so I figured I’d use it as a WiFi extender, but I guess I can’t.

    Comes in clutch sometimes. Like when a device doesn’t support captive portals (i.e. in a hotel), or your work laptop has trouble with them (as some work VPNs and security software causes problems).

    Then you can just log in from your cell phone, and then share that. The phone uses WPA2-Personal, which nearly everything supports.
