Tethering your android device allows it to turn into a hotspot or a router, which means sharing the devices 3g to other devices. Some phone providers add a lot of bloatware and add an app that makes you pay for tethering. Don't do this. It's extremely overpriced and it can be achieved for much cheaper, even free. Just head on over to the Android Marketplace and search for tether, and there you go.

Can you use an Android phone as a WiFi hotspot for ATT phones?
There are two ways to do this. The easy way: Add tethering to your account through AT&T's site and pay an additional fee on your monthly bill. The hard (but free) way: Root your phone and flash a custom ROM with a netfilter-enabled kernel (most ROMs have this feature). Then, you must download a WiFi tethering app. Once you have that downloaded and installed, you need to configure it to your liking. After that you can freely create WiFi hotspots anywhere you have a data connection. Be warned: Tethering uses a LOT of data. If you are on a tiered data plan, I recommend using the former method to tether your phone rather than risk exceeding your data allowance.
