### Part Two
1. Turn on wifi hotspot **or** usb tethering
### **Verify!**
You want to verify that you are connected to your Android hotspot.
Android tether is a router that will stand up a subnet of `192.168.43.0/24` for wifi hotspot,
and `192.168.42.0/24` for usb tether.
* On linux open a terminal and type `ip addr`
* on Windows open a `cmd` console and type `ipconfig`
* If tethering via wifi hotspot you should see an ipv4 address of `192.168.43.XX`
* If tethering via usb you should see an ipv4 address of `192.168.42.XX`
### **ACHTUNG Do Not!**
* **DO NOT** turn on ethernet tethering
* you probably don't have the physical equipment available to do that
