I can's say that I have ever heard of "Net thetering ". 

 

Did you mean to say network tethering?

That is the same as mobile hotspot, which is what I use on my mobile phone when I need it.

 

As long as your laptop has a WWAN with an active internet connection from a mobile phone service it is possible.

 

Here is a document from Microsoft with the instruction on how to use Mobile Hotspot for Windows 10 and 11.

A WWAN provides a network connection. The speed, or bandwidth depends on the plan you select and pay the provider for.

 

Net "contraction" is a nonsensical, made up phrase.
