Share Wi-fi internet (not mobile network)

Hi

I am going on vacation and have to pay for internet per device. Is there a way (app?) to share the wifi connection on one tablet so I can get wifi on my mobile as well?

Thanks for help and answers :-)
 
Can you refrase your question?

I think I know what the OP means. In some places, especially hotel rooms, they might charge per device for internet access on the hotel WiFi, e.g. $5 for laptop, $5 for phone, $5 for tablet, etc. And it's done by registering the individual device MAC addresses to the network AFAIK. You just can't use WiFi to tether another device, when the first device is already using the WiFi.
 
Thank you Mike!

To the op, at this time there's nothing I can come up with..sorry.

It would be less expensive if you had a good service provider with the unlimited plan..then you could simply share the data from your phone with its hotspot..other than that, that's that.
