You can if supported by your carrier, connect the HP Envy to the iPhone via Personal Hotspot like you would to a regular Wi-Fi network and use thew iPhone's 4G connection to stream Netflix on the Envy. Windows will just see the iPhone as a Wi-Fi network it can use.


Do note, that carriers may throttle your 4G connection if that usage is against their policies however.
