    Tethering is using your cell phone as a modem to make an internet connection. Wi-Fi tethering means you are using this modem connection over Wi-Fi network to other devices.

    You could have a cell phone that offers wi-fi tethering and connect all your wireless devices to it, just like to a wireless router.
