I don't have an answer but would like to vote for the "Internet Passthrough" feature too. Is Development forum the right place for this feature? Should this thread be moved there as a [REQUEST]

reverse tethering

I wounder if someone could make an app to share pc' internet on android "reverse tethering" via usb.
I know it is possible to use wifi instead, but there is no way to use by usb. I searched internet and saw many people need help for this issue.
waiting for a MASTER developer to help.

Ok, that would be USB networking tool. If the kernel supports it (BIG IF with X10)
This may be something like what you want but not sure
https://market.android.com/details?id=service.tracetool&feature=search_result
Description
This service creates an USB tunnel between the android and the PC.
You need to install the windows part.
See http://www.codeproject.com/KB/android/UsbPortForwarding.aspx for details
With this solution, you can surf on your mobile (using the internet connection on your PC) through the USB tunnel AND a proxy.
Please, post your comment on codeproject site.

[Q] Share PC Internet / Reverse Tether

Hi all,
Is it possible to share my PC or Laptop's current internet connection with my Galaxy S 2? What I mean by that is I want to be able to plug in my phone to my laptop via usb, and use the PC's internet instead of using my 3G data.
This is separate to things like making the laptop or pc broadcast its connection via wifi, I'm only talking about sharing the connection via usb. Is it possible? Even if it means flashing a certain ROM?
That is a htc sense only feature afaik

That link is apparently only for Android 2.2, and it was written in 2010.
Is there no other way, no app or anything I can download to make this work? Surely the functionality is there...? Any particular ROM that can do this even?
I too am very interested in this feature. I actually asked the same question before:

But I got rubbished by some stuck up prick...

What you are looking for is called Tethering.
You can enable and configure it on your phone in
menu => Settings => Wireless and Network => Tethering and Mobile Hotspot =>
a) USB Tethering, if you want to be connected via USB to your PC, or
b) Configure mobile WLAN hotspot, if you want to connect your PC via WLAN with your phone.
There is also a short help in this settings menu.
Good luck !
^i think what the OP mean is how to share the internet connection of his/her PC to his/her SGS2 (not SGS2 to PC).

So, it is tethering the other way round.
My idea: install and configure a WLAN hotspot on your PC.
I do not know any solution to get it done by using USB cable.

Its very easy just share your internet connection via wifi over your place and connect to internet on your x10mp via wifi.......
Can I do it with cable and USB connect?

I am not sure of it. Hope this page will help you out somewhat
Reverse Tethering AFAIK is still unstable and not fully working, yet probably not even compatible with our phones. You need to get Wifi connection instead.

Help wth internet sharing

hi all,
i have a Samsung galaxy R with stock 2.3.5 & i was wondering if there is any app / setting that let's u share your PC's broadband connection with android phone via USB cable . the thing is, i have a wired ADSL router at my place (Non-WiFi) so i just simply want to explore my options before i just go ahead & buy the WiFi router. i tried goggling that same but it seems there is no straight forward app that let u do so in Samsung phone, my bro is having HTC explorer & it has option called "Internet pass through" which let u do exactly what i need. any help is highly appreciated
sorry if i posted in wrong section, i'm a newbie here
Hoi,
did you think about Bluetooth-Tethering also ?
On that way you can connect your phone via your pc to the internet.

thx for the reply... but that's exactly opposite of wht i want, i dnt have connection on my phone to share with my Pc but vice versa (i have broadband connection on my pc to share with my phone WITHOUT WiFi router, via USB or bluetooth)
Use Connectify software to share your wired broadband over Wifi
