WIFI internet sharing works pretty well. Received over 5 Mb/s on my laptop from speedtest.
But my work doesn't allow wifi networks. Anyone know how to tether via USB?
Did you subscribe to a tethering plan or was it already active? I didn't go with tethering since its data capped.

I went with the tethering plan. My usage is usually way below 4 GB.
so your work actively scans for wifi networks? Or is it disabled within your PC or laptop?

I'm hoping that both USB and Wi-Fi tethering gets opened up on the Titan. I would guess that the HD7 instructions for USB tethering would work if we could get our devices interop-unlocked. Let's hope that happens soon.
Work scans for it.

I rooted my MoPho, but can't seem to get my PC to connect to the internet via the phone's wifi signal. I bought a Belkin N150 wireless USB adapter. I can get the computer to pick up the MpPho's signal and connect via Wireless Tether or Quick wifi hotspot lite, but the computer says no internet connection, even though the signal strength is excellent. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
read around the general forum and the faq forum also. you might get some ideas from them. as far as i go i use wifi tether 3.1 beta 8 and it works fine.

I still cant get my PC to feed off the MpPho's wifi hotspot despite it connecting and having an "ecellent" connection. Any thoughts? Much thanks.

1. disable 3G by Data Enabler.
2. open Quick Wifi HotSpot Lite and start tethering.
3. enable 4G
works 100%
I can currently tether my Verizon GS3 to my laptop using WiFi Tether for root users. I want to bridge a connection to my ethernet port so I can connect my original Xbox to play online via Xlink. Everything goes fine until I bridge the connections because I suddenly lose internet connection to my GS3. This has worked for me in the past when I used my OG Droid on a 3G connection. Anyone have any explanation on what could be causing it to not work?
My settings in WiFi tether are:
Device Profile: Generic ICS
Setup Method:Netd(master)
This is what I gathered was how to get wireless tethering to work for me, and it has.
hi fellows
i just installed a 4g device in my laptop for internet access. It working fine. Next i made the laptop a hotspot via adhoc connection and after that though internet is fine but i am unable to connect my samsung sii via wifi with it. Even though a friends iphone connected to my lappys hotspot but my phone doesn't and neither does it show that a hotspot/ wifi connections exists.
help
Ad Hoc was designed only for local connections, not Internet.
Use Connectify to make hotspot.

You need to setup a virtual router or if your laptop has a router you can share net via that, originally custom roms does not support ad hoc, but certain roms are modified to enable it.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.
Router has wlan infrastructure mode, not adhoc. It doesn't matter if the ROM supports it or not.
I have an un rooted n9 (wifi only), and im trying to bridge an authenticated wifi network to a hotspot using my phone and tab. Seems the n9 doesnt support wifi hotspot, or sharing its own data connection - did i miss anything?

I used phone Hotspot to set mine up in Best Buy parking lot. Not sure what you are trying to do.
Im trying to connect one device to the other (works bluetooth phone -> tab) and then connect a 3rd device to the wifi hotspot on the 2nd. I can do this with 2 phones, but need the nexus 9 to share its internet connection for this to work.
if I understand, you are attempting to daisy chain devices, won't happen unless your tablet and phone has 2 WiFi radios, haven't heard of any standard non specialty devices like that. you can either be host, or receiver, not both. you can only try to use phone to Bluetooth tether, and maybe chain them like that somehow. I haven't tried it myself.
you can see if your device will recognize a WiFi USB attached to a host cable.. just an idea..

I would create a wireless hotspot with my Nexus 9 but it looks all the tethering options are missing. Maybe because it lacks the LTE modem. This is quite stupid: I can get the connection from a bluetooth/usb connection.
Is anyone having issues getting the Bluetooth connection to hold? I can pair the devices but they disconnect as soon as they connect. I've tried clearing the Bluetooth sharing on both my phone and the nexus 9 but still nothing. :S

Just got easy tether on my n200 today, i plan on tethering it to my linux pc and setting up a wireless access point on that pc, through which all my devices will connect to the internet.
On my old Galaxy Note 3, I was able to do this easily, as I could simply use the regular tethering option then create a hotspot connection on linux. I could get faster speeds just by changing the TTL to 65 on the tethered pc. On these newer phones, however, it's much harder to bypass carrier tether throttling, so I have to use easy tether instead.
I'm not 100% sure how it works, but its different from regular usb tethering, as a result i'm unable to create the standard hotspot connection in linux. Also tried sharing internet on Windows, but it says that I'm not connected to the internet. Any ideas on how to do this?
