I am wondering if it is possible to hook up my phone via USB-cable to
my computer to gain access through my broadband and then via
portable wi-fi make my phone into a wi-fi AP with the same speed as
that I get from my computer instead of using my phones 3G connection
wich is much slower than my computer..
Is there any apps out there that can help me with this? And, if it is
possible, do I need to root?
My phone is a HTC Incredible S, not rooted (yet..)

hi there, i was thinking about using my htc s730 as a wireless access point. but i don't want it to use the 3g connection it has, what i want is to have the phone getting the internet connection via usb and then the phone with an adhoc network so i can connect to it.
So kinda like this:
Pc----->phone------>other device
USB WiFi
Is this at all possible?
Thanks in advance

ํYou can use Android phone to Wifi hotspot.
Setting - Wireless & Network - Portable hotspot
If I understand correctly you want to connect machines via WiFi to you phone that is plugged in to your main PC which has an internet connection?
Ahh, I know what you want, I used to do it on my iPod.
I'm pretty sure PDANet should allow this, just USB tether with WiFi on, and it shouldn't turn it off.
If it does, then there's another program that I can't remember that does the same thing.
Hi,
During PC LAN parties with my friends, my Wireless card lags and skips (its a pretty old wifi card). I usb tether a lot and it runs really fast, but it uses a lot of data.
What I want to do is use my phone as a wifi reciever. I thought I could just usb tether to my pc, but instead of using 4g, connect my phone to wifi and use that, but when ever I usb tether, it makes me turn off wifi.
Is there any way I can do this? Preferably without using something like PDA net, but if thats my only option, ill use it.
I am using the latest version of "Clean Rom" and I am rooted running 4.3
Hello guys,
I'm currently trying to use this phone to stream VR content with riftcat, so I need to connect the phone to my pc and turn on USB tethering to stream using the USB, problem is that my phone requires to be connected to something (wifi or mobile) to actually enable tethering and if I turn on wifi it automatically connects to my pc via wifi instead of cable defeating the original purpose.
Is there any fix to this?
I'm currently on the last Leedroid ROM and the phone is rooted and S-OFF and i'm open to any kind of solution (even if it involves changing the ROM)
Thank you all in advance
So i have a pretty complicated network setup right now due to my normal home internet dying and technicians never coming to fix it, so i'm now using my phone on 4G, use the wifi hotspot on that phone, go downstairs, use another phone to connect to that hotspot and use usb tethering to get internet on my pc.
The issue right now is that i can't seem to be able to communicate with my desktop pc (connected by usb tether) with my laptop (connected on wifi hotspot)
any idea on what software i could use to fix that?
