USB host and USB modem? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I have a rooted device running on a custom ROM. It supports host USB. Can I run a mobile wireless USB stick through the USB port and get internet? I was hoping to hook it up to my tablet and have a mobile hotspot everywhere I go by tethering the connection to my other devices via WiFi.
Thanks for all the help!

tethering question

I was wondering if it is possible to WiFi tether with the GN10.1?
I tried connecting the tablet to my PC via USB, but the tether option did not show up in the settings like it does with my HTC Amaze.
It is for me...
I have wifi tethered my table to my phone and my PC. You need the right software or know how to use netsh to make your PC a wifi hotspot.
Are you trying to use the WiFi on your tablet to give your PC Internet access? Presumably meaning your PC does not have a WiFi adapter of its own.
You probably need to look for an app for that. And/or a driver for your PC so that it can recognize the tablet, when connected by USB, as a USB network adapter.

Reverse USB Tethering

So I have an LG Phoenix (p505) and I have a wired connection to a pc and an ethernet cable hooked to the pc with internet connection. The pc is running Ubuntu. I want to use my PC and my phone as a router to take the Ethernet connection and put it out as a hotspot for my other devices. The LG is running KitKat 4.4.4 stable ROM.
Any suggestions? I already tried a couple of "terminal only" threads and got kinda mixed up. It worked for like 2 seconds...

Cannot USB tether (Samsung Galaxy S5)

Hello, so i just updated my Galaxy S5 to the newest android 6 version but for some reason i cannot tether it to my PC or to my laptop. I connected the phone via USB to my PC and connected the phone to my wifi network but as soon as i tick the USB tether option it deticks itself back in a matter of just a few milliseconds, i don't know why, i would like to find a solution for this because tomorrow i will probably need to tether my phone to my work laptop.
