Try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether

You would probably need to do some internet connection sharing on the PC and setup an ad-hoc wireless connection so that your phone can see your pc as a wireless access point of sorts.
good luck.

Problem with ICS on WM6 and Windows 7

Hello,
I have search and read many before posting but I do not find the solution to my problem.
I use my HTC Jade (T3232) with standard ROM as a usb and wifi modem for my laptop with windows XP. I have just purchased a netbook with windows 7 starter and I try to connect the phone as a modem.
It works perfectly with WMwifiRouter (thanks to the author) but does not work with usb.
When I launch the ICS on the phone and I plug the USB, it launches Remote RNDIS Internet sharing and creates a new network connection but this connection remains "unidentified". I assume there is an IP probleme.
I precise that the firewall has been swith off.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Internet from pc to android device

AKA reverse-tethering.
I tried to find info on that subject and it's impossibly scarce. Very strange as I am sure there are a lot of guys that don't have 3g connection.
So how to do it?
Is it possible to configure Bluetooth PAN and do it like the WM6.5 guides say?
Is it possible through USB connection?
Easiest way is on a PC with a wireless network adapter and Windows 7.
Use the Virtual Router Manager http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/ to set up your computer as a wireless router that you can connect your phone to.
I use it a lot when I am travelling / working and a hotel room or office only has wired internet. I can connect the laptop to the ethernet then share up the connection via my wireless LAN.

Make sure your driver supports this function. VirtualRouter website provides with a list of compatible network cards (link).
In addition, only Win7 supports this service.
Download for Beta version of Connectify is in the Blog section.

Try the wpa_adhoc-signed.zip from this thread: "Android Ad-hoc support hack/wpa_supplicant"
I had the same problem, but this solved it. My HTC Desire sees now AdHoc access points.

This worked perfectly! I am using an external USB Wireless WiFi Network Adapter to connect my laptop to the internet, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Thanks for sharing the info!!!

Sharing internet connection with android if Win10 Laptop is unable to create hotspot

Hello,
This may sound weird but I'm sure I'm not the only one facing this problem. I don't want to invest on a wifi router just yet. It was pretty easy to share my laptop's internet connection with my phone when I was on Windows 7. But ever since I upgraded to Windows 10, some of my device drivers are messed up. I've tried installing multiple drivers (one at a time of course) to get my laptop to create a WiFi hotspot. Haven't succeeded yet.
But what I can do is connect my laptop to other WiFi networks.
I wonder if there is a way in which I can share my broadband connection from my laptop to my phone. Can the Android community help?
