WLAN Router with Android - is it possible? - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
I like to use my old Android phone (kitkat) as wlan router, NOT only hotspot.
So ideally it should be possible to connect my PC via WLAN for Internet access AND also
to use a logged-in printer. Until now I can connect the PC(s) for internet and connect the printer
but there is no way to access the printer from the PC. Akaik this means there is no internal
routing in the android device.
I didnt find a solution via an app, is there any?
Because it is much Linux in the android, can i activate internal routing?

If your PC has Bluetooth and supports PAN Profile as an Access Point, it should work Yes.

Ethernet tethering

Hi looking to resolve a problem that I can't find an answer to by using Google
I have a tablet running android 11 and have connected a USB c to Ethernet adapter. I have activated wifi and the tablet connects to my local office network. I have activated Ethernet tethering and plugged in a LAN cable to the adapter and the external device (ASIC computer).
The tablet is basically being used to provide wifi connectivity for the device.
I can log into the dashboard and it shows that the ASIC computer is connected and all is working normally BUT I have not found a way to log into the device.... mainly because I have not found a way to locate it's IP address.
I want to be able to configure the firmware on the device from the tablet. It is possible to do this by connecting the device to the router via a lan cable. I then find the IP address on my PC, but I would like to also use the tablet. Thanks
Here is a link to show the set up: https://photos.app.goo.gl/iFsKNWniz2DiDpHD7
Bumped! still trying to get an answer....
