Greetings. I have a desktop PC with no WiFi. I am trying to use the Nexus 7 like a USB WiFi dongle for a temporary internet access. Does anyone know if this can be done? My N7 is stock, no root. But I'd be willing to root if necessary.
Thanks
Possible...
Not 100% sure on this, but if you get a micro USB to OTG adapter, and then a USB to Ethernet adapter, run a wireless hotspot, and change your settings to allow others to connect through that Wi-Fi connection.
Just an idea, give it a go.

Hi there,
I am looking for a phone that would allow me to join a wireless (wifi) network and then share the connection with an ethernet connected laptop.
I assume that I will need a phone that can accept either a USB or Compact Flash ethernet adapter.
Has anyone come across such a solution?
Regards,
Tim

Unfortunately USB is not an option as we are in a secure environment and USB access is locked down on the laptops.
However you could use your phone connected to your computer with USB, bluetooth, or wifi then connect a hub to your computers LAN port then setup ics with your comp.

can i use Wireless USB Adapter on my acer A500?
a500 already has wifi, if you want to find out just plug one in. Probably not though, unless drivers are available for it. Almost every tablet has wifi capability so not too sure if anyone's bothered with USB wifi adapter drivers.
I would like to use other wifi the adapter, for more best communication quality

Hi guys, I have an old Galaxy A40 and I like to share its wi-fi conecction ovet ethernet. I tried with an USB type-c Hub but I can't turn on the USB tethering option and the ethernet option in the menù is only for input connection. It's a problem with some missing drivers or I need an ethernet-USBC adapter? (I use the HUB with my new OnePlus and it's ok but on OnePlus I have the Ethernet Tethering option that missing in the A40)
I'd like to share the connection with a router and I can't use USB ports because the router doesn't allow me to use a smartphone as input.
Hope someone can help me. Thanks.
