You're not understanding completely. My desktop computer does not have a built in wi-fi adapter, so I would have to use a wireless USB network adapter to get internet on this machine. Using this method, I was able to use the internet from my ISP (Cox Communications) rather than resort to using T-mobile's 3G network.
Let me do a flowchart for you:

Yeah, okay I did understand.
The phone can tether the cellular signal or the wifi signal.
It was implemented in froyo.
What is really cool is how fast it is. My computer is hard wired into my home network and when I activate tethering and disable the wired connection, the difference in speed tests and pings is imperceptible. They are both the same. Very impressive.

I like what you've done. You are tethering your computer to your phone via USB and then using your phone's WiFi connection to connect to your home's WiFi router, then on to Cox and the Internet.
In your diagram, the Internet doesn't lie between your phone and the computer. The Internet lies beyond your ISP. Otherwise nice.
Lastly, the tethering features were added by 2.2 as pointed out already.
Edit: added a diagram

By default wifi is set to sleep when the screen is off. Have you disabled this in wifi advanced settings?

Took me a few minutes to understand...
The point to note is: "tethering shares whatever internet connection is available"
1) Connect to the wifi network using your nexus one.
2) Share the internet via USB tethering.

Is this possible?

I have no Wireless networks around me, so I was wondering if it was possible to share my PC's internet with my phone.
I have this cable internet so no wireless :/.

No, just get a wireless cable router and connect the back of your modem to your router. Routers are quite cheap now starting at about £30. Now just use your wifi to connect to internet on phone without using your precious data.
You can also use your phone as a modem to connect your computer to the internet using your phones internet.

if you use xp see here http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/adhoc.mspx
and windows 7 here
http://lifehacker.com/5369381/turn-your-windows-7-pc-into-a-wireless-hotspot
or you could get a wifi router

and some wifi routers will let you use a Ethernet cable as input - just plug the cable into one of the ports on the back (at least my netgear dg834g will let me)

Holy crap!
I never knew anything about this!
Thanks so much man!
I tried it, and it first says ''Connecting'' and then just disconnects.

Can Fix that

So that I can help you regarding your issue..

That one.

If you are on Windows 7, just use Connectify It's cheaper (free^^) than buying a router.

I used the AD-HOC thing, and it worked with CM.

it looks like cable modem only, no router.

I have disabled the 5Ghz band, because my Note loses the conection using it. Thats the reason why I use only 2,4Ghz.
Can't I get more download speed on 2,4Ghz?
You have very fast network dude
What router are you using?

The 2.4GHz-band is very busy with more users on WiFi; the 5GHz-band is NOT used very often by users, hence the speed!
My router is a Linksys EA6500

Android Bluetooth tethering, speed capped to 700 kbps?

Hi folks,
I'm trying to use my HTC one for Bluetooth tethering (via Bluetooth PAN), so I can access internet on my Windows tablets.
It works but I can't get any speed higher than 0.7 Mbit/s
Yeah, Wi-fi/USB tether works fine and I get way better speed, but I want to use Bluetooth over Wifi due to it's consuming less power and can be initiated from outside of the phone. Plugging USB cables also can be a hassle.
My setups are as follows:
Internet <--3G/Wifi--> Android (HTC One) <--BT Tether--> Windows 8.1 PC (Dell Venue 8 Pro)
Both HTC One and Dell Venue Pro 8 have Bluetooth v4.0, so I don't think the hardware being limiting factor here, under Windows network status I can see 3 Mbit/s link
When tested with Speedtest.net APP on my HTC One I can get a full speed as usual
But when my DVP8 is tethtered to my HTC one via BT this is what I'm getting:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The 0.7mbps speed is consistent, I repeated the speed test several times. Which leads me to believe the BT throughput is capped for some reason.
I also have tested this on my Win8 Desktop PC and I'm getting exactly the same result.
According to Wikipedia the theoretical limits for Bluetooth 4.0 is indeed 3Mbit/s, So I'm expecting 1-1.5mbit/s speed here. (It's the typical 3G bandwidth I can get on my area anyway).
Any thoughts? Any experience or possible fix are welcome.
Thanks!

Found the culprit, the 700kbps cap actually only happens when wi-fi is active. When I use 3G I'm getting 1.5mbps as I expected. Thanks case closed.

Hello WizzWr.
As you mentioned above, when Wi-Fi is deactivated, we can get upto 1.5 ~1.6 mbps. right?
I wonder why the speeds can't go over 700kbps when Wi-Fi is on. Do you have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

me too, Moto C 4G, bluetooth PAN tether some times 1.5mbps , some other time 500kbps

same here. bt tethering LG G2 (bt 4.0, LOS17) to Huawei P2 Pro (bt 4.2, Android 9). 0.45Mbps when Huawei share wifi internet via bt, and 1.55Mbps when sharing mobile internet via bt.

Maybe your wifi and bluetooth are using the same 2.4GHz band that's why they're interfering with each other. If your wifi router supports it, try switching to a 5GHz channel.

Tegra Note is Haunted, disconnects internet when i enable Wifi on it.

Ji
I am using Tegra Note 7 with 4.4.2.
When ever i connect to my wifi, the internet at my home goes dead
Normaly my internet is all fine and dandy, and i can connect other devices like phones etc to my wifi.
However there is a dark mystery revolving my Xolo Tegra Note 7
When i switch on the wifi in the tablet, it makes the internet ping go higher and higher till it disconnects
Here is a screenshot of my pings

As you can see, the moment i flip the wifi button on my tablet, pings go climbing, and when i switch the wifi off, the internet becomes normal
.
This problem started 2 days ago. I use Dataone broadband from BSNL India. Why is that only my tablet causes this problem and not other devices? When i connect my phone to wifi and then connect tegra note to phone via Bluetooth internet sharing, same problem occurs.. Its like the tablet is sucking everything it connects

2spooky4me....
but have you configured VPNs in tab ?? ..
I think somehow your setup creates a n/w loop by multi-nic of tablet..
But since, I am not a Networking expert..
Can you try the same in some friends house... ( may be its your house thats haunted ) Joking :laugh:
Isolate the problem onto ISP by taking the tab to a friends house with Airtel / Reliance / any other broadband provider and then report.

Guys, iy was my GOOGLE AUTO BACKUP. Google+ had consumed 13 GB man, 13 friggin GB!!! All ym videos and photos are on Google Drive now, LOL.
its like that Fappening incident..
