  1. Tethering an old Android phone to Windows 11 through USB or Ethernet adaptor


    I have an old Android phone, a Galaxy A01, that I want to tether to my Windows 11 computer through USB. I have been able to unlock the phone and put it into developer mode. I bought an USB C to ethernet adaptor but have not been able to get that to work either. The phone does not have a SIM card.

    :)

    reverse tethering on usb port for android on win10


    Well easier way i S thru USB Ethernet adaptor directly in the phone... Works but the phone doesn't seem to know it has internet... Now that I have internet on the phone, is there a way to make a hidden hotspot? Seems impossible on win 10... Maybe is it on Android?

    USB tethering SP3 Win10 Android 4.4.2

    Hi,

    You might be experiencing this issue because your Surface is not getting the correct network configuration such as IP address from your phone. To help us identify the cause of this problem, we would like to know the following information:

    • Do you only experience this issue on your Surface? Are you able to tether your Android phone to other devices?
    • Do you receive any error messages when connecting to your phone? If yes, what is the exact error message?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you run the Network troubleshooter after connecting your Surface to your phone. The Network troubleshooter can help diagnose and fix common connection problems. Here's how:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Identify and repair network problems, and then select
      Identify and repair network problems from the list of results.
    • Follow the steps in the troubleshooter and see if that fixes the problem.

    Keep us updated on the status of the issue, and we will be glad to assist you further.
