    Using both Hotspot and WiFi


    Hey guys altough i just created my account i have been using ten forums for the past 3 years i love this page.

    This is the first time in my life i cant find an answer to something and i think its because its impossible.
    So here it is, i am stuck in a hotel with bad wifi and i want to use my phones 4g which i can connect to my pc with either usb/bluetooth/wifi and the hotels wifi at the same time, i want to set it so only video games i choose like World of Warcraft and League of Legends use my phones 4g connection and all other apps like discord use the hotels wifi. Is this even possible if so how?

    From my testing i found out that playing WoW uses less than 10mb an hour but discord absolutely eats up all my data. What i have been doing for the past couple of days is having my tablet connected to wifi and using discord from there and using my phone with a cable to transfer data to pc so i can game, i dont want to do this because discord app is sh*t and also there is a new feature in discord where we can use cameras in servers but only works on the desktop app.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and sorry if am posting in the wrong section i am new to this forum stuff.

    :)

    Using both Hotspot and WiFi

    Windows 10 wifi not turning on Acer Aspire laptop

    In order to get the list of available wireless networks, you have to:

    1. Switch on Connect to suggested open hotspots (see the screenshot in question);
    2. Click on Wifi icon in the right corner. Now you have your networks back.

    After that the parameter from Step 1 can be turned off, networks will be listed normally after restarting Wifi.

    P.S. I feel rather stupid at the moment. I thought that open hotspots are passwordless hotspots and so are presumably not very safe. So of course I've turned that off during installation.
    Really hard to see any logic in this case.
