[Q] Tethering WIFI connection via USB

Hi,
I am trying to share my WIFI connection over USB to my PC with the built-in tethering function but it is not working...
Sounds weird because if I disable my wifi on my Atrix, my phone share my 3g connection to my PC with usb tethering without any issue but once I enable my wifi and connect to my AP, I am no longer able to share anything...
When my phone is connected to wifi and USB tethering enabled, the only thing I can ping is my localhost (lol) and my gateway wich is my cell phone.
Anyone has an idea why? And if possible to have a workaround without having to install anything on my PC?
Thanks

Does it NEED to be usb tether? You can just download "barnacle" on your phone and make it a wifi hot spot for free.

The 2.3.3 update provides the following that are fully functional:
USB Tethering - allows you to attach a single device via USB to allow it to access the Internet through your X10's WiFi or 3G data connection
Portable WiFi Hotspot - allows other WiFi-enabled devices to attach to your X10 via WiFi to allow them to access the Internet through your X10's 3G data connection
Go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Tethering & Portable Hotspot to get to and set up those features.
For USB tethering, you'll need either a WiFi or 3G data connection available. For the portable WiFi hotspot, you need a 3G data connection available and the WiFi hardware must be on as well (since your X10 will become a WiFi router).
They work quite well, and they easily replace what we used to need 3rd-party apps for in the past.

did you set your device to discoverable?
well BT Tether is also used to share a network basically. just like wifi tether or usb tether.
configure your hotspot, set device to discoverable and pair other device to it.

How do i get my phone to show on its own hotspot network?

I just bought a chromecast and I'm trying to figure out if I can get my GNexus to host the hotspot and be the chromecast remote.
In more detail:
I do not have internet from a cable/satellite company. The only internet connection I have is through my cellphone hotspot.
Chromecast will be connected to the internet through my cellphone hotspot (SSID: AndroidAP).
When my cellphone has the hotspot running it does not show up on its own network (AndroidAP).
I need the phone to show up on the network (AndroidAP) so that I can see the chromcast and use the phone as a remote.
Is this even possible?
Really? No one?
Is it possible?
I'd be very curious to know if this is possible or not. I found this thread because I'm wanting to do the very same thing. I still have unlimited data through vzw so this would be terrific if there was a way. The only thing is that the wifi turns off when the hotspot is turned on (at least on mine) so there would have to be a way to get it to connect to its own hotspot without making mobile data shut off.
Same thing needed Badly here @@
I also want to connect my moto e to it's own hotspot for remote control my tablet using my phone as mouse(specifically) and keyboard/joystick.
(I know keyboard and joystick can be possible without doing that but MOUSE can't)
Hellllllllpppppppp ......
1.5 years later and there's still no way to do this. Not only that this is the only page on the internet about it.
The de thread here
I want to use my phone WiFi network to connect my PC to it and then use the phone to remotly control keyboard and mouse on my PC over WiFi, but I just can not connect my phone to it's own WiFi network. :/
One thing I could do is using a WiFi extender to connect both devices to, but then I couln't get the devices connected to internet since they're connected to a "no-internet" WiFi extender network.
Still nothing? I need it to use my security camera which needs internet connection. I also need to be able to view it on my phone using the camera app but the devices have to be on the same network. Sux that i can't do this.

[Q] Connect Phone to Tablet

Since Bluetooth Tethering is not available for connecting Phone to Tablet when WiFi is not available, how do I do it?
There are still many places without WiFi and with Bluetooth Tethering, I was able to use my WiFi only tablet.
So since I am told only a few use Bluetooth for Tethering, how do I make contact with my Tablet when I am in my car or at a place that does not offer WiFi?
I need a way to connect directly between these devices, is there a method to do this with some sort of cable connection?

You didn't elaborate in sufficient detail to give us a clear idea of why, when and how you wish to connect. But you have four options to investigate. Wifi, data, USB and bluetooth.

Can't you just use WiFi Tethering? Which tablet is it? What exactly are you trying to achieve?
I will try and explain: I am in my car and want to tether to my WiFi tablet. While in the car, I do not have a WiFi connection and have previously used Bluetooth Tethering to accomplish this connection. Since the Bluetooth tethering is not available, how do I make contact with the tablet when there is no WiFi?

Turn your phone into a WiFi hotspot. Use the WiFi tethering on your s5. You will then see the WiFi network on your tablet and you can connect to it.
