Ok let me try to explain.
I DON'T want to use my 4g to do USB tendering. What I want is while my phone is connected to my home wifi I want to use that wifi that is on my phone and connect it to my laptop via USB tedering.
Reason being, my laptops wifi is messed up but not the lan. I don't want to use all my phone data so I want to grab the home Internet with my phone and use my phone as a direct line to my laptop without using 4g.
Hopefully I didn't confuse anyone. Does anyone know if there is a tool like that somewhere.

if you enable the usb tethering, wifi will be turned off, the only way is to use lan cable. connect your laptop to your wifi modem with lan cable, it has at least one lan port.

Maybe this is the incorrect forum, but I am looking for a way to share a wifi connection through a wifi connection. I am playing out tomorrow for vacation and would like to use the inflight wifi. However, I don't want to pay for my computer, my phone, and my wife's computer. Is there an app for Android that could connect to the inflight wifi and then share that connect via wifi (or maybe BlueTooth?) to our computers. Or maybe one of our computers (OS X or Windows 7) to connect via wifi and then share out that wifi?
Your Windows PC should be your safest bet:

Sharing Internet via wifi
i connected my blackberry bold 9780 to my laptop and i use it as a modem. i then used virtual router to share the 3G connection to my motorola xoom wifi. i can go online using google chrome just fine but all the other other apps, whether default or downloaded, refuse to connect online. im wondering if it's an adapter setting that i need to adjust or something. p,lease help. i am very frustrated at not bein able to use internet depending apps. it breaks my heart.
Is it possible to share PC internet connection on my X10Mini via USB cable, because I don't have WiFi router. I saw something with Netfilter is this about that kind of tethering? Thanks.
why dont you try easytether from the market? you have to use the usb cable for it to work.
Or barnacle wifi tether and use your wifi from your phone.
PS:you are using your phone as a modem right?
You misunderstood me obviously, I want to use Internet connection from PC on my mobile phone because I can't connect to my PC beacuse I don't have WiFi router, so is it possible to share the internet connection from my PC to my mobile phone via USB cable
I myself googled a lot to discover the method you are saying. but its little bit complicated
for example
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538222
and it is called reverse-tethering
My method i use is to have wifi. share the modem or network from the windows pc and connect the phone via wifi and then browse the internet.
other than that, mmmm.... i dont know.
Alright, did the usual searches and have the usual answers wich don't seem to pertain to what i'm doing.
I have one static connection allowed to wifi router. I wish to use phone to share this connection with more than one device not using mobile data but the broadband connection.
Basically connect phone to broadband wifi. Have devices connect to phone to share wifi.
Again, to prevent any confusion: I do not want to share mobile connection on phone. I wish to share wifi connection with other devices from phone. ie. I have only one connection allowed to router and I wish to use phone to share that connection with PC and PS3.
Sorry for redundancy in stating this but people seem to miss the point or not read and suggest applications like Barnacle wich only share mobile internet or USB tethering wich only works for PC.
Well from what I understand Wi-Fi must be off on phone in order to create the Wi-Fi signal on the phone so this may be impossible

I know exactly what you are saying, and I am pretty sure it is impossible. I currently have wi-fi service where I have to log in, with only 1 device allowed log in at a time. When you turn on the wi-fi hotspot on your phone, it automatically turns your wi-fi off. You can only use the hotspot feature using your data connection over 3g or 4g. I have tried everything. If you are in the same situation, where you can only log one device on the internet connection, you may want to try spoofing your IP. Change the IP on the other devices to the IP on your phone. This may allow you to log the other devices in as well (so I have read). That may be your only option.
Yeah looks like Im going to connect PC and use an ethernet cable with connection sharing to get PS3 to work. Phone will have to use mobile data unless PC and PS3 arent being used.
Or phone gets wifi and USB tethered to pc and then connection shared (not sure this will work).
sharing wifi connection
I have done this using a Buffalo WLI-TX4-G54HP ethernet converter. You connect to the wireless source (WAP) then it acts like a router and allows you to plug devices into it, has four ports but you could use a switch if more are needed. Each device aquires an IP from the converter and is hidden to the WAP, looks like one device is connected. Pretty easy to setup. Check it out.
i hope i can explain myself good enough please let me know if you have any questions..
my android phone (galaxy s3 i9300) is connected to my router's wifi, just like anybody else if they have a router that supports wifi.. all other smartphones i have are connected to it.
now i have a computer but i can't run a cable to it from the router.
i just want to know if there's any way i share the wifi connection i'm connected to on my phone to the computer using USB cable
it's just like using regular tethering but instead of using the mobile's network to tether a wifi connection, i want to use the wifi connection to tether my pc?
i have a rooted device, all ready to go, is there an app or something i need to install on my pc..anything please help
Spacedesk is a desktop app that allow to make your device into another monitor & control mouse
Need a wifi point near my desktop pc (for lower latency), so i wanted to use my phone in usb tethering since wifi hotspot don't work / stop working after some times on pc with power management setting off (when i try to connect, it just do nothing and still say "Secured" but not "Connected")
So i want my phone to redirect everything from the wifi hotspot, to the usb tethering and the same thing in the opposite way, i know i can use proxy server, but i don't know how to configure it to make it work with spacedesk.
Any idea?
spacedesk port is 28252
