What is your usage scenario?
If you want to copy your shared files from PC(or NAS) to your phone through LAN, you can setup shared folder on the PC(or NAS) and use any file management application on your phone to connect to it.
If you want to use your PC to view the contents on your phone, you can setup a HTTP share on your phone and browse and manage the contents on your PC browser. You may install an application named AirDroid on your phone.
Both of these two scenarios are based on LAN and do not need to connect usb cable.

No sir i want to use the ethernet adapter ...and moreover would like to keep my laptop out of the picture...
Direct broadband internet through the router as an alternative for my wifi...
I've seen that working on tablets ...
Thanks for the reply thougb..

[Q] Can you access webtop from a laptop? Also tethering question.

The questions are:
1. Can I access webtop on my laptop if I connect to the phone via usb or bluetooth?
2. Can I tether my computer to the phone via the bluetooth or usb cable?
This might seems redundant but I dont seem to find the answer to this. Can you access webtop via a laptop when you connect the phone with an usb cable? The reason I ask is because sometimes I would like to browse the net while Im at work and that would be the easiest way to actually do using the laptop screen and a external mouse/keyboard. I dont really want to just buy a monitor to take to the office.
Also, is my understanding that the atrix also works like a hotspot that will provide wifi access via the phone data connection. While that is great for most of the times that will not work when I am working with a virtual computer and I dont want to share the main pc connection. With my blackberry I just use the usb connection to tether the virtual pc and that way whatever internet use I do on the virtual computer does not flow via the corporate network.

1.) Maybe the "Motorola Phone Portal" app that came on the phone would work for what you want?.
2.) yes and yes. For wifi or bt use the "Wifi Tether" app, formerly "Wireless Tether". For USB use the "Wired Tether" app. You can find both with a quick google search, not in the market.
It dont seems that the motorola phone portal will do what I want which is using the laptop to browse the phone browser. I hate to tether specially since it seems AT&T is cracking on that but it seems is the only way to use my phone to browse the net on a larger screen. Eihter that or buying another monitor....
If you use the above apps you will not get caught tethering, I speak from experience. It's the custom APNs that are likely to get you in trouble.

Any reverse tethering/internet passthrough app for the SGS2??!

I have tried the reverse tether app on GP by jasongong and it gives me a (Kernel not supported error) on two different ROMs (spike pure ICS and resurrection remix 2). There is another reverse tethering application on the market but its paid.
I cannot possibly imagine that such a basic functionality is not available by default let alone so rare in the GP. I just need to be able to share a LAN connection through a USB cable... is there anyway or any app to do that?
when you say reverse tethering, do you mean use your pcs internet connection??
if so then sure ya just connect ya wifi to the pc, or should i say router.
There is a program you can get for the pc, called VIRTUAL ROUTER or CONNECTIFY, both of which let you turn your pc into an internet hotspot providing you have wifi, this is how i connect my 360 to get around the firewall issues for online gaming.
Hope they may help you.
I am doing this to get internet at work. Wifi is protected by a password that I cannot know. So I need to get my PC's LAN internet connection on my phone via USB. HTC has a beautiful utility for that. I don't understand why samsung doesn't have this simple functionality... :S

Hello guys. Is it possible to use your phone as a router of sort ? Like I have cable internet going in my pc and I want to share that with my laptop in the other room. I tried pluging my phone with usb and enabling usb tethering and the laptop can connect but it shows "No internet acces" Is this even how it should be done or it's not possible to do such thing ?

PC Internet connection on Android Phone.

I want to use my computer's broadband internet connection by usb cable on my MOTO E2 (2015) 3G VARIANT, using what is technically called Reverse Tethering.
I am running a PC having these: Windows 7 (32 bit)
RAM= 1GB
HD= 1TB
PC Internet Connection: Broadband (Direct Cable, NO ROUTER)
I am using a device with : Android Lollipop 5.1
NOT ROOTED
NOTE: I have used the app named 'Reverse Tethering NoRoot Free' by Florian Draschbacher available on the Playstore.
I can have an internet connection on my phone (though for only 10 minutes 3 times only) but the connection enables for some apps only. Not for most of the apps except browsers.
Suggest methods requiring no root.
Please suggest some way of enabling full internet connection on the device using my PC broadband connection.

you not only need an OTG cable, but also a USB Ethernet adapter to do this. Join the ethernet cable to the USB ethernet adapter and the other end of the USB ethernet adapter to OTG cable and the end of OTG cable to your phone. This way u can have internet access directly to ur phone and yes this doesnt reuire any app. Also the USB ethernet adapter can be bought online on amazon. I hope this helps.

You actually don't need to use a cable or have root. Try Connectify! I've been using it for quite a while to bypass some horrid network restrictions. http://www.connectify.me/

Help sharing Dongle internet from laptop to Redmi Note3

Hi,
I have connected laptop to internet using dongle. Now, I want to share the laptop internet with my Android and Windows mobile by making my laptop as hotspot. To do this, I followed online tutorial for this.
http://www.instructables.com/id/How-to-set-up-a-wireless-hotspot-From-WiFi-Windows/
It is nothing but executing following commands from cmd (Run as Admin):
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=myhotspot key=password
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
Then new network Adaptor by name "myhotspot" is created. Now, I right click on my dongle adaptor and select Properties. In the Sharing Tab, I checked the checkboxes and select "myhotspot" in the dropdown.
Now, when I connect to "myhotspot" on my Redmi Note3, it is connected but internet is not working on the mobile.
Can someone please guide me in troubleshooting the issue?
Or let me know the alternate way of doing it.
Also, please let me know if any other information or clarification is required from my side.
usually you will need two wireless dongles, one for the laptop internet (or connect it with wired lan connection) and one for the Access Point.
if you have two wifi adapters then perhaps your issue is somewhere with DNS getting assigned the wrong ip, I suggest you buy/use a router for hotspots, since using a normal wifi adapter will be slow and have limited range.
Thanks oxyg for the reply. I guess the issue is not clear. I have connected the following Vodafone dongle to laptop to connect to Internet.

Download connectify And setup the hotspot!
P.S-its a paid app!
Thanks NVDX11 for the reply. I know about connectify, however, it is paid app (as you also mentioned). Please help me with the free method to share dongle internet.
If you can live with using it over USB, you can get the Mi PC suite, that can get the RN3 to get it's internet from the pc it's connected to.
Hmm......that can be the solution but needs phone to be connected to laptop always......can the laptop internet be shared wirelessly to redmi note3?
is it not possible?

Hey, you can use mHotSpot to share the internet from your USB dongle to Wireless,
Ive been using that for quite sometime now, but one disadvantage is that the range that you will get from a Laptop Wifi card would be very less and would work only in a short range.
