[Q] Wifi fails whenever I connect Android - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using my Sony Xperia Z1s for this (on 4.4.4). I'm connected to a neighbor's wifi (with permission of course) on my PC via a Netgear wireless USB adaptor. I am attempting to use DroidCam as I don't have a proper webcam, so I can use my Sony as a webcam and skype on the desktop (Win7). The problem arises when I connect my android (via usb) to the desktop, as within a few minutes, the wifi will always fail (full signal bars, yellow exclamation triangle). Doesn't matter whether the android is in MTP mode or MSC mode, or whether or not debugging is enabled (though, it must be enabled for DroidCam to connect). It's as if the android's usb connection is interfering with the Netgear's usb connection. Why is this, and how can I attempt to fix this?
EDIT: Before you ask why I don't simply skype via the app, the wifi connection is not strong enough for my android, the Netgear produces a stronger connection on the desktop. I attempted to use USB Tunnel so I could connect the android to the PC and use the wifi signal that the Netgear is grabbing on my android, but..... again..... connection issues.

do you think the sx56 can ever connect to a wirelessnetork?

Do you think it's possible to have the sx56 connect to a actual wireless network to be able to surf the web and such?? maybe if you used the usb connection and put a linksys wireless usb card on the end or something? i dont know i am just curious ?
i'm a T-Mobile USA user, and i can go online an chat or surf or download... 24/7 for $19.00 a month!
someone also told me that they made SD-card bluetooth for it too.
didnt look into it yet tho.
2 kind of devices have an usb connector
1. usb peripheral
2. usb hosts (or what ever you want to call it)
1. are stuff like an external harddisk and a webcam and an xda
2. are computers laptops pc's mac's what ever
you cant connect 2 {1} devices like you cant connect your webcam to your usb harddisk even if the cable fit because there need to be a master
the xda is a peripheral which can connect to a pc
so you cant connect other peripheral's to it since 2 peripherals cant talk with eachother
so there is no way to connect to a wireless network through the pda? besides using the cradle and activesync?
you can of cause connect using VPN if it support over GPRS to a server which route you into a wireless lan
or if you really can get those bluetooth adaptors which work even though the sd slot is not sd-io because bluetooth support PPP so you could bluetooth to a computer which could route you into a wireles lan
No.
No wireless LAN.
No Bluetooth.
Period.
That's it.

[Q] cm7 reverse USB tether plus wifi tether to produce non Adhoc?

So, I'm running on the latest nightly of cm7 on my vibrant with a glitch kernel. What I want to do is share my wired connection with my laptop, phone, and ps3 without having a wireless router. The thought is to use reverse USB tethering to put the connection to my phone then use the wifi hotspot ability to share the connection with my ps3. I know the ps3 won't recognize Adhoc being produced by the computer, also it's impossible to receive wifi and broadcast it at the same time. So is it possible to do what I propose?

[Q] Use USB tethering and connect as LAN from another device possible?

OK so I have two android devices, a phone and a tablet. My tablet is the new NVIDIA SHIELD Tablet. I have a horrible old slow router, so gamestream doesn't work well. I was wondering if there was some way to use my phone as a router of sorts. My pc doesn't have wifi so I have to use USB tethering. Is there any way to use USB tethering on my phone, and connect to a LAN network via wifi on my table typo to my pc for game streaming, just like through a regular wifi modem? My phone is a Galaxy s4 on AT&T. Both android devices are rooted with stock roms.

Share the reverse tethered internet from a Pc to a Laptop via Hotspot

I wanted to ask if can you share the internet connection you reverse tethered to your android device from a PC to a Laptop.
