Easy Tether to Samsung Smart TV? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hello; I've got a Series 6500 Samsung Smart TV, and I generally use my Note 3 for internet at my house, (as do my wife and daughter with their phones). we have a legacy plan, which has unlimited data, so that's not an issue. We live in the Mtns of Puerto Rico, and not even DSL works out here. I would like to be able to use my easy tether to connect my Smart TV, to my phone, using a program like Easy Tether... it has served me well, for the computer; I'd just like to use the Smart TV, to its' potential.
Any networking gurus who can figure this out, would have my gratitude! I've been searching what seems to be "everywhere!", and I am sorry if this is not the correct forum.

Is your note 3 rooted? If so I'd switch to using a WiFi tether app of some sort. That would simplify a lot for you. As for using an app like easy tether that uses a direct connection on your TV, depends on the USB capabilities of your TV. I doubt your TV has the necessary software and/driver support to handle it. The USB on the TV isn't like USB on the computer. Most TV's have a specific type/model of network USB adaptor they support. Unlike computers that are capable of using any.

Tether ps2

Ok here is a question my brother asked me so here it is " can you tether a ps2 and a nintendo ds " so can you tether them
Droid Eris
Plainjane1 with ota 2.1
and evil Eris 2.0.1
Tether them to the Eris?
You can wireless tether the Nintendo DS if you are a rooted user. You cannot tether to the PS2 unless there is a wireless adaptor for the PS2 that I don't know about.
Oh god I never even thought about tethering a DS... yesssssssssssssssssssss
no.
the ds (either one of the 3 iterations) do NOT support ad-hoc networking.
the ps2 does. but you'll need to hook it up a certain way.
first you need a laptop (or any computer, laptops just make it all portable) and a "CAT 5E Crossover Cable" radioshack has them,... I have not had much luck looking anywhere else. if I remember it was like 13 bucks for a 9 footer or something)
1. either plug your phone into your pc for wired tethering, or just use wifi tethering
2. make sure you have a solid connection.
3. plug the crossover cable into your pc's ethernet port and then into your PS2's
4. go into network/connection settings, and go to change adapter settings
5. bridge your phone's connection to your LAN port.
you now have internet on your PS2
I used to do this when I didnt have a long enough cable for the 360 that was in the other room. just plug in my laptop, get it on wifi, and bridge. no need to buy that ridiculously priced add-on.
now, if you have an extra router around, you MIGHT MIGHT MIGHT be able to actually plug that crossover cable from your computer into the router as if it were any other internet connection, then just proceed to set up the router as usual. you might be able to put out a wifi connection for the DS. it shouldn't be an ad-hoc network that way, so the DS MIGHT recognize it. I have never tried it myself.
my biggest bum about it all is that I hae a zune pass, the unlimited music for a monthly fee deal? I was so hoping i could just turn on wifi tethering and hook up my zune with some nonstop internet downloading. sadly, it was never meant to be.
Well no real need for a crossover cable just bridge and set it to auto ip and dns xp and higher will split the up for you and share the wifi. I do this for Skype and netflixs on my ps3.also works on 360. Hope this helped a bit...poor geeks wifi trick when on the road or at home lol

[Q] Thunderbolt with Cradlepoint MBR1200(router)

Is there a way to tether the Thunderbolt with the MBR1200 or any type of Cradlepoint router? I saw on Cradlepoint's forums the Incredible and Blackberries were not officially supported but would work and that almost all Android devices should work as well.
Why not root and use a wireless tether app? That way you don't need a router
I am rooted and have the wireless tether app. I was hoping to be able to use my TB to connect my xbox to live without having to use internet connection sharing on my pc.
Another option would be to get a WiFi antenna for your xbox.

Trying to hook up to evo here as well.
I know it's ndis device just like the mogul and ps2 were. I don't know why they are able to but the evo and the sister models aren't working on it. Specially since evo has been out a year. if they need a ata diagnostic to see the activation lines I'd be more then willling to do one and copy the info to them.
HTC Thunderbolt w/ Cradlepoint MBR1200
I own a Cradlepoint MBR 1200 and was thinking about purchasing an HTC Thunderbolt to connect to this router so I could have unlimited 4G data. Is it possible to do this. I have not been able to get a clear answer.
I don't have 4G, but I will try to hook my T-bolt up to my MBR1000 later today and let you know what happens.
Subscribed. I have one of these at work that I have been working with. When connected to USB it cannot obtain an connection. It's like you need to edit modem settings or something. Of course if you back fed it into a PC in the WAN port you might be able to set up an outgoing connection.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I used Internet connection sharing on a pc and plugged the Ethernet cable into the wan port and it worked that way. I also bought a cheap wireless bridge and connected my Thunderbolt to it using the rooted wireless tether app so that I wouldn't have to have a computer always on to use the Thunderbolt's connection. It does seem that the problem with connecting it does have to do with the MBR not recognizing it but the MBR doesn't seem to recognize it is even plugged in, I read on Cradlepoint's site how to connect a Incredible to the router, but the Thunderbolt does not have the same connection choice as the Incredible does. If someone could figure out the difference between the connection types it doesn't seem like it would be that hard to make a app for this http://blog.cradlepoint.com/an-android-powered-cradlepoint-router.
I used the built-in wired tethering and it didn't work...yet...
When i get some more free time I'll try something like Easy Tether.
I'll see if I can find anything about modem settings as well...

Xbox wifi adapter

I'm not sure if this has been discussed or not, but is it possible? I've got an older model Xbox 360 without a wifi adapter, and no internet at home, so could the Xbox be tricked into tethering thinking its a wiring adapter? Maybe a longshot, but just wondering if it's possible

So you want to tether your android phone to your xbox and use 3G? Just to let you know internet over a cell phone can have quite a bit of latency due to longer than normal ping times. This will make online games lag even if the speed of the connection is adequate.
Without wifi your xbox only has an ethernet jack to connect to the internet, I'm not sure how you plan to connect a phone to it. The wifi adapter Microsoft sells is USB, but chances are the console only recognizes its specific hardware ID and denies all other wifi adapters since you cannot use other adapters with it.
Even if you got something working, like I said internet over a cell phone is not good for gaming.
Ill just tether to my laptop to my phone, then it to my Xbox.
I just thought that the less steps the better. -.-

[Q] tether cable for Galaxy Tab 2

Hello, I have a HTC Rezound and Verizon is my carrier. I have unlimited data and use PDAnet to tether via cable to my laptop. I got a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7in and have tried to tether it to the phone with PDAnets BT setting. The PDAnet instructions for this say to download Foxfi along with PDAnet tablet. After doing so I was able to use the BT to tether the 2 devices once. After that it appears Verizon was able to detect the tether and I received a message on my phone to dial an 800 number to activate the wifi on my phone. My question is....if I get a micro usb to mini usb adapter can I use my charging cable for the Tab 2 to tether my phone to the tablet and use the usb tether mode to connect the 2 devices? Thanks

I use Bluetooth Auto Tethering from Refluxa on the market. When you sync via bluetooth it will tether. no cable and bluetooth uses little battery, but it slower than wifi with speed.
what about detection?

I can play around and install the app but my question is....will Verizon detect it and block further use? I would root the phone but I'm apprehensive about what I'm reading. The rezound doesn't seem to be as easy to root as other phones and I don't know anyone tech savy enough to trust with the job. Its my only means of communication and I don't need a brick.

I dont think they will notice but maybe some else here would know. You use bluetooth tether on the phone and bluetooth autoconnect on the ipad. I think you need tp be rooted. Rooting a rezound is not as dificult as it sounds. I would not use a paperclip or hard wire. Also on jellybean it does not work, Bluetooth stack is broken.

Root, and get android wireless tether. I tether constantly to laptop, gtab 2, nook color, and on Christmas all of my nieces, and nephews ijunk. Never been hassled about it. Good luck..

Being apprehensive about rooting is really a bad excuse. Until you do, you'll just have to deal with VZW's limitations.
You also might consider this: Verizon can no longer charge for tethering
Welcome to XDA btw

That is only for the non-unlimited data folks

Actually it is for everyone. Verizon can themselves still charge for it, but they can't restrict anyone from tethering through an app. If they do so, they are breaking the law, because of the access rules placed on the band they operate LTE on.
While I might be wrong, I suspect if you are using the usb connection instead of the wireless, you will hear nothing from Verizon. They are moslty concerned with you being a hotspot particularly for others.

[Q] using multiple galaxy series as phones to tether without removing sims

We have 3 note 3 phones and instead of going down the broadband line i was wondering if there was a router that could utlilise the tethering on the phones so that we can always have our tv, wireless printer, wireless kettle connected when anyone is home.
I thought the best way would be via bluetooth? Im sure there must be some sort of solution without having to take out the simcard and render the phne useless!!
its not exclusive to note 3's but at £35*3 i am loathe to get a broadband connection as it seems pointless!
Any help appreciated
the 3 dongles are useless as they dont do unlimited data
Any other solution would be great!
