hi,
i have a samsung galaxy camera and win 10 laptop.
i would like to know how do i connect the win 10 laptop to wifi with the wifi data that i have stored in my android device.
thanks
Connect both devices to the same wifi and your win 10 laptop should detect the camera in network menu.
idk what you want to achieve doing that. Transfer photos? the camera has inbuilt sharing functionality like mail or just use a data cable.
Since you didn't specify any specific way you want to do this, here is what I would've done:
1. USB Tethering:
Using a usb cable, you can share your device's internet connection with the computer.
2. Wifi hotspot
You can share the internet of either wifi or mobile data using your device as a wifi hotspot.
3. Copying password from device
You never stated if you had root or not, so I assume you do. So just download a wifi password recovery app from play store, open it and copy the password from there.
If you need help on how to do the hotspot or tethering option, google is your friend

I Want to connect my HTC Wildfire S to PC for Access internet on my PC through android mobile phone. like Nokia connect via PC Suit. Can Any one give me appropriate answer.
I use a small free program on my desktop called 'Connectify' compatible with any WiFi device. It works by creating a WiFi hotspot from my wireless usb card to allow me to share my internet connection from desktop to devices. It is the most simple program to install even my not so tech savvy family members can understand it.
I have no knowledge on how to set up WiFi on your phone though, but a quick search on google on how to set up wifi on the wildfire s will net you many answers to that.
You can also install Connectify on your phones and laptops (optional) in order to share their internet connection. If this program isnt suitable I could help set up your WiFi if you have a wireless modem you could tell me the name of.

To share your mobile connection with your PC, you need to use an app called EasyTether. You can download the app here.
EasyTether shares your Android smartphone connection with your PC. This app allows you to tether your Android to a desktop or a notebook computer. EasyTether uses exactly the same data plan that is used for the on-phone Internet access like in the built-in browser or e-mail app or youtube application. No additional tethering fees.
Easytether just works - haven't seen any lags or disconnections yet.
I'm asking this question on BEHALF of MYSELF and OTHERS. Can you SHARE your LAPTOP or PC's connection with your android phone.
For example lets say i wanted to play a gameloft game but i need to download additional data through Wifi, is there a way for me to use my Laptop or Pc's connection through my phone so i can download the game for my phone.
If anyone has a solution to this question please make your answer VERY DETAILED
I am on a XPERIA X10, Please reply or answer THIS QUESTION
Advice:
I've Googled about this problem. I have data plan in my phone and no WiFi at home. Many people like me also use this way to get connection. But what they got were "FAILED". ONLY WAY = connect TO WiFi (can't say every game, but maybe 1% can use reverse tether method)

melvinchng Same here i dont have Wifi in my house, there certian games that wont download with my carrier network and insist on me downloading through wifi. I ALREADY know how to download GAMELOFT GAMES that require wifi only but it is very inconsistant and dodgy on my x10.
Theres a wifi signal on my laptop i can connect to the but the signal on android phones are so bad i just cant connect to the router.
If your pc has wifi(I know you don't have wifi in your house) you can download and use the app connectify for windows
If your pc has a working wifi card (with drivers installed of course), then you can share its connection via wifi. If you have windows 7, you can use "Connectify" or "Virtual Router". If you have windows xp and above (on a dell pc. Don't know if it works on others), then you can use "Dell Laptop to Hotspot Converter".
there is a guide on my device's forum about this here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1229558
for the step where it says "bridged local area connection and LG adaptor," you must find the equivalent of the lg adaptor that applies to your phone (if that makes sense). other than that, i think it should work.
What you are looking for is called "usb-internet pass-through" correct? Alot of custom roms already have it as a feature in the wifi setting, next to wifi hotspot. Im not familiar with your device or whether you are rooted but its pretty handy. Can also work as a wireless card, as in turn wifi setting on the phone and plug it into a desktop that doesnt have a wifi card and presto, wifi through your phone thats through a wireless router so its not eating up your data quota and much faster than the 3g on your phone.

That would be awesome, you could have a wifi router everywhere with you (as long as you don't forget to take the usb cable with you), just connect with the usb to a PC that has broadband, and then use the phone's wifi as a dongle.
I am currently in a situation that i would use something like that seeing that i have forgotten my dongle at home.
phone tether
There are a couple of different ways to tether your phone to your pc. One way is to use an app called PDA net, you can get your phone and computer setup through their website in about 2-3 minutes, super easy to use and you don't need to root your phone, the down side is unless you pay for the pro version all "https", secure sites, will only be accessible for a week. If you decide to root or have already rooted, you can download a number of different apps that give you the ability to use your phone as a hot spot without paying monthly to your provider.

=> use this app called FoxFi..its not on the google store..download it from internet..with this u can use the connection to tether via bluetooth in all devices..though, wi-fi routing works only in few..if it doesnt work..then first try this app to reverse tether(Reverse Tether build.2012.04.05.paid - torrents) and then use FoxFi..reply if it works or not..
AT&T detected my foxfi tethering and will now charge me for a 5g tethering package if I continue to use it. Greedy.... What does it matter if I tether? Bunch if nazis...

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
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.
