when connected to the internet via usb tethering, the computer is identifying it as a new network each time when plugged in. due to this i am not able to see the data usage on my network as the computer is considering it as a new network each time and the data usage shows 0. Please tell me the way to fix this issue, my pc is running on windows 11

:)

 

Windows does not update when connected to internet via usb tethering, although everything else is. Solution?

Here is what I am using:

Dell inspiron 7000 touch enabled laptop, x64, windows 10.
samsung tab E 9.6 inch
usb cable

After connecting the tab to the port via usb, I get the internet as soon as I check the enable usb tethering button. I can browse and download but cannot update the windows. It recognizes the connection in the information section but does not update the windows when I click update. I tried downloading the updates manually, which it successfully did, but the installation said the file was not compatible.

Any suggestions?

 

USB Internet tethering

Have to do the last one first. You knew the answer to your question when you posted, popular request at Microsoft site.



Up to the manufacturer? No. To be able to tether a phone a USB modem driver has to be installed as part of the USB cable driver. See a modem?



Safety of WiFi? It's pretty safe when your phone is creating the Wi/Fi connection.



Using the phone as a modem, USB tethering, is old technology. Using the phone to create a WiFi Hotspot for several devices is the new technology. Wouldn't want to tke a step back would we.

 

USB Tethering IS Available!

Looks like tethering is already possible on WP7...
