I just had a problem with my laptop being slow as fuck and can't get a good wifi connection

I discovered that you can use your android phone as a wifi adapter by connecting it to your pc and then toggling usb tethering through the internet settings in your phone

And then turning off the wifi in your pc

NOW MY CONNECTION IS SO FAST THAT I DON'T NEED TO STRUGGLE WITH DOWNLOADING FILES ANYMORE IN MY WEAK ASS LAPTOP

iPhone faggots can't do that this shit with their 1500$ piece of garbage that they got scammed for KEK

ANDROID IS THE GOAT, I KNEW MY GLAZING WAS JUSTIFIED

>brownoid thirdie would rather use his phone as a tethered USB wifi adapter instead of spending $11 on an trash-tier adapter that will still outperform a phone

This is a stupider comment than usual around here to start a thread. iPhone has hotspot capability too, same way you mention. Work on your job search for a change, anon.

Brother itoddlers can't even scroll properly. No line they cannot just flick amd inertia scroll. You tell them to scroll a couple hundred page PDF and they'll be there all day. When I was a field tech I would have to send manuals and shit to my personal phone from my work ishit just to scroll a 500 page VFD manual properly.

Yeah they're known for doing that

The phone acts as a wifi adapter. If you don't have a wifi signal, you can't connect to a hotspot in the first place.

it's a solution to a problem i don't have, furthermore you're wrong about iphones not providing usb tethering.
you stupid fucking brownoid monkey.

good for you anon, yes it indeed works that way. you dont even need a driver. this is a thing since android 4.4. i know my galaxy s2 could do that already. iphone faggots can do it but not out of the box. you need itunes (or perhaps the apple devices program?) for the necessary driver on the target pc. than you can do it. however, android still wins because it can share a mobile connection or wifi through usb. iphones cant share wifi through usb, only mobile. thanks for my ted talk.
