Hi friends,

I want to use my broadband connection which is working in my PC in my android mobile. One option which I know is to switch over to wifi modem or to wifi adopter.

Is there any other way to do it for my moto e which is not routed, I mean through any software or usb ?

Regards

simplest way is to buy a wifi dongle and make your PC a access point. but that would be counter productive as you have to keep your PC on. USB reverse tethering would require root access.

I recommend buying a cheap wifi router. you should be able to get new one <Rs. 700 or you can go for a second hand one.

I guess you need to take authorization from the network guy in office.

do you use a Laptop or PC? I see that your mentioned PC in the title but still confirming.

If you can root the device then you can use reverse USB debugging. else you need to buy a Wifi Dongle and connect it to your PC and make it a hotsopt. these are the only two options you have.

EDIT: IF you are using a laptop then you can make your laptop as a hotspot. my colleagues use this method to browse the internet in my office. using office wifi to browse on mobile is banned in my office :p

Looks good. has good user rating too. Before ordering, just check the steps involved in creating a AP using a dongle, Just be sure you understand the steps involved.

AP - Access Point. its necessary that you know how to create/configure access point using the dongle on your PC.

to create AP using dongle on desktop one must have admin rights on that pc & usually the company domain account is a restricted account.

Thanks but I have checked the administrative rights of the PC and they are with individual user in our off.

So kindly suggest me a cheap Wifi adopter for the same?????

Tethering is the ability to browse on your PC using the 3G/2G connectivity of your Android mobile, and Android reverse tethering is the reverse of that: i.e surfing on your phone using your PC's internet. While this can be achieved using a portable WiFi hotspot, in this case no WiFi or 3G connection is required but rooting of android device required.
the steps wont work as your phone is not rooted. that's the reason we give you suggestions for creating AP using a dongle. I see that you have also created a "Want to buy" thread for a dongle.
