Well thats a good question. I thought i did haha. I was told by all mighty google that if it says no next to hostnetwork supported, you cant do much. But i dont believ yhe google. The reason im doing this is to test my tablet. I need to see if its a bad nic or software. I did try mobile hotspot and it worked for a bit then my tablet loat connectivity.
