I have a laptop with internet getting from wifi.
I want to provide internet to my android mobile which is connected by USB cable.
I know i can create a wifi hotspot on my laptop using create_ap program can connect. If i do that i miss internet on my laptop and the whole purpose is lost. Because my wifi in laptop does not allow simulataneous wifi and ap.
Any help in this regard is appreciated
If your android support USB ethernet (rndis), you can check this post. Read k.Cyborg's answer.
That will establish virtual ethernet via USB between phone and laptop.
On laptop you can use script linux-router to easily server dhcp and nat forward.
