Usually, people use their phone as a tethering device for their PC. But for you it's a different.

Although it's possible to use a virtual router on the PC (assuming it has a wireless card, which PC usually don't have), the way 99,99% of the users do this is to NOT& use their PC, but link the phone to their wireless (WiFi) router.

As far as I know, practically all Samsung phones come with Android. But maybe you have one of there recently introduced Tizen phones?

Does Samsung make smartphones with Windows 7 or iOS or other OS'es? That's new to me. Can you provide a link?

Oohhhh, then Michael kossar, you may face difficulty at the time of connectivity, although I think if you search continuously, then you may find a solution.

No. That won't help.
Feb 10, 2015 5:12PM PST

I don't think the answers from Thomas are very helpful.

In fact, I think he's just teasing you. He only has 11 posts in these forums, and all are rather nonsense replies to your help requests.
