Trying to connect a Samsung Smart TV model UE48JU6445 to my PC via Ethernet port for internet. The PC internet is connected via USB tethering on my phone. It's using PDANet and the computer is running on Windows 10.

We've tried to use the Ethernet cable and a wireless adapter D-Link, but nothing so far has worked. We want to try anything to get this to work. We don't have a router or anything like that. Phone----->PC----->TV (connection we want).

By doing ipconfig /all, this is what was brought up:

Hello, thank you for answering!

We right clicked on properties on PDANet in Networking and Sharing Center, went to Sharing Tab, and checked the box that allowed sharing to the Ethernet adapter (that we labeled TV). But it says "no network access" and "unidentified network". Is that what you meant by sharing?

 
The magic tool is, INTERNET SHARING, as already mentioned. Lots of info on the Web how to accomplish that, even step-by-step, am 100% sure. You may have to setup an ADHOC network between your PC and TV using static addressing and a CROSSOVER CAT5 cable, but that last part am not 100% sure, it's been a while, GOOGLE.

Hello.
We've tried multiple times to use ICS. We've enabled sharing between the devices, bridged connections, tried setting the ip addresses ourselves, tried wirelessly connecting, been googling for two days now and about to give up. Can't connect the TV to anything. It shows up in Network and Sharing Center as unidentified and any attempt to connect it to the PC ends in failure. We tried to ad hoc but it didn't come up at all. We don't have a crossover cat5 cable, we're using a standard cat5e advent ethernet cable.

We've tried setting the ip address' manually on the TV as well, but it keeps coming back with nothing. I've posted two pictures I took trying different things. One is what the TV says when it tries to connect, and the other is of when I try to set up a new network for it where there is no ad hoc option. I've tried every option on there and none of them work. I could always try a crossover cable if you think that would be a good option to try.

UPDATE: went out and bought a Nikkai connect Cat 6 Crossover Cable and still nothing. We have a phone tethering internet to the PC and all we want is a way to tether the TV to the PC for the internet. But so far we've tried ethernet cables, crossover cables, ICS, wireless, everything but actually getting a router (which we don't want to do).

Any help or suggestions or ideas is greatly appreciated, and even if we've already tried it, if anyone knows a way to explain it to us we'll try it again.

Thanks.
