My laptop's internal wireless chip is busted (Extremely limited range, like router must within 3 foot range foot) and until I get a usb wifi adapter, I was thinking of using my phone to connect to the wifi.
When I activate mobile hotspot onto my phone, and by putting it right next to my laptop, I can obtain a wifi signal and be able to access the internet. However, my phone is using mobile data to do so. I was wondering if it is possible (and if so, how) that I can have the wifi hotspot up on my phone so my laptop can connect to it, but the phone is still connected to the wifi, using that to give my laptop a wifi connection, instead of mobile data.
I would be fine using an Ethernet cable at home during, but I am not able to do so when I am at college. I already tried usb and Bluetooth tethering.
