Connect your Phone – PC and Phone share single internet connection

Your phone and PC are able to share a single internet connection.   In many cases, only one internet cable runs to each desktop and it is not practical to run a second cable.

The  downside to this configuration is an additional cable running into the phone, and a brief loss of internet to the PC if the phone needs to rebooted for any reason.

 

 

  • Disconnect the network cable from your PC and connect to the ‘Internet’ jack on the back of your phone
  • Connect from the ‘PC’ jack on the phone to the ethernet connection on your PC
  • Yourphoneispoweredbythenetwork. It should boot up as soon as connected.
  • Rebooting yourphonemay cut the internet to your PC briefly
