Share internet via USB on Allview P3 AllDro

Instead of sharing the connection by creating a Wi-Fi connection, you can also use your Allview P3 AllDro's connection to connect a laptop or other device to the Internet via a USB cable.

Connecting via USB has its advantages, such as the fact that you won't need to create a password or enter it, which saves time.

It is also a more secure method, as you prevent someone from guessing the password to the Wi-Fi network and using your connection without your consent.

Connecting via USB also provides higher speed and avoids possible connection losses. In places with many Wi-Fi networks, they can interfere with each other by using the same frequency.

Finally, this method saves battery power, as the USB connection not only consumes less power, but also allows you to charge your P3 AllDro while using it as a modem.

1- First step:

The first thing you will need is a USB cable that allows data connection, use the microUSB 2.0 cable that comes with your Allview P3 AllDro from the factory, if you do not have it available try another cable but keep in mind that there are cables that only serve to charge the battery and do not transmit data.

Connect the cable to the P3 AllDro and to the computer, laptop or device to which you want to share the connection.

Connect via USB cable

2- Second step:

Follow the steps of this tutorial up to step 6, if you have connected the cable and this cable allows data transmission, the "USB tethering" option will be enabled.

Press the button to the right of "USB tethering" to activate the shared connection via USB cable and you will be able to start using the internet connection on the other device.
