Share ethernet connection to iphone with no Wi-Fi?

I'm in my dorm room at school and I don't have a Wi-Fi connection to my laptop, I have it plugged in to an ethernet cable and have tried sharing that connection to my iphone but it usually only works if my laptop also has a Wi-Fi signal. I was wondering if there was anyway to get Wi-Fi on my phone when I don't have Wi-Fi on my laptop, either through ethernet or bluetooth or whatever.

Ethernet is only for computers. Cellphones do not share the Ethernet because they don't have a port. I don't fully understand your question. But to share files from laptop to phone requires a Wireless internet connection to your phone as well.

I have a HP pavilion dv6000 and recently i bought a new internet plan of max speed of 120Mbps but when i connect the ethernet cable from my modem the speed is (speedtest.net) around 5 mb also on Wi-Fi i get 20 mbs.

  • If you have an iPhone, do you get internet connection without connection? I see people at school and stuff with iphones and they are on facebook, and google, and etc… How do you do that? Does it automatically come with the phone, or is it extra to get connection when you don't have any…
