No option for usb tethering

[warpigs90300]

As the title says, I have no option to tether my phone to a computer using USB. I have the options for Bluetooth Tethering and Mobile Hotspot, but there is no option for USB Tethering like there should be.

Hi warpigs90300,

What phone make and model do you have? Most important, what ANDROD VERSION do you have on board? [Go into:- Settings - General - ABOUT DEVICE. Scrole down to official Device Name, Model Number & ANDROID VERSION. [If not on Android, I cannot help.]

My Samsung is still on old Android 6.0.1; with 'USB Tethering' under Network connections - 'Tethering & Mobile Hotspots'. [I use USB Tethering for all home internet, without any problems].

This is a phone software issue, not a 'Boost service issue'. So, if cannot be sorted within Boost Community, suggest you phone Tech Support of phone Maker; or shop where purchased.

Regards, Shalama.

In addition to my comments of 11/05/19, there could be a problem with your USB connections [either end] pluged into your computer & phone.  IF only a 'USB power connection', then there will be no internet transfer to your computer's USB 2 or 3 input.

Also, ensure your mobile Data is on BEFORE plugging into computer.If your ' Tethering & Mobile Hotspots' has a ghost image saying 'USB Tethering', but you cannot get box to tick, it is probably a USB cable problem. So, try an alternative connection. If you run a Samsung, thier 'phone plug in' is not the standard mini USB; slightly different size. 

Regards, Shalama.
