<p>You want to verify that you are connected to your Android hotspot.
Android tether is a router that will stand up a subnet of <code>192.168.43.0/24</code> for wifi hotspot,
and <code>192.168.42.0/24</code> for usb tether.</p>
<ul>
<li>On linux open a terminal and type <code>ip addr</code></li>
<li>
<p>on Windows open a <code>cmd</code> console and type <code>ipconfig</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>If tethering via wifi hotspot you should see an ipv4 address of <code>192.168.43.XX</code></p>
</li>
<li>If tethering via usb you should see an ipv4 address of <code>192.168.42.XX</code></li>

<p>If you leave blutooth on while trying to tether, your phone could get hot, your battery could go dead, and your hotspot could fail to work properly.
2020-12-17 15:07:51 -08:00
Be surprised it it doesn't crash and soft-reboot.</p>
