    USB Tethering


    So I have a s phone and it's connected to my aunt wifi who is my neighbor and there's a tethering option on my phone so I use that tethering option to provide internet to my desktop computer. when I connect the phone and turn on the tethering option "Presto!" I have internet connection, BUT every few seconds, minutes or hours, I don't know what happens all I hear is the disconnection sound on my pc and no more internet which then I have to unplug the usb cable plug it in again and tick the tether option on my phone to have internet again. Is it a USB driver problem or something? I already downloaded SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.45.0. for what I think could be usb driver problems but still it disconnects from time to time.

    I also have tried the turning of the selective usb power suspending option.

    Does it disconnect even if you are not using tethering?

    Is this a USB 3 port? Try a USB 2 one if so. Are you using a hub or plug directly to PC?
    Try a port at the back of PC.

    Yes it disconnects even when I'm not using it.
    Nope, not a USB 3, but USB 2 and I plug in directly and I'm also using the back ports because when I try the front ports they disconnect and reconnect every second.
