PDAnet on Samsung Galaxy S9

[ChillinKalinin]

PDAnet is able to directly share internet over USB, but it seems limited in what it can do. I can hardly connect to any game servers, steam's download speeds are slow (Figured it may be some Steam port issue but I also have problems with Origin so I'm unsure), and I can't directly connect to other peoples lobbies. I'm using Ver 5.10.5 of Pdanet (and have paid version) and am wondering if anyone knows a possible solution. I tested connection with built in USB tethering and I was able to connect, but I'd rather not blow through the limit for the built in option

I would second this. When I upgraded to the s9 plus everything got slow.... Any solutions?

So far I haven't had any success. With limited testing the hotspot would sometimes be faster for downloading games on Steam, but it's not too reliable for in-game

I got this from the company:

> 1. Uninstall PdaNet+ from your phone
> 2. Open the we browser on the phone and go to http://pdanet.co/install
> tap on the link to the apk file to download and install it.
> 3. Open PdaNet on the phone and tap the "3 dot" menu icon, select "IPv6
> support" from the menu, then select "IPv6 prioritized".
> 4. Enable USB mode and connect PdaNet.

Thank you, I'll try this as soon as I get the chance and report back

Ended up getting faster download speeds when using IPv6, though still had trouble connecting to servers. Think I figured out the problem when playing Torchlight II and it brought up I had a strict NAT. Not sure how to change it for mobile tethering but I'll keep looking
