How do I share PDAnet USB internet connection via Windows Hotspot?
I was wanting to connect my tablet to my laptop which is using PDAnet to connect to the internet through my phone. The phone is connected via USB. I tried the "WiFi Share" option through PDAnet but it directed me to the Windows Hotspot settings which doesn't allow me to select the USB connection.
I changed the sharing settings of the connection to allow other people to use it.
Is there any way to get Windows to recognize this connection and share it?

So here's what you do:
- turn on actual mobile hotspot (the one on your phone)
- connect PC to it
- bottom right of Windows is the notifications button, click it and hit mobile hotspot, it won't be greyed out anymore.
- leave the PC hotspot on while turning off the phone's mobile hotspot
- teather phone to PC (PDAnet, foxfi, whatever)
- bask in glorious Wi-Fi
This used to be about 10 steps longer but I've simplified it.
I'll update if I find an easier way.
