Connecting Nighthawk RAX54 to Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra to use USB tethering
Hi everyone. Need help configuring T-Mobile Galaxy S21 android phone to use USB tethering for my RAX54 router. Thank you. Tommy
I have seen one user a while ago that used a usb-c to ethernet adapter with a phone that was able to tether that route.
I can't remember if they needed to put the router in AP mode or just ran it straight but they had it working.
Most phone ISP's set a limit on how much data you can use this route through. Something to keep in mind.

Thanks for your comments. Here, I'm validating what you saw. It was a real Plug and Play setup. Router config is as it came out of the box. As far as I know, my mobile data plan is unlimited. Maybe, they will reduce my speed. I'll wait and see.
I'm happy to report that I'm connected to the Internet via an ARGOM Tech USB-C to RJ-45 Network Cable Adapter (dongle) connected to the USB-C female connector in my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and using the standard Ethernet tethering option of the phone software. That is all I wanted. Thanks for your time. Cheers. Tommy
