The Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) is a Microsoft proprietary protocol used mostly on top of USB. [1] It provides a virtual Ethernet link to most versions of the Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD operating systems. Multiple revisions of a partial RNDIS specification are available from Microsoft, but Windows implementations have ...
Ethernet over USB is the use of a USB link as a part of an Ethernet network, resulting in an Ethernet connection over USB (instead of e.g. PCI or PCIe).. USB over Ethernet (also called USB over Network or USB over IP) is a system to share USB-based devices over Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or the Internet, allowing access to devices over a network.

The computer that shares its Internet connection serves as a gateway device, meaning that all traffic between other computers and the Internet go through this ...
Through the first half of the 1980s, Ethernet's 10BASE5 implementation used a coaxial cable 0.375 inches (9.5 mm) in diameter, later called thick Ethernet or thicknet. Its successor, 10BASE2, called thin Ethernet or thinnet, used the RG-58 coaxial cable. The emphasis was on making installation of the cable easier and less costly.
LANtastic [1] is a peer-to-peer local area network (LAN) operating system [2] for DOS and Microsoft Windows (and formerly OS/2). [3] The New York Times described the network, which permits machines to function both as servers and as workstations, [2] as allowing computers, "to share printers and other devices."
A packet-switched network transmits data that is divided into units called packets.A packet comprises a header (which describes the packet) and a payload (the data). The Internet is a packet-switched network, and most of the protocols in this list are designed for its protocol stack, the IP protocol suite.

It is called Wi-Fi sharing on Samsung Galaxy and One UI. [26] [27] Google have also added this feature for the first time on the Pixel 3. [28] Microsoft Windows computers also allow the sharing of an active Wi-Fi (or Ethernet) connection through tethering. [29] See also Internet Connection Sharing (ICS).
