You're experiencing a mix of connections—your PC is using Ethernet for home internet and Android is connected via USB hotspot. The system will try to manage both, but prioritize whichever is more stable. If the home internet drops, the PC should switch to the Android connection to keep you online, especially during gaming. It’s not clear if it actively chooses between them, but it will maintain a connection with the better option available.

Varies by game; you might jump to the shortcut mode and attempt to stop midway.

It's unclear which connection your PC is using. Are you looking for the faster one or the unthrottled option? What's happening? Will it consume all your data even when Ethernet is connected? I don't know, but your old laptop seems to perform better on the hotspot.

I checked it out, and it seems to favor the connection you provide first.

Hey there! Could you clarify what you mean by "solved"? Or should I just highlight the thread for you?

You've confirmed it works on your setup, with both links operating simultaneously. It seems the system prioritizes them together.

Both connections are handling data simultaneously. They’re not being prioritized—they’re operating together. The data usage is very high, around 1MB per minute or more, while your data plan allows 500MB per month. That’s why it’s not working as expected.

Here it is clearly: mobile data, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi are all connected together. I’m using USB, but Bluetooth could also work for these connections. I wasn’t sure if the Ethernet was active or Wi-Fi was on, but they function separately.
