Can my iPhone use desktop internet ?

[Kosmos_]

Hey folks,
I hope somebody can help me.

Is there a way I can get my cellphone (iPhone 6) to use the internet from my computer ? I've got my internet plugged into my desktop via ethernet cable, and soon I want to turn my Wi-Fi off, and my iPhone uses Wi-Fi.

Of course, the iPhone uses it's own usb cable to connect to a desktop usb port, however I want my iPhone to feed off the internet from my desktop.

Is it possible ?

Thanks for any help

Why disable WiFi though..? You are complicating things for seemingly no good reason..

No.

if it were an Android phone you could set it to use your Ethernet, but as its an iphone, Apple wants to control everything,
so its a no.

This is called inventing a solution for a problem that doesn’t need to exist.

Why do you want to disable wifi in the house?

Do what you love.
Love what you do.

Not sure it’s possible with an iPhone 6.

Wi-Fi gives him headaches according to his horoscope and gemstones.

You will see zero benefit of any kind, living without WiFi in the house..

Might as well get rid of your microwave too, and your remotes for your garage door and or gate.. even newer TVs are now coming with Bluetooth remotes, so be careful of those too..

You forgot about the radiation he pumps into his brain every time he uses said iPhone…

But alas for everyone else in this thread, I am going to curse it by proving OP with a solution.

Going via the desktop will not work. That will require huge amounts of software that neither iPhone nor PC has.
What you can do is simply get a Lightning to ethernet adapter, then plug your phone into the wired network. You might need an additional network switch though.

Wifi signal is good for the skin.

Your iPhone 6 with iOS 12 stopped getting security updates. You have bigger problems than Wifi.

Might as well just plug your iPhone into your Fibre router with an ethernet cable and an adapter
