In this video I discuss how to USB tether your Android smartphone to a Mac OS X computer to share the phones 4G connection. USB tethering is more secure and reliable than using the hotspot.

Thanks for this video. I went ahead and installed HoRNDIS. Unfortunately, although I see my Samsung Android in the Network list, it's color is not green, but yellow. It says "Status: Connected" but it also says "Samsung_Android has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the internet." I notice that the Router and DNS Server numbers are blank. Do you know how I can fix this? Thanks so much.
Amazing. Thank you professor. I always wondered how to perform this connection as I need to work from remote area time to time. This is sweet, I have now connected my work Android phone Samsung J5 with Macbook late 2008 aluminium unibody laptop, running Yosimite 10.10.5. Thanks again.

Thank you so much Adam for this tutorial. I've been looking for ways to usb tether my mac to my new Google Nexus 5 for hours. With the help of your video now I can, brilliant!
Galaxy s4 on Sprint, this only allows the wifi connection to be shared. Gives error about not being able make a mobile connection MIP 67 when i try to share with data only.
Glad to be of assistance….
worked beautifully with my mac mountain lion, and my cyanogen mod 10.2 rooted samsung tab 2 7.0 thank you!!!
I would be honored… it's a great tool. Thanks for writing it.
Your carrier needs to support the tethering. This is NOT a hack… it is a driver/network fix for macs.
Worked on the 1st try on my friends S4 AT&T, Guess Tmobile is wise to this…
Do you need to have your wsp add hotspot to your data plan? USB tether is grayed out on S3 T mobile.
