VERY GOOD User Rating

Tetrd is an uncomplicated tool designed to facilitate the sharing of internet connectivity between your device and your PC through a USB cable. This utility offers a three-day trial period for users to explore its functionality. After the trial period, users have the option to purchase Tether Pro for unlimited tethering, Reverse Tether Pro for unlimited reverse tethering, or Universal Tether Pro, which combines both features at a discounted rate.

Tethering

Tethering enables the sharing of your device's Wi-Fi or mobile internet connection with your PC. It proves beneficial in scenarios where network restrictions hinder the use of your device's native tethering capabilities or when data providers impose limitations on hotspot/tethering usage despite offering unlimited data plans.

Reverse Tethering

Reverse tethering empowers users to direct their computer's internet connection towards their device. This functionality proves advantageous when facing connectivity issues with the device's Wi-Fi, particularly in situations characterized by erratic ping or frequent disconnections during activities like gaming. Additionally, reverse tethering serves as a solution in environments where wired internet represents the sole connectivity option.

Note: Certain applications might solely check for Wi-Fi or mobile network connections while lacking internet access in reverse tethering scenarios.

Additional Features

  • No root permissions required
  • No USB debugging needed (with exception of Windows)
  • Rapid link speeds (exceeding 200Mbps on select devices)
  • Synchronous reverse tethering across multiple devices
  • Local network support (refer to server app settings)
  • Auto-connect functionality (refer to app settings)
  • Support for ICMP echo/ping (compatible with Android 6+)
  • Customizable network configurations

VPN Usage

The application establishes a local VPN connection that enables data transmission from the device to the computer through USB. This VPN setup becomes imperative during reverse tethering and remains elective for regular tethering operations. When engaged in tethering, a local VPN is established when activating the "Local network" feature within the server application's network settings. This feature facilitates access to PC-based servers (e.g., FTP server) from the connected device. It is essential to note that the application neither employs, gathers, nor shares any data transferred through the VPN. For further insights, please consult the app's privacy policy available at https://tetrd.app/privacy.

Usage of this application necessitates the installation of a complementary software on your computer. The required server application can be obtained via the download links provided below:

  • Windows 10+: Windows Application Download
  • MacOS 10.15+ (Intel): MacOS Application Download
