So what I want to do is send wifi and local servers over usb to computer.

So the raspberry pi connects to the internet fine and is hosting a server on it. What I then want to do is connect it to my pc over usb, like how tethering to pc works with a mobile device. So then my computer access the internet and the local server on the pi.

Thank you,

Please comment if you have any more questions.

  • why do you want to use a USB connection? ... why not Wi-Fi or ethernet? Commented Apr 24, 2022 at 0:12
  • Because wlan0 on the pi can't connect to the internet and be a hotspot and I would have to get an ethernet adapter. Commented Apr 24, 2022 at 2:26
  • AFAIK this is only possible with the Zero models and the Pi-4, because USB is not symmetrical: A device is either a master or a slave. Normal PCs, including Rpis, are normally masters and you cannot connect a master to a master. However, if configured correctly the Zero can be a slave ("gadget mode") using it's USB 2 jack and the Pi-4 using USB-C.
