I have an ASUS PCE-AC56 wireless card, leaving my ethernet port open. If I were to, say, get a LattePanda when it comes out, is it possible to connect it to my Ethernet port on my computer and get an internet connection that way? I'd mainly use it as a cheap web server to get rid of my annoying and bad free hosting service.

My rig: Intel Core i7-8700K OC 4.8 | NZXT Kraken X62 | ASUS Z370-F | 16 GB Trident Z RGB 3000 (2x8) | EVGA 1070 SC | EVGA SuperNova NEX650G1 | NZXT H700 | Samsung 250GB 850-EVO | 2x 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDDs

Yeap, you can do that by sharing your internet connection. Find out more about it here: http://www.countrymilewifi.com/how-to-share-computers-wifi-with-ethernet-devices.aspx

Awesome, thanks!

 

The funny part is, seconds after I posted this I was like "ohh right it has built-in wifi" but this is still good to know ;)
