Hi @tobik59141,
This is probably a network adapter priority of your machine.
Could you please try the following:
– Run ncpa.cpl to open the Network Connection window
– In there you will see the WiFi adapter, right-click -> Properties, click on Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) -> Properties -> Advanced
– Uncheck the “Automatic metric” and set the value to any value(e.g. 3), then click OK to finish it.
Then do the same thing with your USB tethering network adapter (Remote NDIS adapter) and make sure it has higher metric value (e.g. 7).
– Then try again with spacedesk and check your WiFi connection.
Looking forward to your feedback.
