It is not possible to distribute the Internet via Wi-Fi through the TL-WN727N adapter and PPPOE connection

Hi, I wanted to share Wi-Fi in my apartment using TP-LINK TL-WN727N, installed the driver and my PC sees Wi-Fi and can connect to it. I did the access point via command line and my tablet/phone saw the network and could connect to it, but no internet. The description of the hotspot said “no internet access, secure”.

The internet is connected to the PC via cable. In the network connection tab there is a high-speed connection (through which I connect to the Internet) and ethernet (which is always on and without which the high-speed connection does not work).

I tried to give out Wi-Fi via mobile hotspot, but this option is grayed out and the color says mobile hotspot could not be set up because there is no connection.
The network status says I am not connected to any network.

I tried to give out through the TP-Link utility and it also creates an access point to which you can connect, but it does not give out internet.

That is, no matter what I tried through cmd, utilities, other programs for Wi-Fi distribution the result is the same connection is there but no internet.

I think that the problem is that the system does not recognize my connection to the Internet and writes that I am not connected. How to deal with this I can not understand. Yesterday I spent quite a lot of time on your site looking at the instructions, but unfortunately I am at a dead end.

Windows 10 1703 (if I’m not mistaken), PPPoE connection.

Hi!

It won’t work via mobile hotspot, because the hotspot doesn’t see PPPoE connection (high speed connection).

But through command line and TP-Link utility it should work. When configuring the TP-Link adapter through the utility, did you select the correct connection (high-speed, not Ethernet) in the settings? If so, the link to the instructions above (in your question).

Since mobile hotspot cannot be used in your case, I recommend you to refuse any third-party programs and utilities, and configure everything through the command line. Which you have already tried to do.

Usually, when devices connect to a virtual Wi-Fi network but without internet access (have you checked on different devices, by the way?), the problem is in the shared settings. Too bad you didn’t attach a screenshot of those settings. You can attach it in the comments below.

Also, disable antivirus and Windows firewall for a while.
