Is there an App or way to usb tether my Galaxy s20 to a router and only use phone data and not hotspot data, ? My plan has 30 gigs of hotspot data and then gets turned off phone data is unlimited but deprioritize after 100 gigs, I need to bypass the hotspot data in tethering mode, My goal is to use the phone as a modem and router as a wifi broadcasters in the home. Is there a way to do this or a better way ?

I'm super new to all this, but I've been helped by the community so if I can I'll do the same.

Here's some info on the GO firmware:

Here's a firmware for your router:
GL-AR750 v1:
https://www.ofmodemsandmen.com/download ... -03-01.zip

Alternate model version of GL router:
GL-AR750s v1:
https://www.ofmodemsandmen.com/download ... -03-01.zip

I have not used this firmware version or that router so use at your own risk, you may be able to find something newer here:

There's probably a specific process to flash to the GO firmware onto your router, you may want to look into that before just pushing the image.

Good luck.

Follow this post carefully to tether a phone to a router via usb or WiFi.
