Hi, I run a small local area network (LAN) for development and testing (a couple desktops and a laptop). ... My internet provider complains if I run a http server that is exposed to the internet. Therefore, I set up a wireless access point that is restricted to my development lan. I then have my android device connect via wifi to my internal lan. .... In addition, my mobile carrier disabled usb tethering to the internet. Thus, a local access point gets around all the commercial carrier restrictions. .... Hope that helps.
