I suddenly need a wired connection for a job starting very soon but it won’t be hooked up for quite some time. I have my neighborswifi password though. Iknow this is a longshot, but would I be able to use my laptop to change a wireless connection into a wired connection?

It’s an older desktop Mac managed by the company. My laptop is an HP omen 15 with arch Linux on it

    If you have a mobile phone you just just connect it to your laptop via USB and turn on tethering to use your mobile data.

      I’d second this suggestion. Very simple to set up with any old android device you’ve got lying around.
