I have a problem under Windows 8.1 when I try to use internet through an Android USB Tethering... I have a nexus 5 and when I enabled the USB Tethering, it works fine (I can navigate and use internet), but windows has some strange behavior, it became very slow...
The event viewer show a lot of errors: (look the screenshots below)
Here's the XML of one warning.
- <Event xmlns="">
- <System> <Provider Name="Microsoft-Windows-DeviceSetupManager" Guid="{FCBB06BB-6A2A-46E3-ABAA-246CB4E508B2}" /> <EventID>201</EventID> <Version>0</Version> <Level>3</Level> <Task>0</Task> <Opcode>0</Opcode> <Keywords>0x4000000000000000</Keywords> <TimeCreated SystemTime="2015-03-01T20:18:08.967578100Z" /> <EventRecordID>27628</EventRecordID> <Correlation /> <Execution ProcessID="524" ThreadID="5304" /> <Channel>Microsoft-Windows-DeviceSetupManager/Admin</Channel> <Computer>Marco-PC</Computer> <Security UserID="S-1-5-18" /> </System> <EventData /> </Event>The task manager and the resource monitor too:
Taskmanager got really slow and the refresh rate is about 1 step every 30/40seconds...
The resource monitor refresh looks fine, but there is a 109% of CPU and an high disk usage...
I tried usb debugging, changing the usb port, restart the computer, and other solutions...

I had this problem for years. This issue crosses multiple versions of Windows. But finally I found the solution: Override installation of the RNDIS6 driver ( - This is a similar related issue that explains our problem)
Follow the steps in the picture, Start in the Device Manager, then select your tethering device. With right-click follow the update driver option. Select the second options: "Find driver in my PC" (DO NOT let it automatically select).
When you hit the "Use disk..." option as in the image, locate the folder C:\Windows\INF. Turn off the "Show compatible hardware only" option and the full driver list will appear. Find Microsoft and then select the NDIS6 driver.
I hope be helpful.
0Had the same problem. ClockworkMod Tether works well for me.
