Let's pop those guys' balloons. We, Wi-Fi players deserve to play the game in a proper fashion pretty much like those guys that haven't ever felt the warmth of a woman and/or haven't left their room in quite a few months.

In order to do this process, that will allow you to play with ethernet players (as they might think you're a fellow ethernet player) you're gonna need:

• An android-based Smartphone
  
• An USB cable (that you can connect to your phone, and your PC)
  
• Wifi connection (optional. You could use your phone's data plan to play and ruin those guys' days)

And of course, your PC, and your copy of Tekken 7 here on Steam.

Let's delve into it.

This is how a Wi-Fi connection usually looks. As you can see, I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network, and my PC has internet access due to the fact that I'm connected.


And this is the end result, this is what we're trying to achieve:


As you can see, now it has the LAN logo instead. However, I've not connected a LAN cable to my PC. I'm, in fact, receiving my internet connection via Wi-Fi. Yet, my PC believes it is connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable.

Follow these steps:


Install the USB drivers for your Phone, in your computer. And restart it. In my case, since I'm using an old Motorola G 3rd Generation platform, I had to install Motorola USB Drivers. It's the same deal for any phone. Just look up the name of your smartphone + usb drivers in Google and you're bound to find them in no time.


Connect an USB cable to your computer, preferably to one of the USB ports in the back. If you're using a laptop, it doesn't really matter where you connect it. However, in both cases, try and prop your phone somewhere where it won't move.


Connect the USB cable to your phone. Wait a few minutes until your system detects it and installs the proper connection with the driver you've provided beforehand.


Go into your phone's configurations/settings app. The way to do this can be different depending on your phone, but this is how it looks for Motorola phones:


Settings > More (under the Network Configs tab) > Usb Tethering and Portable Hotspots > Enable USB Tethering.


Once that's done, the network menu on your PC should look a bit like this


As you can see, I'm still connected to Wifi, but a new "Lan" network has appeared (Red 2) just above the one Wi-Fi connection I'm using.

Just disconnect yourself from that Wi-Fi network or deactivate the Wi-Fi mode.



If you followed all the previous steps, your taskbar icon for network connections should look like this:


I recommend you restart Steam, and then you can launch Tekken 7. When you go into ranked mode, there won't be any Wi-Fi indicators and thus you'll get all the matches.

That's all, have fun!
