Getting the internet from your PC to your android device is called reverse tethering. It is tricky cause it s not a built in feature. Some solutions exist if your a linux user :

Don't know if it's still relevant the question is old considering Android lifetime.

If you are not, well I never find a way.

There are two current (2019) tools that do this job well:

gnirehtet

This project provides reverse tethering over adb for Android: it allows devices to use the internet connection of the computer they are plugged on. It does not require any root access (neither on the device nor on the computer). It works on GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS.

It's written in Rust and Java; you can choose the server component. It requires adb on the host, and at least Android 5.0. The device itself will then be managed by the program.

SimpleRT

Reverse Tethering utility for Android.

Allows you to share your computer's internet connection with your Android device via a USB cable

This one requires no adb and no rooting, but you have to build the Android APK file yourself or download a release version.
