How to reverse tether our computers internet connections to your Android?

Well my house is unfortunately now going to used Wired internet connection rather than Wireless connection, and I am wondering if my phone is doomed to have no internet as a result? is there a way I can use my bluetooth adapter to share the internet connection?

Why must it be one or the other?
Why not both?

"Well my house is unfortunately now going to used Wired internet connection rather than Wireless connection"

Why can you not also have a WiFi signal in there somewhere?
I'm not seeing the problem.

So...you have a wired connection coming in from the ISP.
A WiFi Access Point, or WiFi direct from the router, would seem to alleviate this problem.

But I wouldn't be able to connect my phone or tablet to a wired connection, and for my consoles I would have to get an adapter to connect it to the router. I know I am explaining it badly

OK, so....you're going to have a 'wired connection'
What type of wired connection? What equipment?

All I know is that everything that is going to be connected will require a LAN cable

All I know is that everything that is going to be connected will require a LAN cable

And off that 'LAN cable', you connect a switch. Off that switch, you connect your hardwired devices, and an Access Point, which provides a WiFi signal to whatever needs it.

Okay, so how do I connect my phone to it? I know how to do everything else, but wireless devices, is there a way?

If you purchase an access point, it will propagate a WiFi signal. Your phone connects to that via WiFi. That then presumably goes through this new LAN connection.

But there is no signal, the only way to be onnected to the internet is if the device is plugged into the box

What is at the other end of that cable?
How, specifically, is a PC connected different than an access point connected?
