connecting via wifi

All I want to do is connect via my WIFI in my XDA 2i, wirelessly to my router in my house, so I can use its internet connection? Any ideas?
you can, you might have better luck than me. im still trying to connect to the net, i can view files from my pc and sync via activesync but thats it.
i have searched and searched this forum but nobody seems to have the answer or the settings. prob be cause they are different in each case

Wireless
I have got the xda2s recently as well and I have been trying to connect to the internet via my router at home, but no use.....is it from the software or it needs some sort of upgrading steps??
I hope some one who is proffessional in this matter could reply to us and tell us what to do?

My brand new xda 2i has been unlocked and I am on vodafone and everything works perfectly apart from the wifi. I am wanting to connect via wifi from my xda 2i to my netgear wireless router which is connected to my pc on a 2 mb broadband connection.
But its hopeless. I have had the device for a week now and nobody seems to have a clue on how we set this up. i am getting all sorts of advice but none of it works. Is there anyone out there that has the answer to our prayers?
PLEASE!!!! before i or should I say we go insane!!!! :twisted: :evil: :twisted:

I offer to help. But you seem to want instant gratification, with no effort on your part. That's not going to work. Nor is doing everything everyone says. How many times will you post the same thread? To connect you need to do a series of steps. Little baby steps. Their can be a number of reasons why you can't connect, part of connecting is finding out what is wrong.
Not wanting to do it that way, I suggest you find someone local you can pay to stop by your home and set it up for you.

XDA 11i and the use of a wired modem not wireless

Hi team
Im the proud owner of a shiny new XDA11i and would like to connect it to the net via a standard wired modem , ie not via GPRS / wifi/my lap top etc .
I travel and often have acess to a phone point . what is the best way to move on this one , GPRS will cost me a fortune , where as dial up is 1p per min !!!!.
Ive seen ads for SDIO modems ? do they mean removing my memory card though ?
Is there a modem availiable that will fit in the serial port at the base ? or is there a modem that comes with a USB connector that I could use ?
Any thoughts? Im sure that Im not the only person who is curious about this .
Regards

WiFiRouter G1
With the help of a couple of other people I have got this working on my G1 in adhoc mode. It acts as an access point to allow tethering. Laptop --> WiFi-->3G/Edge
This will take advantage of the 3G connection and use the wifi as the local lan.
I DID NOT do all the work on this.
Hope it helps
thnx for replying.....bt tatz nt wat i wanna do..............i want to share my pc internet to the laptop.....
in detail:
connect my ppc via usb to the pc tat has internet thn enabling the usb to wifi option in wmwifi router so it can act as an access point...thn connecting my laptop to it....!!!!
now the thing is my laptop connects bt has no internet..!!!!
THIS FORUM IS AS DEAD AS A COW DUNG for being so huge...!!!!! shissssss
Just get a twisted - pair utp cable, and plug one side in your pc, one in your laptop.
Share the connection of the pocket pc, and your ready to go.
helloo............the idea is to make my ppc a router..!!!!!
Look for how to turn ur PPC as USB wifi
or
Make things simple, get a router/access point.
Enable Internet Connection Sharing in the PC. Google how to share internet in win and u will find it.
I think this is the simplest and the best solution.
Also u might want to have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377047

You want to what? Why would you need to share the internet on your PC to your laptop? Just get a $30 router from WalMart for that.
If you want to turn your PPC into a router, WMWiFiRouter is what you need. But this lets you connect your laptop to the internet over your phone's DATA CONNECTION!
I have used WiFiRouter for a long time now, it is alright aside from draining the battery beyond anything imaginable and turning my HTC Touch Pro (Alltel) into a toaster over...
I have heard about XDA releasing a Free version of wifi sharing for vga devices like my Alltel HTC Touch Pro... where is the link to this, I googled/searched/went to Engadget/Gizmodo etc and can't seem to find it...
thanks

That thread which I mentioned is basically using your phone's wireless chip to look for wireless networks, making your phone a wireless modem
