Using wifi to send my laptop internet

I currently have my wizard setup as a moden to feed my laptop internet via bluetooth and it seems to work quite well but my laptop does not have bluetooth so i am forced to use an adapter which is sort of a pain. is it possible to do something similar with wifi? i cant seem to make it work.
any help would be appreciated.

u would have to set up and Ad-Hoc connection between your wizard and laptop and set internet connection sharing over that connection.

is it possible to enable ICS on WM5? i looked through the options and i culod not see it. are there any programs out there that do it?

Polaris as WLAN Stick

HTC Polaris has included WLAN, so my Question can the Device can be used as a WLAN USB Stick, to connect the PC with the Internet (Router or Modem Connection).
My PC is far away from the Router so i dont want LAN Cable at all. Is WLAN possible via Mobile

Hmm... In theory it should work over ActiveSync/Windows Mmbile Device Center since WLAN is one adapter and AS/WMDC is another adapter.
But you'd need some kind of router software for polaris to route requests from AS/WMDC-Adapter over WLAN-Adapter to your internet modem or router.
Don't know if such software exists. I'm afraid you have to google for it by yourself.

WMWifiRouter

I have been testing WMWifiRouter and its great, the latest version 1.11 seems quite stable and I get a good connection speed considering its a mobile. Just make sure you are on an unlimited data plan otherwise you will soon clock up a nasty bill ;o)

Maybe it isn't so, but my understanding of the original question is that he wants to use the Cruise as a simple USB WiFi network card, while getting an internet access using an existing WiFi network. WMWifiRouter seems irrelevant for this task, and even if it can do it, you can probably get a WiFi card (either USB or PCI) for WMWifiRouter's price.
Bottom line - i don't know if this is possible, but even if it is, WiFi cards are too cheap today to make it attractive.

With the original rom it's possible to share web connection to a pc. So it seems really easy and possible to do it. Just connect your polaris to the web using wifi and then share the connection with a usb cable. That's all.

What app to share? Internetsharing share connection from cellula line only.

It was internet sharing. So if it's really not an option I don't no any. Cya

Using ICS to share the WiFi connection?

Hi!
Does anyone know if it; possible to share the wifi connection using internet connection sharing? My wifi card died in my PC and I won't have the replacment until 4 days from now. I was able to connect using the 3G network, which is cool. But I can't seem to find anything about shareing the wifi connection. I'm just using USB for this, with 3G, the speed is more than acceptable, but I'm curous about sharing the WiFi via USB over my Tilt.

Use WMWifirouter
Go to http://www.wmwifirouter.com

I know it's possible to do this without that software.
Does anyone know the details of this process?

Wireless Adapter

Hi,
Was just wondering if the polaris can be used as a WIFI adapter for PC?
i.e. using the wifi capabilities of the phone to connect to internet on the pc.
Thanks

hi I think what you are looking for is wmwifirouter - google that and will bring you to there homepage. Not only does that but can do other sort of tethering as well eg - 3g to bluetooth, 3g to pc, wifi to pc, and others.

Hmm, so with this program, basically I can connect via the following illustration?
wifi router ----wireless---> polaris ----USB---> PC?
The site you sent to me sounds moe like making the smartphone into a router.. Though, i may be wrong..
Thanks though!

hi yes it does both though i believe to do what you are asking the computer has to have internet sharing enabled someone correct me if i"m wrong, but I have done this myself when i was playing with this program and had it working although i have only done this once as i use the program to make the polaris a wifi router.

[Q] need to share wifi from my laptop

hi guys,
i use wired netting for internet to my laptop, and want to share internet via wifi to sgs2. but sgs2 can't find wifi network which i created. btw os:Win XP. i've found some software to share internet via wifi from laptop but they're generally for win7 or other os systems, is here anybody who share internet via wifi from laptop? and does sgs2 find that network?
thanks, sorry for bad english cya

Hey,
I dont use it but when you create a connection an and it runs it have to be found. Try maybe a wlan stick instead of the build in chip on your notebook,without cryption.
