Use Wizard's WiFi Connection on PC as a WiFi Netowrk Adapter

Hi All, i'm not sure if this has been mentioned on this forum or if it is even possible, but is it possible to use the wizard's wifi capability's on the pc as a wifi network adapter? I would love it if I could connect my wizard, via usb, to my pc, and use it as a wifi adapter to connect to my router? Thanks!

AFAIK, it works the other way around. When you connect yoiur wizard through USB, it uses yhour computer's internet connection as shuts off its own. I'll let someone else answer this one though.

PDA as Wifi USB

Hi all... I have a question: is there a way (a software, a trick....) to use my PDA as a wifi usb adaptor? i want to connect it to mt notebook and connect to a WLAN connected to internet...

i've found the thread with Pocket PC Proxy... do you think u can use it? hoìw can i charge the ip address of activesync?

i think PocketPCProxy uses bluetooth to transfer wifi network, double check it.

I believe this may help you (turns your phone into a wifi hotspot)

good luck

I think he refers not to using his phone to GET the internet through the WIFI card in his computer but to use his cell phone AS the WIFI card for his computer because he doesn't have a card.

Internet via USB

I'm having this problem since a while now, cant connect my Jamin ( Prophet ) to internet via usb. it gives me some network setting error on prophet. tried to disable usb to pc advance settings ... didn't worked ...
any help ??

If you're Prophet works anything like my Kaiser, then you do need to switch on the 'internet sharing' on your device, and set it to connect via usb.
If you can't connect to the internet via usb, have you considered connecting via bluetooth?
That probably won't help, but who knows...

I've never been able to connect to the internet through USB on my Kaiser, even using the internet sharing application. The computer finds the device, but never the proper drivers to make it work. I can make it share over BT or WiFi with no problems.

Thats interesting, Jay.
May I ask if you're using a relatively new computer? I'm using a quite expensive 3-4 month Windows Vista Laptop which never required me to download any drivers to connect my laptop to the internet via internet sharing.
What you can do is try searching online for suitable drivers to install according to your computer model and make.
But hey, even if you don't find the drivers you want, know that using internet sharing via 'bluetooth' and not 'USB' is the best option. The reason why I say this is because the internet connection on your device will literally drain your battery real quick. That means that if you're connecting your phone via USB, you cannot connect your device to be charged as there is only 1 USB slot.
Now with internet sharing via bluetooth, you can keep the bluetooth and internet on which also drains the battery, but at the same time keep your device charging.
I never use internet sharing via USB but only by Bluetooth.

conncting pc -internet blackstone wirelessly?

I have a problem. ...well i have many, but this specifically -
I currently have a wirelss broadband router which sends the internet to the pc and the blackstone... but i cant figure out a way of connecting the pc to the blackstone wirelessly..... currently I have to access my pc with the usb cable....which is annoying....
my pc has asus wifi solo...
is there a way... ?

What excactly do you want to connect. ActiveSync isn't able to deal WiFi connections since a few versions, as this was mentioned to be a security issue.
If your HD is able to connect to the internet through your router, you have a valid connection, but you this doesn't mean that you can just access your HD with the explorer, or whatever you are supposed to do.

oh....so i cant connect to the blackstone with the pc through the broadband router...shame.... i could switch the pc wireless adapter to send mode to connect to the blackstone....but that would mean losing the internet whilst i did this..... how frustrating!!!

Actually this wouldn't bring any advantage. You have a valid IP connection between your HD and your PC, but you also need some services like FTP, HTTP, or whatever.

What about Remote Desktop to your PC?

If you mean tethering your HD2 to your PC and allowing your PC to connection to the internet via your phones internet then just go to the Andriod Market and do a serch for tether apps or internet sharing apps. If your PC has WiFi capabilities just use a hotspot app.
If you mean share your computers internet connection with your HD2, I really don't know it that is possible. But to do it you would have to go into your connections settings on your PC and he k allow other computers and devices to connect to the internet through this computer. It might be in networking. But what is easieast is just vet a WiFi router and use the WiFi apartheid ilities to connect.

Sorry about the spelling I was sleepy when I typed that. The easy way is to get a WiFi router to hook up to your home internet connection and set up a WiFi network at your home. Then you can use your HD2'S WiFi capabilities to connect to your WiFi network while at home. It is really nice because you do not have to be tethered to a computer or a hub with a USB cable. Now to be honest I really don't know if you can share your computers internet connection with your HD2 via your USB cable. If it is possible you will have to check allow other computers and devices to connect to the internet through this computer. This should be in networks you might have to try to set up a home network on your computer to allow your HD2 to connect to the internet via your USB cable. Hope this helps.

I had see an option to share PC's internet connection with phone via USB in motoman MyPhone 4G port for HD2. did not test it tho'

It's possible.
Please use "Reverse USB Tethering" with a kernel which supports USB Tethering.
