I was just wondering if anyone had gotten OctroVideo or WMWifiRouter to work on the Verizon XV6800. I'm not running any special ROMs or Radios.
OctroVideo connects, but then gives me a black screen instead of video and the website doesn't say I am streaming. Also, when I try to use WiFi it won't sign in.
WMWifiRouter keeps giving me a Fatal Error after it seems like it is going to work. I connect to the ad-hoc network I create and then open WMWifiRouter, but still nothing.
Help anyone? Thanks.
I tried Octro Video with great anticipation. Like you, I received only a black screen on my XV6800. I never tried it via Wi-Fi; just the Verizon cell network.

What's the best WiFi interenet sharing solution? WalkingHotSpot, WiFiRouter,
JoikuSpot, ICSControl, Internet Sharing, or Tethering, etc. Is there another option? What's the advantages and dissadvantages of each?
What I would really like is to have a solution that allows me to configure how many people can connect and/or some kind of security, WEP, or anything at all. Is that possible?
I tried using the Internet Sharing Utility but I would keep getting a Verizon sceen saying I needed to sign up for a different service. I tried both WalkingHotSpot and WiFiRouter. WifiRouter seemed to keep my WiFi on all the time and allowed unlimited people to connect with no security, and WalkingHotSpot I couldn't get working for some reason, but it didn't look like you could set up any security with that either. Thanks for the help and time..
I don't think wifirouter can be beat, I have used it and prefer it.
I hear there is a bug in it that allows it to keep your WiFi turned on all the time. I heard there is a WEP feature and a feature that allows you to kick IPs off from using it. Do you know anything about this? Thanks.

I am not sure what you are talking about.
But you can set up a secure wireless network. It is only on if the switch is on so when you disconnect and turn switch off its done.
I have run the program for 10+ hours straight while on the road it kept the wifes laptop connected anywhere we have connectivity. I do run a amplifer and external antenna for those weaker areas.
Go check out the documentation at this link to see if the info is there?
http://support.wmwifirouter.com/documentation/
What version of the software are you using? I don't remember seeing any of those options with my version. It seemed to still have WiFi working even when the button was off, the icon looked like it was still working, but I didn't test it.. Thanks...
wmwifirouter is my favorite and my dad's by far

try another access point.
However, I have two of the same titans as you, and the same router.
one connects, the other does not.
I have asked many times on this site for help, but no response. the only difference is that the one that fails has updated roms.
it does not appear to be hardware, switch or other physical problems. I have tried several roms, and even flashing back to original. No go.
Wifi is all I can think about now, and if it was not for the service providers stupid data requirements, I would get a new smart phone.
I have a Mogul with Ryan Moguls Cricket lite 3.1/ radio 3.42.40 and I have the same basic problem. Only occasionally will my Wifi connect or detect my Access point (about 15 feet away). turning WLAN on/off doesnt seem to help. I have used other 6800's in the same environment with wifi working perfectly, so maybe it's a hardware problem. (although I have two 6800's right now with similar symptoms).
Any suggestions on how to check wifi antenna?
Hi, I installed the HTC Wifi Tether app on a stock US HD2 Rom, but none of my devices can get an internet signal - sometimes I can see it and it says connected, but web browsing does not work.
I used wifi tether on my G1 for the last year, so I thought this would be as easy - no luck so far.
I also tried the WMWifiTether app, but with the same results.
Any help is appreciated - this is somewhat of a deal breaker for me if I can't get tethering working. Thanks

Uninstall that app. Install "omarket" from http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/omarket/
Install "Mobile Wi-Fi Router"
It will be listed under: Settings-->Menu-->All Settings-->Connections-->Wifi Internet Sharing .
This works perfectly on my T-Mobile US HD2. )
p.s. If this does not work, you may have some crap from the HTC wifi app still sticking around. Do a factory reset and install the omarket app.
Wi-Fi Router works fine for me.
T-Mobile UK has Wi-Fi Router as app in start menu.
Works perfect wit my Windows Laptop and my MacBook Air despite T-Mobile saying the HD2 won't "tether" with Apple (and it doesn't).
I ran 3 PC's from just the one phone, amazing, even managed to watch some catchup TV on MacBook using Wi-Fi Router. Just set it up on the phone and then simply look for wireless point... your own WiFi Zone.

I tried that, I tried changing the name o fhte network, and I have soft and hard reset between installing different wifi tether apps. Same thing every time - my pc will see it, connect, but no internet. My other device can sometimes see it, sometimes not. I'm at wit's end, because I can still use the same account with my G1 to tether, and that works flawlessly. This and other problems I am having with the HD2 make me feel like I am in microsoft bug territory now. ugh. With any luck, we'll have either windows phone 7 and / or android soon.
Make sure there's no spaces in the wifi network name and make sure your computer is set up to take a DHCP address on wireless rather than static.
Hi,
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but having searched I can't find anything that helps.
I have upgraded my G1 to run on Android 2.2 via all the links and information on here, but seem to be haing some trouble with Wifi.
The G1 finds and connects to my wireless access point no problem, I can then browse the Android Market on the phone but after about 1-2 minutes I get a message saying "A network error has occurred", I click retry repeatedly and sometimes after a few attempts I get it to load the page I want. I also experience the same when browsing the web on the G1.
I have tried manually creating the wifi connection but still no improvement. I have changed the channel of my access point but again still no improvement.
I have tried disabling Wifi on the G1 and using my mobile internet connection from my 3G network and this works fine.
Here are some details from my G1
Android version 2.2.1
Baseband version 62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
Kernel version 2.6.35.99-cyanogenmod shade(atsign) toxygene #2
Mod version CyanogenMod-6.1.0-DS
Build number FRG83
Any helpwill be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Gavin
Still no joy!!
Still hoping for some help, in the meantime I have updated the radio to 2.22.23.02 but still I am experiencing the same problem.
Help!
I have the exact same problem on my HD2. 3G and internet pass-through work fine, but when I'm on WiFi I get the network error messages. I have tried different WiFi networks, several Rom, radio, Kernel combinations and I still get the same errors. I even tried reverting back to the original T-Mobile Windows Rom. While I can't get the same errors, many web pages didn't load while browsing. In general I got the feeling that the rate of non-loading pages was similar to that of the network error pop-ups that I experienced while using Android. At this point I'm suspecting that I have a hardware problem. I tried opening up the phone and messing with the WiFi antenna connections, but nothing I did made any difference. I'm still looking for a solution, but no one has really addressed this exact problem.
While this may not be helpful to your specific problem I hope it makes you feel better that you are not alone.
What wifi do you run on? b/g/n ? That may also affect your connectivity.
It sounds more like a modem/access point problem to me...not phone.
Could be wifi interference from a cordless phone etc. Also, check you are using 20mhz bandwidth on your wifi access point. Some access points allow setting it to 40mhz which can really cause problems.
Can you try wifi access from a friends house that is known reliable and see if there is any improvement?
I too have this issue
I have jumped through all the hoops to get my T-mobile G1 rooted, updated
(2.6.35.10-TheOfficial-pershoot-DreamSapphire-2708)
and it works great with my voice only sim from AT&T...except that the wifi just doesn't work right. It connected for about 20 minutes, and since then everything I try to do fails after a loooooooong pause "Network Error"
Is there anyone who has any idea what this can be?
This issue started today when I tried using wifi on Southwest Airlines. Then got to my hotel and can't connect to their open wifi either. Actually, it connects but it says I may not have internet. The obvious problem is that the banner page which you usually have to accept terms and conditions for the WiFi no longer pops up.
I tried using my iPhone and the wifi on the plane and at the hotel work fine after you accept the terms.
Anyone know why it doesn't automatically pop up the acceptance window for these unsecured WiFi?? I've tried changing all the settings and nothing works.
I also uninstalled AdHell 2 thinking that maybe it was blocking legitimate stuff like the WiFi terms page but that didn't work. Frustrating.
Anyone else having the same issue??
