Touch HD (Blackstone) as WLAN accesspoint - Lan gaming? - Touch HD General

Hi all.
I have in other threads seen that it is possible to use the HD as a wireless access point and thereby for internet sharing.
But it is possible for laptops etc. to connect and e.g. play lan-based games together, for example Counter Strike?

Streaming PC content through wifi / 3g

Hi friends
Pardon me if this has been explained elsewhere, I did a search but due to the ubiquitous nature of the search terms, I could not find a plausible solution.
Is it possible for me to access the files in my wireless laptop with b/g connectivity using 1) Imate SP5 with wireless b or 2) over 3g connectivity with my Samsung Blackjack II (no wifi)? I know about Orb etc, but I am more interested in using the native clients for networking rather than install third party apps. Both phones are running WM 6, laptop has Vista Ultimate. Laptop is connected via WiFi WPA to home broadband router.
I am mainly looking to play my mp3 files using the phone via headphones and to play an occasional DVD using the laptop's drive and watching it on the phone.
Thanks for reading
Regards
you should be able to connect via wifi or gprs using the built-in file explorer. Try 'menu' 'open path'
You should use Orb to do that. If you are under Vista and you have a TV card, you will even be able to stream DVB-H TV.
Go to www.orb.com
Thanks SToNeD, but as stated in the OP, I do know about Orb and have tried it in the past. I am trying to utilise the inbuilt resources of the phone for an occasional movie/music streaming, rather than running the resource hungry Orb 24/7 in my PC.
Awaiting further suggestions please

New Chalenge, Can you help????

I people, im a bit new here.... is my first post, i wonder ??

[Question] Video Stream from IP Webcam to IE/Opera on Blackstone?

Hello Blackstone Community!!!
Has anyone here successfully streamed live video from their IP Webcam to their blackstone using the Internet Explorer and/or Opera web browsers? Please specify if you were using WiFi, GPRS, or 3G connections. What IP Webcam did you purchase!
My application: I would like to purchase a IP Webcam that allows for........
- Pan/Tilt/Zoom
- Bi-Directional Audio Functionality
- Wireless - Wifi and possibily battery operated
- Allows for streaming to multiple web browsers using
WiFi, and GPRS, on my Blackstone ( I live in USA so 3G not an option)
Please provide advice if you can or let me know what technology on the webcam I need to at least satisfy the requirement to allow streaming to windows mobile devices using WiFi, and GPRS connections.
Thank you
Have a look at this thread.

Not so much for the cameras itself, but the application seems very useful.
When I get the time, I'll be having a play.
As for the CCTV itself. Most reputable manufacturers will have units that will meet your purposes. It depends on budget and situation. AXIS are good and cheap, Panasonic are good and midrange. Sony are v. good and expensive. Spec sheets will tell you all you need to know.
There is tonnes of information out there, and many many forum dedicated to CCTV professionals. Go go Google! Probably better than asking here.
I had a little dabble with streaming a web cam to the internet and the best program I came across was a free program called YAWCAM (Yet Another Webcam Software!).
http://www.yawcam.com/
I haven't used it recently, but it is simple to use and I successfully streamed images of our home to my Orange SPV E650 (this too was an HTC smart phone, but rebranded for Orange in the UK).
I reckon on the HD the results should be pretty good. A the time I was using it for monitoring our newly installed cat flap (CATCAM!) to make sure both of our cats were actually using it (one still refuses to!) .
I think if you used this in conjunction with remote desktop, VNC or the like, you should then be able to control the camera too.
Hope this helps...

network printing via router

Hey guys,
I have a small problem with the printing software.
At home, we got a "network printer", that means the printer is connected with our router (T-Com Speedport W900V) over an USB-Cable.
So actually its not a '"pure" network printer, because you map them as a local printer in Windows. Just the port is set to "Standard TCP/IP-Port" and mapped as "speedport.ip"
Now my question: Is it possible to address this printer directly like in Windows with our software? Or is it just possible over "Workgroup" and a running PC? (this option works flawlessly)
greetz
playdo
PS (for better understanding):
WORKING: Print from my Touch via my laptop on the printer, which is connected to my router.
NOT WORKING: Print directly from my Touch on the printer.
could be a print driver issue
The printer works! But just via the other way i mentioned.
I think its a network issue or just a lack of a program feature
if you're question is about getting a network printer to work
in a different way from a windows pc
rather then getting a network printer to work from your blackstone pda
I should prob move your thread to the offtopic forum
as it would have nothing to do with blackstone pda's at all
and in offtopic forum more people with knowledge about
network printers would be likely to stumple across it
if they don't happen to own blackstone pda's too
Oh i'm sorry, i think we got an misunderstanding. Probably because i'm not a native english speaker.
Here is again what i have/want:
WORKING: Print from my Touch via my laptop on the printer, which is connected to my router.
NOT WORKING: Print directly from my Touch on the printer.
Hope i made my request more clear
Isn't there any possible solution?
Or couldn't I make my request clear enough?
I don't know if anybody has the same configuration at home, but it is like this:
The router provides the printer as a local printer, just over an TCP/IP-Port. So in Windows you connect it over "local printer" and "specific port --> TCP/IP"
But I think that isn't possible with our Westtek Software, is it?
may be the (jetcet?) software in HD doesn't support printing over ppc networking.

connect with projector

hi
is it possible to connect htc jade with a wifi projector to get output
if possible then pls tell me how
there's no tv-out on the jade (htc HD does).
so only possibility I know so far is myMobiler, which can connect via WLAN (as long as both devices are in the same segment). you can than output your PC/notebook's screen to a beamer.
hi
i have a wifi projector
i just only want that i can see powerpoint pressentation through projector
i don't understand what you say
pls explain
you need extra software like "mymobiler" to get the htc jade screen to a PC. there's no other way.
so it will not support your wifi projector.
