Hey guys, i was wondering if windows mobile 6 could connect your phone through wifi, and then share that wifi connection with your PC? 3g is pretty slow in my area, and we dont get the broadband service installed in our new apartment for another week or so. However, i can connect my phone to a few wireless networks that are close by. It would be nice if i could share that wifi connection with my PC, so i wouldnt have to deal with the crappy 3g here. Essentially I want to use my phone as a wireless adapter, then sharing that connection to my PC through BT or USB. The internet share in WM6 only alows for you to select your GPRS internet connection to share. An update/fix/or 3rd party app that could do what i want would rock.Thnks.
Using your phone as a wireless (wifi) adapter for your PC
Best option, wireless network card. they are cheap and alot better

would prob be alot less hassel to just buy an usb wifi card they are pretty cheap
Is it possible to share Internet connection which is acquired over WiFi to a computer using BT or USB connection. This way a phone could be used as a mean of wireless connection for computers which don't have Wlan card!
this should do it:

Hello!
Is there any possibility to use the internet connection from the notebook with ADSL cable on the HTC Touch HD using a data cable?
Or make this internet from notebook turn wifi and use on HTC?
Sorry for my poor english...
Thanks people!
Easiest way is using activesync connection (USB or bluetooth). There are many tutorials on this - just google them

I couldn't find any thing about this on google. The problem is that It has many thread explaining how to use the phone as modem and not the inverse.
My network adapter is an Intel Wi-Fi 4965AGN. Can I put this adapter to work on acces point and send internet to my phone?
You should be able to plug the Cat5 cable into the netbook and then turn on internet connection sharing on the Cat5 Network Connection. You then need to bridge that and the wireless adapter connection and set the wireless up as an ad-hoc network. You then join the ad-hoc network with the Touch HD.
Look here for how to do it: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/adhoc.mspx
Hi, I got a laptop without a wireless card for internet connection. So I've been using my HD2 as a USB wireless device, which gives me internet everywhere. THat very nice, and it works extremely well, however I got a question. WHen at home and at work I would like to connect to the wireless router, and not to my mobile internet, is that possible?
Because even tho i connect without problem to my own router at home, I cant really make my HD2 use that for my computer. Is it even possible?
nope... and that is the whole purpose of a wireless card, to pick up wifi signals from a router
It is possible.
Use ICS Control:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377047
Setup should be as follows:
public interface: BCMSDDHD1
private interface: RNDISFN1
Connect your HD2 to WiFi network, click "Start ICS" and plug the cable in to your PC. Should work If you have XP, you should kill Active Sync process first.
Thank you, however I'm not sure that I do everything correctly.
There's quite a lot of settings in that pieve of software, is all I have to edit really the public and private interface drop down boxes? Nothing else?
And when connection to wifi, shall i then just minimize ICS controls, go to phone settings and connect to wifi there?
Thank you
What you want is for your phone to connect to the internet through wireless connection, not your phone's data/internet connection?
If so, then it's definitely possible. Not only at home and work, but also at many wifi spots throughout the world. How you go about it depends on some things.
Does your home and/or work wireless router connect straight to the internet (such as a connection from the wireless router to a cable modem, etc.) ? If so, you only need to know how to connect with the wireless router and your phone should default to that connection for internet when your phone's wifi is turned on. You can always turn data connection off when you turn wifi on to make sure it goes through wifi.
If your wireless router does not connect directly to the internet but one of the computers on the router's network does, then you'll have to use Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on that internet enabled computer as posted about above.
I want my phone connected to the wifi router, simple yes. However, then I want my phone to share the internet from the router, with a computer connected to the phone via usb cable.
So my phone will actually work as a wireless usb device, connecting to a wifi router.
WMWiFi Router provides following options on the phone:
1)3G converting to WiFi
2)3G converting to USB
3)3G converting to BlueTooth
4)WiFi converting to USB
5)USB converting to WiFi
Hi all,
Hope you can help.
I know there are plenty of applications that will allow me to use androids 3g connection and turn it into a wifi hotspot, however, what I need to do is use a PC's internet connection and use my android desire z as a router to allow other PC's to connect to the same network. The PC does not have wifi or a router and is connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable.
Many thanks,
Martin
