I am wandering if there is a way to share my internet connetion between my alltel ppc 6800 with the new htc shift. I know how to link the phone with my laptop but I am currently looking at purchasing the shift to replace it and was wandering if the connection would work. If anyone has tried this please post.
P.S. the connection would be via bluetooth unless I converted the mini usb from the ppc 6800 to usb back to usb to plug into the shift. Thanks.
not sure if it could be done with BT, pretty sure it cant be done with USB (unless the shift can operate in host mode)
what should work is wifirouter (im sure the shift has wireless)
ok so how would i get the connection to work through a router? The only internet connection i have is through the ppc 6800.
nono, wifirouter is an app that you would run on your 6800, it essentially turns it into a wireless access point that other wifi enabled devices can use for internet access
where is the app available for download at?
Is that the only way it would work or could I configure the 6800 as a modem to connect?
ok I downloaded the app but still cant connect. I am trying the connection via my laptop and it stops at waiting for Internet connection sharing. is there some setting that needs to be changed or what am i doing wrong?
You ever figure out how to get the internet on your pda using the 6800 and the connection? I would like to do this bluetooth with my setup.
The newest version of WMWiFiRouter ($$$) allows you to do this over wifi, BT, or USB. If you have the money, it's a great program.
I have WMWifiRouter and use it with my laptop. How do i use it with bluetooth to get internet on my Dell X51? The x51 wants to dial a number when you setup a connection.
Hi All,
I have had a look through the forums, (I may just not be searching for the right thing.) so please excuse me if this has already been answered somewhere.
I have just bought the Hero everything is standard at the moment as I am not sure yet what I am doing with the Android OS as I currently have a Rhodium WinMo phone.
On the Rhodium you are able to connect the USB cable to the PC and use you PC's current DSL connection to access the internet from the phone and not the phones mobile internet connection, I have not been able to achieve this from the Hero, it keeps telling me I need to enable the mobile internet connection to access the internet.
Does the Hero have the same functionality as the WinMo devices?
Many Thanks
afaik this is not possible so far. easiest way to get landline internet on the hero is to use wifi.
Well, if you have Windows 7 in your PC, you can use Wireless Hosted Network and use PC's internet connection by connecting Hero to Win7 via WiFi. Manual instructions I used. Alternatively you can try Connectify or Virtual Router, but they are just a pretty interface for the same thing and I couldn't get them to work.
Many Thanks for the help i will try this out
Hey folks,
I don't use this connection for internet access very often, but anyway, using my active sync usb connection to get on the internet, I get really slow speeds.
Often e.g. on youtube, videos really need to rebuffer very often and so on.
It seems that the active sync connection is really somehow speed limited.
My internet link here is 32mbit, so this shouldn't be an issue.
Must be an HD2-Active Sync issue. I am on Windows 7 Ultimate on the PC it's connected to.
Are there any tweaks to speed up internet connection using active sync?
thanks
boba
is the internet slow on your phone or computer?

On the phone, that's what my post is all about. On the notebook it's connected too, I get the full 32mbit of my internet link. It's definately not an issue with my internet link in general. Must be an HD2 issue. Or Windows7, who knows.
And btw, when I use wifi, or 3G internet, speeds are fine, way better than via active sync too.

ok I understand,I was under the assumption that you could transfer or tether the internet one way phone to computer, unless you were using wifi which I believe you can use you laptop to make it an access point.

Sure, I have several other options for decent internet access, but my point simply is, why is the active sync link that slow? ;-)

If you have any wireless card on your computer, i would suggest you to use your computer as a wireless router (there is a program in win 7 called connectify which converts your normal wifi card into a wifi access point) and you can connect to it from your HD2 via wifi, and speeds will be very fast.
Just a thought if it's not your situation, just ignore me.

how to do so i can use that to? i mean surf in my mobile true active sync, what program do i need?
and if i do so, can i then make my htc hd2 as a wifi router to share that connection to another computer wirelles?
As far as i know the phone is capable of this
Internet
Wired
Phone (Via Provider Data Plan) -> Computer (Via USB to PC in Connections)
Wireless
Phone (Via Provider Data Plan) -> Wireless Device (Via Wifi Internet Sharing)
Wireless Router -> Phone
Provider Data Plan ->Phone
hello guys im new in this and i have a question...
If i connect my htc hd2 to my laptop via USB... will i have internet?
im in prepaid mode and when i try to join to my facebook without connecting my cellphone i cant open the facebook... but when i connect it to my laptop via USB i can join to everything...
CAn you guys help me please?
It's called tethering. It shares your phones internet with your computer/shares your computers internet with your phone.
so if i normally dont have internet on my phone.. but then i connect it to my laptop i will have internet on it?
Yes, but only if your laptop already has some kind of internet connection such as WiFi.
ooh nicee... very thanks for helping me..
I think there is some misleading information here:
Tethering is when you're accessing the internet on your PC using the HD2 internet connection and your HD2 data plan.
I think he is doing the opposite. He is being able to access the internet on his HD2 only when he is connected to his PC and is using the PC's internet connection. I think he does not have a data plan for his HD2 because he is on a pre-paid account.
Somebody correct me if this is totally wrong.
Hello,
I would like to ask if there is any tethering app which will allow me to share my wifi internet trough phone via usb to my old computer?
I have Cm10 rom but if it will be neccessary I will change it even to stock because its very important for me. Thanks in advance for help.
The process is called reverse tethering. Did a google search and I think this should work https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.littlelan.ReverseTether.Trial&hl=en
Hmm... I don't think you understood me well.
I will explain...
I have wifi internet in my house but i have not got a possibility to connect my router via cable with my computer which doesnt have wifi.
So I would like to use my phone as wifi adapter (via usb) to have internet on my computer.
U sure that this program is good for me?
Did you enebled usb tetherin?
I think it should be the same way if you were connect to 3G, just connect to wifi network and enable the native usb tethering feature.
