I would like to know if one of you is able to make "Internet Pass-through" working with Android on our HD2 as it works with Winmo and activesync or W7 sync center.
I use Darkstone Desire Beta2 and when USB cable is connected between PC and Hd2 a connection menu propose "Internet Pass-through" but i cannot get access to Internet.
Is this feature supported, if yes how to configure it and in which build?
Thank you.

Hello,
I'm in a strange situation where my HTC Blackstone (or sometimes my HTC TytnII) is far from my notebook and connected to another PC via USB which work as internet gateway.
Here in Italy HSDPA/UMTS connection is very poor and very often internet connection goes down and I need to restart it manually.
Is there a way to remotely startup internet sharing connection???
At this moment I'm using MyMobiler through activesync. When internet goes down I disable device LAN interface (this cause activesync to automatically startup) and through mymobiler I restart internet sharing connection.
I hope you can suggest me a better way to do this!!!
in other words...
it would be great if I could use my htc blackstone as modem... so that I could start connection each time I want.
Actually through ICS you can use ActiveSync OR ICS...
Hi,
I have 2 questions:
1) How to use (to share) the internet connection (3G) established by my blackstone on my Laptop, using bluetooth? On the blackstone, the screen for internet sharing only appears when I connect the mobile to the laptop with an USB cable. At that time it's possible to chose the type of connection USB or bluetooth. My question: is there a way to get this screen (internet sharing) on the mobile without pluggin the USB cable in order to use directly the bluetooth connection?
2) In the same way I would like to use (to share) the 3G internet connection setup by my blackstone on my HTC Kaiser (WM6.0) also using bluetooth.
Is it possible? Someone could explain the procedure?
The reason to do that, is to use Skype. If I try to use Skype on my blackstone, it's refused by the Telecom Operator. When I use Skype on my laptop sharing an 3G internet connection, it's allowed... I suppose it would be allowed too if I run Skype on my Kaiser sharing the 3G connection of my blackstone...
I know that is possible to do it with WiFi. Bluetooth would be better...
Many thanks for your answers.

In the programs listing you should have a program called "internet sharing" which allows you to select USB or Bluetooth. I haven't used the bluetooth setting but it has a settings option so should be able to do what you want.
Yeah i just select Bluetooth rather than USB connection and press connect.
Pair your laptop to your phone first then press connect, then on your laptop, click the taskbar icon and click quick connect > Network Access and then select your phone.
Thank you all for your helpful answers. I succeeded to connect my blackstone to my laptop using bluetooth and sharing the 3G internet connection.
However, I didn't succeed to share the 3 G internet connection setup by my blackstone on my HTC Kaiser (see my point 2 in my previous post). I succeeded to establish a Bluetooth connection between them, but I never succeeded to share the connection. (The Kaiser runs on WM6.0).
Any idea?
Many thanks for your help.

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

You mean:
Internet from computer (via LAN) to Internet for PPC? By cable?
Make a search for: WMWifiRouteur! Many option avaible to do this!
Hello!
I'm using Blackstone with WM6.5.3 and I sync by USB cable to my WinXP computer.
When connected I browse on WM using internet LAN connection of my PC.
Now I installed Froyo 2.2 on my Blackstone.
Is possible to connect by USB cable and use PC internet connection, instead of 3G connection?
thanks
No, you can't. WiFi works, though.
ok, thanks

Seeing as I don't have a router, I set up an ad-hoc network to share internet on my WM, which works fine. But Android can't see Ad-hoc networks.
Windows 7 can create full access points instead of an hoc networks, but I'm stuck with Vista.
Any ideas?
