No, using a Windows Mobile app on your Aria isn't going to work. You want to use either the Internet Sharing options under Settings -> Connect to PC or the wireless wifi tethering.
the wireless tethering is in the rom, based on attn1 notes
when I connect aria to pc and select internet sharing, then what is the next step ?

I've never had to use it, in fact I never did try Liberated Rxx. I have CM 6.1 installed and I always use wireless tether. Hopefully someone else can answer this for you.
figured it out, separate app for wireless, works fine.

Hi guys!
I have two desktops (Windows XP and Vista) and one XDA Orbit II.
I want to connect both of these two PCs at the same time to Internet via my XDA.
Is it possible? Do you have any ideas?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance and best regards

Don't think it's possible...
Unless you use something like WMWiFiRouter.

As I know, WMWiFiRouter is only for sharing a connection between a WM device and one desktop (Ad Hoc). Is it wrong?

Thanks a lot! That was a good idea.
I have two PCs connected to my mobile phone so far.
My next problem is to make this connection secure as possible.
WMWiFiRouter only allows me to select WEP, not WPA.
It's a HTC Touch Cruise with WM6.
I would again appreciate if somebody could tell something more about it.
Or maybe I shall ask in the WMWiFiRouter thread? Which of them is actual?
Thank you in advance

I'm not sure how this Internet sharing deal works. Anyone has a step-by-step on how to use it?
Also, is Internet sharing tethering? Is it like the new way to tether in 6.1?

Go to Comm Manager. Click on Internet Sharing... Then follow the prompts.
It's pretty simple:
1) Plug phone into computer and establish a sync
2) Find the Internet Sharing program, open it up, and click: "Connect"
3) Wait for it to say "Connected" and for your computer to establish an IP

Hoping I am in the correct forum and someone can help me out. I purchased a HTC Pure and on ATT. I had a Raphael before and was able to tether fine to my laptop. I can't on my pure and ATT says I now need a Tethering Plan, and that has been the way for 2 years now.
Does anyone know a work around for tethering? Extra software? Tips? Please let me know.
The only problem that I had so far was trying to use Internet Sharing to connect to my laptop. But after doing some research found the solution on the ATT forums. With a registry editor go to [HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings] and delete “ForceCellConnection”. Now when the cell ask what do U want to do with the connection, either Active Sync, Mass Data or Use as Modem there will be a drop down tab to chose how to connect, via Media Net, ATT GSR or ISP. Personally I use Media Net.
must do a soft reset (turn the phone off) after

The HTC pure doesnt have that registry key nor the \internetsharing\setting folder
UH, yeah it does.
Open your Reg Edit program and follow the above instructions. What are you using for Reg Editing?
Check your START screen for Internet Sharing icon. Follow the above instructions.
By the way, you do know that AT$T will smoke you like a cheap cigar if they catch you tethering without a tethering plan.
,
Tethering on a Pure as I write! It works fine, just change the reg key. Make sure you hit internet sharing, then connect on the phone after you plug it into the usb.
Just take out the proxy server.
I tether all the time, always have and never tweaked my registry.

Ok, try this first;
In connection Settings, go to advanced\select networks and set both to MediaNet.
Now go back and see if your proxy can be removed.
Make sure you check "This network connects to internet"
Mine is totally configurable.
Did that.
Still says the same.

MEdia Net

I just did the reg edit and it worked great for me! Super quick and easy. When I connect my Pure to my computer with USB it just asks if I want to use as modem or sync with outlook (I use TF3D so these are the only options I got). Thanks for this, I've been wanting to do this for awhile but never got around to asking
p.s. I tethered on ATT with my Samsung Epix all the time, without the tethering plan, and never got caught/got in trouble for it. knock on wood. The way I see it, I pay a crap ton of $$ for internet on 'premium' device, who are they to tell me how to use it.
To be able to edit Media Net connections you need to do registry edit or install cab. REG EDIT is as follows:
To Unlock Media Net connection settings go to
[HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Destinations\MEdia Net\, change ReadOnly from 1 to 0.
This should do the trick.
At home, I can connect my HD2 to my home wi-fi network, and access the Internet that way.
I have my home computers set up for file sharing, so I can access the files of one computer from another, over that home network.
When the HD2 is connected to that same network, I would assume there is a way to do that with the HD2 as well, in both ways--
1) to access a PC's files from the HD2
2) to access the HD2's files from the PC
(Please note--I know one can do #2 via ActiveSync (USB or Bluetooth), or the "storage card as disk drive" option as well (USB). That is not what I am discussing here though. I am asking how to do that via wi-fi (no AS involvement at all), when the HD2 is connected to the home wi-fi network.) I assume it would necessitate setting up the HD2 somehow for file sharing, but I don't know how to do that.
Besides the default file manager on the HD2, I have three better add-on file managers--Resco (commercial), and Total Commander and GSFinder (both free). One would think that with one or all of those one could do #1, when connected (as the PCs are already set up to share), yet I cannot figure out how.

Does anyone know how to do that?
Remote Access will help you with #2.

If you buy the most recent version of wifi remote access from the ms market place (and tbh i think julien needs the support) you can access an included ftp server as well. Also, wifi remote access will work over 3g/HSDPA if you set the option to allow it. It's all you need really.
I am on HyperDroid 6.0.1 MAGLDR version and am trying to use the Wifi tethering to provide a Wifi access point that my friend's Sony W995 can connect to. I have done this and he can use the internet via my Wifi connection. What I have not been able to do is to copy files between the 2 phones. We used to use Bluetooth but I wanted to try Wifi as we are now further apart and Bluetooth does not connect at this distance.
I have turned on "Network Sharing" on the W995 and set the subnet to 255.255.255.0 (rather than the default 255.255.255.255 - found a website that said this was needed - neither work).
I have ES File Explorer on my Android phone and it cannot see the W995 on the LAN settings (a scan finds nothing).
Does anyone know what I need to set up?
Thanks
Darren .)
You could try airdroid from the market installed on one device and then use the browser on the other to copy files, maybe!!!

I tried airdroid but could not get the w995 to connect to the web address specified in airDroid. I guess i will have to continue to use Bluetooth and leave my phone near my friends's phone
Silly question but did you select wifi tether in airdroid. Like make sure tether is active before starting airdroid?

Not a silly question at all. I looked in airdroid but could not find a tethering option. I had already turned on tethering and got my friend's phone surfing the net via my data connection before trying to run airdroid. AirDroid kept saying wifi is not on.
I did a bit more googling and came across some samba server apps (from which i could connect my phone to my router at home and get my windows 7 PC accessing my sd card wirelessly). I didn't think my friend's w995 had software to access samba shares so that was still no good. I finally found an app called "wifi file explorer" which would detect i was on wifi tethering (also does normal wifi by the way). It would then provide a web server that my friend's w995 could connect to as a simple http://192.168.1.xxx:8000/ address in his w995's web browser. From here he could navigate my sd card and download the relevant files, job done
I tried the same on another friend's Sony w715 but that wouldn't load the main page properly. I will f try some of the "wifi file explorer" options to see if it can make the main page simpler.
Over wifi we transferred a 200MB file in about 8 minutes (if i remember correctly)
Thanks for your help

You can also try setting up FTP file server on Android or set up samba file server on Android.

I had tried a samba server app on my Android phone but i didn't know how to access it from my friend's w995. I also tried the ftp server in "ES File Explorer" but again didn't know how to access it on the w995. Both of the samba and ftp methods could be accessed fine on my windows PC.
