WiFiRouter G1
With the help of a couple of other people I have got this working on my G1 in adhoc mode. It acts as an access point to allow tethering. Laptop --> WiFi-->3G/Edge
This will take advantage of the 3G connection and use the wifi as the local lan.
I DID NOT do all the work on this.
Hope it helps

thnx for replying.....bt tatz nt wat i wanna do..............i want to share my pc internet to the laptop.....
in detail:
connect my ppc via usb to the pc tat has internet thn enabling the usb to wifi option in wmwifi router so it can act as an access point...thn connecting my laptop to it....!!!!
now the thing is my laptop connects bt has no internet..!!!!

THIS FORUM IS AS DEAD AS A COW DUNG for being so huge...!!!!! shissssss

Just get a twisted - pair utp cable, and plug one side in your pc, one in your laptop.
Share the connection of the pocket pc, and your ready to go.

helloo............the idea is to make my ppc a router..!!!!!

Look for how to turn ur PPC as USB wifi
or
Make things simple, get a router/access point.
Enable Internet Connection Sharing in the PC. Google how to share internet in win and u will find it.
I think this is the simplest and the best solution.
Also u might want to have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377047

You want to what? Why would you need to share the internet on your PC to your laptop? Just get a $30 router from WalMart for that.
If you want to turn your PPC into a router, WMWiFiRouter is what you need. But this lets you connect your laptop to the internet over your phone's DATA CONNECTION!

I have used WiFiRouter for a long time now, it is alright aside from draining the battery beyond anything imaginable and turning my HTC Touch Pro (Alltel) into a toaster over...
I have heard about XDA releasing a Free version of wifi sharing for vga devices like my Alltel HTC Touch Pro... where is the link to this, I googled/searched/went to Engadget/Gizmodo etc and can't seem to find it...
thanks

could it have anything to do with the way you explain it.
what are you trying to do???
is the Laptop going to access pc internet thw ppc or do you want both to use cell data?

I wish you'd ask your friends to help me I cant get it working

Share home internet connexion in Wifi

Hi everyone,
Today, I try to share my ADSL internet connexion in Wifi via my HD2 but in vain.
What I'd like to do is to share the internet connexion from my PC to my HD2 with USB cable and then to share this connexion by Wifi to others PC or PPC. i-e, to use my HD2 as a really router-wifi will do.
Do you guys have already done this?
thank you

You can't do it mate. The wifi router on the HD2 will ONLY route its own data connection. You need a wifi router for you want. Sorry.

ok,
but anyone knows a software which can handle it? or at least, is it possible to share the connexion from the computer to the HD2? Or do I have to forget about it right now?

Sorry mate, but yeah. Forget about it. I'd say that I'd eat my phone if anyone ever finds a way of doing that, but I just can't bring myself to even imagine eating my lovely HD2

thank you
brain cleared !

Hi dude, are you ready to eat your lovely HD2
I found that software : wmwifirouter (actually someone told me to use it)
and it does exactly what I want.
Here is the tip to made the connexion working : link
there is a 21 days trial version and then the software is 19.99€
I want to see the video of you eating your phone on youtube... (Just kidiing )
PS : since I am a new user, I can't post outside links. Where can I ask to change that ? thank you

You can only connect one device at a time though..

You'll have to settle with me being happy to be corrected mate. I'm about to eat something, but it's more likely to be made by my mate at Subway than by HTC!

That changes when you've made a few more posts. Not sure exactly how many, but it's not a lot. (I've got 7 in my head for some reason, but it may be 10).

There's only 8 posts above yours. Surely that's not too much for you to read yourself? The answer is 3 posts up from yours.

Yes, but i don't understand quite well. Corect me if i am wrong, WMWifiRouter is software for Cell phone, I need software for PC or an explanation how to. My PC is an acces point. Under Win 7 i created a wireless network connection (I have Asus P5K-E WI FI AP MB) and connected my HD2 but when i start opera i get error massage about connection.

Well, I did it. Now I can connect to PC by my Leo and browse internet through my PC WiFi connection and ADSL modem
No extra charge!
It is quite simple under win 7.
One should first make bridge connecton between Local area connection and Wireless network connection. IP adresses should be configured manualy.
In phone first activate Wi-Fi, go to advanced>>change network>>computer-to-computer>>network adapters>>Broadcom802.11 DHD Network adapter and set IP according to PC. Then go to connections and set IP also.

You can even do simpler, you just need to right-click on your LAN connection, select properties, advanced, click share connection, connect your wifi connection in the dropdown below if it appears. IP can be dynamic in this case, the PC willmake a DHCP server.
It's not what the original poster wanted to do though. He wanted to use the HD2 basically as an "outgoing" USB wifi adapter for a PC that doesn't have one.

Nope. I don't see that dropdown menu. But, never mind. I have one question for you, I can't browse directory structure of my PC from phone or to connect to PC as a client. Is there any program for that, or an explanation. Tnx.

Connecting My Phone To The Internet via Computer

Hello,
I am using an X10i. I've been wondering, are there any ways i can connect my phone to the internet using my computer's modem?
I am not trying to connect my computer to the internet by using my phone as a modem. Do not teach me how to do it. My question and that question are two different questions.
Thanks.

If u have a mac u can use its wirless as a hotspot if u connect it with internet cable. I do that for my phone. Hope this helps
Cheers
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

yeah ,turn your pc into a wifi hotspot..use softwares like virtual wifi router for windows 7
Note:it will work only if u use a cable to connect ur pc and have a jobless wifi in your pc..
you can also connect using bluetooth,i tried once but failed ,didnt tried much,it wasnt worth that much effort!!

pls dont be naive... not every wifi card supports wifi hotspot even with special applications and tools, and the native windows 7 could make only ad-hoc whis is not supported by android 2.1 or 2.2 as I know...I've read many forums and finaly bought wifi router and what I can say its that its really worth to have it...

yeah wifi card also imp..but most modern laptops and PC are quipped with such wifi cards
I can always use my Vaio for wifi hotspots with my X10..never faced any problems!!

It's not possible through USB. It possible with the stock function of win7 or software for your pc. (Only if you got wireless wifi card in it ofcourse)

FYI I no you didn't want to use your phone as a modem but just in case this is the best way Barnacle Wifi [email protected] http://szym.net/barnacle/ It's not in the market. Just a FYI.
If this is helpful please click the Thank you button. Thanks good luck

I wonder why there isn't still an app which lets you use your pcs internet through bluetooth?

I'm using Windows 7 native wifi sharing right now, it broadcasts as a regular wifi network with WPA-2. I use it for phones, consoles, etc

Because it will eat batter, no far distance supported and your internet will be ssssssssssssssssssssuper slow.

^^^This is true. At 2.1Mb/sec of throughput, the Bluetooth will be the slow cog in that wheel of connection.

AGAIN!!! Not every wifi card support it!!! I ve tried ale possibilities (ad hoc, bridge) without succeed...with ipod touch 2G, samsungs i8510, i8910 everything worked, so the problem is only with X10 and android!!! You could make wifi hotspot only with newer or supported cars (my NTB is 3 years old and has unsupported intel wifi card) so this is the deal...

It is possible on an HTC phone, so I'm a bit surprised that there isn't an app to allow us to do this.

I wasn't arguing that all cards support it, I was just saying that when it IS compatible with your card, it isn't adhoc.

Try using Connectify on your computer. It is free. If it manages to create the hotspot on your wireless card, your mobile will be able to use the new hotspot connection created. It has worked for at least 3 of my friends and it enables me to share connections on my laptop no matter where I am.

Tethering PC to Android to Laptop -- HOW?

I would like to share internet from my PC (which is connected to the internet through LAN) to my Smartphone (Samsung Ace 2 - GT-I8160). I would like to do that using USB cable since my PC doesn't have WIFI or Bluetooth. I know you can buy devices to enable WIFI and Bluetooth but i don't want to buy them. And then i want to share the internet from my smartphone to my laptop.
I download a program called Android Reverse Tethering on my computer to tether from my PC to my Android phone. That is working fine. But then when i try to tether from the Android (which is now connected to the internet via the PC) to the laptop via WIFI tethering, it connects but it says there is no internet access (you know, the exclamation mark on the signal strength sign at the bottom left corner of screen - Windows 7).
So yeah...how can i successfully tether from PC (LAN)--->Android (USB cable)--->Laptop (WIFI)?

he
hey did you ever get an answer? I would like to know that too.

Guys... seriously... The first thread in this forum, says to SEARCH. There are MULTIPLE tutorials in this very forum outlining this process. Please search for stuff before you post anything. The second thread in line, right under the ONLY stickied thread in this forum, is a reverse tethering tutorial. At one point, your thread was probably listed right next to it.

Hey buddy! So nice of you to reply! I did search before asking on here. Actually, that's how i got here...one of my fruitless searches led me here. You see....if you'd "thoroughly" or at least carefully read my query.. . you would realize that what i am asking is quite different from what you"think" i am asking. I know how to reverse tether...that is, share internet from PC to Android. That is not what i would like to know. What i would like to know is how to tether from PC to Android TO LAPTOP. You see, you missed to last to words. But that's OK, it happens. Thanks for your reply again.

Why in the world would you tether from PC, to Android, to the laptop? What would the point be? Just tether the laptop to the PC. What is the need to put the Android device in the middle of that equation? That's probably why you hadn't received any responses, because it doesn't make any sense. You can edit the process of the tethering tutorial to make it work on a laptop, regardless of OS, as well.
"I would like to share internet from my PC (which is connected to the internet through LAN) to my Smartphone (Samsung Ace 2 - GT-I8160). " that is the first line of your post.
You probably will not be able to achieve what you are asking, because the Android OS doesn't recognize the tethered connection on your phone as an actual connection (that's why a bunch of apps can't use the signal). Have you tried to use a wi-fi tethering app (Barnacle Wi-Fi Tether is the best option)? You also will need to be rooted for all this to work (especially since your carrier probably blocks Wi-Fi tethering altogether if your data plan doesn't allow it, regardless of whether that connection is a data connection or a Wi-Fi connection).

And how would i be able to tether from PC to laptop directly without disconnecting the LAN cable from the PC and connecting it to my laptop...hence, making the PC "internet-less".?

Yeah, just downloaded it. Doesnt seem to connect. It just says, either, "starting..." and never starts. Or it goes from "starting..." to "waiting for WIFI connection to be disabled..." and never starts.
