Your laptop doesnt have wifi?

I asked a similar question sometime ago, please check this thread:

The conclusion was: if you want to use your laptop's internet on the HD2 (in some kind of reverse tethering), the best is to use a software like VirtualRouter or Connectify to make an Acess Point from your wifi card that your HD2 can easily connect to. I am sorry, but there's not an easy USB solution like you have for Windows Mobile. I hope one day they to it, though.

You shouldnt need any special extra software. It just might be something that doesnt work in the kernal at the moment.
Native android devices can do it aslong as they are rooted.
Lets not say it isnt possible as that makes android sound gimp

My problem is: in my room..wifi is only enough for my lap ( HD2 can connect the wifi but because the wifi signal too weak...) and i'm using internet in my lap by wifi...so i cant using wifi tethering...hic....any solution??

[Q] USB tethering (T-Mobile, UK)

The wi-fi hotspot works great on my phone but I can't get USB tethering to work. I wouldn't bother with tethering but the awful battery life on the Desire HD makes this an attractive option since it gives me Internet access on my laptop while the battery charges on my phone (obviously, wi-fi sharing does not do this).
But when I use the "USB tethering" option when I connect my phone to my laptop, it doesn't work. I initially got a device driver error but now, when I connect the phone, I get nothing - no errors, it connects, but nothing happens and I can't access the Internet.
Is this a T-Mobile (UK) issue? Has T=M disabled USB tethering? Or do I need a driver? Or does USB tethering just not work (for anyone)?

Did you install HTC Sync? It install the necessary drivers for USB tethering to work.

Do you have to do this ?
The reason I ask is that I'm thinking if I'm travelling and I want to quickly hook my phone up to someone's machine and do tethering via the USB I won't be able to do it if I don't have HTC Sync, if that is the case that would be balls !

Which version of Windows are you using ?

silly question, but why don't you connect the device to your PC in charging mode only, then fire up the WIFI hotspot?
Or does this not work?

Can you tell me how to install HTC Sync on my Desire HD?

[Q] USB Reverse Tethering

I was using connectify for phone but it makes my internet in pc sooo slow. Are there any way to get internet to phone via usb interface? Found some apps in play store but I think I would need another app in pc side

Probably with some hacking but I don't think it's possible as of now. Your only optionsare WiFi and mobile data.

Well if you have a laptop or a desktop with a Wi-Fi adapter, you can try this method: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/38835-42-create-virtual-wifi-router-internet-windows
I used it with this Wi-Fi adapter and it works just great.

[Q] How to get WIFI Tether to work? (Use phone as a connection to wifi)

Ok so my WiFi adapter broke but my phone can still connect to the WiFi, same with all other devices. I borrowed my brothers phone Xperia Z and I was able to WiFi tether with it (Connected to wifi on phone shared with computer NOT T-MOBILE DATA) But his WiFi card decided to do the same thing so now he uses his phone for his WiFi adapter. So I got my Android LG G2 and disabled mobile data pluged it into my computer and turned on wifi. Then I turned on tethering and WiFi was dissabled on the phone and a Error message popped up saying Mobile data is dissabled. Is there anyway I can tether my phone with wifi enabled to my computer I havent had a connection on my computer for weeks to the internet and I cannot replace my WiFi card at this time. Any help is apreactied in advance.
Thanks ~Reece
