Help :(( - Networking

I have a laptop with wifi.My question is:Can i create acces point with the wifi of the laptop and use this acces point for sharing internet (Lan card,local area connection) and connect with my phone (samsung wave)?? im with win. xp.

Think it should be possible with Windows 7

Also under Windows XP you should be able to create a socalled AdHoc Network. So you can connect via WiFi to your laptop.
There is a good manual when you just google "create ad hoc"

How can i do that?
Network Browser
I'm using an app for that: http://www.vmobilesoftware.com/NetworkBrowser.htm
It's quite unexpensive and stable. Give it a try, they give you two weeks to make up your mind.

Tethering and Retheting on Windows

I just got a Tattoo.. I think new users have always problem.
Somebody help me for the following:
1. I want to access internet at home on my laptop running Windows 7 by TETHERING with my Tattoo GPRS(EDGE). Is that USB connection and selecting 'Mobile Network Sharing'?? But I am still not able to success.
2. At my work place we have wired network, so I want to access Internet on my Tattoo by USB connection to a PC, just opposite of Tethering, let's say RETHETING. but I could not find anywhere.
Thnx

Thank you everybody. I resolve my 1st problem. Yes, it is just USB connection and selecting 'Mobile Network Sharing'. My problem was because of not able to install the NDIS driver properly. After resolving the driver problem it is working fine.
But I am still looking for my 2nd problem RETHETING

I'm not sure if it will work that way... I know with a Windows Mobile device you can, but never tried under Android. Perhaps there is an option somewhere in the HTC Sync program?
There definitely isn't an option in HTC Sync to do this. In fact, I don't know of any way of generically sharing your internet connection over USB. If your work PC has a Wi-Fi card, you could easily share the internet connection over an ad-hoc network.
Edit: In principle, you could also share your internet connection over Bluetooth but I'm pretty sure the Tattoo doesn't support the necessary Bluetooth profile(s) for such connections.

I think Wi-fi ad-hoc connection is for rooted androids only and I don't found any rooted tattoo till date. I tried another option, using Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop and sharing Wi-fi. But still unable to success browsing, eventhough my phone can be connected with my Laptop through this connectify.
Anybody have success browsing it kindly share.

Uh, what? I'm sharing my internet connection over Wi-Fi with my MacBook right now and my Tattoo can connect to it and access the internet just fine.
Edit: You're probably thinking of android-wifi-tether, which lets you share your phone's 3G/2G mobile connection via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

If you are talking about tethering, it is OK, I am just satisfied with USB tethering, it is working now, but What I am actually looking for is about RETHETING just converse connection of that tethering. (I know there is no word like RETHETING BUT I don't know what is the right term of just converse connection of tethering.) The problem is, I want to share wired Internet at my working place with my HTC tattoo phone as I have limited GPRS subscription to save some money and to enjoy speed of that wired internet.
I thought running Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop connected to that wired Internet as a Wi-fi hotspot then connected by this android phone (Tattoo) is the right solution.
Yes, it is connected pinging is ok but could not access internet from my Tattoo. May be some firewall problem or something I cannot figure out. If some one have solution it is most welcome.

No, I was talking about "retheting"; my MacBook has a wired (ethernet) connection to the internet and is sharing it over Wi-Fi, which my Tattoo can connect to and use.
I did some reading up on Connectify (and was surprised to find that Micro$oft still hasn't quite implemented the feature natively on Windows yet) and it should work. I don't have a Wi-Fi card on my desktop PC so I can't test it myself but perhaps you are having something like a firewall problem.

I have tried with Connectify and also Virtual Router on my Windows 7 but could not success. I think you are lucky to own a macbook. My Windows 7 is RC so it might be because of that or Tattoo may lack something.
Regarding that android-wifi-tether, it reports as rootted device required and could not help my requirement.
I thought you were talking about an usb internet sharing connections...
If you want to do it via wifi, is pretty easy, since ALL windows have the ad-hoc functionality made by default. Problem is that if you use it with your wifi chipset then you won't be able to conect directly to other wifis if it is your main connect unless you buy another wifi card for this purpose...
in windows 7 you can find this functionality under the connection center... in windows xp is a little bit difficult because you have to configure the adapter into the wifi adapter properties in network connections tabs.

Yes. I actually want that USB internet sharing. But till date no one is seem to success it.. So, while waiting for this solution.. I am just looking for alternative, that sharing through wifi.

I also thought that it should be very easy, and tried all possible means that I know but could not success. One funny thing is, I can get IP address resolved of any URL on my tattoo after wifi connection. It means it can reach DNS server and can resolve IP address but still could not able to browsing. May be some firewall or Antivirus is blocking the browsing on my Windows 7 pc I need to check thoroughly.
If someone have good explanation, it will be very helpful... thanks.
Wifi is working
I was making my laptop complicated by setting 3 static IP networks..as my work place has 3 gateways and I manually change gw when required. I clean it up and set to only one. Now Internet through Wifi of Laptop is OK I am using Connectify on Windows7.
Thx for the patience.
But still waiting for solution on USB "Retheting"

You got to install wifi router software in your laptop and then through wifi to connect your hd
If you have Win7 you can use Connectify wich is a free routersoftware so you can set up your own accesspoint.
Win7 and Vista are more or less the same right? i guess you should visit http://www.connectify.me/ and check if your Vista is compatibel.

[Q] How to use PC internet connection from Android?

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?

[Q] wireless sharing of labtop internet

I Have a windows xp sp3 on my labtop and I use a 3g dongle to connect to internet...but I can't figure out how to share my internet over wifi to be enable to search internet on my NST....I created an ad hoc using my labtop dell wireless manager and shared my internet but It seems like my NST can't find the network (despite the fact that my Nokia N82 finds it and connetcts to web) so I used the connectify app to share my internet but that didn't work either...(It may be me who can't configure the software. I don't know) ...seems like The NST can only find the routers and DSL modems not ad hoc networks...do u guys have any suggestions ????
It's possible that it doesn't support adhoc mode. there a virtual access point app for windows floating around, Google it. If your wifi card supports it, enjoy.

If you want to fiddle, try http://nookdevs.com/NookColor_Enable_Adhoc_Networking
It's about NC, you might need another wpa_supplicant for NST tho.
mind if I ask you the name of the app ??
http://www.mypublicwifi.com/publicwifi/en/index.html here you are.
Thank u ...but the software just works for windows 7...my windows is xp....
