Has anyone connect the HD2 to the Cradlepoint successfully? The HD2 broadcasts only adhoc wifi and I need it to broadcast infrastructure wifi so I can connect my TouchPad to it. The Cradlepoint would allow this on some phones so I'm curious if anyone tried it before I buy it. I'm not interested in rooting my phone with Android for now. Thanks in advance.

Alright, so I know how to broadcast wifi with my MyTouch 3G already using Android Wifi Tether (http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/)
However, I want to be able to broadcast as an Access Point, not as an Ad-hoc network.
Is there a patch or fix or program that does this? Or some sort of other setting that will enable it.
Basically, I want to broadcast Wifi so another Phone (Or PSP or NDS) can connect to it (Because they do not see the Ad-hoc network).
I cannot find anything that does this specifically.
Thanks for the help!
Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm extremely new to all this.
I am trying to set up my MyTouch to be a wifi hotspot for my rooted Nook Color. From what I've been reading and experiencing in my efforts to get it to work, is that the NC doesn't recognize ad hoc wireless connections.
Is there any way around this?
Thanks for the help!

Sounds like you need to look for an android-wifi-tether application.
This program enables tethering (via wifi and bluetooth) for "rooted" handsets running android (such as the Android DevPhone 1). Clients (your laptop for example) can connect via wifi (ad-hoc mode) or bluetooth and get access to the internet using the 3G, 2G mobile connection or (in case you are using bluetooth) the wifi connection which is established by the handset.

Not what he's looking for. He's looking for an app that will broadcast an actual network, not just an ad-hoc connection, which that app does.
I have an Asus Transformer Android tablet, and expected to be able to use WMWiFiRouter to connect to the Internet until I get an Android phone in the next few months.
Only the Transformer can't see or use ad-hoc connection sharing from a phone or anything else for that matter. Bluetooth is greyed out on WMWiFiRouter and isn't even an option on ICS. Android phones share through infrastructure WiFi, not ad-hoc.
There is no host USB port at this time, so those two methods are my only way of getting Internet to the tablet.
Anyone know of a way to get infrastructure WiFi from an Imagio, or turn on the bluetooth connection sharing? PDANet also doesn't have the bluetooth option on this phone.
My HD2 has the Wi-Fi Router App which provides a hotspot for internet connection. I can connect my laptop to it but my TouchPad can't. I understand that the Wi-Fi Router is only for adhoc connections and that's why my laptop can do it. The TouchPad can only connect to a "regular" wifi. My question: Is there any wifi app for the HD2 that would allow a non-adhoc wifi connection? Thanks in advance.

me too, I have HD2 running wmo 6.5, wifi sharing only works with my thinkpad, but not the touchpad. i never got the wifi sharing working when running on android either.
I use the built in WM router program & connect it to other phone devices via bluetooth.
The problème with Touchpad vs Hd2 is that Touchpad can't see Hd2 in bluetooth mode and Touchpad can't see HD2 router cauz in ad hoc mode and not infrastructure
So 2 possibilities
- First Hp open the bluetooth protocol to all bluetooth devices, and let the webos see ad hoc wifi routers
- 2nd maybe an ap will be done in order to let the hd2 creating an infrastucture router link
to be continued
Is it possible, to be connected to a WiFi with your android device, and share it yourself while being connected to it? Because i can only share ADHOC over my laptop, which i can only connect to with my rooted android, and my new android phone cant connect to it... help please.

What exactly are you trying to do? Using something like "Wifi teather for root users" you should be able to set up your phone as a wifi router. Clients (your PC) would get internet access via wifi and your phones cell network connection.

Yep, so tethering will share your mobile internet connection (GPRS, 3G, ...) with other WiFi-capable devices like your notebook. And when tethering is on, you can't connect with your mobile phone to a WiFi network because the WiFi chip can only operate in "client" or tethering mode (as long as I know).
Anyone else think that wifi tether uses way for data than it should?
