Connecting to Laptop through WiFi dongle

So I bought myself a WiFi dongle (802.11g) so that I could surf the net/pick up emails on my XDA by using a WiFi link to my laptop which is connected to the internet via ADSL. The laptop recognises the WiFi dongle but I can't get a connection between the laptop and the XDA. Both are in open mode with no security (i'll get the system working and then add security). The XDA can find the signal, says it is conencted, and then drops it again. I know it's not a range/power issue as they are right beside each other! Can anyone offer me advice on how to get the two devices talking please?
If you want internet on your XDA then just setup Active Sync via Bluetooth or Wifi. (AS 3.x)

Well I'm slightly further on than I was earlier - I have now managed to 'connect' to my laptop but I still cant 'see' the internet through the XDA. I can surf using bluetooth over Active synh but the range is too small so I want to use WiFi. I've run the internet sharing wizard but still no joy - what do I have to do?

Internet connection through the USB

I used to have an internet connection through the usb cable, and now I don't after making an unknown change. I can connect to wifi, but wanted to still have usb internet connections as some hotels I stay in do not have wifi. I've been messing around with the setting>connections, but no luck. I am also wondering if any of you Cingular customers have been able to connect with Edge even though you have the WIX blocked for the number. Mines connected and I was wondering if I will be charged.
Not sure how it will be called in an english ROM since I am running O2 GERMANY but you should be able to get this activated under START -> PROGRAMS ... look for an icon what indicates something like INTERNET SHARING. Click on that icon and activate Internet via USB again.
INTERNET SHARING, i just found that today now i am using my desktop thru the 8525.
Actually I am trying to go the other way. I would like the internet from the laptop.
when connected to activesync you automaticly have the laptops network on your pda unless you turned it off
All I get is "Cannot connect with current connection settings." I've tried all the different setting and still can't get an internet connection. Funny thing is that the HTC Home weather updates while connected, but not the internet. The wifi has no problems, but again a hotel might not have wifi.
Hi
I have the same problem, IE will not find any web site either via usb or wifi (ok via 3G) HTC home weather works fine. I then installed Mozilla minimo and I can surf with out problams. I think there must a be a hidden IE setting/registry problem that I don't know how to access

Wizard WiFi Question

Good Morning all. I have searched for days, not only this site, but many others, and as of yet, no appropriate solution. Hopefully someone more versed than me with the Wizard might help.
Here is the scenario....I am able to connect my HTC Wizard to the WiFi of my roommates router. He is connected to DSL 3.5 Mbps. On the Wizard I can surf the internet, no problem. I have a computer in my room, but it does not have a wifi card. I am wanting to use my Wizard to connect my computer to the internet via USB, using the connection (WiFi) that exists on my Wizard.
So far, I can connect to my computer through active sync and browse the files on my Wizard. I also am able to tether my Wizard to my computer via Internet Sharing on my EDGE connection. I do notice when I connect my Wizard that is connected to WiFi it shows a LAN connection in the taskbar at bottom right, however, when i try to navigate to any web page in internet explorer, google chrome, or firefox, it comes up with the error like I am not connected.
I know there is a simple fix for this, but I am frustrated and tired of searching to no avail. Thanks in advance many times over.

Use LTE while connected to WiFi Camera

So, I recently got a camera that connects to my phone via WiFi to use as viewer. When connected to the WiFi camera, I can't surf the internet. I figured when the phone didn't detect internet connection through the WiFi it would use the mobile/LTE connection for internet. This seems to not be the case. Does anybody know of a way to force using the mobile/LTE connection while the phone thinks it's connected to a WiFi network? Thanks in advance.
Put the wireless camera on a network and get remote access to it or use download booster which should work as a back up internet
Thanks for the suggestion. I can’t put the cam on the network, it doesn’t have an interface. All settings need to be adjusted through the phone. It’s a Xiaomi MiSphere.
Download booster, on the other hand, is worth looking into. I took a hiatus from Android for a while, just got back into it with the GS8 so relearning things.
If I understand your question correctly, the phone connects directly to the camera via WiFi. So as far as the phone can tell, the camera is a router with no internet connection.
I have the same problem.. I need to connect to my car via WiFi without internet connection, but I want to stay online via mobile network. It has worked well on my previous OnePlus 3 with the stock rom, but SGS8+ doesn't support this feature. I have tried to turn on "Keep Mobile data turned on" option in "Developer options", but it isn't helpful. The Mobile Data is on while connected to the WiFi, but the Internet connection doesn't work via Mobile network. Google Chrome and all other apps say, I am offline without the Internet.
Any solution?
