Tether my laptop to my ps3 using PDANet. I need help - Networking

I have the HTC EVO 4g LTE phone with PDANet 3.5. I'm trying to tether it from laptop to my ps3. I did the following steps:
Set the network to allow sharing to local area connection.
On my ps3, I went to wired connection, custom, and automic throughout the set up, etc.
Now my issue is when I test it, I sometimes get failed or succeeded. But when I get succeeded for ip address and internet connection, I get a fail for ps network.
Please help

Kinda new to the board so If you could send me a private message I might be able to find this again.. thanks
Have a look at chainfire's app which allows you to do it through wifi:

Wi-fi only?
This link appears to be wi-fi only.. will it work with the Sprint Network.. ?
Yeah, what it does is convert your Mogul's WiFi into an access point. Your laptop will access your Sprint connection as though it were connecting to your wireless router at home.
if my laptop is wireless?
I wouldnt need to use my phone if my latop is Wi-Fi.. Guess what I was wanting is a way to use my laptop using the sprint network, for when I cant get Wi-Fi.
I thought is was possable but I must have been mistaken

This is the point. Your Mogul will be your WiFi access point that will use Sprint internet connection. This is for when you CANNOT get WiFi with your laptop.
OMG !
I'll try it one last time...
1. Your laptop (as you just confirmed) is capable of receiving WiFi.
2. Your Mogul receives Sprint's data connection.
Unless you are not aware, your Mogul is also capable of receiving WiFi (like your laptop). What chaninfire's program does is make your Mogul capable of SENDING a WiFi signal while connected to Sprint so that your laptop will receive it. Your laptop will be connecting to Sprint's network through Mogul's WiFi signal. In other words your Mogul becomes a wireless router.
OK. i get it... Sorry.. was confused
Didnt mean to sound like a idiot.. but I was lost thinking that I could only use Wi-Fi.. But now know I can connect to the Sprint network and using wi-fi to connect my Laptop make perfecr sense.. now if I can just figure out how to get it working.. I'll take a lok at the like you sent me.. If I remember it looked confusing but I'm sure its not as bad as it looks... thanks a lot

The program is super simple. I use it to connect my iPod Touch to the net.

If you follow the instructions you will also unlock the internet sharing app. Once you have followed the instructions in the thread about chainfires app, to share your internet over USB,do the following.
1) terminate the activesync app on your handset
2) Run the internet sharing application
3) As soon as its done connecting,plug in the USB cable.
4) Enjoy the internet. A similar procedure can also be used to connect via bluetooth,but you get better speed over USB or via WiFi.
If you want to use wifi,you can either follow the adhoc method listed in the thread,or you can use a wireless access point. To use a wireless accesspoint,set your WAPs local IP address to 192.168.0.2 Internet connection sharing will want to be 192.168.0.1 Now you need to connect your mogul to the WiFi network,and connect your PC to the wifi network. Go into the network properties and set your pc to 192.168.0.x where x is an unused address. Set the gateway and DNS servers to 192.168.0.1 and your on the internet. As far as I know,this should work with multiple computers on your network,and it will connect up easily and seamlessly when you flip the wifi switch on your mogul.
From the WMWifiRouter topic:
Sprint HTC Mogul/SERO Notes
It seems Sprint is up to shenanigans in regards to tethering for SERO users. Those of you running Sprint ROMs should navigate to the following registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing" and delete the string value named "Extension". This will allow you to connect to the Internet via the Internet Sharing app without the dreaded error 67/authentication errors. Previous to this fix, Mogul SERO users would have to connect to the Internet via another method (such as starting Internet Explorer first) before pressing the Connect button in the the Internet Sharing application.
If you're really paranoid (it has been concluded these entries have no meaning when using Internet Sharing), using a registry editor, navigate to the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\WModem" key, and set the "CheckProfile", "Multi-NAI" and "WModemDUN" DWORDS to a decimal value of "0".

WMWifiRouter does this for you automatically, but that isn't much help if you want to share via USB instead of WiFi. The above solution should work with USB as well, and the error 67 goes away. GL
on internet sharing... should it be set to phone as modem or sprint pcs?

With the Mogul you can have your Wifi card on and still be on Sprints EVDO network at the same time. Basically you are broadcasting the EVDO connection wirelessly. I use it on my laptop and get pretty good download speeds. It pretty much like using the Sprint EVDO connection data cards...You have to go into the adapter settings under the connections tab and give it a static IP address (ie 192.168.1.9)
Work with Verizon?
It seems like all of the posts speak about Sprints network, do these methods work with Verizon?
Are there any methods specific to Verizon?
I just signed up with for a SERO account and have one major question regarding the wifi router app... Does it put the phone into "tether" mode? In other words, will sprint be able to detect that you are sharing your connection or does it simply bridge the phone's EV-DO connection to its wifi connection?

It's a bridge but Sprint can always detect it if they wish. A guy over in the WMWifiRouter topic says he has been tethering for quite a while this way and hasn't gotten a bill for it.
Oh So simple.. Bluetooth connection
Well I Got my Mogul like 2 months ago and just stumbled across the internet sharing app and to my suprise it worked.... No Xtra software required
I have a macbook 13'in w 2g ram, bluetooth and all that. I use my mogul with my mac and it works like a charm wish i had EVDO in the area but it is good for now....
Step one: Pair your mogul with your computer.
Step Two: Make sure you Have a connection to the net on your mogul. Use ie to go to a page on your phone (otherwise it will say your username and pass are not right)
Step Three:Open internet sharing on your mogul. Make sure your PC connection is: Bluetooh Pan and the Network connection is: Sprint PCS
Step Four: Tap the connect tab on your phone
Step Five:After the internet sharing has a connection to the net, go to the bluetooth settings on your computer, Select you phone and connect
There you have it Tethering VIA bluetooth with no Xtra software.
here is a question.....what if i need to connect a desktop to the internet using the mogul? how do i go about that? everything is about wifi and there seems to be nothing about connecting a desktop to it.
can someone give me pretty detailed instructs on how as i have never done this before.
thanks
I use pdanet for Verizon Titan. It works very well and simple. Simply connect through usb or bluetooth and bamn..you are connected. It also does not charge you any tethering fee....but acquiring pdanet is a cost unless you can find it somewhere....
problem is I dont know how to "simply" connect through the usb. Im pretty ignorant where this stuff is concerned. is there any free ware that does what pdanet does? not that im a cheapO but hey money saved is money earned right?

Internet sharing from MAC machine to G1

Hi,
I have a mac mini sharing its internet connection on Ethernet to almost all the wireless devices.
I enable "Internet sharing" on the mac to send out a wireless signal. Basically all the devices with a wifi card could connect to the mac and get internet access. I had a ipod touch, it can access to internet through the mac. I had a white English G1, it also works.
But now, a German HTC dream (DREA110 PVT 32B) can connect to the shared network, it gets IP, no problem, but it can not access to internet, web browsing does not work, PING doesn't work. Interestingly, this German G1 can access to internet through the AP in the library and at my home.
What is the problem with this G1, do you guys have any idea? Thanks in advance.
No idea?
Does anyone else have this problem?
Dealing with this now. We're at a hotel and are sharing the hotspot access we are buying. I'm on a MacBook Pro and can share the signal off of my Brother's macbook via bluetooth. But my cousin can't get on the internet from his G1 through the host mac. They are paired. Any thoughts

Wireless Tether Fails (Appears as network but cannot connect)

Rooted my stock Evo finally and wanted to get wireless tether up and running...But I am feeling to do so.
It sees the network (Android Tether) but it refuses to connect.
According to ThinkVantage Access Connections it applies the wireless settings, renews the IP address, but does configured the IP address.
Have not had success with PDA Net either whenever I try to install the PC client it says that it fails to install the Plug n Play driver and fails to install the PDAnet broadband driver.
Rather aggravating.
Any thoughts/suggestions would be much appreciated.
try the pre8 version

Switching to channel 1 fixed my issues.

Same here. Switching to channel one seems to fix most connectivity issues with android-wifi-tether.

Check this out. Connected my PS3 indirectly to Adhoc using my Vibrant.

If you don't know how to make an ad hoc network, just search "how to" on whatever OS you're running. But anyways I had the idea to get my phone, ps3,and laptop on my high speed internet connection without a router. First thought was a reverse USB tether and then broadcast it to ps3....but it seems impossible on my cm7 gingerbread vibrant.(btw, no one bothered answering my post for help). So technically you don't even need to create an ad hoc network. I allowed sharing from my wired local network connection to my wireless connection on the laptop. Then enabled the wifi hotspot ability on my phone, did custom connection and picked up "AndroidAP" on my ps3 wireless connection, made sure that it aquired an IP but didn't care about internet just yet. I then connected the laptop to the "AndroidAP" access point under available wireless networks. Waited a minute and I see my computer as a media server on my ps3. Open the browser on the ps3 and voila! Online connection tested at 6.4 mbps download and a 2.8 Mbps upload. The phone acted as a wireless bridge but isn't drawing any data from it because the hotspot ability is for sharing....so now I need to figure out how to tap into the love on the phone.
If you haven't figured it out, you can get everything online in your house without buying a wireless router. This is a homemade access point that's super easy!

Xbox Live Moderate NAT on Hotspot/Tether

Is there a clear tutorial on setting the NAT to open on Xbox Live? I'm tethering off my Verizon 4G LTE phone.
Of course theres a way.

I was never able to find one that was complete... through trial and error I found a solid usb method. Now my only problem is this POS LG Revolution with no man support or ROMs. Seems I have to tether through EasyTether to maintain a solid connection (anyone know why?) otherwise it poops out after a couple minutes randomly which sucks because I've had my best tether 4g speeds through 3 rarely talked about apps, Tether Pop-Up and Auto-Usb Tether and SVTP no idea why but they kick the crap out of PDANet, Clockwork Tether, EasyTether. With the auto enablers / widgets I get 18-40DN / 6-12UP MB/S on speedtest.net the only way my tethering speed came close to matching my true phone 4g speeds the most Ive ever seen from the others was 7mbs dn 3up thats with easytether. So first find a tethering method that works the fastest with a solid connection (you need it otherwise constant disconnects and probation waiting for matches).
Now share your connection via pc/mac network card/ethernet cable to a Router (it must support an NZB Server)'s internet port. Set your xbox up to be a set IP address mines 192.168.1.4. leave everything else blank except dns = google for phone, pc and xbox network settings. Then login to your router generally under WLAN Setup you'll find "Default DMZ Server" enter your Xbox IP address in fields. Check to make sure MTU Size is 1500 and NAT Filitering "Open". I disable SIP ALG too if optional. Check to make sure your connection from PC is being shared and used as gateway ect in your main status and thats it. Connect to router via wireless or ethernet (faster). DMZ basically creates a port server for the xbox-router any port the xbox wants open nzb opens it (was what I understood). If your still not getting your xbox to say Open NAT make sure ips match router DMZ and xbox (dhcp crap messes it up sometimes), start opening ports on the router, pc and android for xbox you can get list of ports for COD via google and portforward on android and complete firewall bypass on pc can help too. You can achieve OPEN by simply getting all ports necessary but DMZ method much easier. As far as I know you need a DMZ capable Router you cannot WiFi tether to xbox and get open or any other way without a router to my knowledge.

Thanks, I appreciate it! One question, is it possible without a router? Just bridging PC to Xbox?
When you're using this kind of a method, your phone provider is the NAT. You can't really get around it because they control it. Not you.
However many phone providers will let you pay extra for a public IP address and then you'll have an open NAT.
I've tried just about every possible method to grt open NAT through my phone with the wifi tether app.. PC has wireless adapter connected to my phone.. Etherney cable from LAN port to the routers modem plug.. Ethernet cable from router to ps3.. I can't login to my router to change any of the settings for some reason.. I have a Netgear and my web browser keeps saying it can't find the page..
