Hello... I have broadband connection.
I surf internet by using wifi tether. ( Creating WiFi hotspot on laptop)
My question is, In case of PC(where there is no WiFi device) is there any way that I use broadband without wireless tethering. I mean connecting USB cable to the computer and from that accessing broadband. (Means internet)?
If anyone knows this then please suggest what to do?
huummm....I end up with an application called ReverseTether. Before I google the issue and find this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929918
Now both working fine, , but still I cant download market apps.
The reverse tether application works good but have only one problem is that at the time of "appear as a 3G connection" it wont work.
At that time " Network NDIS LAN driver" shows that cable is unplugged. Application shows that it connected but nothing work.
So what I do is I untick option " appear as a 3G connection" and run it again,,, at this time is work but market application which requires data plan connectivity or wifi that doesnt work.
Same as with the tool. You cant download market apps.
If anyone have the solutions then please let me know.
Thank you.
I will test and try to find your answer, maybe tomorrow

Hi,
I'm looking for a software solution that allows to connect an Android phone via USB in order to use the connection (WIFI or cable) active on the PC. It can be seen as a reverse-tether.
This was possible by default on every windows mobile phone via active sync.
Is it possible with Android?
I'd like to ask the same question

Find pdanet on the android market. Free version only lasts a month but its worth the 20 or so to buy it. Plug the phone into the pc, run the app, run the software on the pc, and voila you'll have a wired tether.

Ok but that's not what I'm looking for. Pdanet allows you to use the 3G internet connection of the phone with your laptop, what I want is the opposit: use the active connection of the PC with the phone.
Ahhh ok, my bad. Should've read a lil better and saw reverse tether lol. Maybe PM a dev asking if that's possible, or post in a general section if anyone would be willing to make an app like that (if possible) for you.

I use the application "Virtual Router"
with which I can set up my pc/laptop as an access point. I set up a SS-ID and a passkey. Then I use my phone to connect using WiFi. That way my phone connects to my pc using WiFi which makes it possible to use the LAN internet my laptop has
phone -----WiFi-----> Laptop --------LAN-------> Internet
Hope it helps
PC Internet > Router > Wifi > Android : Connectify
Laptop Internet > WIfi > Android : Connectify
PC Internet > USB Cable > Android : no idea! (my ex HD2 can do this flawlessly, with Winmo ofcourse)
Hi I have a PC connect via ethernet to the internet, I would like to connect my phone to the computer so I can broadcast my computers internet connection to my iPad for example. Don't want to use mobile data tethering thanks. I can use either a HTC Hero or Samsung GS2. Is this possible at all? any apps that will let me do this?
I'm not sure if it forces mobile data when hotspot is enabled.
If not, I'd connect the phone to the PC using internet pass through with mobile data disabled and hot spot enabled. I'm unsure if it will use your PC's internet when broadcasting though

Its not the greatest help though, but that open garden app still does something I guess

You want your computer to be a Wi-Fi router? Try Connectify. You will need a Wi-Fi card to make it work.

I'm also looking for the same kind of thing...but couldnt find any..
The series is like Computer(with internet) >> Phone(Getting internet via "Internet Pass Through") >> Broadcasting that internet using WifiHotspot
Is that possible?

If your computer has a Wi-Fi card/builtin, you can use something like Connectify to turn your computer into a hotspot.
When you say wifi card thats the same thing as a wireless card?If yes then I can use my laptop as a hotspot?how do I do that exactly. Thanks

Like a PCI card or it's built into all laptops built in the last ten years.
If I had a wireless card..I wouldnt even bother about getting a phone with "Internet Pass Through"
What I am asking is "A Desktop without a wifi card but has a wired internet connection needs to provide internet to a laptop"
What are we having with us? - A Phone with "Internet Pass Through" enabled
A Desktop (With no WIFI card)
A Laptop (With a WIFI card ofcourse)

Laptop would work. It has built-in Wi-Fi and probably a 10/100[/1000] ethernet port.

You still don't understand mate...
What I meant to say is
PC is WIRED with broadband connection...It is passed to the phone using Internet Pass Through...
Now THE GOLDEN QUESTION IS HOW TO BROADCAST THIS INTERNET(that is present in the phone through IPT) USING ANY HOTSPOT APP!
?

follow this reverse tethering guide (i've tested this one and it's working):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345
and when it's done... try and activate the wifi hotpot feature of your android phone.

Oh gotcha. Sounds like you got an answer above but if that doesn't work, hook your phone up to the laptop and use an app like Connectify on that laptop. Sorry I didn't understand.

Hello guyz. I need some help.
I want to use internet on my lappy via sgy. I have tried usb tethering & creating portable wifi hotspot but using them, the internet disconnects frequently (specially with usb, the connection gets lost or doesn't respond).
So kindly tell me a way to fix these issues or some other way to use internet (like by using bluetooth)...
NOTE: I am on HSDPA network.
try foxfi (playstore)
and next time remember questions go in the Q & A Section NOT general section!!!!
Any other way...
Oh sorry for posting in the wrong secrion. I have tried that foxfi app too but the disconnection problem persisted...
Is there any other app or a way to use internet via bluetooth??

Easytether, the easiest app for tethering i've ever seen it works well, i used it in college to bypass the proxy, this way i was able to play Quake Live in class during exams ^^"
You must have Data of course
Hello, so i have a spare phone at my home but i don't have a wifi router.
I wanted to ask is it possible to turn my phone into a wifi router using my pc internet. I know that it is possible to use it as a wifi hotspot by sharing your data plan or reverse tether pc internet but that's not what i'm looking for.
As i mentioned earlier i wish it to work as a wifi router so it should be able to work as a wifi hotspot but not sharing my data plan but the reverse tethered internet from my pc.
I have an idea what you need:
1. Your Computer has to have drivers to host an USB tethering connection. So far, it only has the drivers to receive one.
2. Your mobile has to have a driver to receive an USB tethering connection. So far, it only has the drivers to host one.
Edit: This alredy exists and is called Reverse Tethering, you find it in this forum. First search, then talk...
Routing to the wifi tethering should work, if not, have a look in the Routing tables.

Lol you don't have to be such a jerk.
I had tried it some time ago. Otherwise i wouldn't have asked this question.
And to be sure 100% i just tried it again. Tethering part works but sharing it via wifi hotspot doesn't.(The guy who made it confirmed it doesn't work in that way, that's why i'm looking for a solution)
I tried using this method then and now too. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1371345
