Have you had any luck yet?
I am looking to connect several Nexus 4 (mako) devices together using wifi ad-hoc mode, but the Nexus 4 uses a different Wi-Fi chipset than most devices. There has been good work done on the Broadcom chipset (Google search for: thinktube IBSS), but I am having difficulty finding anything for the Murata Wi-Fi chip which is found in Nexus 4 according to ifixit.
There are ROMs that have ad-hoc built in

Awesome! :laugh: Do you know of any that will allow my Nexus 4 devices to successfully connect to an ad-hoc network?

Is it possible on the S? I am thinking on moving From the Nexus One to the S but infrastructure is important to me.
call me slow or stupid but ...what?
I am talking about this: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/945-wireless-tether-infrastructure-mode-apwpa-encryption/
If you tether ad-hoc you can't connect the PSP or other devices to your phone, but with infrastructure you can.
According to the Nexus S teardown on iFixit, it appears our phones have the same broadcom wifi(BCM4329) chip in it.
Sooooo... maybe?

Good to know, so maybe it does.
Can anyone actually confirm it does?
The mobile hotspot app built into the NS is working in infrastructure mode, not ad-hoc
Yes.

Great, thanks for the responses
Will it connect to a portable Wi-Fi hotspot from your phone? Has anyone tested that feature yet?
If it has wifi it will. It doesnt matter where the wifi is coming from. Its still wifi.

Actually, I think it matters what WIFI type you are doing. I have read that the KF will not support ad-hoc networks and some hotspots are set up this way. It will support Infrastructure Wifi.
From the specs list on Amazon, :
Wi-Fi Connectivity: Supports public and private Wi-Fi networks or hotspots that use 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, or enterprise networks with support for WEP, WPA and WPA2 security using password authentication; does not support connecting to ad-hoc (or peer-to-peer) Wi-Fi networks.

Which is to say, no, it will not work with the many phone hot spots which produce ad-hoc networks.
I can confirm that you can use a phone as a hot spot and connect to the Fire. HTC EVO MUI rom... Have not tested others.
Works fine with portable hotspot on CM7.1 on Inspire
Works flawless with galaxy s2 sprint.

Actually somewhat had the same issue at home. At first it would connect to home wifi, then lose connectivity while all other wifi devices were fine..and worked flawlessly while tether. After reboot seemed to solve the issue, but was wondering if others were experience strange behavior like this?
So... does the KF work with Phones using Ad Hoc network-based apps from the market or only AP mode?
Works fine on my Optimus V

That's why you use the "Personal Hotspot" of iOS which creates a Wi-Fi network. That's how I use my KF on the go.

What are you trying to accomplish by tethering or making it a WiFi hotspot? There would be no data connection to share.

I don't believe you can have a WiFi connection and access point on at the same time with android. Windows 7 has the miniport driver that allows this, but I think it requires certain hardware features built in that android devices might not have. I've heard this question asked a lot but no solutions.

There are several apps in the Play Store that do USB tethering. I don't know if they can get data from WiFi though. Search for USB tethering and try some.

EasyTether works with the nexus 7 but I'm using linux on my laptop so can't vouch for windows. However, it should work if you follow their directions.
I believe the default hot spot for the Nexus 4 for is an adhoc network. In order for my car radio to connect to my phone I need to be able to have an Infrastructure network. I know other phones can do this, hopefully the nexus 4 can too. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :good:
This should work
