Ok so living in the Uk I use unblock US to watch US netflix.
I can change the dns settings on the wifi and access it ok but it doesn't work on the ethernet.
How can I change the Dns on the ethernet? Wi fi is rubbish on the Ouya.
Cheers

I don't think there is a ethernet manual settings within android since it's designed for mobile devices that don't usually have ethernet ports.
It would probably be either to bridge the Ouya to a PC and share the PC internet connection to get Neflix and what not working if you want to use ethernet
DNS
I havent tried it, but I came across it yesterday
in the advanced setting
-Ethernet
-Ethernet configuration
-dns

I'm trying to connect my ps3 to the internet using my phones internet. I have a rooted Hero using wireless tether to my pc. I enabled internet sharing on that connection and hooked up an ethernet cat-6 from my ps3 to pc. My ps3 keeps timing out trying to optain an IP address. Does anyone know if it's possible to get the ps3 to share a mobile internet connection?
Edit: Manually entered IP address and it now successfully obtains, but I get a DNS Error. I've tried a few open source numbers, none of which seem to work.
Why don't you just Wi-Fi tether? Program like wifi barnicale tether
It works from my N1 to ps3 slim
I tried that first. My ps3 wouldn't pick up the network when it would scan. I read that ps3's can't pick up ad-hoc networks. Maybe the new slims have that added feature though?
Make sure you are using one of the latest versions of wifi tether (.09 or .10). I think they now are a true router rather than a ad hoc connection

So I also have an HTC hero and what I'm wondering is if I can completely bypass using a pc/laptop and go directly from phone to console using a tether app ?
Ok so I spent a few hours messing around last night, and I found a way to tether to my wii. It's probably no good for playing online. I needed to update my homebrew and this worked great for that.
You will need two routers, one of them capable of running dd-wrt. Set the dd-wrt router for client-bridge mode in the wireless tab. In basic setup (in the setup tab), the gateway should be set to the IP of your phone, and the channel and SSID should be set to match your phone. Give the router an IP address that is high in the range set on your tether app. Under setup>advanced routing make sure it is set to router and not gateway. Now with your phone broadcasting, go to the status tab, and the wireless sub-tab. Scroll to the bottom, and click site survey. Your tethered network should show up. Click join. Unfortunately you have to do this every time, as dd-wrt doesn't automatically connect to ad-hoc networks.
Now set up your second router the way you like. Run a patch cable from LAN on the first router to WAN on the second. After it connects, you should have a fully functioning infrastructure network through your tethered connection.
If you don't know about dd-wrt, all the info is online. Read the wiki carefully as you can potentially brick your router if you flash a version that your router can't handle. I'm not responsible if you do this!
I don't know if tomato is capable of client-bridge mode, but you could probably use it instead of dd-wrt if you prefer.
Good luck!

Very informative!!
I was thinking about this the other day for my PS3. My idea was that couldn't you use your computer as an internet gateway and run a patch cable (Not sure if it'd be a crossover or not) from your computer to a router (into the "Internet" port) and run another patch cable from the router into the PS3?
I didn't bother to try it, but it was an interesting thought considering the only internet connection I have where I live currently is through my phone. The connection does just fine to run Vent+WoW, though.
edit: Maybe it'd work with a switch instead of a router? 'nother thought.
You should be able yo do that, but you wouldn't need a switch or a router, just plug straight in if you use a crossover cable. I think you would need a router if you use patch cables.
The wii doesn't have an Ethernet port so I haven't tried it that way.. I bet its a pain to set up internet sharing in windows though

Or switch

It's real easy to share your internet from wifi tether through your computer's ethernet port. and for the wii, you only need a usb to ethernet adapter to use ethernet. (in windows) just enable share connection for your ethernet connection. Plug in. done.

After searching and trying out several ways to connect my GT to my school's proxy authenticated wifi network I gave up. Then I thought about my ipod touch, registered my wifi mac address with the IT guys and voila it was so easy to configure proxy just my entering user name and password I I can surf.
Now why on earth did android neglect the proxy wifi I have no idea. Furthermore, the adhoc wifi does not also work OTB and will only work if rooted. Why?
I am beginning to regret purchasing android device.....
Hi, what is the specific problem-is it connecting ok to wireless but not authenticating to your web proxy server? apps like asproxy ( http://alsubang.github.com/ASProxy/index.html) should work, but haven't tried it myself....

I have tried asproxy and it did not work. And yes it connects to the usual hotspots like starbucks. I am also rooted so I am able to connect to adhoc from my nokia phone(joiku hotspot).
I also know some friends who have the 10.1 and the asus transformer and they also cannot connect to the schools proxy. A visit to the IT department confirmed that Android is not supported.
A lot of people in our community are already put off getting an android device because of this.
So i am trying to setup my home network and want to make sure i do it in the most efficient way and so everything sees everything on the network. Here are my basic needs:
-wireless
-wired connections- need about 6 to 8 connections (most wont be used but eventually might be down the road)
-one of the wired connections needs PoE (power over ethernet) to run the security webcam
-i also would like to setup a small home server (i started setting up amahi on an old machine but am open to other alternatives- preferably free or cheap)
so right now i have the cable modem connected to an 8port switch which has four poe capable ports on it. connected to this is the lines running to the different rooms. one of these lines goes to the wireless router up in my computer room. my desktop computer is connected to this router (it has 4 wired ports on it). Right now my desktop cant find the security webcam because it says its not on the network (probably because wireless router is between computer and switch that webcam is connected to). also i am having issues with the google tv box finding the computer to share media.
so what order should i connect everything together in (modem/switch/router/server) and are there any settings i need to do on them so they all work together as one network instead of 2 or 3 networks all strung together?
Thanks!
Modem to router to switch.

Thanks. Should I hook up server computer to router or switch?
Either. The ports on the router are a switch.

Ok so i have an lg g2, i am able to tether my phone to my pc and get internet. I am wanting to use my dlink wireless router to connect xbox 360. Well the only way i could get to work is by going into network sharing center, change adapter settings, then bridging my pc's lan adapter and the android's lan adapter making a mac bridge miniport. Well this actually works just fine to get my console connected. Only thing is since im not using the sharing options, i cannot set up ports to get an open nat type. Strict only. I also cannot get into my router to change pnp or demilitarize connection to get the open nat. So if anyone knows what the heck im talking about and can help, could u please either explain step by step what i would need to do to use sharing and accomplish that way or direct me to a thread that covers this. I have been trying to figure this out forever and im either not understanding or im not finding what i need. Everything ive read suggests i need to use the sharing option on one of the adapters but i just cannot figure this out. Any help would b so much appreciated. Thanks

Why can't you use your phone as wireless hotspot and connect everything to your phone? If your Xbox is not wireless you can either a) get a wireless adapter for it or b) buy a wireless bridge box ($20) and connect your Xbox via that.
