Hey guys, i was wondering if windows mobile 6 could connect your phone through wifi, and then share that wifi connection with your PC? 3g is pretty slow in my area, and we dont get the broadband service installed in our new apartment for another week or so. However, i can connect my phone to a few wireless networks that are close by. It would be nice if i could share that wifi connection with my PC, so i wouldnt have to deal with the crappy 3g here. Essentially I want to use my phone as a wireless adapter, then sharing that connection to my PC through BT or USB. The internet share in WM6 only alows for you to select your GPRS internet connection to share. An update/fix/or 3rd party app that could do what i want would rock.Thnks.
Using your phone as a wireless (wifi) adapter for your PC

If i connect to the internet via WiFi on my HTC touch HD is this free? does it come out of my allowence (orange)? sorry im not up on all this tech.
thanks

wifi is the same deal as if you connect your phone to your computer or network using usb or bluetooth
you can even remove the sim
your isp will never know when you're connected and transfering data over wifi
wifi is 100% the same thing as wired ethernet LAN networks just without the wires
I am interested in taking the internet connection from a desktop computer through USB on my phone and then using the phones wireless to share the connection to my laptop.
At my work the only way to connect to the network is if they allow your specific computer onto the network. I have been getting around this by using a mac that is on the network and setting up an ad-hoc network. This had worked well but they are replacing the mac with a brand new Dell tomorrow! Ah!
Any ideas on how I can share that network? None of the windows machines in our office have a wireless card and due to whatever security I can't just plug in.
Please note I am not trying to tether.
Thank you for any help!

Well, I couldn't think of a way with the phone. But I did come up with this. http://www.staples.com/Netgear-WNCE2001-Ethernet-to-Wireless-Adapter/product_865869?cmArea=SEARCH
Connect your computer to a switch, connect this to said switch. Then switch to lan port. Then set up ad-hoc using this? Little pricy but meh?
there are many ways to do this, you could use CM7 for one, it has wifi tethering built in.
there is PDAnet that tethers through usb and wifi (i think)
also go to the threads for your phone and look around to see how other users have accomplished it themselves.
Ok, so I am looking at different options for reducing my bills and one of them is to get rid of the Verizon FIOS and replace it with the T-mobile service I am already paying for by replacing one of the lines with a mobile hotspot.
I have the Magicjack phone service now and it works fine however it requires an ethernet connection to the internet. I currently have it plugged into a Hub which is connected to the FIOS router. If I lose the router how would I be able to pickup the internet signal from the hotspot and get it to the ethernet connection of the magicjack???
(without plugging it into a computer which would require leaving the computer on all the time)
I was wondering if anyone on VZW new unlimited plan who relies on Mobile Hotspot for their home (multiple devices) to try if this works. The idea is to turn your phone into a "Internet Service Provider" [figure speech] and share the internet with your other devices without being throttled after using those 15GB for your mobile hotspot allowance. I believe it could be accomplished with 4 items:
1- A USB type C to Ethernet adapter like this one
2- A Router (perhaps a dual band router but not really necessary)
3- PDANet App and activate USB Tethering from it
4- An Ethernet Cable to connect the adapter to the Router
From previous experience using PDANet, I was able to provide internet to my laptop from which I created a LAN and utilized a Cat5 cable to get my PS3 connected to play online since I didn't have a router. It appeared that I was using regular data instead of tethering.
