Hey,
ive just rooted my device. Now i need an App for some wlan hotspot.
So i dont want a normal hotspot with mobile wifi, i wanna connect my device with my router wifi and forward to another device.

Hi,
as there are no threads about this (i havent found anything), i will post a new one.
my main question is: is it possible to get a wifi connection on your phone and share this connection at the same time through wifi (so you get a wifi hotspot or whatever)? (android, windows mobile, windows phone -> whatever, got a HD2)
it works on multiple computers with windows 7, but i never got how to do that with ma HD2.
hopefully,
sallal
EDIT: forgot the [Q] thing, sry
as no one replies

they're are many apps that can do this, just search WIFI tether in the market (android), IDK about WM7 though.
For android you can also run CM7 which has tethering built into it. I use it and it works like a charm, it's fast too.
Sorry for my question ,but with this program i can use my tablet as a router?
I have 3G so i can use this connection for internet and WIFI for make my tablet a router?
the app allows you to "tether"/use your device as a router. SO yes.
The are CMInternetSharing package that is used to share internet connection from a Mobile (that we get using GPRS/3G) as a WiFi Router to others...
If you have a WiFi Connection that your mobile is consuming then what is the need for re-sharing same connection from mobile?
Let me know if I am not sure about the question
Thanks.
Am no expert but i think this is true...
A wireless device can either be used as a client or as a router, you would need 2 wireless interfaces to do what you are looking for. When the tether apps start they configure your wireless interface as a router... I dont believe it can be running as both types at once.
but you most defenetly could use your 3g or whatever cell signal you have and offer it thru a wifi interface, you must have root access.
Cheers
maybe there is a way
you could switch the wifi with a 3g lookalike so 3g uses your wifi and then download a wifi tether i am looking for this quit a time and i diddn't found anything but this is al theory
I do it with a stock app of my device, it's calls "3g mobile's wifi point"

hmm that would be a thing i should look at...
i always used on windows 7 "connectify me", a program made for taking wireless internet connection or LAN and sharing it at the same time as a router.
the virtual wifi miniport is used for this i suppose.
maybe there is something like the virtual miniport to manage in windows mobile or android?

I use one from the XDA forums, search for wifi router
It works great on my HD2 with WINMO
sir,i have already mentioned.....try "mhotspot" easily converts ur lap/pc into wifi hotspot(n/w will be detected by android mobiles,worked for my ACE) its better than connectify because..we dont need to install it..and soo we can over come protocol related problems and system instability issues
Can i somehow use my phone as a wlan repeater???

Not sure but if you can use it as a hotspot, perhaps there's a way to do so.

It can't receive a network and host one at the same time, so the answer is no.
I wasn't sure. Never tried it out myself. Thanks for clearing it up for me.
what a pity

Yarr!!
I was expecting how-to for using Xperia neo as semi-automatic repeater(like this http://budk.com/Outdoor-Sports/Nightstalker-Semi-Automatic-Repeater ), or digital repeater( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeater ). Pretty dissapointed to find no such things here.
Though there is some hope left yet, since you can use it as such kind of a repeater as shown here( http://apps.search.yahoo.com/search...rd&appgid=9569515&pf=android&pfs=android&pd=4 )
If it will not work as a cannon, at least it can work like a parrot.
EofJoke, matey.
SE claims that you can. Usually you need a rooted phone to enable tethering, SE but has built tethering into the phone.
I just tested. It works
Go to
Wireless & network settings
Tethering & portable hotspot
Port. Wi-Fi hotspot settings --- Configure Wi-Fi hotspot
Nothing complicated from there. create SSID and password
I am writing this post running on wireless internet connection provided by my Xperia neo.
Edit: connection seemed slower than over normal wi-fi router which has as fast internet connection as my data connection.
i know that wifi thering works thats no problem but i mean amplifing my wifi singnal from my rooter at home
Do you know any other phone that can do that?
This is instructions for creating a wireless repeater
http://urbanwireless.info/wireless-repeater
As you can see, you either hack a router into it or buy such a device from shop.
Which means, for a phone... it is nigh impossible to become such a repeater, unless you like it as a repeater and not a phone.
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
Dear all
MOBILE HOTSPOT IS NOT ENABLING...
Share it is not working in my phone, when i try to search other device (non verizon) it is waiting just and not discovering other device. Moreover if i turn on its wifi it discovers other phone via wifi
I mean if other phone is already connected with some wifi access point and mine too
Then it discovers other device
Without wifi using hotspot share it is not working
Any solution please. .
