Hello All,
I am able to tether my device to my laptop and have no problems when not connected to another network via my internal network interface.
I was wondering what the proper TCPIP configuration would be to support using my tethered device to access the internet from my laptop at work (to avoid the corporate proxy), but still allow me to using my work network resources.
Currently, when I tether, I have to disable my laptop NIC. I think I am having a problem with my default gateway settings.
Thanks in advance.
I have my Tattoo rooted with 1.6 (can't recall the ROM name) with build number 1.67.405.6. Almost everything works fine except the connection with my home WiFi network. It's a PPPoE connection through ADSL modem. Next in line is the Netgear WG602 v3 WiFi router. At the beginning I couldn't connect at all so I changed the router's ROM to DD-WRT. Now I can connect with the router but no connection to the internet whatsoever. I can ping my router through my Tattoo, I can even open the 192.168.1.1 and mess around with its software but no connection to the internet. It is only limited to my Tattoo as I can connect through my laptop, through my other mobile (HTC S710) and also I can connect my Tattoo with any other WiFi (Secured or Open) with no problems at all.
I tried with no Security, with WEP, with WPA-PSK to no avail. Any other clues?
try running htc mail while you are using your wifi throuf your tattoo it worked for me
What is supposed to happen if I do that? I'm trying it as soon as I get home btw.
Nothing happened
Hi all...sorry for my interference but this problem is similar to mine.
I'm going mad from many weeks trying connect my Huawei Ideos (U8150) to my home wlan through a netgear VG602v3 AP. No way to do this.
Wifi works from my laptop and from my girlfriend's laptop, but from ideos it doesn't.
I turned off all wireless device in my house, I tried with/without WPA, I tried open network from channel #1 to channel #13, tried changing ssid and I also tried praying .
There is a weak wifi near here: it is on channel #1 and its power is between -89 and -82db. My wifi power (data from kismet) is between -50 and -18 db and is configured on channel #11.
In any cases, even if I put my Ideos near to AP antenna the story is ever the same:
- Ideos indentify the wifi network
- Ideos acquire the IP
- I open the browser or the android market and...
- Ideos lose connection...and so on.
I downloaded from work wifi (crypted with WPA) a wifi scanner from app store: it shows me the neighbour's weak wifi and my wifi network which appear and disappear recurrently.
Please, someone helps me (without suggest to buy another AP!!), any suggestions are welcome!!
Have you tried logging into the router and checking the privileges for devices. Some of them have a security element that restricts the use of the internet on newly connected devices until the setting is changed. I had a similar problem with a new laptop.
hope it helps.
I checked every setting to no avail. I still think somehow that my problem is with my router or adsl modem which doesn't connect automatically with PPPoE and Android doesn't have any command or software to initiate a PPPoE connection.
Other than that... Can't find any solution. Until then, I use connectify on my Win7 laptop. The thing is that I have to keep my laptop switched on as long as I'm in the house.

thank you for suggestion. I looked in depth but I did not found the option of which you were talking about. The unique solution still remains change the AP!!!
WiFi and Netgear Router
I think I finally found the answer. It appears Netgear routers support something called WiFi Multimedia. Its a QOS methodology. I disabled WiFi MM or WIMM as its sometimes called, as well as Internet QOS and all my problems connecting to web pages, the market, etc. through WiFi disappeared.
Strange that older versions of the ROM supported WIMM (or ignored it) and newer ones don't. But that solved the problem for me with no real degradation of performance on any of my other computers.
Good luck.
Hi,
trying to connect from notebook to miui phone via wireless network.
Phone is not responding on a ping when connected to the wireless network.
No ftp server apps work.
On other devices with different roms this works without problems.
Do MIUI roms have an integrated firewall ???

hello, i tried to connect via vpn to my fritzbox 7170 as described here www.deluxe-stylez.de/2010/12/29/howto-android-vpnc-to-fritzbox but it's not working. i also tried the vpnc widget from markt.
both methods show a vpn connection, also my fritzbox shows this connection. but it is not used by the browser and i can't reach the fritz admin site.
it is not used because:
the internet is not slowing down (this should happen because of my slow upload speed at home)
the ip address from my fritzbox is not reachable!
what could this be? has anyone a functioning vpn connection with a fritzbox?
Hi,
I*m running PACrom/stock kernel and I'm trying to make the following work to no avail yet:
I want to share the Internet connection I get on my N7 WiFi wirelessly from the router to my desktop PC via WiFi, Bluetooth or USB.
Although there are lots and lots of different apps regarding tethering/connection sharing on the Playstore, none has worked for me yet.
I tried FoxFi, Wireless Tether and so on, but nothing works. Either the app complains about the N7 being in an "unknown mode" and therefore refuses to work, or I can establish a connection between the device and my PC, but it stops at some poin, not getting an IP adress or similar issues.
Searching for solutions online mostly brings up this issue in regards to an Internet connection established via mobile 3/4G data, which doesn't help me at all.
Basically, my question is whether there's a solution which lets my share my Wi-Fi Internet connection on my Nexus 7 to my desktop PC, I don't care if its via WiFi ( would be my preference, but I don't even know if its possible to create a HotSpot on the N7 my desktop can access while still being connected to the other, Internet providing WiFi connection) Bluetooth or USB, whatever works is fine by me.
Would love to get some helpful advice/successful storys from you guys
Have you tried Proxoid? It's http only, basically a port 80 proxy that passes the http traffic over the phone's data connection via USB cable... I've used it on my Galaxy S3, but haven't tried to use it through the Nexus 7's wifi...
