My intention is to use xda as the usual analog modem to connect to my dial-up ISP, so that when I am out I can use internet during nights when I get unlimited minutes. I don't mind speed at all and do not want to pay for GPRS stuff.
I currently use motorola c332 connecting to laptop with usb. slow but free. wonder if XDA can also do this. Since XDA is a pocket pc, I also want to know if I can use XDA itself to dial-up to my ISP.
in one word, analog modem instead of GPRS, can I?
u can with wmodem.exe. it might be installed on ur xda. if not u can get it from the "Kitchen" u can also use xda to dial up to ISP without wmodem.
alex
how do you dial up to an isp without wmodem???? :?
also
what is this kitchen?
thank you for any replies!!!

Hi guys, long story short, I really need to connect to my desktop via ad-hoc, since where I am at I don't have a router. I need to get my phone and pc connected so I can use the various remotes on my vibrant...
Would this mod work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=754961

I am using bionix 1.3.2 test.

I've tried to do this before with no successes. The research I did lead me to the conclusion that our phone is unable to recognize an ad-hoc network. I would be delighted if someone is able to get it working though

Android does not support it normally, but I use this patch on both my g1 and vibrant and have no issues with it. Works fine ( I use it along with barnacle to get both phones online using only 1 sim card and tethering).

If your using windows 7, then you can use the connectify me technique: http://www.connectify.me/
It shares your internet connection without having to rely on an adhoc network.
or if you don't have windows 7, (this might not be useful for your application), but you can share your computers internet connection using the USB tether on your phone (some call it reverse tethering): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793102
Of course I dont know how useful this would be as you'd be wired via USB, but I thought I'd mention it.
I am having broadband connection at home, but no wifi router. So I am unable to use broadband with my phone.
How can I connect my phone to my pc and share the internet from my computer.
Note that I don't want to use my ace as a modem.

this can be done in two ways!!
Either you get yourself ADSL modem +WIFI router and then use broadband on SGA or second method would be by
"Reverse USB tethering" you will need a Linux machine for that, because you cannot do it on Windows machine,(i don't say it is imposible but its not working right now)
check this blog for Reverse USB tethering

Hi! I have bought the original micro usb to usb adaptor. I wonder if there is an application to help me conect my usb internet modem to my phone so I can use my internet provider network instead of the sim data connection? Now when I connect my usb modem to the phone I see the led lightening but I think it is needed a application for make it recognised by the phone and with some protocols to use it like an external modem.
Any ideas?

Are Wi-Fi routers really that expensive in Romania?
Nice one. No my friend I have one at my place but I travel a lot and my internet provider package is only 250Mb (can't change it cause is a company phone). I have this modem from my internet provider and I'm using it with my laptop when I don't have a Wi-Fi network available and it will be nice and useful to make it work also with my smartphone.

You should be able to use the laptop as a wireless "hotspot" while the USB modem is plugged into it, and your phone can then access the wireless network that's been created.
This is certainly possible with Windoze 7 and I would be surprised if it wasn't possible with Vista or even XP. A quick Google search of "Windows <insert your version of Windows here> WiFi connection sharing" yields plenty of results.
i use this, and it works most of the time! Cant really find why it doesnt work somethimes when i try. But havent used it that much:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/reverse-tethering-keeping-your-android-device-online/
This is an app that sends the internet of the pc to your phone, you do need root though!
I just keep it on my sdcard, so i can use it on every pc

This is defo your best bet, as I would bet the USB modem would need more power than the phone can give, so you would need to use a powered hub or a splitter, you would also need drivers (kernel modules) for the data modem built into the kernel, if there even are linux drivers for it, and then all the userspace modem tools which would need porting to android, and in the end you would still more than likely need an external power supply for the modem.
tl;dr Not likely to happen at the current time due to technical hurdles.
Greetings members.. soo i have been using wifi direct to transfer large files from my S3 to frndz S2.. that got me thinking is there any way to use this to transfer files on PC.. ie transferring without an active net connection or a wifi network ??

Even kies wifi needs a home network..

you can start up a hotspot on the phone and use SWIFTP to host an ftp server off the phone
Use the phone's Wifi Tethering option or the freeware "Connecitfy" on the computer to create a Wifi network and then use an app like SAMBA Fileshare to transfer the files.
Afaik Wifi Direct is a software-only protocol which uses sort of apoint-to-point Adhoc network so there is no reason why computers should not be able to use it, at least no technical. You'd need the corresponding tools / drivers though and to my knowledge none such exist.
I have always found es file explorer to work extremely well. You do need to spend a little time to become familiar with interface but really is great for moving files etc. I use it to over files on/from/to my htpc if the wife is watching her junk. Just make sure you have a static ip on your pc to allow for auto login when you open app rather than scanning and login in every time
ist about that you are awesome because tou are imaginary or exist in another world
Hi
Both Intel (My WiFi Dashboard) and Qualcomm-Atheros (Direct Connection) have a client that is supposed to be "WiFi direct" certified and should allow for Direct Peer-Peer connection between the Phone and PC without the need for an access point or other routing device.
I have been unable to get either to work with my SGH-i927 Captivate Glide !
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/my-wifi-technology.html
The only place I could find the Atheros client was on OEM sites like this for Dell(Sony and HP also have it)
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails?driverId=Y6F0H
I have searched the forums and google for an answer to this but haven't been able to find anything.
What I'm trying to do is use my computers internet for my phone, and then broadcast it out. I've downloaded and used successfully the xda Android Reverse Tethering .exe and it's worked wonderfully. But the thing is I want to be able to use it in conjuction with a wifi tether app from my Samsung Galaxy S. My phone is rooted.
The purpose of this is to get internet connection on my PSP Vita. All of the internet in my house is wired, I don't own a wifi router nor do I want one. I live in a building where finding wifi passwords is easy for everyone as we all have the same general field of work, but no one near me has wifi.
What I've tried so far is using the xda Reverser Tether program with Barnacle Wifi Tether, Open Garden WiFi, and WiFi Tether. All apps I've downloaded from the marketplace. They work well at broadcasting my cell signal for use as Wifi, but none of them have been able to use the internet being sent from my phone.
In short what I'm looking for, or even if it exists, is a way to transfer my hard wired internet through my computer to my phone and subsequently the cellphones ability to act as a Wifi router.
Check my signature
Edit: *bump* I have removed it
check my threads
That looks close, but how could I use that, and then have my phone broadcast my internets computer through it's Wifi?
Hi ,
Use virtual router software in your pc and turn on pc and phones wifi.and connect to pcs wifi connection.if you have confusion try virtual router in google. i got succeeded in this but i dont have any link to give you.
If i helped press thanks.
This sounds like something that might do it. I have it downloaded but it's not doing anything. What were the steps you got to make it work for you?
Well, I was able to get it to work using redankaiahu's advice. The only thing is I had to go out and buy a usb-wifi adapter instead of using my phone like I would've liked. Oh well.
I know this really doesn't belong here, but did u know that if u get a router, u can actually change the frequency channel on it? Which means , no ones pc will pickup on the channel unless they adjust from their own pc's and know what channel u changed to.
