Is there a way to do wireless tether that is an "wifi access point" and not a ad-hoc network. my work pc has peer to perr networks blocked.
thanks
Not that I know of.

Need to share my 3g bandwidth from my samsung tab 10.1 , I found no inbuilt options (or did I miss something, pls say I did) .. Tried wireless tether, runs and shows as Ad Hoc hotspot, but no device can connect to it.
And Oh I'm rooted
You don't have a built in mobile hotspot app?
under wireless settings, there should be an option that says tethering and wireless hotspot.
So I have the Wireless Tether root app. I have also removed the T-Mo Direct Share Manager app. Wireless Tether starts correctly with the only error being ad-hoc mode (this have always happened on all of my Android devices) but the SSID is never listed on any device when I go to connect. Any ideas?
ssid broadcast is on?
which wireless tether app?
WiFi Tether... I've tried the beta and the latest stable version. There is no option that I see for SSID Broadcast.
try foxfi.
I know that I have looked into this before and that Android Gingerbread and ICS did not have the ability to connect to a wireless Ad-Hoc network with shared internet connection. I read some places that this was supposed to be included in JB, but I am still unable to see any wireless Ad-Hoc networks when I create one using Win7.
I just work in a remote location with little to no 3g and definitely no 4g....it would be awesome if I could share the wired connection on my laptop. I know that there are 3rd party "virtual router" applications that can accomplish this, but it is a corporate laptop and I cannot install anything on it. Thanks!
I want to host an INFRASTRUCTURE (not AD-HOC), otherwise known as a SoftAP (Access point) on wifi. This is possible with many applications, but they all want to use a mobile data connection. Is there any application that allows you to host a SoftAP WITHOUT a 2G/3G/4G connection? This is just for playing over WIFI between a samsung galaxy s3 and an older android 2.1 tablet. These cannot see AdHoc networks.
Anyways, I'm interested in any application that allows hosting of an infrastructure WiFi network without tethering to just host a wireless lan point.
Bump
I am also very interested in a solution/app like this.
A photo app (MoPhotos) will work with my EyeFi WiFi card to transfer photos from the card in my camera to my computer/Android device via Wifi.
Currently, the card has to go through the home router as that what it looks for to give it a IP Address and network to connect to the computer/Android.
If there is a way for the Android device to be a Wifi HotSpot without the mobile tethering, I can configure the card to talk directly to the Android, which would be *very* helpful when out and about.
Does anyone know if it's possible to USB tether the Incredible 4G to a PC and turn the phone's wifi into an Ad Hoc wireless adapter? I found this thread that lets you turn the wifi into an Infrastructure adapter (to give the PC a wireless connection to an existing wireless infrastructure), but that's not what I'm looking for. Every other Ad Hoc post I've found so far is about connecting an Android device to an Ad Hoc connection, which isn't what I'm looking for. Essentially need a direct wireless connection where the phone is the gateway and is tethered to the PC.. Has anyone seen this or heard of anyone doing this, or maybe I'm missing something simple? Thanks for any assistance.
Note: I am S-OFF'd and rooted.
Nevermind
