[Q] Wireless tether on X10 2.1??? - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hail, oh mighty hackers of Android Phones.
I've rooted my X10 2.1, and installed the app Wireless Tether. However, when I start it, it says: No Netfilter! Your kernel does not have all encessary features for running this application. (Bummer!)
Is it possible at all to get wireless tethering to work on this device? If yes, please how is it possible?
Thanks in advance, Artur

Tethering on X10

Ive looked around, can you natively tether an X10 and get internet access or do you need to install software like easytether?
Ps I cant get easythether to work either. (PS just got that working ;-) )
Thanks

No native app I know of that comes with the X10 for tethering. Try PdaNet, works like a charm for me. =)

I second this. Great app. Well worth the money.
I'm trying to tether with my ipad using X10 but PDAnet shows in order to use buletooth tether I need to be on andriod 2.0 or above! any way I can do it on 1.6?
Thank you.
Tethering
Thans for the PDAnet mention, isntalled that, its working nicely.
Was jsut used to HTC phones connecting automatically with internet sharing.
Not sure about the bluetooth tethering, as it states, needs 2.0
Wont be long till Paul has rooted it, the we can get vanilla 2.1 on and will work ok.
Bloke
yeah the windows mobile htc's have automatic tethering ??
anyways
pdanet, you have to install their software on the pc that you want to tether too right ?
Barnacle works like a charm!
just root the phone, and use barnacle, PDA something is harder
Easy tether works great and easy to use

Root the phone, use barnacle and tether over wifi. I just could not get BT to work with PDANet
If we start barnacle, can we connect other phone? Or just PC only?
Gunawan-GN Multimedia-X10i
O. You mean: run barnacle use x10. And then just search for wifi spot and connect. Just like that? And what ever type as long have wifi connection can connect to our x10 via barnacle? If yes... I can not connect my x8 to my x10 with wifi. Anything wrong?
Gunawan-GN Multimedia-X10i
I tried install barnacles, but my HTC Magic, Blackberry 8250 and Archos 101 cannot detect the wifi that's tether from my X10i....
should i change any setting?
anyone can help?
Are you searching for an infrastructure wifi connection or an adhoc? tethering is used with adhoc, its a direct connection between two devices. Refine your search to that and maybe you'll have better luck
-X10(a)i 2.1, JIT ~ via XDA App
I use barnacle at lans to share a connection with a few ppl. we all join and play starcraft2 with no problems what so ever.
Barnacle FTW!
Thanks heaps for the barnacle suggestion,works amazing
i just used barnacle wifi.. n its v gud n works just best thanks all
Question
barnacle is great, but does it also work that way:
Me (X10) connected to a (foreign) wifi-network ---> friend (iphone etc, doesn't matter) connects via my x10, and is also using the foreign network??
will soon spend some days in London with my school calss and wifi will cost money, so we wanted to buy access for 1 phone (wifi) and the rest will connect via this phone =)

I think that you have some trouble with ip....
You can try to put in your htc this ip:
192.168.5.2 (ip)
255.255.255.0 (s.mask)
192.168.5.1 (getway)
Explain more pls.
Until today I didn't use wifi.
Because there is no wifi network in my area.
This requires ROOT access, the Mini has not been rooted AFAIK

It was rooted like a week ago or so but no one knew. But on friday both Bin4ry and Kaladan(?) released different ways of rooting the Mini. I Used the one on andoid.doshaska sinced it seemed a whole lot easier. google x10miniroot and you'll get what you need.
(still cant post links... srry)
Worked like magic for me and the wifi tethering is awesome.
Works like magic! First thing i did after rooting.

Its the same as you said in the first post. Choose an ssid, disable wpa-supplicant and go. (no password possible)
Sometimes it helps to leave WAN and LAN empty and remember to associate the network to find it and a second time when you connect (not really necessary but i believe it goes faster...)
Also the ad-hoc network might disconnect when phone goes into screensaver (at least for me) so just disable that one while tethering.
It is awesome when it works.
Hi All...
[EDIT]
from Bernacle FAQ:
All I see is "Starting..."
Barnacle is waiting for the ConnectivityService to announce that your mobile data network is connected. You might be in an area of poor coverage.
SOLVED
I am x10 mini pro owner and confirm that this WiFi tether works. Just follow the directions from first post (you MUST disable wpa-supplicant).
Also, tether doesn't work when phone goes into screensaver.

Here another mini pro owner. after rooting with universal androot v1.6.1. i installed barnacle. It works without security.
Now, I have a question.....and I feel stupid, because I have the feeling the sollution is so obvious...... but I'm a newbee, so I can make stupid mistakes .....I tried the mac adres security, but for some reason when I want to enter my pc's MAC-address (under BSSID) I only get a numeric keyboard......and since a mac address is hexadecimal..... so I tried converting hexa to decimal and enter that.....invalid entry..... how do I get mac address access control to work?????

Hi,
i have a little problem with wifi tethering on my X10 mini with Android 2.1. I got a inet connection for my Notebook over my x10 mini but after 1 min my Laptop loose the inetconnection and Barnicale wrote in the last few lines of log "renewed Client". Only when i restart the wifi tether i can reconnect to the Internet and again it work only for 1 minute. How can i keep the connection?

Really need infrastructure tethering mode for my vibrant..

Is this still not possible?

I got wifi tether to work by installing JAC's kernel and then getting the latest build of wifi tether.
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
I hope that helps some what.
I'm running wireless tether 2.0.5 pre7 on a completely stock Vibrant with root and it works perfectly. I have yet to find a working version of USB or wired tether. Just use the link that was provided by the poster above or Google "Wireless tether for root users". If you find a working USB tether, please post: -)

Wireless tether 2.0.5 will run just fine on your Vibrant with the stock kernel a stock Vibrant long as its rooted. Just fyi.
All of those mentioned methods use ad-hoc and not infrastructure mode as requested by the op. I don't know of any tethering apps that will setup an infrastructure hotspot now, but I believe that the built in tethering in froyo is infrastructure, but not sure. (I'm sure tmobile will have that stripped out anyway, but maybe if cm6 ever gets to this device it will be possible)
FYI, I'm using Wireless Tether For Root Users without any modifications except rooting, using version 2.0.5-pre7 and it's working great. Way faster than barnacle.

PdaNet and EasyTether both work over USB. Unfortunately, both apps filter https unless you get the paid version. PdaNet does have a fully functional 2 week trial, though.
Sorry, I have nothing for the OP...
I thought so. I guess we will have to wait for either the dev that's over android wifi tether to implement it, cm 6.0, or for froyo.
And oh yes, froyos hotspot is infrastructure, and that is the main thing I miss about my nexus.

Get linux on your pc lol. Usb works fine on linux with no extra software. (Ubuntu) just turn on debug mode on your phone and plug in.

What about samsung Kies? that works as a usb modem for me. The link is floating around the vibrant forum somewhere.
I have yet to get witless tethering working using any if the software update all the way up to pre 8. Barnacle, on the other hand works just fine for me, and has a humorous icon too!

Infrastructure Mode
Lookup [MOD] MobileAP in Vibrant Android Development to enable infrastructure.
I second checking out the MobileAp mod. I can't post the url due to being new. This is working perfect for me. Much much faster then every other tethering I tried. The applications I was trying to access before that I could not get to work are working flawless now with the exception of my VPN Client.

WIRELESS TETHER: a great tool (it works with 2.1 & root), BUT...

Hello!
Today I am starting to experiment Wireless Tether, a free Android application that you can easily found on Market and that makes it possible to do tethering with your Android device for other devices (ex. PC, other smartphones, iPad,...).
I installed it on my Xperia X10 with stock 2.1 Eclair and ROOT. Because of the software requires root access, I had no problem in installation. However, when I try to enable the tether, a problem appears: my kernel is not able to support a feature. The log says: Disabling NAT rules... FAILED!
Has anyone experienced the same problem with X10? Other devices are able to connect to my X10 wireless network BUT not able to surf the web through my device! :/
Thanks in advance!
our kernel does not support this. wait until bootloader is cracked or use barnacle tether
Ok, thank you very much!
+ 1 iv been using barnacle tether and it works perfectly well
hello folks,
does wifi thether drains your battery fast?
i'm using barnacle at the moment, and i notice my battery is draining fast.
just wondering is this normal or is it just me.
thanks

Works perfectly on x10
Yes wifi drains battery

I'm at EasyTether and it works pretty good. But i really want to make Barnacle work, it seems better i don't know..
Well if someone have a solution for it, please!!

I think you have your facts wrong there, I've used Barnacle succesfully on several Android devices.

It enables me to use PingTunnel as another tunneling method, next to DNS tunneling using iodine.
Anyone interested in a working ptunnel binary?
I had a very same problem with you. But now i'm onlining by my ipad tethering wifi In my X10 mini. I didnt know exactly what i've done after things i tried. But i just remember that at the moment my wifi (x10mini) was turning On, then i start Barnacle, i click button Associate immedialtely. Suddenly everything were running. I'm a new Adrdoid user so i dont understand at all. Good luck to you. Sorry for my English.

Now you can use the 'Android WiFi Tether For Root Users'.
But the Ad-hoc mode connection.
Not available in infrastructure mode.
thanks.. the airplane ON/OFF mode works great for me
I will try
