If u are using windows 7 laptop..u can search for a program called connectify and run it on your laptop to make it into a wifi source.

internet sharing

Hallo, I just bought a x10. This is my first android phone. I wonder if this phone supports internet sharing or if there is any application on android OS that would allow to share internet with thru the phone.
thank you
Easy tether and pdanet do this over usb. Search the android marketplace on your phone for these apps or search for "tethering" for wifi sharing.
thank you very much
ive tried these and cant get these apps to work for some reason can someone lend me a hand?
What does not work. We would be happy to help you, please provide a little more information as to what doesn't work. Got an error message?
If you prefer is there a wifi option.
You can do tether with your X10 using Barnacle.
Set rmnet0 as WAN password and athwlan0 as LAN one.
Bye

I installed Barnacle in my x10,and I can not connect x8 to my x10. Is there something missing.according to the explanation, it depends on the os like win7,xp,iphone,ipad,etc. Does it mean no chance for android? Or may be need another app to be installed in client device?
Thanks.

android natively does not have the ability to connect to ad-hoc networks. thats why ur x8 cannot connect to the x10..
it is possible only after editing the wifi.sh in the x8.. i dont rem exactly what to edit but a quick search on the forum should get u the answer..

IS The phone rooted?????

Hi Chetan,
Sorry but i actually wanted to connect to adhoc WIFI network too, I searched the forum with keywords like wifi.sh and adhoc wifi but couldn't get any results, can you point me to any such information modding some wifi file to connect to adhoc. pl pardon my search skills but i tried my best to get to such post
Thanks,
Nikhil
I can confirm that the only app that works for tethering is Barnale Wifi Legacy (you can find it in your Market).
I tried both legacy and norm, with 'wlan0' interface and channel 11(saw somewhere else it is preferred)
Is it possible to make it work in 2.1, like in 1.6?
Or is it possible to compile the netfilter module for 2.1?

nah prefers the spoon feed method
also if OP os talking bout using his/her Internet on his/her phone from the PC
Internet>computer>phone(via USB)
then that isnt possible only
Internet>Phone>computer is
On htc devices you could use the pc internet connection to browse with the phone while connected to usb..sadly cant do that on this phone

PC connection to mobile access
So, does that mean there is no way out to use my PC internet connection via USB on SGS2 (other than wifi)? Please suggest

Anybody???? This function could really help me as well...
you're looking for reverse tethering i think.
for some reason it seems to be much harder than it should be on android.

[Q] Using the Internet on your Xperia through your laptops Internet connection

Guys have any of you u shared your laptops internet connection to the phone? via WiFi or a USB cable? Im sure a smartphone of this generation should be able to do something like this but Im just not able to figure how.
I have an unlimited Internet connection on my PC so it would be nice if I could get the same on my mobile for browsing when home.
Please help.
Not to the phone, but from the phone.
Not sure how you would turn your laptop into a hotspot?
Set up an Ad-Hoc wireless network on your laptop.
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using xda premium
Well, tried ad-hoc, it dint work. Tried connectify, that dint work either.
Then got to know about the windows program mhotspot from mhotspot.com. It has turned my laptop into a virtual wifi hotspot through which my mobile can connect to the net through.
Good for those who have a limited or slow data connection on their phone.
connectify works in my laptop
Connectify works perfectly fine for me too... What error do you get, mate?
any tutorial for conectify? noob sorry

@OP: what you're looking for is called reverse tethering. Search for it, there are lots of solutions.

Help connecting to laptop via Wifi Direct

Hi,
I am trying to transfer files to and from my lappy using Wifi Direct, and don't know how.
I'm using a Dell XPS with Intel MyWifi direct. If I scan for Wifi direct devices from the phone, it turns up nothing.
I can share internet from my laptop to the phone no problem (using normal Wifi on the phone).
Can someone help me to set up file transfer using wifi direct? Thanks will be given.. :good:

I have done a similar thing but using the Samba file sharing app. Look in the Playstore.

Thanks, I'll definitely try that.
But shouldn't it be possible without another app?
At least pairing and receiving?

BUMP!
Hasn't anyone used the Wifi Direct on this phone??
If tou had searched a bit b4 posting, youd would have found out, that wifi direct is not working on all wifi adapters on your pc.
that being said, samba fileshare is a good alternative, or use droobox.

You could also try Airdroid, it's a cracking little app.
Hi,
Sorry, this is not a reply to your question but I can't find anybody else who has done this.. How do you share internet connection from Laptop to the phone Galaxy s3? I know you can share the connection from phone to laptop, but don't know how to do it the other way. Appreciate your info.
Thanks.

Use Connectify and create a AP-Hotspot (which creates "real" Wifi network, not Ad-hoc)
It is however not compatible with some (usually cheap low-cost) Wifi adapters/cards/USB-Sticks and requires Windows 7.

hello. I am trying hard to share files using WIfi direct(galaxy note 10.1 under german JB), to an Asus Laptop (intel MyWifi dashboard installed).
I can use the Wifi as Hotspot, but not in Sharing Files.
Struggling, installing drivers, many options..still not possible. I have the same problem. recognising, but refusing to connect each other.
REmoving firewall or adding exceptions, it seems it's a problem of security controls.
IF SOMEONE could help us.
NB : sharing files from any samsung to each others works prefectly well (tab to note, or note galaxy S...)
thanks for reply.

Use connectify
use samsung link that comes with samsung kies and your phone to transfer files .. via wifi.. you can download it from samsung official website if its not there ..
wifi direct
i know wifi direct can use between android. these dont use ure home network or router (now is using this method).
means transfer files from andriod phone to other android phone.
and its preety blazing fast compared to bluetooth (eg; u can transfer hd video in very short time).
the main point is fast transfer speed.... and on the go.
i'm also curious about same technic for a laptop.
means transfer files from andriod phone to laptop, like wise. or laptop to laptop.
it said the technology also have in laptop, but i also cant find the solution.
maybe we still have to wait for anothe year or +.
:laugh:
Do you use non stock roms like asop?
If so wifi direct will not work.

[Q] Ad hoc on Galaxy s3?

Hi. I come from Apple's iPhone, and don't know many things about Android.. One of the annoying "problems" Android software has, is not recognizing ad hoc hotspots... I googled for an answer, and found that there is an app called Wifi Ad Hoc enabler, but is compatible with only 5 or 6 Android devices. So i ask, if there is a way to fix this on my Galaxy s3 and be able to recognize and connect to ad hoc hotspots......
Can't be done yet but apparently some people are working on it.

Thank you for your answer... I suppose, that when a solution is found, it will be posted in this section... Thank you again...
In most cases people whe create/need ad-hoc hotspots, they are trying to tether the phone on the computer's internet connection.
If you're running Windows, try using Connectify on the computer (Windows 7 only). That application will create a real AP hotspot and not ad-hoc connections.

I tried to create a hotspot from my laptop using Connectify, but it sais AP is not supported, so i am still unable to see the wifi from the phone.. I tried creating a hotspot from my iPad, and no luck either . I think it is the same problem with ad hoc...
