I wanted to know if there is an app that allows to tether via usb using wifi... Im currently using PDANet which i think only works using 3G.
Thing is theres is alot of open wifi in my appartment and id rather use my phone instead of getting a wifi card.
Thanks.

If not, how do I go about getting this and tethering?
No it doesn't

For Tethering - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1057665 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=980636
Better to use either of these for tethering:
WiFi Tether
Barnacle
Don't use the Market link for Barnacle at the Barnacle site. Instead click on this Barnacle .apk to download the apk.
Why do you say its better to use one of those?

Service provider can more readily "see" if you are tethering using APN method. If you search you will find threads discussing it.

Globe doesn't support mobile tethering even for the iPhone unless you pay them more and activate tethering through one of their supersurf plans. Same with Sun. Not sure with Smart.
Is the phone branded for example I whit three net work.l can't tether with my threr network locked phone. But a can with my genaric htc.
is there any way that i can use my samsung android for tethering wpa/wpa2 wifi signals? it can only tether adhoc and most of my wifi enabled gadgets cant read adhoc. Thanks!

Have you tried using the native portable hotspot function? It's built right into the GS2, and I've used it just fine.
Settings > Wireless and network > Tethering and portable hotspot > Portable Wi-Fi hotspot settings
If that doesn't work for you, you can always root and install WiFi Tether for Root users: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
yes, but the problem is it only share adhoc and it works only to iphone coz iphone can also read adhoc connection, when u tried to connect to other android it doesnt work

Um, he told you to use the NATIVE function, not a third-party app.
Third-party apps are adhoc, native tethering is a proper access point. I use it all the time with my Tab 10.1

Not sure what your looking at. I share my WPA PSK 2 hotspot all the time with all my devices. As above mentioned. Its the native feature.

Please clarify what you are trying to do... Cause it is not really clear to me.
Are you saying you are trying to get a DIFFERENT android phone to connect to your phone when it is functioning as a hotspot? Why would you need do that???
What about laptops? Or other wi-fi capable devices, like a tablet? As I said, when I start a hotspot on MY GS2 the same way I described above, I was able to connect my laptop to it and access the internet just fine, even connecting to my work's VPN.
So the question is, what are you doing, and what is going wrong that ISN'T what you are expecting?
i'm using a vpn and i try to use some wifi tether apps but i can't browse in my other android phone, i already search some info in net but i can't get an accurate answer in my question. is their any posible way to use wifi tethering android to android and using vpn connection.

I would recommend taking a look at FoxFi and if your rooted Wireless Tether for Root Users. Keep in mind depending on your carrier handles tethering you may have to change some app settings, for tethering to function properly. Let me know if you still have questions.

Are using the wireless hotspot or USB tethering feature of Foxfi? Make sure that your in a location where your phone is getting a strong data signal as well.
