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

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 =)
Hi Guys,
Anyone on how to tether to win XP with a 2.2 ROM?
Anyone know which wireless tether app works with the temp root? I've tried a few and a no go.
I've seen claims of barnacle working, but have yet to try it myself.

Barnacle works perfect. Thank you, and I hit your Ty button.
It can't stay connected though, since root is temp, correct?

I have Barnacle wifi tether running on my 3D with temp root. Works great, but yes it is temporary for now.
If the wireless part isn't necessary, pdanet works just fine without root.

I can temp root with no problems using my MacBook Pro and Fre3vo but no wireless tethering joy for me. Wireless Tether doesn't work at all. Barnacle gives no errors with the ad hoc connection, everything looks fine, even Snow Leopard's network diagnostics say that my internet is working fine, but no data is transmitted or received. I even tried all the tips/tricks in this thread, still no joy. Any suggestions?
PdaNet works ok with USB but is very unstable with Bluetooth.
BTW I had no problems at all with the EVO 4G either in ad hoc mode (early versions of Wireless Tether) or non ad hoc (whatever that's called, recent versions of WT).
I've tried most of the methods out there and the one in this thread has the highest success rate IMO. One important thing: check your apps and if you have "Super User" installed as an app, uninstall it first before trying the method in that thread.
Barnacle works perfectly for me under that setup.

I have the same issue. I also have a mac so it might be a mac issue. I get tether to work on my wifes shift so I know my computer works.

Thanks, the version of wireless tether mentioned in the linked post worked for me and I'm posting using it! I had tried every other version of WT on the google site, and every version of Barnacle I could find, none worked.
BTW I didn't have any error messages or have to change any settings as that page suggests, it just worked the first time.
This is the only version of WT that starts without errors for me, and I have to us WT as it can set up the softap network (Asus Transformer doesn't see ad-hoc). It sees it and connects, but can never get an IP Address.
Anyone else experience a similar issue?
How I got it running......
1. Get temp root by one of the methods in the forum
2. Download the wifi tether apk from the root/FAQ thread.
3. In the settings change profile to htc evo 4g
4. In settings apply check to box to fix HTC routing.
Wifi tether should restart and you should be in business.

Just got it working on My Coworkers 3vo. download wifi tether 3.2 from the web, then go into settings and there is a setting in the menu that says enable for htc devices, once I did that it worked like a charm.
**Note** you need temp root

You mean this version, 3.1 beta 2? I've tried all the versions out there and some work perfectly some of the time, some never work, but none work all of the time. Can't figure out what changes, it's so random. I'm using the 3.1 beta 2 version to write this, but yesterday it didn't work and tomorrow I predict it won't work. BTW every time I start this version I get an error/warning message that some necessary thingamajigs aren't there, but I dismiss the message and it works anyway.
And of course I know I have to re-root after every restart etc.
works sporactically
Both Barnacle Wifi Tether and Andriod Wifi Tether work sporadically for me. It worked a few days ago and now it doesn't work.
is 4g tether working? I could not get it to work using barnacle
Barnacle works perfect for me with 4G...I haven't had one problem with it...
Supposedly, a beta version of "Wireless Tether for Root Users" worked so long as you checked a box in the settings that was specific to HTC devices. I forget where there.
Has anyone tried to tether the cpu using pdanet, then creating a hotspot on the cpu using its built in wireless adapter? Wireless Wifi apps arent working for me so I'd thought I try thinking outside of the box. But I haven't gotten it to work yet
The whole point of tethering is to send a wifi signal without using your computer.
Noone wants to carry their computer around all the time, but sometimes you need internet on your devices that dont have a usb port.
Yea its mostly so I can create a wireless hotspot at home so I can use my ipod touch

Why not just use one of the many temp root methods and tether like that if you want WiFi for your iTouch?
Temp Root + Wireless Tether for Root Users
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
It initially tells you that you aren't root, but then it works fine when you enable it (at least for me on the newest beta).
Yea I have that. It doesn't work consistently but ima try re-rooting my phone

Use PdaNet to tether to your laptop. Use Connectify on your laptop to create Wifi Hotspot.
I'll try that and report back if it works

PDANet works on mine. I think wifi tether will work if you're rooted. I am not rooted, so cannot say for sure.
I just rooted. I installed wifi tether. The phone makes it look like its working but if it does not show up in the network list of any of my devices like my laptop and my tablet. Anyone have wifi tether working after root?
I used the 3.2 beta of WiFi tether on my rooted photon and it worked great for me.
Which WiFi tether are you using? Who is the author? Did you get it from the market?
Nevermind, I picked up Barnacle Wifi from the market and it appears to work fine. I am posting this message from my Macbook over the barnacle wifi on my photon

Scratch this! The Barnacle program does work but when you turn it off and I did this twice to repeat it, I had to reboot my Macbook, my phone and for whatever reason why my home router in order to get my Macbook and Photon to connect to my home network again. So I guess back to square 1, anyone know a program that works properly? I have tried many now including different versions of WiFi tether and my Photon will not show up on any of my device networks.

I already reported PDAnet works fine. Not free but I've been using it since my Hero days almost 2 years ago and its been well worth the cost.

I downloaded out directly from their website.
i had to change the power settings then it worked fone 10+mbps when retrieving media
I used pdanet to USB tether and ir0t worked great. It was almost too easy!
I can confirm that WiFi Tether if you go to there website the 3.1 Beta 2 appears to work perfectly on a rooted Photon. My phone now shows up as a network and with security on and everything my tablet and laptop surfed the net no problem.
I disagree 3.2 doesnt work , the best you can get is adhoc and it tells you that access control can not be enabled
I can confirm that my paid-for copy of PDAnet 3.02 works on my Windows laptop w/ my non-rooted Photon over USB. However, PDAnet does not do wifi tethering.

What does your comment even mean. So is only adhoc bad? What is the use of access control?
What would be the ideal situation? Sorry for asking so many questions but I have never used the wifi tether 3.2 app before.

3.02 works for me without problem. Are you using the free or paid version? The free version has some major limitations.
easytether works, not talking about pdanet but the wifi tethering app doesnt

Just a heads-up for anyone trying to connect to WiFi Tether with some/most Android tablets (like my Xoom). You might need to modify your device to be able to join ad-hoc networks. For the Xoom, it was as easy as replacing the wpa_supplicant binary.
Before I changed that file, my Xoom couldn't see the wireless network that my MoPho was broadcasting.
My X2 is rooted but I can't get google wired tether to work.
http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/
Anyone know why?
Google wifi tether works fine.
Im using easy tether and working like a charm. What wired are you using/
I would like to use the google wired tether as linked above. One click action and no drivers to install. PDAnet or EasyTether require drivers to be installed in windows for them to work. My last phone (HTC Eris) was rooted and the google wired tether worked fine. Doesn't want to work for some reason on my X2
I got it working one night on my X2 I dont recall how but Verizon picked up on it and threw the call 611 in my face. Went to wireless tether.
I tried this app too on my PC. It recognized that there was some sort of connection between the phone and the computer but said there was a network cable unplugged which I didnt understand. I havent been able to find any usb tether app that works. But maybe they made the phone to not be able to without the paid service.
