Hi people, i don't have wifi in my house so i tried to create a wifi acces point on my laptot but in my mini pro doesn't appear my wifi.
can anyone help me?
I use win xp and ubuntu 11.04
thanks and sorry for my bad english (i'm spanish)
dare i ask what your settings are, such as...
ssid; or if its set to even broadcast?
encryption or no encryption?
is ics on?
what band(s) are your broadcasting off your notebook b/g/n?(think the mini only has b/g)
are you broadcasting from like the attic down to the basement?
My wifi chip is Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
The connection is shared and without encryption.
I used this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndYUkSdCQ3Q&feature=related

Maybe you tried Creating Ad-Hoc. Android does not show adhoc networks. There is also a Workaround. Thanks to blackplatypus. Details at

. But it is not sure, if it will work or not.
So there is another way, Make your pc act as an Access point.
Easy Way: First (Did not work for me. )
Easy Way: Second (Have not tested it.)
Hard Way:
Not sure if it will work on XP.
1. Go to Start -> Run, Type services.msc
2. Find if you have the "Routing and Remote Access" [/B]
If it is ther then Procceed. But if you dont have it, You can not make a virtual Wifi Router.
3. Right Click on "Routing and Remote Access", Select Properties, Select Automatic from the Dropdown menu, click on OK. Then restart your PC.
4. After Restarting the PC, Copy and paste the code below in any text file and save it as “.bat” file.
Note: replace yourSSID with any SSID you like and yourKEY with any password you like.
Code:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid=yourSSID key=YourKEY keyUsage=persistent
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
Double click on it.
You can see an Extra Wireless Connection in your “Network Connections” folder.
5. Right Click on your main internet connection, go to Properties, select Sharing, Put tick on First box and select the extra Wireless Network Connection.
Done.
Now you can use internet through this.

Thank you for the method !
Tether Wifi works fine.
But I'm obliged to return the code ("/data/data/android.tether/bin/start tether 1) every time I restart my Tattoo.
It's normal?
Thank you for your help.
Sorry for my bad English, I'm french =p .
Sorry for noob question.
What is wifi tether?
Google is your friend ! =P
Wifi Tether allows use your phone as a router (modem).
Wifi Tether uses the 3G connection, and translates into wifi signal.
I don't know if it's clear, but I'm not very good in English and some words escaped me.
it's clear... i dont need this for now, but is very usable. thx.
I followed the steps but still cannot use tethering
My PC can connect to the Tattoo and get the IP from it, and that app alerted to be connected by a client, but the PC still cannot browse webpage

Same here, I tried connecting through a netbook and a iPod Touch, both of them see and connect to the phone, but are unable to use internet.
Same problem
I am using Modaco R2. for HTC tattoo.
I installed wireless_tether_2_0-pre10.apk.
My laptop able to connect to Tattoo & give Ip address.
I tried to browse webpage... but it unable to go into internet.
BUT both, Tattoo & laptop showed that they are connected together!!!
Tattoo's access control even show my laptop's name correctly!
Using laptop command prompt, I tried to ping Default Gateway (192.169.2.100)
It showed 100% data LOST!!!.
What happen???
Download the latest apk (2.0.1), it works.
Hi Guys,
I have an HTC Tattoo and want to do wifi Tethering. My phone is not rooted yet and i cannot find instructions to do this (most of the instructions are for adding new roms). I do not want to add a new rom, i just want to tether my 3G connection by turning my phone into a wifi hub.

Thank you
I try to run without root access but not work.
Later on I root my Tatto and app start working with 1.6
Now not have WiFi card to try but when i get one i infform you about res.
hi all
straight to the point
is there anyway that i can share my PC or laptop internet connection with my x10??
i dont wanna use my x10 internet since its very limited
thnx
You haven't told us much about how your PC/laptop connects to the Internet...
Via wireless? - > Connect the x10 to your wireless network
Via ethernet - > You might be stuffed
Via USB 3G dongle-thing -> Possible to connect a wi-fi access point to an ethernet port (with ICS enabled) and connect to that... or perhaps get another USB device designed to share that connection... I know they exist, there used to be something like that so Nintendo DS could share a connection from a PC.
But it's not really clear unless you tell us how your PC/laptop connect to the Internet.
I'd be careful too as I am on my wi-fi network but it frequently drops back to 3G. I'm on unlimited data (O2 UK) so it's not really a problem for me, but if I wasn't aI'd be caning that data usage...
the PC uses a DSL internet line , the laptop too
i dont have wireless internet
my DSL is through the phone line , and i have a DSL modem
my modem conncted to the pc , through usb port
and the phone line is connected to that DSL modem
i dont have any wireless router and ethernet router
i heard about thethering .. but i understand its to use the phone internet connection on the laptop or pc ,
but i wanna do the exact opposite , use my PC's connection on my x10i
thanks
Create a adhoc wireless connection on your laptop preferebly without any security then connect your x10 with the same connection
You will have to do the settings manually
Hope this helps.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
our x10 doesn't have the capability to connect to an ad-hoc connection, at least i haven't been able to detect any. i was able to set up wifi tether on my friends phone, and the x10 was unable to detect it. Same problem when i set up my laptop for an ad-hoc connection, cannot be detected by the x10
has ur pc / notebook got wifi?
if so, u may try this:

it helped me when i was travelling abroad

Its true. I tried Xperia X10 with ad hoc network and it is not discovering the network. I am now unable to have wifi network for my xperia. I have belkin wifi usb adapter but I came to know that it is not compatible with connectify. My old wifi router is dead, I m struck with edge speed on my xperia.
Is there any way to use connectify with belkin wifi usb adapter? Or are there any other software that supports belkin to make wifi hotspot.
x10 cant detect ad-hoc network, so its useless to create one
and i cant use http: // connectify .me/ since im running both my laptop and pc on xp pro
no other solutions ??

i cant upload it,because you should edit this file Considering your ad-hoc connection name and it needs some setting to be activated!!!
i try to translate it if i can!!
here you are:
!) well at first you need to create an ad-hoc(any name you can use for it, my ad-hoc name is xperia)
2) then sharing your internet on it!!
3) trun on your x10s wifi.
4) create a network on your x10 with the same name!!!(add Wi-Fi network)
5) turn off x10s wifi
6) go to data/misc/wif/
after you open wpa_supplicant.conf
you should see this text:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/data/system/
wpa_supplicant GROUP=system
update_config=1
network={
ssid="xperia"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
}
change it like this:

wpa_supplicant GROUP=system
update_config=1
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="xperia"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE

}
dont forget the backup!!
and-roid.ir
i tried it , it didnt work , it just messed up my wifi on the x10
and i couldnt scan or use the wifi on my phone ..
so i had to put back the back up file
but i found something else
there is a small software which u can install on ur laptop or pc
called BZEEK
which will work , and will share the PC's wifi

You mean like connecting to another ad-doc or creating one of your own for others to connect? For the second one, you need barnacle from market - works great.

there is a program called Connectify which use your laptop wifi to make a hotspot area.. you can connect your android phone to the said hotspot. www.connectify.me only available to windows 7 and windows 2008
I am assuming that you already know how to a create adhoc network on your laptop and share your internet connection.
X10 can connect with adhoc networks, but you will need to set it up manually. The steps are outlined here. Root required.
From the article here:
Windows 7 comes with a new feature for sharing your computers internet connection. Now you can do it wirelessly. Well, As long as your system’s wireless network adapter supports Windows 7 “virtual wi-fi” feature, you can do it.
Next you need to check if your network card has the latest driver to support the feature. Intel, Broadcom, Realtek and some other NIC makers provide such drivers.
If the two above conditions are met, you are good to read on …
1. Open an elevated command prompt (Type “CMD.EXE” in the start menu search bar, then right click the cmd.exe link and select “Run as Administrator”).
2. In the command window, type: netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=MyNet key=MyPassword
Replace “MyNet” with the name you want to use for the wireless network and replace “MyPassword” with your chosen password for accessing it)
3. Press Enter.
4. Now type: netsh wlan start hostednetwork
5. Press Enter.
6. Open Control Panel and go to Network and Sharing Center.
7. Click Change Adapter Settings.
8. Right click your Internet connection and select Properties.
9. Click the Sharing tab.
10. Check the box that says “Allow other network users to connect.”
11. Choose your virtual wi-fi adapter and click OK.
Now wi-fi enabled gadget (mobile phone, laptop, ipod, etc) within range should see your new wireless network and others can connect to it if they know the password.
if you've turned off your computer and need to enable this feature, you can just type "netsh wlan start hostednetwork"
Connectify is a good option though if you don't to do the steps above.
====
if this isn't about the topic then ignore 'coz i'm a bit confused as to what you wanted to do.
the question is do you want to share your laptop's internet connection so that your x10 mini can connect to it?
OR
do you want to create share your x10 mini's internet connection so that others can connect to it? (Barnacle is the answer)
anyway, as far as i know, x10 mini/mini pro can't connect to any adhoc network.
I have xperia x10 mini pro. Trying to set up wi-fi adhoc (IBSS) with a laptop.
Changed / system / etc / tiwlan.ini
Code:
...
WiFiAdhoc = 1
dot11DesiredSSID = x10mp
dot11DesiredBSSType = 0
...
and / data / misc / wifi / wpa_cupplicant.conf
Code:
ctrl_interface = wlan0
wpa_supplicant GROUP = system
update_config = 1
eapol_version = 1
ap_scan = 2
network = {
ssid = "x10mp"
scan_ssid = 1
key_mgmt = NONE
mode = 1
frequency = 2412
}
When I turn on wi-fi on the phone immediately goes to connect to the correct grid, for a long time hanging message "Obtaining IP address ...", and then says" failed ".
What's the problem? What's best way to organize such a network?
USB tethering on froyo works if you need to use the phone's internet on PC. Sometimes, we just need to do it the other way around (lets say the PC doesn't have a wireless card, or we only have ad-hoc networks that are not discoverable without patching) and use our PC's net on android through USB.
Few people have done it using bridges. I did it using squid proxy server on ubuntu.
1.) Install squid and allow http access to all required clients.
2.) Connect the phone with usb tethering on.
3.) Ubuntu detects it as usb0. Now change the ip of usb0 from 'Automatic DHCP' to 'Shared to other computers'.
4.) Fire up the terminal emulator and enter the following.
#su
#netcfg usb0 dhcp
If all went well, you should now be able to connect to the internet.
Tried it and it's not working for me...
Or maybe i didn't setup squid right.
I'm not so good on ubuntu OS
I tried making a bridge connection on windows...the networks
The network seems to be connected but no internet connection...
Is it necessary to have Ubuntu OS?
Maybe some another how-to will help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793102
To setup squid to work:
type in:
sudo gedit /etc/squid/squid.conf
In that file find the section called
# ACCESS CONTROLS
Under the section find the line
#Recommended minimum configuration:
and add this line next to it
acl all src all
then find the section
# TAG: http_access
Under this section find the line
#Default:
and add the following line to look like
#Default:
http_access allow all
Close the file and restart squid as:
sudo start squid
That should setup squid to share your internet on all clients.
If required, reboot.
You can try out a similar approach on any other distro other than ubuntu.
i tried several searches about this topic, but none of them succeeded,
any update on this?
can i install ubuntu in my Win7?

Well, you can virtualize it in Virtual box. It's free for personal use.
by the way what is the squid your talking about?
@ TS
maybe you can provide us with the link for ubuntu and squid?
Come on.. if you don't already know what ubuntu and squid are there's no point in trying this.
Ubuntu = Linux, that's another operating system. Squid is a proxy.
You ashould at least have the decency of Googling those for yourself..

Hi guys,
Do you know why I wouldn't be able to see "USB tethering" option? No matter what I did so far, all I can see is the "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot" option and that works fine. But I need to use the USB Tethering!!!
Thanks for the help!
If someone is having the same problem as me (ie usb tethering mode not visible) just use a program called togglesettings lite. It can turn on the usb tethering for you. Now the reverse usb tethering works for me like a charm. Peace!

Download connectify from net... Google it
Hi community,
I've been trying to use connectify to have internet on my SGS2 via wifi. I have established a connection as I can see on connectify itself and on my device. But somehow I don't have internet and I cannot get onto my PC to fetch some files using ES Explorer.
I suppose something is wrong with the IP settings on my PC.
Die 10 besten Sex Dating : Welche passt zu Dir? Überblick datewelt.info/sex-kontakte/ - Die 10 besten Sex Dating
I set a static IP on my SGS2 with
IP-address: 192.168.2.2
Gateway: 192.168.2.1
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DNS 1: 8.8.8.8
DNS 2: 8.8.8.4
I found the DNS settings somewhere in a different forum (sorry I don't remember which) and it obviously worked for someone. Seems to be the regular DNSs from google.
On my PC my actual settings go like this:
IP-address: 192.168.2.1
Gateway: <none>
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
DNS 1: 192.196.3.1 (standard IP-address of the internet router)
Just to mention: yes, I turned on internet share...
I just realized that my virtual wifi adapter tells me something about an unidentified network, here is an image of it:
My PC is a Win7 Ultimate 32
Any suggestions are very appreciated!
Cheers,
Spampunk
