Hi guys, I have my Atrix 4G with AT&T stock 2.3.4 ROM and I really need to connect to ad-hoc connections. I can see it, but it says "Obtaining IP address" and then disconnects.
I need a working-with-ad-hoc-connections wpa_supplicant or any other solution.
Regards.

Are you using the mobile hotspot app that came with the stock ROM? What's the device you are trying to connect to?
Sent from my Atrix XDA Premium App
Connecting to adhoc works with Cyanogenmod 7. However, for the stock rom u might need to patch the wpa_supplicant to work with adhoc connection. Primarily such restriction by factory OEM rom because adhoc connection drain a lot of battery.

so cm7 has adhoc support so there is no need for replacing the wpa suplicant?

What Cyanogenmod installation are you running? I've downloaded the latest from here, is that correct? I mean, that one will give me ad-hoc?
Thanks.

Can the LG Optimus One P500 be reverse tethered i.e. when the mobile is connected to a PC with the cable then the phone can access the internet via the PC.
My HTC Incredible S used to do this and I did search a bit before posting this but I couldn't find a way to make my LG Optimus One P500 do it. Any suggestions?
just buy a wifi router and u can access it anywhere in ur house

Thanks for that reply. I do have a wifi router already
Reverse tethering will allow me to use internet available on any machine even while I'm in transit. Think laptop+data card
Hence the query
Used to use this some time back when I was on Windows.
Also, cool sig
I use this www.mhotspot.com

That works if your laptop has WiFi. Sometimes I have an old laptop with me which doesn't have WiFi or I'm visiting a friend who doesn't have WiFi. Reverse tethering hack would really help out.
Couldn't find a link for reverse tethering. Any suggestions?

Maybe this? --> http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html
Not sure. Haven't tried. Anyway, what error/thingy do you get?
It just need a computer with a internet connection..
and Connectify doesn't work for me or some other people..
Cause android doesn't support ad-hoc ...

i still have yet to be able to connect via wireless tether...no matter what version i use...
Using 3.0 pre 14 and it just works.
Maybe you guys should try and verify you are rooted....use root check from the market.
Thinking you are rooted and being rooted are 2 different things....no?

I installed the market version of Wifi Tether (currently 2.0.7):
https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether
It worked for me to a limited extent, but many features, including big ones like encryption and infrastructure mode aren't compatible with the Photon.
here is the link to the beta that isn't in the market yet. Works perfect and has encryption as well as other bells and whistles.

Connecting to Gateway laptop and O know the difference between rooted and not rooted. This problem is common for many users...

Most android tablets can't connect to adhoc networks. The photon creates a adhoc network. You have to root your tablet and change the wpa_supplicant file. Search the tablet forums for "wpa_supplicant" instructions.

The transmit power is set to 0mw as default.....you have to go to settings to start transmitting and recieving.....i set it to friggin 30mw and it worked fine
Thank you!! I've been looking for a good tethering app with my new Photon, and haven't had much success in finding one that works - looking forward to trying this one out!
=)
Interesting that I never noticed this before but I got a No Access Control message when I start Wireless tether.
"Sorry but your kernal does not have all necessary features for the Access Control feature of this application. Access Control will be disabled."
Was using Beta 2 but downloaded the Beta 4 version. After seeing that message I hit ignore and never saw it again.
Anyone else see that message.

OK - so I got it to work - it turns out that some windows 7 drivers are buggy as hell - especially for the intel wireless network cards - I installed a different driver (a generic one as opposed to the actual driver for my wifi card) and tethering now works.
Doesn't wifi tether for root have an infrastructure mode option? I thought it did.
Edit: Nope, it doesn't. Also can't use access control options at this time.

By limited connectivity you mean that you are connected to your wireless network and you don't have internet access right?

Today i re-flash my old ROM, my phone WiFi connection and data connection internet not work. Still i have active WiFi and Data connection with all the settings, but no internet connection. I have ADSL connection and i use WiFi enable router for share that connection with my WiFi devices. This's not my ADSL connection or my mobile network issue. So how do i fix it?

Hello,
I can't use app Reverse Tethering 2.30 with the last Cyanogenmod 10 (Nightly) , i always have notification of autorization superuser whereas i autorize and memorize the action.
This application is compatible with Cm 10 or not officially ?
Can someone test for him ?
Thank you from France.
Have you tried this app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.littlelan.ReverseTether.Trial
That one is different from what you are referring to right?

Try posting in the thread you mentioned in the OP or hope someone on CMX tests it for you. I'm on CM9 as of now
