Is there a working method to get the GS3 to connect to Adhoc networks?
I want to share my computer's cable internet at home and was really disappointed to find out it wasn't possible. I don't want to buy a wireless router just for that.
There's a few Apps on the market but they all kill your WifI so will have to wait for updates.

Hello,
Is there any similar setting for SGS2?

The goal is to share internet FROM PC TO SGS2 using USB.
Very useful at work which I don't want to waste my 3G data plan.
This is not possible direclty. If you have WiFi no problem
If you dont have Wifi router, you can use http://www.connectify.me/ to create virtual hotspot on your PC and then connect your phone to that hotspot and then you can share interet from PC to SGS2
I know about connectify, but at office (bank) there is no option for wifi devices .....NO WAY!
That's why I insist for USB connection.
not possible as far as i know. these are the only options
I'm not talking about using my phones wifi to connect my phone to my home network. I got my internet shut off for a couple of days and want to use my phone as my internet for my house until I get cable back on. I know I could turn on the wifi tethering and have my devices use that but what I am trying to do is different. I have one of my roku players disengaged from my home network (an accident) and it will not reconnect to it (so I can stream my files from my PC) because when it goes through the testing on the roku it cannot access the internet on the home network, so it won't connect to my home network. My theory is that if I can connect my phone to my router, my roku will be able to connect to my home network because it will now have internet connectivity. I just don't know how to do it if its even possible.
I hope that makes sense.
I have a dlink dir-632 wireless n router, if it helps.

Thx but that's not going to help me with what I want to do. That's a packet sniffer/wireless network monitor software.
I know that I have looked into this before and that Android Gingerbread and ICS did not have the ability to connect to a wireless Ad-Hoc network with shared internet connection. I read some places that this was supposed to be included in JB, but I am still unable to see any wireless Ad-Hoc networks when I create one using Win7.
I just work in a remote location with little to no 3g and definitely no 4g....it would be awesome if I could share the wired connection on my laptop. I know that there are 3rd party "virtual router" applications that can accomplish this, but it is a corporate laptop and I cannot install anything on it. Thanks!
I just bought a chromecast and I'm trying to figure out if I can get my GNexus to host the hotspot and be the chromecast remote.
In more detail:
I do not have internet from a cable/satellite company. The only internet connection I have is through my cellphone hotspot.
Chromecast will be connected to the internet through my cellphone hotspot (SSID: AndroidAP).
When my cellphone has the hotspot running it does not show up on its own network (AndroidAP).
I need the phone to show up on the network (AndroidAP) so that I can see the chromcast and use the phone as a remote.
Is this even possible?
Really? No one?
Is it possible?
I'd be very curious to know if this is possible or not. I found this thread because I'm wanting to do the very same thing. I still have unlimited data through vzw so this would be terrific if there was a way. The only thing is that the wifi turns off when the hotspot is turned on (at least on mine) so there would have to be a way to get it to connect to its own hotspot without making mobile data shut off.
Same thing needed Badly here @@
I also want to connect my moto e to it's own hotspot for remote control my tablet using my phone as mouse(specifically) and keyboard/joystick.
(I know keyboard and joystick can be possible without doing that but MOUSE can't)
Hellllllllpppppppp ......
1.5 years later and there's still no way to do this. Not only that this is the only page on the internet about it.
The de thread here
I want to use my phone WiFi network to connect my PC to it and then use the phone to remotly control keyboard and mouse on my PC over WiFi, but I just can not connect my phone to it's own WiFi network. :/
One thing I could do is using a WiFi extender to connect both devices to, but then I couln't get the devices connected to internet since they're connected to a "no-internet" WiFi extender network.
Still nothing? I need it to use my security camera which needs internet connection. I also need to be able to view it on my phone using the camera app but the devices have to be on the same network. Sux that i can't do this.
I know it seems pointless, but there is a reason for this... Is it possible to share my 4G/LTE internet with a router so that other devices can connect to the internet through my phone while my phone still possess the ability to use the internet?
Most would recommend setting up the hotspot, but the apps that I am trying to use are checking to see if the device is connected to a network and hotspot "disables" wifi so it looks like my phone isn't actually on a network.
What I would like is for the phone to connect to a router and share it's internet while it retains internet access.
Nexus 5 [INTERNET from 4G/LTE] ---> Nano USB Router [HooToo Tripmate Router] ---> Nexus 7 [As car stereo head unit]
Thanks and any help is greatly appreciated.
