Sorry I don't think I was explicit enough.
I really ment there isn't any proxy setting in the WiFi menu and was wondering if there was a way to input the proxy settings so that I can uee the WiFi at work.
Thanks

Gingerbread doesnt have a proxy feature. You can use Opera Mobile to browse(did that in college) but apps still wont work.
There are apps that can proxify things, but they require root which was an issue at the time for me.
Ok thanks I'll use that for the meantime
What apps would you recommend if I was to root my device?

I think, you can use autoproxy after you root your device

the ICS update should fix it as on ARC/One X official ICS ROMs we can manually define proxy servers when u add wifi connection
Ok thanks guys, I've just rooted it so I'll try autoproxy. Can't wait for ICS though

Ad hoc in your pc/laptop?
Why you didn't trying "Connectify" ?
It's simple to use, but in some wifi adapter card it has some bug. Sometimes it turn off the hotspot itself, didn't know why.
*Sorry for my bad english*

Can't connect to wifi in other countries

I have a Sony Ericsson xperia x10 and can't connect to a open wifi in another country. Like at Mc Donalds it says connected to wifi but it won't download any data. I also have a Motorola atrix and it connects without any problems. Is this a known issue?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
1-make sure airplane mode is turned off..
2-try to forget the wifi (talking about Mc'd)- then reconnect
Hope this help

Doesn't work either if you use any external wifi software? e.g: "wifi manager"?
Also, check and be sure that these places doesn't use any host or proxy (just to be sure)
Which ROM has installed? kernel?
Regards
Don't you have to sign I'm for those services?
Open browser and it should take you too McDonald's WiFi cloud website
Enter your mobile number in there and they give you free access
You have to sign up to get access as it's monitored
Hope this helps
If your browser doesn't take you to McDonald's sign in after Conncting, try dolphin browser, it's redirects are way better
Also where I live you can't download anything from market on WiFi cloud
But forums work fine

Download droidvpn, n tunko installer. Tunko installer will download the supported tun.ko to u'r sdcard. Then use droidvpn. Register first, then select 1 server to your nearest location. Activate it. N i think it not really free...

There is no way you can use 3g internet for free.
WiFi or nothing. Your choice.
To last poster: DroidVPN will use WiFi or 3G to connect to the private network, it has nothing to do with accessing internet. You need internet to connect to internet..doesn't make sense, eh?

No, it is true. They can bypass their network provider billing system, using vpn, ssh tunnel, certain proxy, certain port. By doing that their service provider dont know that they actually using data connection when on the service provider billing system seems like they're not.
But thats a fraud, and disscussing it is agains xda rules, and i just cant stand these cheapskate who can afford a few hundred dollar phone but cant spend a few bucks more for data service.

AD-HOC Connection in ICS

Hello all,
From other ICS devices I own and follow (and don't worry I know all about the wpa_supplicant issue) I was wondering if anyone has been successful in sharing their laptops internet with the phone?
Case: I at work have an unrestricted internet line, I can't connect a wireless router but I could share my internet via the wireless of my laptop (ad-hoc). Has anyone succeeded in doing this?
Thank you.

Thanks for the suggestion, I found the app and downloaded it but didn't work on my phone, it gave an error in the las segment because it cant find the system group "wifi" in my phone. For what I can see the dev stopped updating this app, in my eyes its a shame because that could of been very useful and profitable for him at the same time.

This has been now a life long quest for me since upgrading my Xoom to ICS. I would have perfect connection with GB so I know our hardware supports it, but as of ICS they changed the drivers... I would personally pay for an app / option like this and I know that many others would as well.

wifi adhoc
Make your laptop wifi hotspot
Run dos as administrator and type as follows
netsh
wlan
set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid="name" key="password"
start hostednetwork
show hostednetwork
stop hostednetwork
IMP:- It works on windows 7 and 8 only
Thank you for your help!
I followed your instructions and I got the wireless network up and running. When I try to connect my phone to it (Evo 4g LTE) the phone sees the network, asks for the password, tries to connect but keeps disconnecting and connecting constantly nonstop.
Any suggestions?
