Hi...
I am new to this Forum and to Android Device also.
Earlier i used Apple Iphone 3Gs , but now shifted to HTC One S
Problem i am facing is , i can't connect wifi from laptop to HTC one S through connectify
Through connectify,wifi sharing is available for other laptops and iphone , but it is not working for HTC one S
As some one posted in other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778767
that we can see 3 options, but only 2 options are displaying in my connectify... i dont have wifi access point in the advance option...only ad hoc
I am working on Panasonic CF 29 laptop , Windows 7 Ultimate32 bit OS with Intel Pro/Wireless 220BG network Connection 9.1.1.15 version..
I tried Update Driver , it is saying as uptodate... but still the problem exists , i cant connect wifi and also Hosted Network is showing No (while i run a command in cmd prompt)
and one more thing while i used mhotspot also no use it is saying as the group or resource is not in the correct state to perform.
please guide me to enable wifi to my HTC one S android mobile also....

How to connect ad-hoc wireless?

Hi all
I want to know how tk connect ad-hoc wireleas its really needed??
Thanks.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
It really depends on what you want to connect to with the AD-HOC wireless connection the HD2 uses as some electronic devices do not support AD-HOC like most Sony products for example. But there is a work around. So please post back here with what you are trying to connect to.
I have internet sharing to other so i want to connect the shared internet but the shared wireless does not shown in wireless.

Sorry for the late reply but I think you are looking for WiFi Router for Windows Mobile. There is also a paid WiFi Router app in the Market call WMRouter if I remember correctly. But I use to use the free one all the time and loved it.
I dont think u get my question.
I want to connect the ad-hoc wireless ,when u share internet from ur pc the type of connection is ad-hoc some device cant read this wireless or find it,so the point is by which way i can connect from my hd2 to those type of wireless?
Thank u very much.

Ok I think I might understand you question now, and yes I know what AD-HOC is. To put it simply it is a computer to computer connection. Anyway if you are talking about using the AD-HOC connection to put your HD2 online via your computers internet connection then you will have to use a WiFi router and access your home internet connection via Wifi. I don't think you can connect your HD2 any other way to non cellular network, at least that I know of.
Ok
so its microsoft .
thank u very much .
Hi there,
I have encountered some strange problem with my HD2.
I cannot make ad-hoc connections with most laptops, except for maybe one.
This means, I cannot connect to an ad-hoc connection set up on a laptop, nor can I turn my HD2 into a wi-fi router with most computers.
The connection is detected but after trying to connect, it just cycles and eventually windows (tried xp, vista and 7) notices that it cannot connect.
I have read that it may be the case of:
1. IP mapping (but why should this happen if all these laptops did connect with my previous i8000?)
2. WLAN Channels (Whereas I found no way to access/change them on wm6.5)
It's a new HD2 so it's got the pre-installed sharing feature. I also used the wmwifi router trial and downoladed the htc installable router app (tom codon's).
I've searched the forums for 3h allready and found no conclusion - will be really greatful for some hints.
Thanks.

[RESOLVED?] Ad'hoc connectivity problem

Hi Everyone,
I'll keep this short.
Stop mucking around with wpa_supplicant files. Download this program called Virtual Router:
http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/
It shares you existing wired internet connection the same way manually creating an ad'hoc network does, except when your android device tries to connect to the network it actually works.
Let me know if it works for you, because its worked for 4 different devices i know of so far without any tinkering;
SGS2 with modified wpa_supplicant file
SGS2 without modified wpa_supplicant file
SGS1 without modified wpa_supplicant file
ASUS Transformer tablet PC without modified wpa_supplicant file
Cheers
Do you know of anything available for OSX that does this?
I tried searching around for one but I cannot find one. Sorry
I'm not very familiar with Macs, but have you tried Virtual Router running through Boot Camp?
Does not work for me. I got an Error saying Virtual Router could not be started. All my drivers are up to date and my SGSII is connected to my PC
Virtual Router won't work on Windows 7 home basic edition.
So this program does just the same as connectify?

Could you give me some details about your OS and Hardware? I'm certainly not claiming to be a wizz when it comes to Hardware and Networking problems, but i may be able to help

Yeah sorry! I didn't read the documentation of the program before posting, but apparently this program only works on Win7 (minus Basic Edition)

Sure, although internet sharing is achieved through a slightly different process. If anyone has had problems connecting a Android device through Connectify, i strongly recommend they give Virtual Router a try. Chances are it will work on Virtual Router (providing you're running Win7)
Also, when i run a speed test on my S2, i find internet speed is slightly faster on VR than Connectify. I don't know why that is (must be to do with the way both programs connect devices) but i'll take it!
Cheers

You can only share a wifi connection through Virtual Router when your PC is connected to a wired connection, i don't believe Virtual Router will be able to share wifi coming from your HSPA modem.
Also, how are you connecting your S2 to your computer?
Hi! With my Win 7 Ultimate SP1 doesn't work. "Virtual Router Could Not Be Started!" error.

does anyone got a solution for reverse tethering ?
i had a htc wildfire S and it has an option "Relais internet" it appears auto when usb cable connected. it connects my phone to computers internet.
Iam really so disappointed to don't see this feature on SGS2
and PLZZZZZZZZZ for people who ask why don't use wifi.
well I have a 3G connexion in my computer ( no rooter just a usb 3G network adapter). and my computer wireless card intel 4965AGN IT DOESNT SUPPORT hosted network which means no way to create a wifi hotspot (or use connectify or virtual rooter because its the same thing as creating a hosted network)
ad-hoc network can't be detected also with my sgs2 with official firmware JB 4.1.2 (XWLSD)
could anyone help please.
Thank you

Well there was a "reverse tether" app...
I had it but haven't tried it anytime coz I don't have internet on my PC anymore...so don't know for sure if it works..
It might just work for you...
I know this is very frustrating..has happened to me too when I had just purchased the phone...hadn't got any solution at that time so ended up purchasing a WiFi router..
Press thanx if I helped...

Try this thread (don't know if this works on SGS2 or not as I've never tried/needed it, but it's a good starting point for you to investigate further).

[Q] No Internet via Wifi ad-hoc (Connectify-me)

I have a new laptop running Win 7 64 bit. I am using a Wifi ad-hoc software named connectify-me. Connectify-me show the G-tab is connected to the ad-hoc wpf and the G-tab shows it is connected but, when I try load a web page I get "connection failed, unable to connect please review your network settings" I have disconnected and reconnect several times in both the G-tab and the
software "Connectify-me" and everything says I am connected. I can access he internet with the laptop. I am using a 3g mobile modem to access the internet. I originally had the modem and software on a XP laptop and never had a problem.
Try this one.
Virtual Router Manager.
it has the same specs of connectify but it is more reliable as of my experience..
what kind of kernel u r runinng on the gtab?
That was a very good tip. I am using the stock kernal that comes with Brilliant Corners 1.3.1. I am a little hesitant when it comes to kernals because I know so little about. them.

Unable to connect to adhoc wifi

Hi all,
I just got my brand new Samsung Galaxy SIII
All is well except for the fact that the phone is failing to even detect the adhoc wifi that I've setup. I get my home's internet using a mobile cdma usb modem and I've setup an adhoc wifi connection thru internet sharing option in windows 7.
Here's a twist though: When using my Ipod Touch- I noticed that the Ipod manages to detect the same adhoc wifi network I've setup- the Ipod also manages to connect to the network but fails to provide any internet. (from windows 7)
Oddly enough- the only way I can get adhoc wifi to work is when I use it on my Ipod from Linux Ubuntu. I cannot connect to adhoc wifis from either windows 7 or linux on my SGS3.
Is there any way I could get my SGS3 to detect and connect to the adhoc wifi from either windows 7 or Ubuntu with the mobile internet that I use at home??
Bump. Anyone??
Android's Wifi manager by default does not detect or use adhoc networks.
There exist several patches (requires root) but I'm not sure if they have been confirmed to work/ported to the S3 yet.
CM9 should include adhoc support.
I strongly recommend using the Windows7 application 'Connectify' which creates a full-fledged ap-mode network and not an adhoc while still allowing you to keep connected to any current Wifi network.
I guess similar tools might exist for OsX and Ubuntu Linux but I've only used them in forward tether and not reverse tether so far.
By the way, this is a forum not a support center. So it might take some time to get a reply.
Bumping after 3 hours is just rude seeing that we all try to work together for free

This issue is ICS Related, I had the Galaxy nexus for 6 months, i tried every solution that is out there with no luck, hopefully CM will include this fix or else use "Connectify" which personally I don't recommend.

If you haven't tried it already- then I suggest you try disabling your antivirus when you share the network. That's what I did in the end to finally make it work.
