now that we have a soft root for the wildfire, has anyone got barnacle (or any other wifi tethering app) to work? i'm trying to tether my ipad and it seems to connect to the access point, but there's no internet connection.
it seems as DHCP is not functioning correctly, the ipad doesn't get an ip for the gateway.

Hi,
I've tried the usb/bluetooth tethering with the archos 101 and my desire but this doesn't work.
What does work is setting my desire up as a wifi tether... I can connect to the internet using my internet apn, however I have a seperate apn on my phone to connect to my work email and this doesn't work strangly enough
anyone any ideas?
Thx!

Posted here, since I believe this is a general and not device specific issue.
So, I have set up a VPN server on OSX Lion Server edition.
It is using l2tp with preshared key and username/password for login.
i(beep) works fine and connects. Laptop works fine and can connect.
But...
1. When Iam on local network (same IP segment) I can connect using Android native l2tp VPN connection setup with PSK and user/pass.
2. When I try to connect from external (3G or other WiFi net) I am unable to connect.
3. When I enabe native tether on Android device, and connect i(beep) to the Android AP, I still am able to connect from i(beep).
These three steps tells me it is not a carrier issue, and possibly an Android issue.
Did anyone experience this (and even better.....did you find a solution)?
Kinda like the l2tp connection for security, and also Lion natively does not supply pptp connection.

I am trying to do the same thing, I havent got the VPN to function yet though but I think its a router issue among other things. I bought a domain name and I am using that with dyndns to help simplify the ip change issues... I am getting a new router to test here next week so hopefully I'll have a better idea.
However now I am worried I'll run into the same issue as you!! lol... Its been a while since you posted, have you found a solution yet?
No. Didn't find a solution, but you might be correct in assuming its a router issue. Have a Netgear myself, and those have had quite a few issues.

I ended up getting a new Airport and it has pretty cool setup integration with the Server / Airport Utility, however I still cannot connect with the VPN connection.
My initial reason to set this up was to use PLEX... AND this actually works very well if I setup my connection through the PLEX connection settings.. but I still can't get it to work with the Android VPN setup.... (tested 3G and WiFi)
..also I cannot get the VPN to work with a Windows PC... tested a Mac (hackintosh) and it worked instantly...
so I think its a Mac thing maybe... Since PLEX is working... I am happy but would still like to get the VPN connection working properly. I suspect I'll need to call Apple about it though
I am also have a similar issue.
OSX Server running 10.6.8
L2TP VPN and PPTP services running
My iPhone and laptop can connect just fine. My HTC One X and HP Touchpad (CM9) can not. Both say the address can not be resolved. The server is sitting in the DMZ and if I enable the web server both devices can resolve to the default welcome page just fine.
1. It isn't a DNS issues since they can connect via the web
2. It isn't a port issue since other clients can connect
Is there some dumb setting i am missing in the VPN setup?
Thanks

OSX Lion Server L2TP VPN and ICS not working
Hey guys.. I got PPTP to work to OSX Lion Server by making sure PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec forwarding were enabled through my router.
Also, make sure to check the VPN logs in /var/log/ppp/vpnd.log to see why it's not connecting..
I have a HTC Sensation Xe with the latest android : 4.0.3.
I have a VPN - IPSEC Xauth PSK connection set, IT WORKS FINE over wifi, it is connected and the server are reachable. But does not work on 3g/edge. It says that the VPN is conected just fine, but the servers are not reachable...I have tried many thinks. It does not work on edge, on gsm, on 3g...NONE.
My provider and SIM is fine, because I used Iphone for 1 week, and the same VPN worked file.
That VPN connection type is new in Android...could it be a BUG ? I really need that vpn...I do not want to go for Iphone...
Thanks for any help !
I've posted this in the HTC forum for my mobile and realized that this may be more of an Android directed inquiry.
I've been able to use Wifi Tethering (from Google Play) (version 2.0.7) to successfully connect a Motorola Xoom to my HTC One X mobile via bluetooth. However, when I connect to my VPN service with my mobile, I no longer have active internet access with the Xoom. The bluetooth connection is still active but when I try to surf the internet the browser just hangs and then errors out. I was wondering if there was something I could do with the DNS settings with the VPN service or IP routing on the mobile to fix this issue.
Can anyone provide a little direction on where to begin troubleshooting this issue? I've Google'd this issue to death for the past four hours and have had zero luck finding anything regarding VPN's and bluetooth tethering. I have found similar issues with WiFi tethering but I believe that protocol works differently. I could be wrong though!
