Well I've tried apps. Currently rooted and running a slimmed down ROM and using WiFi Tether Router because it just works flawless. However is there a way for the tether device to be seen on the same network its sharing? I like to connect my phone to my PC via WiFi for lots of reasons.
Possible?

just received my A70, installed GApps and a few programs through the file viewer after transferring via USB.
Then, I wanted to download a few apps from the market...
I got Barnacle setup on my X10, and my laptops can both see the new WiFi network created by it, but the Archos can't
Has anyone tethered using this method before?
If so, I think I am using the wrong channel to connect, but can anyone advise which WiFi channel the A70 would require??
I can pick up other WiFi networks, but can't actually connect to them due to restrictions on the routers (I'm at work, they require MAC addresses and for some reason wont let me add this to the network )
Try any channel below 11. It's a known kernel issue.
if it creates an AD-HOC connection, then that's the issue.
Aha, yes it does. Damn
I'll have to try the proper tethering method then using the cell phone tether option (which I briefly tried but failed to connect through bluetooth)
Try "Wireless Tether for root users" with it's bluetooth option. Works for me Have the tether activated on the phone while pairing it with the Archos though.
Currently running Super Clean 2.8 and wireless tether does not work. Is there a working combo that will work? Some one suggested this but it did not work either. http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...ame=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk&can=2&q=Generic
I just tested this (android wifi tether) on SC2.8 and it works fine. I think even the 3G Mobile Hotspot is supposed to work.
At what point does it fail?
Every device I have attempted to connect fails to see the device in the list of wifi connections. I've tryed with no security or encryption but my phone still doesn't show up in the list wifi connections.
I've just flashed Liquid Smooth 3.2 rom on my thunderbolt
and I realized I don't have the stock Mobile Hotspot app that I had on the Sense rom.
But I found that it had its own android wifi tethering(AndroidAP) on settings.
I turned it on and tried connecting it to my laptop
and it said I had limited access.
I've tried Open Garden Wifi Tether app, which works but not as fast enough as
the stock 4G mobile hotspot. (speed test result range 1~2 Mbps)
I'm expecting the android wifi tethering in the rom would be faster, but
I can't get it to work!!
O yea, and I've also tried USB tethering while connected via USB to my laptop,
and this didn't work at all. there wasn't even a mere respond on my laptop.
Can anyone help me to get this thing work,
or is there any fast wifi tethering app out in the market
just as fast as the 4G speed?
I can currently tether my Verizon GS3 to my laptop using WiFi Tether for root users. I want to bridge a connection to my ethernet port so I can connect my original Xbox to play online via Xlink. Everything goes fine until I bridge the connections because I suddenly lose internet connection to my GS3. This has worked for me in the past when I used my OG Droid on a 3G connection. Anyone have any explanation on what could be causing it to not work?
My settings in WiFi tether are:
Device Profile: Generic ICS
Setup Method:Netd(master)
This is what I gathered was how to get wireless tethering to work for me, and it has.
hi fellows
i just installed a 4g device in my laptop for internet access. It working fine. Next i made the laptop a hotspot via adhoc connection and after that though internet is fine but i am unable to connect my samsung sii via wifi with it. Even though a friends iphone connected to my lappys hotspot but my phone doesn't and neither does it show that a hotspot/ wifi connections exists.
help
Ad Hoc was designed only for local connections, not Internet.
Use Connectify to make hotspot.

You need to setup a virtual router or if your laptop has a router you can share net via that, originally custom roms does not support ad hoc, but certain roms are modified to enable it.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.
Router has wlan infrastructure mode, not adhoc. It doesn't matter if the ROM supports it or not.
