Thanks alot "starbase64" for replying but i already mention that wifi router is not suitable for me because it only uses gprs for internet connection and i cant afford gprs its way too expensive in our country what i am searching is a program which works like "wifi router " but uses usb connection from the pc(connected to the internet through regular lan card) as internet source not gprs .sorry for my bad english if i am not making my point clears ,thanks anyways.anyone plz help.

erhm, considering the hassle you'd be going through (even if WiFiRouter worked with USB), why dont you just dish out the 10$ USD for a cheap wireless network card for your PC?
Then simply run Ad-Hoc WiFi internet sharing from your PC.
If you're thinking of having MULTIPLE devices connect to the phone like a router, well, that's simply not going to happen. The WiFiRouter software might call itself a "router", but the WiFi adapter in the phone isn't able to handle more than one wifi connection.
If you want PORTABILITY (plug in WiFi an internet cafe PC or public PC or school PC), buy a USB WiFi dongle adapter (maybe 20$ USD)
Sure, it would mean seting up internet sharing every time on a new PC, but then again you wouldnt be assured all public PC got Activesync installed to allow internet sharing via USB from your phone anyway.
OR
have you tried UNCHECKING "Allow Wireless Connection On Device When Connected To The Desktop" in Activesync connection settings (on the PC ) and then using WMWiFiRouter?

Thanks everyone for replying but still i think i am not making my self clear ,I will check about the active sync option .Anyways thanks alot and if some one found such a software plz do inform me here or by my e-mail [email protected]

There is also this new program, ICS, in the Development & Hacking forum. I haven't tested it, but you might want to check it out.

[Q] Desire connect to ad hoc wifi hotspot

I am using Desire and 2.2 version, but this version still cannot connect to ad hoc network for internet.
Is this any easy way to solve this problem?
Thanks all......

At the moment my desire is connected to a usb dongle wifi, because my wifi router is broken. First i've tried to make an adhoc network with my home computer but I failed. Then I installed tue usb wifi adaptor's software and it has an option to turn it into an access point and I've connected my desire to it.
I'm not sure if I'm helping you with this information, but I wanted to share my experience.

Hi Spritable, can you please elaborate or supply a link to this software? Googling it didn't bring up anything relevant. Thanks.

My USB wifi dongle is a RaLink model and I've downloaded the driver/application from the company's website.

I tryed this yesterday.

yes its for the pc.
and yes you can connect to another mobile phones wifi because its usually not adhoc.

i have connectify on my pc and i am still using adhoc because i have some very old clients in my wifi that cannot connect when i choose hotspot mode.
you see connectify may help but its not a solution for everyone.

[Q] annoying problem :(

ok my parents wont get wireless networking in our house anytime soon so im stuck with wired connections. to my laptop. that means im trying to create an adhoc network with my win7 laptop. and then i realised android doesnt support adhoc networks yet so i rooted it and got this app : http://code.google.com/p/desire-adhoc/
ok so im now connnected to and adhoc and ive sent internet sharing. however, my computer won't send packets to my phone, so i cant access the internet. it worked once then it stopped working. i refresh 'google.com' and it just stays stuck at like 10% of the status bar then says that the webpage is not available...

Yes it is.
Menu> Settings> More> Portable hotspot & tethering
Here you can either choose to set your phone up as a WiFi hotspot so your PC can connect wirelessly to your phone and use it’s 3G for internet connection.
Or you can use USB tethering to achieve the same internet connection but using a cable instead of WiFi. Personally I’ve had more success with this one, as I have found the WiFi Hotspot function to be very hit-and-miss.
You may find that after prolonged inactivity on the connection, it stops working and you have to stop and then re-start USB tethering for it to work. Keep the data flowing though and it seems to work just fine. Obviously take into account your 3G data plan. If you are on a unlimited plan then you are laughing.
Don’t shut your phone in a door!

Lol not teathering via mobile network I'm talking about a pc WiFi dongle adapter which I use on my pc to connect to my home boardband so I can receive full speed connection I'l post a link when I get home with a screenshot so you understand a little better thanks anyway

ok this is what im trying to do but not sure if its possible see screenshot

Answer is No. Android does not allow ad-hoc connections.
HTC does allow you to use internet through usb connection but cant share that out over wifi.
Why not just connect ps3 directly to the router?

Woah! Yeah definitely misinterpreted what you meant!
Looks like you need to fish out your ethernet cable!

Usb thether to wifi

Hey everyone, I was just wondering if there's a way to take the Internet connection from a PC via usb, and then make a wifi Hotspot so I could share that connection to tablet, laptop, etc.
Thanks in advance!
