Has anyone got it working?
It works out-of-box on my Ubuntu, but it doesn't work at all on Mac OS 10.6.
I read somewhere that Mac doesn't have "usb ethernet" driver, so I googled one out and installed it (Zaurus driver), but no luck.
Forgot to mention - I don't want to use PDAnet or other 3rd party solution.
Would be perfect to just get a working USB ethernet driver for Mac OS.
I'd also be interested in this.
I currently use PDA net but it's not perfect. I've spent hours trying to work out how to get it going but with no luck.
Still no go. Found g_ether drivers, but they are for 10.5 only.
I'm quite disappointed with mac at this point
The good news is Froyo will have internet sharing through wifi, which should let us, mac users, fully enjoy tethering without rooting

Has anyone got this to work.
I spent the last 8 days trying to figure out what was wrong with this, only to find out that vista cannot (by default) act as a RDP host.
well after i found that out i was RDP'ing to my home computer in as little as 5 minutes. I can connect to my home PC from my laptop or anyother computer using my external IP or my Dyndns name. Works awesome.
Now i am getting a new error on my TP2 when i try to connect.
the error reads
"The connection was ended because of a network error.
Please try connecting to the remote computer again."

I installed a "hack" as it were to give my Vista home premium machine the ability to become a RDP Host instead of just a client and i am wondering if maybe that this fix was not designed to allow this kind of connection
the fix turned on terminal services for RDP and set the port 3389 and said it was listening.
so i was wondering if anyone else using Vista Home (premium or basic only not the others) has got this to work on their TP2
Need some help please. i have a question on yahoo answers microsoft answers, ppcgeeks, and 2 other forums. and i am not getting anywhere...

I'm using Vista Ultimate so the hack to make remote desktop work was probably different than what you've done, but if you have it working from another location/device there is no reason remote desktop should not work from your TP2. I have mine working just fine. I connect to servername:443 (the port I am redirecting traffic to). There are multiple steps involved in this since you need to forward the traffic from your router to your PC if you are connecting from outside your LAN.
i have gone through a bunch of steps.
i have my ports forwarded and all that..
like you say... if i can connect from my laptop... there is NOOO reason i shouldnt be able to connect from my TP2.
I connect through either my external IP or my DYNDNS from my latop..
(Lan IP works too) But when i type either in my computer name nothing works
i have tried adding :3389 to the end of both and i have tried my user name and password and i have tried it withought. i have tried it with my routers domain name and without. i have tried everything i can think of..
simply there is no reason that this shouldnt work if i can connect from other computers... there is even pictures on PPCGeeks of people having it up and running. so its possible im just missing something.
it worked straight for me. With stuff like this it helps to break it up into it's component steps:
can you get it to work on another PC networked
can you get it to work on another device (PC) remotely and through the firwall?
Then you are left with TP2 issues if it doesn't work when the previous steps do.
This may not be much help as it seems that you know what you're doing
PS it worked for me straight away 'cos I was already using RDP on the PC with other devices
havent used vista home, afterall if your 'hacking' it for remote desktop........
but you have to forward port 3359 i believe it is on your router, to your pc's static ip. You HAVE to set a password if you havent done so already. It works rather well actually once connected.

It´s almost the same process for Vista
bajunadustin, were you able to fix the problem? Because I am having the same exact problem myself right now.
I have tried various Android releases for Kaiser and have been unable to get tethering to work with any of them. I have tried both Barnacle (Wifi), Android Wifi-Tether (Wifi and BT), and the native Android USB tethering (via Settings) with no luck. I haven't tried PDANet because it appears to require software be installed on the PC, which I'd prefer to avoid. Has anyone else had luck getting tethering to work in Android on a Kaiser? If so, please share details. This is the only feature I really miss from Windows Mobile, but it is a big one.
Hi, I have azilink (USB) working but haven't used it extensively. It does requires OpenVPN to be installed on the computer side but they are both free.
Would love to see Wifi tether working though Not sure why it doesn't work. Last I looked into it seemed to be some problem with sudo and root permission.
Hi everyone!
I'm having kind of a special problem.
I'm an electro acoustic musician and finds the Desire a lot of fun.
My new project is to use its accelerometer etc and for that I need to connect it to my Mac running OSX 10.6.5.
The issue I'm having is that my network (campus ish) won't allow me to open any ports. I don't think it's a good idea to hack it, so my next idea is to create a network between my Mac and my Desire. This network won't have access to the internet.
It also has to be via Wifi since the app I'm using only allows communication through wifi and my java skills aren't good enough to edit the apk.
I therefore run Oxygen 1.0 (GREAT rom btw) which is supposed to accept ad-hoc, and my computers own network does show up when i browse it in my phone.
The problem is that it dosn't connect since it isn't given an ip. I imagine there has to be a solution to this and I'm just not seeing it. I'm also thinking it could be an OSX issue and not really a question for this forum, but I'm pretty sure it should be possible to just make the phone not requesting an internet ip.
I've tried to set a static IP but this won't work ether.
Does anyone have a clue on how to do? I'm quite desperate really. Been searching for a solution online for quite some time and I haven't found the right one. Probably because most people using ad-hoc want it's phone to connect to the internet and therefore not having my kind of trouble. Unfortunately I have no way of connecting my computer to the router with wire since the router is about 400 meters away. Once of corse, but i really need a wireless solution in the long run.
Thanks!

Can anyone confirm Ad-hoc support? I know Honeycomb supports ad-hoc connections right out of the box (well at least I know the TF tablet does) so I was hoping that ICS supports connecting to an ad-hoc wifi connection. I'm not talking about tethering a device to the GN, I'm talking about reverse tethering. At work it's a cell black hole. Doesn't matter what provider you have, the signal is crap. I have Cyanogen on my OG Droid and it allows me to connect to the ad-hoc wifi connection I've set up on my laptop to give the droid some form of data connection while I'm at work.
I still want the phone regardless of whether or not it supports ad-hoc as I'm sure in due time it'll be easy enough to implement with a custom rom. It would just be nice to know if it'll support it when ever Verizon gets around to releasing it.
i ve flashed my SGS i9000 with ICS port rom , and i ve notice that there are no ad-joc support, thats really a big pity , i ve tried to find an application in the market to allow me to connect via ad-hoc networks , but i found nothing ... i hope there will be solousion soon time
Yeah, from what it looks like in the bug tracker, I believe the only reason why the Asus TF has Ad-Hoc support is because Asus enabled it themselves, not Google. I wish Google would take their heads out of their you know where and make this simple change. It's not like they need to research how to fix it since all the research has already been done.
Can't answer your question, but if you're running Windows 7, have you tried Connectify to make your laptop a hotspot? It's free and I hear it works pretty well.
Also, maybe there is a ROM out there that support the Bluetooth PAN profile (Android 2.3 doesn't, maybe ICS already does?), so you can just connect the phone to your laptop using that link, no wifi needed, less battery usage since it's bluetooth, and I believe that's what the PAN profile is intended to be used for anyway.
not working here
i tried editing tiwlan but did not find that config file
haven't found any other tutorials concerning adhoc on Android 4.0
btw it is issue number 82 on Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project (not allowed to post outside links for me)
Updated my phone to Android 4.0.2 and still no ad-hoc...
Is there an application that can do it?

I wish we had Win 7 at work. Sadly we're still running XP so connectify is a no go. I've also heard it works pretty well but sadly I can't even test it out.
I haven't tried Bluetooth PAN yet with the GN but I believe the bluetooth stack on my laptop is also crippled. I tried doing the same with my tablet (which I know allows bluetooth PAN) and the laptop wouldn't setup a proper PAN. Seems like we're SOL regarding Ad-hoc until someone releases a hack for it or a ROM comes out.
Any progress?
I've got the same problem... Poor reception at work, and running XP.
(Although, I've also got a Linux machine, and tried sticking an USB wifi adapter in it, but the stock driver doesn't support Master Mode on it. Maybe I should just get myself a new USB wifi adapter that's properly supported by Linux? Any recommendations?)

I haven't heard of anything yet. It doesn't look like any of the ROMs have it yet either.
I'm kinda lucky though, I was recently transferred in my company and I'm now located in a building where I get a decent 4G signal all day. Also my new laptop is Win 7. I did play around with connectify a bit. It works but not extremely well for me. I wind up losing connection quite often. I did read though that it's possibly something to do with AV or Firewall, and knowing my company, that's probably it.

I have Winxp at work also on my laptop and connectify works with my Asus transformer. But for the galaxy nexus it doesn't recognize the adhoc network during wifi scan. Need a new supplicant file installed.
try this http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/releases/view/36035
First of all, I would like to thank all the developers on the site for some outstanding work. I have been trying out some of the great ROM's found here and I would just like to thank all you guys for all the hard work put into your Rom's. I am really appreciative of all the great information found here.
I have an issue I have been working on for a bit, and I was wondering if I can get some of you to comment or try to figure this one out.
At my office, we have a RV-120w Cisco firewall/router. We have a small office, and this unit has worked great in securing my server, but allowing some of my Project Manager's to remote in via IPsec. The remote VPN works great from desktop to router. We connect to the router, and then RD to the workstation.
The issue I have, is I cannot get an Android device to connect via IPsec. I can see the unit talking to the router (from the log), but the connection times out stating "Could not find a configuration".
I have tried the Cisco boards and have gotten no where. If any of you have an idea I could try, I would greatly appreacite it.
Hey,
are you making sure everything is registered right on both sides? & it might be a rom glitch to. Try flashing a differnt rom making sure you have all the right info and try again. and If that doesnt do it Idk man Im sorry :/
Stevo
L2PT only with IPsec is supported.
So you should be running IPsec and L2PT with the VPN. Probably should look into the OpenVPN installers for the android phones (i can help with that).
But my experience is that our android phones are finicky with the protocols you use.
Cisco again........
I regualrly visit forums and blogs for some VPN news, what i see the most are people having issues with vpn settings in general and specially cisco, cisco vpn routers have been rocket science to learn and use efficiently,
