As far as I know you can't. :-(

please help...

i have the following... one desktop PC with a internet connectio.... one hermes with WM6.0.... and one laptop with wireless card....
i wanna do the following.... connect to the internet on the laptop using the desktop's connection through the wireless connection between the hermes and the laptop... assuming that the hermes is conected to the desktop through actisync....
i hope i was clear enough... other solution i do not need... the thing is that i nees wireless connection.... the wired one betweeen desktop and laptop it's simple but it's not what i want....
thanks....
P.S. don't shoot me for asking this...
Just to get things straight.
You want your Hermes to act as a wireless access point from the PC. So that your laptop can use the interent through your main PC.
Cheers
search for Schaps Advanced Config 1.1 theres an option in the program to make your Hermes and access point.
i think i found what you said... but the thing is... i think... that the option you said activates the ICS over Wi-Fi... internet from the phone's operator
i tried to make a little drawing....

Hermes as a Wireless access point???

Hello everyone can anyone tell me of some program which can turn my hermes into a wirless access point , i know there is a program called "WMWifiRouter" but it can only use gprs for internet access and here in our country gprs is still much expensive . I would like to have a program which can use the usb connection from my pc as a internet source .why do i need it?....... because i want to connect my few other devices such as nintendo ds to internet through it .plz plz plz can anyone help. Thanks in advance and one more thing thanks to all the great cheifs here who do wonderfull job for us specially the legendary Schaps, faria and Shamanix.anyways thanks again.

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.

Possible to share pc internett connection?

Hi
Is it possible to share my pc internet connection to my desire via cable or bluetooth?
I know it's possible with a app called connectify on my pc, but i don't want to have a visible WiFi connection running.
Any ideas?
As far as I know, no.
Make no sense to hide the SSID. Everybody how can wrote his own nam can find the ssid easyli.
I know, thats why I want to use USB cable or Bluetooth..
Yes you can, go to connectify.me and download the app for pc, you can use your computers internet as a hotspot.
this worked great for me also

[Q] Issue with sharing internet using WiFi hotspot

Hi there. Have got this issue with sharing internet on my Note 2 when I switch on the WiFi hotspot. I can switch on the Hotspot, and I can get other devices (phones, my laptop) to connect to it as well. But none of the devices can access the internet.
I have been using my other phone, an HTC Incredible S, without any issues. But the same does not seem to work with my Note 2. It worked fine when I used it a few weeks ago, though. And I don't remember making any changes. It is stock, and I have added an extra SD card which is about the only new thing in the phone.
EDIT: Ok, here is an update: Bluetooth tethering does not work either. However, I have noticed that I can share the internet if it is not 3G. I don't seem to have any problems sharing a net connection I get from another wifi source.. Makes sense?
Thanks folks!

Hello there!
I think you have a different issue here In fact, quite the opposite! I was unable to share my 3G connection with bluetooth/wifi tethering options. I did a factory reset, and it is all fine now.
About the problem you are facing: Did you try this on a different computer?

Question Slow internet sharing

Hi all,
Are you experiencing slow connections with your Pixel 6's internet sharing ?
I tried in wpa2 and wpa2/wp3 I have the same problem. Same thing if I share with a USB cable. I didn't have this slow problem with my Pixel 5. Anyone have an idea ? (I have already updated my wifi drivers on my PC)
Thats sound like something potentially subjective in nature ("slow" could mean: router problem, site problem, maybe a VPN or whatever), did you do side-by-side speedtests with your old phone to determine if there is an actual difference?
Also do I understand you correctly, that you share your phones Internet via usb to a PC? I didn't knew that was even possible, that's cool. Does that mean you have some sort of USB to LAN adapter?
But why not get an oldschool WLAN usb dongle? Having a thirdparty in the middle is never good for latency.

You can share internet including via mobile data with your PC by USB cable (USB tethering). No USB->ethernet adapter needed. I used to do it a ton with my first Android 11 years ago because I didn't have home internet at the time and I had unlimited (3G) data, and hardly any money.
No VPN, no proxy, it's a direct connection. But I solved the problem by turning the mobile data off and on. There's a topic on Reddit. I hope Google will fix this bug soon !
Bye guys !
Edit : Is working only with USB cable, not in hotspot !
