How to setup a computer to work with that app?
I'm very basic about WiFi things.
Help me.

Install the app on your phone, when you open it, it will set itself up and give you an HTTP:// address to put in your browser. Then you have access to your SD card through your web browser

+1 on that app. Using it, too. Easy as can be.

Please Explain More.
It does not setup itself.

Connect to your wifi network. Run app. In your browser type the adress given by the app. done.

How to setup a WiFI Network on my computer?
I'm using XP.

Google.
2. You do not connect directly to your PC, the app uses a WiFI AP (your router).
So PC & phone connected to the router, and it's done.

Also make sure your phone is connected to your wifi

One Doubt:
is Internet Connection need to setup a WiFi Network on computer?

No. Not needed.

One times all Worked well.
Then i connected for second time,It saying "Obtainig Ip Address."
What problem?
First i connected using this settings.
Ad-Hoc
Frequency Band:Forgot.
Ch:10
Frequency Band what should i use?
802.11g
or
802.11b

hi, use 802.11b, i think desire'wifi can't support 802.11g

Supports b/g. Patch and custom kernel needed for n.

Download this app from Market: websharing.

Thanks to all.
Now all working well.
Using File Expert(free version).

Hi. The best one. U can even use cfis to mount the file sharing from your comp. and access it through /mnt/cifs.

Search Google for the Connectify application and it will allow you to achieve the same thing.

Thank you but I can't use wireless (security breach... @work -_-) I need a usb stuff.
Thank you
Sounds Intresting,
What you asking for if i am correct is an application that would provide your Phone with an Internet Connection via a USB from your PC
(and your PC having the internet connection)
Exactly what I need...
Like Microsoft ActiveSync provide for WM phones
What you are wanting is reverse tethering.
You could maybe try connecting to the desire to an ad-hoc wi-fi network, check this link:

You will need to root the phone, install iwconfig from the wifi-tether application, disable wifi, reload the kernel module, set parameters with iwconfig and ifconfig / dhcp and that should work.

How to connect internet through "PC INTERNET" with my phone?

Normally as you all know that , we can connect internet via phone's internet. It's called teethering.
The thing that i want is different. I want to learn how can i connect internet from mobile with the connection of my PC ?
Because sometimes , in some places there is no wireless connectin, only ethernet connection. So i want to use in this time.
I will appriciate for your comments
Search Google for an application called "Connectify" it will let you achieve what you want (i.e. reverse tethering).

[Q] Sharing internet via HTC Desire?

Hello!
I have installed RCMix HD rom, with new Sense, and i have option for Internet Pass-Through. I am wondering, if it is possible, to use on phone internet connection from PC via Internet Pass-Through, and in settings turn on Portable WiFi Hotspot, that will let me to connect to internet on another laptop? I tried this, but i doesn't have internet on laptop...
And, is this possible anyway?
The way the internet sharing works with the Desire is that it acts like a modem which then shares the internet with a PC. You can't do it the other way around, sharing internet from your PC to your phone, just phone to PC.
You can use your computers internet via internet pass through, I know because I've tried it, but you can't use the computer internet for hotspot, I tried that too

@damo : bro can u tell me how u did it???m using windows 7 but cant seem to get it work on the phone....everything is getting connected but no show on the phone....
is there any particular setting u need to do???
as a thought - what about if you made an adhoc connection from laptop and shared internet with that connection...?
just a thought- completely untested..
just remember when I had a machine set up with a crossover and shared wifi from laptop to PC and wondered if you could do something similar with an adhoc wifi connection...
You can't share the internet connection used from a pass through connection. The reason is that it uses the same framework for both pass through connections and Portable Hotspot. Would be cool if it could be done, but with Windows XP and above you setup an AdHoc Wifi connection which will allow you to connect one device and share and internet connection.

[Q] Wireless Tethering

Can I connect to a wireless point on my phone and the tether the connection to pc?
As if im using a wireless card for my computer?
Thanks in advance

You want to connect to a WLAN with your desire and tether the connection to the pc? Why, or am I wrong?
You can connect to your normal mobile internet (desire) and use the wireless hot spot (depends on the rom, but I only saw roms that are able to do that)
That can be done. Maybe he wants to tether his 3G connection to his PC. Either way, WiFi or 3G, it can be done. Why would one want to do something like that (WiFi2PC) is whole another ball game...
I don't have a wireless card in my pc, so I wonderd if I could use my desire as an alternative?
Thanks in advance

Yes this works as I used to use my phone as a wireless card.
Turn off 3g, connect to WiFi and then connection your phone to your pc. Im on windows 7 and it automatically worked.
There's the option to use usb tethering (in CM -> Options - Wireless & networks - Tethering & portable hotspot - USB tethering)
maybe this will help you
I can confirm that you can connect your Desire to a WiFi network and then tether to a PC via USB.
It saved my ass when I updated my netbook's BIOS and it decided to blacklist my WLAN card. :O

[Q] Wifi File Transfer can't connect Galaxy Nexus and Computer

Hi All,
Having a little issue with the app called "Wifi File Transfer". As we all know that GNex can't do UMS. Alternative I see on XDA forum is use wifi transfer program, and some recommended using Wifi File Transfer.
Issue is, it seems that my GNex can't connect properly. I typed "192.168.1.x:1234" into the browser, and it failed to connect. Then I checked the IP address (eg. 192.168.1.27), and try to ping the GNex's IP from a PC, it can't locate...
Do any of you have this issue? Does the GNex's LAN IP need to be ping-able (not sure if this is a word but u get the idea) for Wifi File Transfer to work?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thx in advance!
Maybe a stupid question but, your phone and computer are on the same network right? The app works fine for me.

personally i prefere samba (https://market.android.com/details?id=com.funkyfresh.samba) it allows you to add your phone as a network drive on windows so you can xfer files over wifi like its a drive on your computer..
Found the culprit... its my FIOS router. After restarting the router, Wifi File Transfer works just fine.
