I just recently rooted my phone and wanted to know if there was anyway to add more functionality in the way of WiFi connections.
I was extremely disappointed when I got to university this year and the phone wouldn't work on the 802.1x WiFi network we use, where as my iPod worked flawlessly.
It also didn't seem to work on an ad hoc network I tried to setup to use the phone as a remote control.
I'm currently running the latetest Fresh rom but it doesn't seem to add these capabilities, though I could be wrong. Does anyone know a way to add them?
Thanks
i have been doing some searching within in the forums and on google with no avail... My Evo (along with many others from what i researched) has the inability to see adhoc networks even though it can "see" the network with the the wifi analyzer app. i thought it was an android thing but my friend was able to connect to my adhoc network with his DX. is there a workout around that maybe i am overlooking so my phone can see and connect to an ad-hoc network? i am running ava-froyoZ1
Does anyone have the same problem?

Is your wifi buggy? I don't have any problems connecting to any network, unless its open but is password protected.
I am assuming not... I can connect to every WiFi network except for an ad-hoc. My phone WiFi settings won't even see the ad-hoc network. When I use the WiFi analyzer though it can be seen.

Had the same problem here on stock, I think CM does address this, but I already switched to a real router before I upgraded
I don't think the person that responded knows what an ad hoc network is
True Indeed

Is there a way how to start 3g wifi hotspot on my defy running CM7?
download 'wireless tether' from market, works like a charm
it does not support infrastructure mode!
isn't working...
Hi there
I'm using nightly 110722 CM7 and almost everything is working flawless... I just couldn't found the wireless tether that should be available.
So my question is, and I'm sorry if it's a dumb one, the "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot" option isn't available for Defy, or this is a "feature" of my Defy with green lens?
On the stock rom I remember that was a 3G Hotspot app, but it never worked.
I had installed Wireless Tether and gave to it root permissions, the software tells me that it is working, but nobody can see or connect to my network.
Thanks.
Use "Barnacle Wifi Tether".
Tested and works fine(Ad hoc).

I had to use another custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1156855) to make the the hotspot (infrastructure mode) working and I'm very happy with it.

Hello Theles!
To fix your hotspot app you have to set your apn settings correctly.
You can try APN Brasil (https://market.android.com/details?id=br.com.droidbrasil.apnbrasil&feature=search_result).
Then you have to set this parameter on the APN you're using:
APN Type: default,dun
I use wireless tethering from the market...ad hoc is fine for me since i just wanted to share for my ipad2 wifi
Hi
This is an old topic, I know. But now, the CM7 is offering Wireless and USB tether natively, under Wireless Network configurations.
I'm using the Nightly build 110822-1650 by Jordan and it's working like a charm, and, in infrastructure mode with WPA2, etc...
Thanks guys.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get wifi tethering working using an infrastructure system on the arc S? i have a device that i could do with connecting to it, but it doesnt connect to ad-hoc.
I have rooted my D710 and installed hotspot hack as well as wifi tether for root users from the google play. Both are working fine but the hotspot hack only provides WPA2 encription and wifi-tethering is either WPA2 or ad-hoc. Unfortunately, None of these encription wifi method is compatible with one of my devices. I know that device is a pretty old one but I am currently trying to put it on-line.
Do you know any tethering APP which provides WEP encription?
Thanks!
