I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure you can only share 3G data, not wifi from a separate router

Can't do it, but you can buy a cheap wifi repeater for under $50 US that solves your problem.

This would only be possible if the Play had 2 Wifi Adapters inside it.

[Q] WiFi Hotspot when connected via WiFi

So after finding a cheap(er) was of getting mobile internet whilst I am roaming in Europe this summer, my plan is to use my Desire as a mobile hot spot and connect other phones and laptops via it as needed.
I have tested this and it works fine.
But I also have an iPass client installed on my phone which is great for hotel wifi etc but I was wondering if there was any way to make the phone act as a wifi hotspot even when it is using wifi itself to connect to the internet?
Thanks
Dun think so. Possibly there is an app on the market that does it. I do know that wifi will get disabled when u activate hotspot though. Tried routing my wifi through my phone. Doesn't work

No. The hardware is either doing one thing or the other...can't do both. Unless you can find a phone with more than one Wifi chip in it.

[Q] Internet pass through

Does anyone know if it's possible to use this when using your phone as a WIFI hotspot, or does the hotspot only use your data connection? Cheers
I'm not sure what you're asking, but the Wifi hotspot option only allows you to share your phone's 3g connection with wireless enabled devices. If you're on Orange they've probably blocked it by default so you need to configure it.

He is asking if he can forward the Internet connection from the PC using a USB cable (Internet Passthrough mode) and further pass it to other devices using the WiFi hotspot feature IN THE SAME TIME

Yeah, that's what I want to do. Picked up an iPad 2 on Friday, but don't have WIFI at work. Was hoping to share my PCs internet connection instead of using my data.
I'm in the same boat. No wifi at work and would like to share my pc's interenet through the phone's as a wifi hotspot. Theoritically this should be possible. Any third party softwares which allow this?
Hmm, cant test it now due to some reasons but it's possible to use your phone as a wifi card.
For example connect your phone to wifi and activate usb tethering. Now your on the wifi nework with your pc.
I think that yours should be possible too

I'm trying to do the opposite, not usb tethering, rather internet passthrough. Basically I want to use the phone as a wifi router (but not using mobile network as the source of net).

Unfortunately , I guess , this couldn't be possible , because when HTC Desire HD device is connected via " Internet pass through " , the internet connection is neither 3G , nor WIFI . I can't be a hundred percent sure that this is right , but as far as you know there are some GAMELOFT games , which require downloaded CACHE/DATA for playing them . This downloading could be possible , when your device has been connected to Internet , no matter 3G/4G or WIFI .
Once I tried via " Internet pass through " to download this DATA/CACHE files ,but there appeared a notification saying Im neither 3G , nor WIFI connected . So I couldn't succeed in downloading the files . ( I've tried many games , yet has never managed to download DATA/CACHE game files via "Internet pass through" )
My opinion is that WIFI-HOTSPOT can be activated only when you are connected via 3G/4G/WIFI network . But anytime you want , you could try if it is possible via "Internet pass through" be established a WIFI-HOTSPOT
: ))
Create a txt file "qaWifiOnlyMode.txt" and inside write FALSE , put in the root of your sd ... and the game will ask your permission to use carrier network , if internet pass through are active will use the USB connection

Do you mean phone to phone (no hotspot or router) via wifi? Or do you you want to connect to a wifi hotspot and use that internet to be able to make calls?
I always use skype and its free.
But i don't understand what you talking about.
your friends are 200miles away but just using the wifi direct connect without internet connection?
i don't think wifi can connect about 10~30meter

i know the reach of wifi is more than bluetooth,
thare is a app for bluetooth in what I am looking for
it call blue talkie by Raffaele Ragni
but the problem is bluetooth has a reach of max in 10 meter
and wifi can do more
installing a router in the car is also no problem
Without internet you are out of luck I'm thinking. Why not do it old school and get a set of walkie talkies?

[Q] How to allow mobile data when connected to no-internet wifi network?

Hello.
At work we have wifi network that has no interent, I use that network to transfer files from phone to computer, however whenever I connect to that network my phone looses interent connection too, because wifi become the only active network.
Is there a way allow 3g/4g network while connected to wifi?
Thank you.
P.S.
Using rooted stock rom.
Nope. One or the other

Sorry, but I can't believe that.
On Windows, for example, you can specify order, priority, of the adapters at which system will use to connect to the interent. It has to be something similar in Linux/Android...
