Right now im not connecting to my internet connection using our old w-lan routr so the only connection i can create for my phone is an Ad Hoc connection straight from my pc.
My phone can not find it, tho and i am left clueless how to fix this.
Does anyone have an idea what i could do to make my phone connect to an Ad Hoc Connection?

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.
I have been trying to connect my epic 4G to my laptop through ad hoc connection. I am on CM9 Beta3 and Windows 7 Ultimate. My Epic can detect the ad hoc connection created, but the connection only last for less than 1 second, then stuck in "obtaining IP Address..." while the laptop fails to gain network access (although already "connected").
Tried the WPA2 and WEP but fails.
Does anyone solved this issue?
I would like to use Splashtop using the ad hoc as the local network...
Nevermind...
I use COnnectify instead. Now I can operate my laptop from my Epic...

make sure you have encryption enabled in your settings. otherwise, someone will piggyback off of your connection.
Hi guys,
I am currently online with my computer wich has a 3G Stick/Modem attached to it. (= No WiFi router around I could use)
What I want to do is to somehow connect my DHD to the computer so I could access the internet via the 3G Stick from my phone while the modem is still pluged in to the computer.
I tried creating an Ad-Hoc network but for some reason, my phone wont connect to it, its always stuck on "Authentication" or "Retrieving IP-Adress".
Is there a way I could manage the whole thing by connecting the Phone via a USB-Cable?
When you plug phone into pc there should be an internet pass through option. I know the inspire can do it and I'm pretty sure the dhd is the same.
i dont know what os you have but i can create a wifi network using my macs ethernet port and connect to it. i know this can be done on linux too
Ad hoc network is probably not authenticating because the phone is not being assigned an ip address... (not a networking expert... just telling you what ive noticed with most devices) creating a network bridge between your usb 3g dongle and your wifi might help... not a surefire thing but its worth a shot.
.. if u are using a stock rom or one with sense then theres the internet pass through option which requires htc sync.

Hey guys...i'm facing a big problem.I want to share my internet connection from my laptop to my Wave 2. My friend Google told me something about ad hoc connection. I made that ad hoc connection, my Wave 2 connects to my Wifi network but does not have any internet....I need help. Maybe someone from this forum can help. On my laptop i have Win 7 and i want to share my internet connection because i don't have a WIFI router (yet )
No need for help anymore....i found a way to share internet connection from my laptop to may wave....it's called Connectify for those who want it
connectify hotspot
but search for the full version, that works better.
Does somebody managed to connect to ad hoc wifis in 4.3? I have only wired connection and I want to share it through my computer, but the phone doesn't find anything.:silly:
nothing? really?
