Use Connectify app for windows

OP connectify doesn't works, I have tried it already. Try android reverse tethering through usb cable.
Type this in cmd with administrative privilege
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Test key=<yourpassword>
Go to network and sharing center and share internet with wireless connection 2
For starting the hotspot type this code
netsh wlan start hostednetwork

Try to use third party tethering application..
make sure you have mobile data activated
mine works with a minimum speed of 512 kbps..might be stronger in other locations
I try 3rd party app but same prob.. also other phone can connect to my wifi hotspot but cant connect to internet..

I'e been trying to get reverse tether working on the our phones and i've tried a bunch of different apps on the market, and searched around but i cannot seem to get it working.
Has anyone have any luck on getting reverse tether working via or getting the S2 to connect to ad-hoc wifi networks?
take care
edit:
forgot to add that i'm running AOKP jellybean build 1 which i'd like to add is an awesome rom
What the hell is reverse tether?
Either you use your phone as a hotspot or your phone connects to a router.
there are software for the PC to make your PC / Laptop WiFi act as a relay, so you can get internet via your laptop WiFi hot spot

He's talking about having your phone plugged into your computer and getting the internet that your computer is using to function as the internet on your device.
my windows mobile phone did this by default. It's pretty handy when you only have an Ethernet device with no router.

I believe there was an app on the market which allowed this to happen.
But OP have you tried bridging your internet connection to your wireless card on your computer then creating an ad-hoc network and connecting your phone to that? If set up properly it should work. That is if your computer has wireless nic.

thanks for the replies.
I'm on a linux based computer so those windows programs will not work.
I've tried the ad hoc method however, the phone doesn't seem to see the ad hoc.
I've read in few places that android does not support connecting to ad hoc but then i've also read that aokp does support so i'm kinda confused

There is a tweak you have to do to get android to recognize the ad hoc network. I'll try to search for it.

I mean scan ad-hoc network hotspots
Like laptop or portable wifi hotspot in phones . If you try to scan or connect to them, the phone doesnt show them
It just scan for infrastructure access points.(like wifi modems or routers)

Ok first thing first, before you try portable hotspot was your grand connected already to the internet? If so how were you connected? I ask this because there are some Internet Providers that do not allow wifi tethering. I hope they allow it on yours.

It should work flawlessly if you had done everything right. Hope you are able to connect the device to PC and is it showing Limited/No connectivity on PC? Check your internet connection works on phone while tethering is active.

@DMJoh, I think there is a solution for not accessing internet. Open Cmd and type ipconfig /release and then type ipconfig /renew and problem will be solved.
@xyp3r try it and see if it solve your problem...
