I have a question for everyone,
I just found out our xperia has a wifi transfer option and it works great.
it's under xperia connectivity, then usb connectivity. leave the usb connected and set up wifi settings.
here's my question, is there a way to add this to a shortcut or widget so we dont have to go through the menu to connect to other computers?
Thanks

Hi
Is it possible to share my pc internet connection to my desire via cable or bluetooth?
I know it's possible with a app called connectify on my pc, but i don't want to have a visible WiFi connection running.
Any ideas?
As far as I know, no.
Make no sense to hide the SSID. Everybody how can wrote his own nam can find the ssid easyli.
I know, thats why I want to use USB cable or Bluetooth..
Yes you can, go to connectify.me and download the app for pc, you can use your computers internet as a hotspot.
this worked great for me also
Hello everyone!
My phone: AT&T Tilt 2 running most recent Simplicity rom
I hope someone can help me figure this out. Essentially I was wondering if it is possible to to use the "Wi-Fi Router" app in the comm manager to create a wifi hot spot using the internet connection from connecting my phone to my PC via USB and activesync.
Sorry if thats confusing, I'll map it out:
Cable modem----Ethernet on Desktop---Activesync---connects to my Tilt 2 via USB---Wifi Router App using the connection from activesync
When I run the Wifi Router app I can only choose from ATT ISP GPRS and Media Net as the internet connection source, but I want to know if its possible to just use the internet connection from being directly connected to my PC in order to create the hotspot.
I would just use a router but it broke and I don't know when I'll get another one. Thanks!
Hi there,
I still new to use arc and android, just would like to check with all experts, I am trying to use the tethering feature and connect my arc with pc companion, but once I enable the tethering feature and the connection between arc and computer is disconnected.
Is it really like this? normal?
use tethering for internet connection since I have no broadband at home. Think of connect both to update software from original SE website....
Kindly advice.
Don't use pc companion, but instead change your device to Mass Storage mode and use the native Android USB Tether. You can find this option in Settings, Wireless networks, Tethering and Portable hotspot, Enable USB Tethering. I've been using it without a hassle since I got my arc.
PS: there's a Q&A section right under this one.
caN I USE arc to access my broadband connection of my computer via usb cable? IF YES THEN PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW TO CONNECT?
yes, i am using the tethering which u mentioned above to go internet at home since no broadband.
recently i think of upgrade my arc to 2.3.3 using pc companion.
but i encounter a issue that i have connected pc n arc using pc companion, when i want to update phone, i enable the tethering function, then the pc disconnected with my arc ord, how to solve? thks for advice!
Hi,
I've been wondering if it is possible to be connected to my home router with my Arc while the portable hotspot option is turned on so that the other device can connect on the internet using Arc.

I don't believe this is possible, you're either in hotspot mode or normal wifi mode.
Thought so, but still, too bad.

Hello everybody.
I have a strange problem regarding the Nexus 5x with wifi tethering/access point mode.
I can turn on wifi hotspot by:
settings --> more --> Tethering & portable hotspot --> Portable wifi hotspot enable the slider.
After that I can disable it with the quick access panel.
However I cannot enable it by the quick access panel. This also prevents apps like tasker to automate this setting.
I would like to have hotspot turned on when I enter my car (bluetooth connected)
I live in the netherlands and have a Vodafone account.
Many thanks for your input.
