As it states in the title the LG Bridge and Support Tools will not work on my main PC at home, which is connected directly to the router via a network cable. LG Bridge says there is no network connection, and Support tool will not install saying no connection.
TIA

please help ... I've just managed to establish a wireless local network between the xdaExec and a Vaio laptop through their WiFi adaptors (the laptop is connected to a fast broadband line through ethernet).
All I want is to be able to surf the Net on the xdaexec from another room of my flat (I don't own a wireless router and the connection between the laptop and the xda is in the "ad-hoc" mode).
At the moment I can't open any websites from the xda ... any ideas ??... (I attach the relevant screenshot) Do I need to go out and buy a wireless router ?? (there must be a way to do it without one I hope...)
you could try (assuming the Vaio is winXP) using terminal services to connect to your laptop then surf the net on that via the XDA.
You need to enable remote access on the laptop, (right click my computer go to properties, click remote tab and tick the box) set up a username and password for your account on the laptop.
Then open Terminal services on the XDA and enter the Local IP address of the laptop.
This isn't really the correct way of browsing with your XDA but it is an alternative, and cool when you show people how you can control your laptop from your phone!!
HTH
if using winXP:
bridge your ethernet and wifi connections using network connections and make sure that the "allow people to connect throught this connection" (or something like that) box is ticked
not winXP:
no idea sorry
oh damn why don't u simly buy a wlan router? its not that expensive... and its easier and more secure too.
Normally as you all know that , we can connect internet via phone's internet. It's called teethering.
The thing that i want is different. I want to learn how can i connect internet from mobile with the connection of my PC ?
Because sometimes , in some places there is no wireless connectin, only ethernet connection. So i want to use in this time.
I will appriciate for your comments
Search Google for an application called "Connectify" it will let you achieve what you want (i.e. reverse tethering).

I've been searchin for the same thing, i dont have a wireless router for home adsl. is there anyway to connect to the net with my desire via usb connection to pc..? ive got XP on my PC and connectivity on runs on Win7
I've just bought a defy, but i can't get tethering to work. When i select tethering in the options and connect to my pc i cannot connec to the internet as i cannot find the connection. On m old sony ericcson phone this could be done via the sony ericcson software but so far i have been unable to find anything like that for the defy.
I have a laptop with windows xp and a desktop with windows7.
what exacly are you trying.?
connecting the internet from your pc by your phone, or from your phone by pc.?
wifi tehering are actualy used to connect your pc/notebook to internet using the 3G Internet-Connection from the phone.
-> http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
the other way is, to create a adhoc network (share internet-connection) on your pc.

hope it helps.
I use easytether, free from the market, to connect my debian laptop to the internet with no problems.

What im trying to do is connect my phone to a P.C and then use the Defy's 3G internet connection on my P.C.
Theres an option in the phones settings labelled as Internet tethering, this says "Share your phones Internet connection over USB & Bluetooth."
When ticked it says something about choosing your phone from a list of network services in your computers network settings.
and that is as far as i can get.
Does the computer in question have wi-fi?
Because, if so, the mobile hotspot functionality might be easier to implement.
Easytether works great for me. Get the app on market, works for unrooted too.

How to setup a computer to work with that app?
I'm very basic about WiFi things.
Help me.
Install the app on your phone, when you open it, it will set itself up and give you an HTTP:// address to put in your browser. Then you have access to your SD card through your web browser

+1 on that app. Using it, too. Easy as can be.
Please Explain More.
It does not setup itself.
Connect to your wifi network. Run app. In your browser type the adress given by the app. done.
How to setup a WiFI Network on my computer?
I'm using XP.
Google.
2. You do not connect directly to your PC, the app uses a WiFI AP (your router).
So PC & phone connected to the router, and it's done.
Also make sure your phone is connected to your wifi

Ad-Hoc
Frequency Band:Forgot.
Ch:10
Frequency Band what should i use?
802.11g
or
802.11b
hi, use 802.11b, i think desire'wifi can't support 802.11g
Supports b/g. Patch and custom kernel needed for n.
Download this app from Market: websharing.
Thanks to all.
Now all working well.
Using File Expert(free version).

"Reverse USB tethering" no root (Wired internet on PC tethered to offline Tablet)
Hi all,
I've seen lots of tethering aps that let you share your mobile device's internet connection with a PC via USB.
I'm wondering if I can do the reverse. I'd like to share the wired connection of a PC with my offline Tablet via USB (no wifi available).
Can it be done without root?
I think it is only possible with a Ethernet to micro usb

Yes it can be done. You need an OTG cable, then a supported USB to Ethernet adapter. I will not elaborate any further, this has been discussed many times in numerous forums (there is a great thread in the Nexus 7 2012 version section about what USB to Ethernet works and what does not - mind you the Apple adapter does and you can eBay it brand new for like 5$).
There is currently a bug in the Nexus 7 2013, the adapter is seen properly, but DHCP fails, and I tried manual address assignment, but DNS resolution still gives me issues. You can either get a patch for it, or wait for Google to fix it.

I can confirm it works (the mentioned Reverse USB Tethering). I set it up on Fedora 18 but only with root.
I found a USB wifi dongle that could act as an access point and run it in access point mode on my PC so my tablet can connect with wifi. No USB cables to fool with .

Hi! I've written an app for Reverse Tethering that does not need a rooted device. I've opened a dedicated thread for the app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-reversetethering-noroot-t3316716
