Can some one tell me how to share my 3G connection over wifi? I need to make the phone as a portable access point.
no can do.
Bluetooth or USB
Try hitchhiker it's free! but I'm not sure if it works for sharing using 3G... try it and let me know http://www.kasuei.com/hitchhiker/
No, It doesn't support to share the 3G connection.
So use Internet sharing over BT ?
Would like to use it as a wireless access point, so I can get access from computer and iPhone, seem like I have hard time to find a solution.
share the connection with the PC by USB. Put a wifi stick/pcicard in the PC and bridge the connections, then the iFoon can have 3G too

you got this to work?
or are you saying it should work?
i have tried to share a connection this way but have had no luck when using internet connection sharing/pan.
i did get it to work this way back in the day when the phone ran wm5 and had dun.
do you have any pointers on how to get internet connection sharing in wm6 to let more than one device connect to the 3g connection?

seems like you may need an app on your pc to manage/route the connections not sure if this helps but you can try "network Magic" it give you a bit more options on the pc side for managing connections. would like to see where this goes for possible future applications. i'll give it a try when i have some free time and check with an comp tek friend of mine see what he thinks.
Yeah it sucks that no one has created a way to share the wifi connection just like we share bluetooth or usb.
We also need a proxy server that we can run on our phone.
ok, for me the boring part is the time of the connection, you can share via wifi by just turning on your internet sharing in whatever the pc connection, you just need to manually deffine your hermes wifi to 192.168.0.1 and it shares via internet sharing! The question here is that the connections stops after 10 minutes becouse of the warnig "check usb cable connection". Its very irritating to have to start connection every 10 min. !!!!!
awww...iPhones not fast enough Data-Wise for ya?
thought it was supposed to "revolutionize PDA Phones"
hah.
sorry, i had to add my 2ยข against Apple.
Beware, some mobile provider allready use NAT, thus you'll recieve a non-routable IP. I am not sure that you will be able to share a connection of this kind.
This application lets you use your phone as WIFI router without setting up anything in device. Let me if you guys like it.
This application has its own thread here on XDA-Developers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357152. Don't really see the point of you posting the CAB here.. without all the information needed.
Well this message, in the wrong place, introduced me to your excellent application!
thank you
How do you turn off this wifirouter?? i got it working and works fine although i cant get my archos gen 5 to pick it up but i tuned it off but my computer still picks it up although it cnt connect to it
the app is connected but i am not connected to the internet on my laptop...any answers? i tried resetting a bunch of times
is it the trial version or the real thing? is there a free way of doing it.. does it work for windows 5
infrastructure mode?
is there a way to broadcast in infrastructure mode, instead of ad hoc? i would love to use a zune hd with this, but it is not able to see ad hoc networks. thanks.

the SSID is not showing up in my computer. All others (mine and my neighbors wireless connections) are showing up.
How to get my playstation 3 2 work with this router
Hi i am so damn frusterated right now with this. How do i get my ps3 to work with this router thing. My computer connects to it and recieves wifi. But when i try to find it with my ps3 it wont detect it. Does any one know how do i get this 2 work.
try this
1. connect ur trinity to ur laptop / pc via USB and run "internet sharing" on your trinity.
2. Set up an Ad-Hoc connection on your PC / Laptop and directly connect ur PS3 to it.
3. In network settings on your PC / Laptop click the ad-hoc connection icon and the windows mobile based device icon (Ctrl-Left click each one) right click one of them when their both selected and click on bridge connection from the drop down menu.
this method's a bit of a potch to set up but once its running it works perfectly and you only have to set it up once. it also lets you use the internet on your pc and ps3 at the same time.
I'm pretty late to this and NEW (newbie), but I wanted to make a quick post about it's use on my Imagio winmo 6.5 OS 5.2.21... no mods, no roms burned and this works perfectly. Now I can surf at work without the assistance of our helpful IT friends LOL.

Your laptop or pc picks up adhoc signals aswell as infrastructure, to be quiet honest, this app is very useless when advertised as a router, doesn't route anything if just limited to adhoc, adhoc = computer to computer connections, not a router to me at all! Its a very nice app for many other things though.. I see someone giving you instructions for 'ICS' doing all that just makes it all pointless and you may aswell just get a home router connected to house line!
This is one of my favourite apps. I've been using it for a long time now and just awesome.

Really love this app. Only problem is that it worked great the first time I launched it. Now it can't connect. It just keeps on cycling trying to connect to att gprs and finally says "the remote party has ended this connection". Any ideas?

It sounds like possibly your connection settings have been erased. Can you get internet in Explorer, etc? If so, please disregard this...

I think we'll need some more info to be able to help, not entirely sure what you're trying to figure out...
Are you wanting to know if your computer will still be able to connect to your router for internet access when your phone is connected to the computer at the same time with the USB cable?

yes, I think that's exactly what I'm asking...do I need to hook my phone directly up to the router with some kind of adapter, or can I just mess with network settings in windows 7 and get it to work?
Thanks
i think he possibly means use his phones internet for the router. so other computers can connect to the phones internet. not sure. need more info
if thats what you want to do you can use ur phone itself as a router

you do know what tethering is right? when you tether you use your phones internet for the computer. so why would you want to tether AND use your internet with the router?
Maybe I'm just asking wrong, just want to be able to use my wireless router like normal, I have my main computer tethered for internet, but I want to use my laptop or xbox to get online like if I had regular internet...

so. to clarify. you dont have regular internet and you want to use your phone just like if you had regular internet? for ALL devices in your house at the same time?
i think it is possible. im not 100% sure. and i dont think you can use your normal router. because your computer would have to act as a dsl/cable modem
i have something that MIGHT work. and i also have win 7. ill try a few things out and see if i can get something to work for you.
ALSO as a side note. i dont recommend using your phone for so many connections because most networks have a 5GB/mo limit. and i dont think it would be best for gaming because of high latency of 3g.
Ok, thanks...I was thinking that about the x-box, that 3g might be too slow, but wanted to try anyway...I do at least want to get my router working though...I did try to call linksys and get support but my router is not covered anymore...
also, what about using that app you recommended...will x-box live recognize that?
ok so i just tried connecting my computer which does not have a wireless card. and my laptop. it can only eeither support multipul wireless connections. or 1 wired connection
the app that i mentioned works well with my laptop it has the same distance as a regular router as far as i can tell.
im not sure if it works with xbox. i see no reason why it shouldnt, but ill try it out.
so basicly you CANT use your router
you can make it all wireless so your laptop xbox any anything else can connect
OR you can have it wired to where only your computer connected
(but i just thought of something you can do that might work so you can use your router. you could possibly bridge your connections imma try it out)
if you figure it out maybe give me some instructions...I really appreciate your help...

ok the thing i thought didnt work. but the xbox works JUST FINE. i havent tested it on any games cus my xbox is banned :X but i dont thinks its to slow. its just say you shoot at someone. a few sec later they get hit. just not instantly
so wireless works fine for all devices. just not your main computer. sorry. i cant find anything that works for your main computer and wireless. and in not sure if theres just an adapter you can buy (if there is that would be awesome)

Kind of clunky but still may work.
Tether to main PC.
Set Ethernet card on main PC to ICS, Internet connection sharing.
Connect Ethernet card to WAN Port on Router.
You may need a cross-over cable.
Point Router Wan connection to IP address of Ethernet card.
Set router IP internal addresses to something other than 192.168.0.xx, such as 10.0.0.1-xxxxxx or other to avoid double NAT.
All the rest inside the router is the regular router stuff.
Other guy may have come up with a Win7 solution already.
This is how I would start with WinXP.

Kind of needing to know where you are with setup now b4 offering any advice.
PM me and maybe we could set up chat/voice connection.
I use Skype.
ok i followed steps on a few sites all tell basically the same thing but when i do that everything works fine EXCEPT my computer dont want to use the phone as the primary device its still trying to use the Ethernet card
( i tired that on my XP comp)
now with windows 7 there is NO luck whatsoever
it wont even recognize the devices if i want to set it up
so i guess the closing answer is use the WIFI sharing app that i posted a link to and just use that as a router
if there is any app or in depth details on how to set it up please tell. to help him out. and for future reference
there possibly is a way just not with my card/OS if you have any luck let me know

Let WinXP computer be the bridging device. It needs to stay on for ICS to work.
Then Xbox, Win7, and others will be on same network for sharing of files.

I have seen a linux variation used as a firewall/router.
If a machine could be crafted to connect to WINMO or other device through USB or other port as an internet modem to the machine which acts as a router, how cool would that be?
Is there anyway I can have my desire use my PC's internet when it is connected via usb?
At this stage I dont have wifi at work and cant use that method.
Essentially I want to reverse the direction of tethering when the phone is connected to my computer.
Thanks, Dean
Unfortunately, reverse tethering or connecting the phone through computer's Internet connection (through an ad hoc wifi) is not possible, which is quite annoying. It would be nice if this type of feature, although highly unlikely, could be incorporated an upcoming ROM update for example.
That is annoying, especially since I could do this with my old WM - although thanks for the reply and info.
I wonder if it could be done through an app perhaps.
Cheers, Dean

Yes it's extremely annoying. I had this on my HD and HD2, but i really don't know why HTC could not incorporate this with the Desire. Afterall, it's a desirable (excuse pun) feature.
it has nothing to do with your phone, since it all depends on the host computer. On mac: you can do it easily by sharing your internet connection in system preferences.

it has everything to do with your phone. If the phone has no interface for it, it won't work.
Can't say whether it works or not, just saying that it does not depend solely on your computer

If your computer has a wifi card (laptops usually do, desktops don't) you can create a local network and connect your desire to it.
No idea if it's possible over a wire
You don't need to create an ad-hoc network, just download connectify and use it as a hotspot on your laptop, then connect the Desire to the hotspot you just created and that's it.

Ahh that is handy!
Thanks for the tip
I created an adhoc network following this: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/adhoc.mspx
The host laptop itself can see the adhoc network, but desire cannot.
Any ideas?
Maybe I'm wrong but AFAIK Desire can't 'see' ad-hoc networks, only access points. You can get internet from PC, but only using Connectify under Windows 7 or by using advanced magic under Linux.
Am I right or something has changed lately?
BTW: does anybody share internet from Linux? Any suggestions?
As far as i know, you can only see an ad-hoc network if you have the desire rooted and change some files somewhere (can't remember which ones...), either way the next best thing is to use some kind of software that creates an Wifi Access Point.
I don't get it: why would you want to connect to the internet via your PC instead of directly connecting to your WiFi router ?
Maybe when you only have a LAN-connection?
Or Maybe when your in Work and only have a Lan Setup
and want to access / download things on your phone,
Reverse USB tethering would be AMAZING!!!!!

Stupid me, just hadn't realized that still not everyone has a WiFi capable router nowadays...
The problem with ad-hoc internet sharing is that your host PC still needs a WiFi connection. You can't use internet through USB. I've tried it yesterday at work (yes, for the Froyo update ), but no succes.
Having a smartphone in a country with high mobile data costs is like having a Ferrari to do your local grocery shopping Fortunately I'll have unlimited mobile internet next week. So I can finally use my Desire as intended.
Dear All,
Anyone managed to use "Port Forwarder Ultimate" app from Playstore? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.portforwarderultimatepro&hl=en
I'm not a technical person but this method has other potentials to explore. Maybe someone has patient to teach non-IT person.
I know that I should be satisfied with "USB tethering" in android. But users experience improves with new things.
As prerequisite, we should be able to ping our phone's public IP. but how to ping mobile Public IP?
A detailed guide with screenshot or video will help.
Thanks,
AB
This app does not provide such a feature, it would work if it was installed on your carrier router.
You have an class c address witch is not routable.
The app provide means for running a server app on your phone that is using a port below 1024 , ex: ftp, web etc. If you are connected on your wifi network and make proper port forwarding on your router than you will be able to access your phone from the Internet. But it does not make any sense in doing so.
To access your phone's external ip address regularly you need to run the DynDNS client that forwards your ip to dyndns. When you setup an account with DynDNS you select a url to use and DYDNS will forward any requests to that URL to your phone's current ip address. Naturally you will need a service running on your phone like a web server, ftp or vnc depending on what you want to do.
