A virtual 56k modem for dial up? - General Questions and Answers

Is there a program out there that simulates a 56k modem on a Windows Mobile device so that I can connect to the internet using my dialup ISP credentials? If not, how hard would it be to make one? Any other ways to get dial up working on Windows Mobile? I do not have a data plan and would like Internet on my phone.

problem is that gsm devices can't connect to an old analog isp modem connection
back before gprs
the phone company's sold special gsm internet connections so phones which supported it
could be used as modems my old motorola 930 supported that but those
gsm data internet subscriptions were expensive both for having and using

hmm would there be a round about way to do it? like dial a traditional phone from your cell phone witch inturn dials dialup internet. i have wanted something like this before too.

My phone is Verizon (CDMA), not GSM. Don't know if that makes a difference.

Yes, that is what I am looking for. The problem is not the phone, it's that there is no modem in a WM phone. This is what I am looking for; A little program that sort of emulates a physical 56k modem.

when connected to activesync or PAN your phone will have the same network connection as your pc unless you have blocked it
so you can get internet that way
but there is no way that a program can make it possible for you to put in your nomal analog modem connections phone nr and settings and connect that way
programs run inside the operating system and access the network by using the gsm phone module so a program can bypass the gsm system

TREO 750v - VOICE (Phone Call) while TETHERING to PC/MAC (Dial-up Networking BT/USB)

Anyone know how to be able to Talk on the Phone (Using Voice) while tethering to a PC / Mac , I know I can talk on the phone while using PIE and other internet based applications on the Treo, but NOT WHEN I HAVE IT TETHERED via Dial-up Networking (either via Bluetooth or USB). Basically I have tried both, and am using a MacBook Pro, and successfully tethered to the internet through both BT and USB but it HANGS UP if I make a call (and I presume it hangs up when I receive a call), but either way it does not treat the TETHERING the same as using INTERNET on the Treo, is this just some Registry entry thats causing the problem or something?
Please help I have been trying 10098098034298 things to get it to work; however I only have a VERY limited knowledge of Windows Mobile 5.0 and am pretty useless. If someone could even just give me insight on what settings or registry entry(ies) deal with this I could play around with it an post any results once I stumble upon them...
Thank you so much in advance!!!!!!!!!
It all depends on the network connection you have.
GSM/GPRS doesnt support Voice and Data where UMTS does.
Make sure that you have a 3G connection.
Yes I do have a 3G connection, this same thing (Tethering when using Voice) works on my LG CU500 flawlessly both when using USB and BLUETOOTH to tether, no drop in speeds and voice is crystal clear.
Not sure if its the way in which I am dialing up or something, or if its some bug in the 750. let me know if you guys can helop. [email protected]!

Go to Menu>Preferences>Phone Settings and select the Services tab. Select the band selection and make sure to turn off auto and bind to UMTS only. If you are in auto and connected to GSM network and try to place a call while connected to DUN, thte call should suspend for a total of 13 minutes before disconnecting. If you are selected to strict UMTS then you should be OK for DUN and voice.

Conect 3g modem to my phone?

Hello I am about to contract the internet 3g modem for my notebook, u can see a pic here
http://www.clarochile.cl/banda_ancha/prepago.php
I have an htc touch pro 2, anyway I can hook it up there if I would like to?
Thanks
when connected to activesync your phone will have the same network connection as your pc unless you turned it off
you can't use usb devices directly with htc phones
you can most likely put the simcard of the device as they got simscards inside at least places where people use sincards which may exclude some parts of usa into the phone and set the gprs settings correctly and use it that way

Could I connect to my Internet PC connection via USB cable and my Desire / Bravo?

Hello People, I am looking for a way or app in order to get Internet on my HTC Desire using PC Internet Connection but I don't have any Wireless AP or similar, I need by connecting my Desire by USB to PC....any ideas about this?
thanks in advance
Simply can't be done. Someone would have to design a proxy app app for PC or something to talk to windows ics like what Ms did with activesync
single finger pecked on a galaxy s
it's a shame, hope anyone do this asap...
thanks anyway

Is there a reason you want do to this? Why cant you use your 3g?
of course there is a reason for all this, simple, where I live there is not 3G, EDGE, just GPRS but it's very limited, just exist one Cell Phone Carrier, so no choice....
I'm like you. My house must have alot of steel and whatnot that seem to just kill reception and I only get gprs. I went looking for a usb > android method for months and havn't come up with anything . What helped for me is setting my phone to lock onto WCDMA in settings and using the 3G only fix (type *#301279# in phone/dial pad then select [2] then [1]. To restore select [2] then [3]) Now I atleast get 2 bars with 3G (not full utms/Hpsa) which is fine as its better then GPRS and battery wise its a lot better then HSPA/UMTS but of cause it uses more power then GPRS but since I'm at home I always have it either plugged in or I can charge quick
You don't HAVE to set it to WCDMA only. You can leave it at GSM/WCDMA if you want but I find it very annoying when the phone keeps switching bands as it lags when i'm playing games that need network so thats why I leave it locked onto WCDMA only.
O crap, I didn't relize you don't have the a Galaxy S like I do. Maybe you can find a app or code or something to get your phone to lock onto 3G/EDGE only instead of HSPA
No No, I have HTC Desire / Bravo, will be very nice if something create some app to connect USB cable using Windows.....
I have found this
I have found this, but not sure if works or not, maybe someone can explain me better.

Can i share the connection between android and my pc through USB cable?
I'd like to connect to the internet with my android using the PC internet connection. Yes, you can. It's described on koolu's forum. Check this link [1].
If you dont have access i just copy paste the instructions below.
All credit goes to koolu and Brian Code for this info:

Yes, you can use the USB to browse the web...
You need to do three things to enable the internet.
1. First make sure that network forwarding is working on the computer that the phone is connected to. 2. Add the default route to the phone:
Code: Select all
route add default gw 192.168.0.200 dev usb0
3. Add the dns for proper name resolution
Code: Select all
setprop net.dns1 192.168.0.200
You should be able to ping the computer the phone is connected to:
Code: Select all
ping 192.168.0.200
You should also be able to ping IP addresses outside of that subnet if the route has been set up properly. The route can be verified by:
Code: Select all
cat /proc/net/route
If you're using windows 7, its easy. Use a bit of software called connectify. It turns your pc into an access point. Just connect your phone through WiFi and voila!!!
It doesn't have any software same as activesyn for android mobile ?
I cant connect to internet via my HD2 but I have internet connection in my PC.

you can try this:
http://blog.mycila.com/2010/06/reverse-usb-tethering-with-android-22.html
I know this is not a solution exactly, but the HD port has something called 'Internet pass-through' which is what you want. It's sad that we used to do it easily in WinMo but have to go through hell to do it in Android.
So if you feel like putting up a new ROM, try it here:

If he could connect to his computer through WiFi then wouldn't it be easier to connect straight to the net through WiFi,
There must be a way of doing this, I used to have a Samsung omnia, when you plugged in the usb cable it would connect to the net via the computers connection and sync the emails
Good luck with this but considering there is no way to access the internal memory other than in adb there is probably no way for the pc to access it either

Lumia 710 tethering , connected but no no Internet

Hi , so after I update my Lumia 710 , I got the new option of internet sharing , I tried it with a BlackBerry device and it just worked fine , on my laptop I tried to connect and the OS told me that I should turn on DHCP for Wireless networks , I did that and I just got connected and everything , my Windows7 network and sharing center shows me connected to the internet via this network , BUT still no internet access.

could be your provider? if not make sure you add the connection to your home network and not public or work.
Thanks for the reply,I made sure it is home network,but what do you mean by provider,can my provider block me from accessing the 3G connection from my laptop ? People used to wire their old mobiles to work as modems to connect,why would this be different ?, i think lm missing something obvious here.
Wired tethering (where the phone acts as a cellular modem for the PC) and wifi tethering (where the phone acts as a WiFi access point) are different, and require different software. The software for the latter will frequently include checks to see if your mobile operator permits tethering. USB modem tethering works differently and, assuming you configure the PC to connect in the ame way as the phone, is essentially indistinguishable.
Note that all of the gen1 Windows phones could also do USB tethering, although it was unofficial and sometimes a bit of a hack. I don't know if the Lumias have such a hack or not, but if they do, it should work even if the WiFi tethering doesn't.
Alternatively, since you're on a 710, you could (if you want) install a custom ROM. This would enable you to use WiFi tethering without the operator check, among many other cool hacks. Nobody has yet found a way to do high-privilege hacks on a stock Lumia ROM, though.
Also, in what way does your Internet connection not work? Do you receive an IP address? A DNS server? If you type "ipconfig /all" into the command line, what output do you get? (Please, just the lines about your wireless network adapter. Alternatively, do "ipconfig /all > ipconfig.txt" to produce a text file, and then attach that to your post here.) If you type "ping google.com" does that work?
Thanks for the informative reply , it seems like it needed a restart for ping to work , Pinged Google successfully, for the browser it was my fault , I had an old proxy settings enabled , I just had to removed it and I'm posting here now using this exact connection

[Q] WiFi tethering bridge to existing access point

Hi there,
At my girlfriend's house there's an existing WiFi access point for their home network and they also have a bunch of computers wired in with ethernet cable. Mobile reception in the house is terrible but I've found one spot by a window where I can sustain a pretty decent dc-hsdpa link. I'm able to tether my laptop to my phone, the phone creates a new WiFi network ap and my laptop connects to that. That works fine.
The thing is, what I'd really like to do, is to have access to the dc-hsdpa connection from some of the wired computers on her home network. To do that I want to have my phone bridge the house network - via their existing WiFi ap - to the mobile internet connection. I'd like the phone to provide a gateway on the house network that could be manually used from the other computers. (I want to avoid using DHCP or anything as it will disrupt the network for other users.)
I know this is technically possible but I'm struggling to find an application that allows for this functionality. I've spent a good amount of time searching around the internet but to no avail. Does anyone know where I can look or of a suitable application? (My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 flashed to run a rooted variant of the play edition KitKat rom.) I'm happy to pay money.
Cheers, Dave.
