run Wireless Manager & click on Wifi to start Wifi..it should 'sniff out' your router & allow you to connect from there.
Hi
I was wondering if anybody knows of any method or program through which i can use my HTC Wizard or Tornado as a WIFI adapter for my laptop.
basically, in order to use the WIFI on my handset as a wifi network connection for my computer.
is this possible?
thanx
You cannot share wifi connection, just gprs (edge/umts).
Please follow my articles, I'ver thoroughly answered your question at http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=453&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
What i want to do is connect my g1 to share the computers internet connect then use the g1 wifi to transmit the signal out.. anyone know how to do this?
wow, wrong thread but if i follow you correctly, you have:
INTERNET----------COMPUTER
you want your g1 to be a wifi router? wtf just put one in between internet and computer... lolz
I know what does this,
but as you didn't read the forum rules,
I also see you have only one post, so you came in here and instead of easily finding an answer to your problem via google, you clog up our development thread
Because of these things I will refuse to answer your question, I implore any other members who see this to not answer as well.

Reverse tether is the exact opposite of USB tether. Say you are at work/school and you have a desktop that has network access but you don't have access to infrastructure. You have a laptop but either don't have access to the network or don't have the network key. You want to plug in your G1 to the desktop and share its connection over Ad-Hoc that other devices (laptop, etc.) can access to have internet.

if this is what he is referring to as reverse tether, i'm also interested.
Here at work I have no kind of data signal, and connecting through my computer would be great!
Is there a way? Without having to go through our WIFI? Maybe a wired-reverse tether?
you could share your PCs WIRED internet connection wirelessly with an ad-hoc wireless connection. google is your friend.

Normally you can use the internet from t-mobile (G1) on your computer. He is looking to use the internet from a computer on a G1
Why call it reverse, isnt it ICS?
it 'd be great to have the opportunity to use the G1 as a wi-fi repeater , in case of low signal between wi-fi spot and your pc, as the follows:
WIFI ROUTER <------> G1 <------> PC
maybe it's possible to implement or only a dream?

Tethering is a term used to describe connecting your phone to your laptop so that you laptop can use your phone's internet connection.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tethering
Reverse tethering would be using another device to supply internet to a G1.
By this definition, connecting a G1 to a WiFi hotspot could technically be considered "reverse tethering" however we don't generally use the term in that sense.
I understand reverse tethering, but reverse TEATHERING? WTF?
go suck your mother's teat(hering)
Ad-Hoc connection
Whoops missread what you were saying...
Anyways... you shouldn't be using your phone as a modem to connect the rest of your house to the internet... It's painful and could possibly kill your phone from the heat it will generate from sending and receiving the packets. But if you really wanted to.. You can use your phone to tether to a laptop or a machine via USB and then bridge the connection to a NIC device. Then from there.. allow your computer to route the packets and assign IP to DHCP.
I think it would be nice to create an app to easily setup reverse tethering via usb. That said, don't post a thread about it here unless you are a developer creating one. Even so, it would be better to post in the apps forum. A mod will move this thread soon, I'm sure. I just wish there were some restriction requiring mod approval of new threads by junior members before they can be posted, at least in dev forums.
If your using windows 7 there is an program that could work for you.
I use it as i dont have a data connection on my phone.

It can turn your Wifi from your PC/Laptop into an access point.
Which i believe is what your after.
Instructions on how to tether in either direction are already posted here

Lately i've been having problems with my ISP and during these downtimes i was searching for different ways of sharing my data plan through our wireless router, but i couldn't find anything other than turning my phone into a hotspot. Since not all of our devices have a Wi-Fi adapter, I was wondering if any of you guys know a way of bridging the Cellphone data modem with the Wi-Fi modem within android, to use the phone as an IP gateway for all the non-Wi-Fi devices connected to the Wi-Fi/LAN Router, and at least have my mother be able to check her email and stop asking me for my phone every time
I hope i made enough sense. If not, please let me know so i can put together a little something to explain myself better Thanks in advance! :laugh:
Mods: If i have posted this in the wrong forum, i apologize beforehand.
Today I read an article about "How To Use Laptop’s Internet on Android Phone via Wifi". Hotspot app is needed to do this. My question is: does it need to root the phone? I have a desktop (Win7), not laptop. If I use portable WiFi device/ adapter, will it work to do this?
If the tutorial is available here, please share me.....
Thank you in advance!
See, if you are using desktop.. You need wifi adapter..
But, I recommend you to get Wifi Router instead of adapter as you'll need to keep PC on in order to use internet on mobile and there is price difference of only Rs 400-500 in adapter and router..
Setting up router is easy while setting up internet connection on adapter is little bit tricky. You get some instruction manual with the adapter to help you out..
