I followed the directions on my rooted tab to my rooted droid. Its connected but I cannot access internet.HELP!
Got stuck with the same issue....
seems, as far as could read in other forums and threads, that Droids and iPhones are not supposed to connect to the Internet using the PC's connection (via USB or Ad-hoc W-Lan). Using my local router at home: works fine.
My HTC HD2 with WM6.5 connects to the PC with its internet connection without a Problem (usb and wireless Ad-hoc). The same HTC HD2 with Android won't work ....
DiLo
Same thing...

I have an HTC Legend (on contract) for about 2 weeks now. And the thing is I don't have internet on my plan. I am (well obviously) green about Android because its my first phone with that OS. I had WM before (Tilt2 and Pure).
How to get internet connection without using wi-fi?
on WM you just had to connect your phone to pc through AS and you could use internet from the laptop or pc.
Is there any similar way on android?
btw. My Legend is rooted and Im using r2-Modaco-customrom from Paul.
nope there isn't a way (not that i'm aware of). but you can share your PC's connection via wifi using this program (for pc) called connectify
Hey I am just learning the basics of smartphones. And I switched from Windows Mobile to my new Samsung Android. Anyways my question is: I have an old HTC Pure. I was wondering if I can use the phone as a wireless router. Use it to get the wifi signal and then connect it to my pc via usb and use the wifi to go on the internet on my pc.
Here are the basics. I have a PC in a room with no phone jack and the pc has no bluetooth or wifi. So I was wondering if I can connect my HTC Pure via usb and use the pure's wifi to brosw the web.
Thanks

Can anyone help me because I really wish I had internet in that room
Problem solved igot s usb wifi adapter
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
AKA reverse-tethering.
I tried to find info on that subject and it's impossibly scarce. Very strange as I am sure there are a lot of guys that don't have 3g connection.
So how to do it?
Is it possible to configure Bluetooth PAN and do it like the WM6.5 guides say?
Is it possible through USB connection?
Easiest way is on a PC with a wireless network adapter and Windows 7.
Use the Virtual Router Manager http://virtualrouter.codeplex.com/ to set up your computer as a wireless router that you can connect your phone to.
I use it a lot when I am travelling / working and a hotel room or office only has wired internet. I can connect the laptop to the ethernet then share up the connection via my wireless LAN.

Make sure your driver supports this function. VirtualRouter website provides with a list of compatible network cards (link).
In addition, only Win7 supports this service.

Try the wpa_adhoc-signed.zip from this thread: "Android Ad-hoc support hack/wpa_supplicant"
I had the same problem, but this solved it. My HTC Desire sees now AdHoc access points.

This worked perfectly! I am using an external USB Wireless WiFi Network Adapter to connect my laptop to the internet, so I don't know if that makes a difference. Thanks for sharing the info!!!
Hi,
I'm a happy owner of both a Nexus One and a Nook Color, both rooted and running CyanogenMod.
I got a full data access on my mobile so I can tether its connexion to either any laptop (using wifi or usb tethering) or the Nook Color (using wifi or bluetooth PAN). That's working quite fine even though this requires to get a good data signal strength covering the place you are.
Unfortunatelly, at work, I almost got no data access.
My laptop got full internet access via its LAN Ethernet adapter and has both wifi and bluetooth available.
My question is simple : How can I share my laptop's internet access with my android devices using bluetooth ?
PS : Even if I can only pair one of the two android devices with my laptop at a time, that still would rock !
Thanks !
Bump... I have the same question and exactly the same situation...!!
I have same problem here. My computer get full access internet via LAN, and just only have bluetooth connection (no wifi). How i can share it? symbian can share bluetooth internet connection with apps called GNUBOX. How about Android? Anyone can help??
I think that you can't use internet over bluetooth,
maybe you can try using internet over usb cable - it is supported in newer android updates

U right, here the thread u mean? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941227
Here's the problem of a newb user of an Android tablet.
I favent' found any similar thread here @ the Forum.
I've just bought a chinese tablet (EM73...maybe Haipad or Irobot) with Ginger 2.3.3 installed by the vendor.
Everything goes right but not the sharing connection with the modem of my HTC TP2 (WM 6.5).
I can do it (through BT or WIFI connection) just if I use my netbook (Win XP home) running WMWifiRouter or CM Internet sharing. The router is immediatly recognized by the pc and I can use internet or SN (like FB) or Skype....and so on with an EDGE connection.
I've tried to do the same by connecting the modem-router to my new tablet, running WMWIFIRouter on TP2 but without seeing the net in the list of wifi connections.
No problem with the router and the ADSL connection that I use at home but no connections appears in the list of the tablet if I try to share the EDGE connection of my smartphone.
I've tried to connect by using an USB cable (using some apps found on the market) but nothing happens.
Someone says it depends of the type of connection (ad hoc = WM; infrastructure = Android)... but I can't find any solution to create that type of connection (is it possible ???=).
Can someone help me please ?
Though I don't have a solution, to help I can promise you it has to do with using ad-hoc. My Sirius and DSLite would not hook up to my WinMo phone because of it being Ad-hoc.
