I need some help, as I'm kinda clueless with networking. I have an Ubuntu desktop connected to the same monitor my 360 is. I can connect to xbl a few different ways.
1. With the d-link wireless gaming adapter, set to adhoc mode, connected to my wifi tether.
2. USB/wifi tethering the desktop to my phone and sharing the internet connection with the Ethernet port where my Xbox is plugged in.
I've used, wifi tether for root users, barnacle (which supposedly allows port forwarding), built in USB and wifi tether (I'm on cm7 nightly with an HTC glacier)
I've managed to connect, but NAT is set to strict on all. Does anybody know how to change this? I don't know if there's a way to change this within the build.prop, or some other file?
Any help or advice would be much appreciated. I just have no other internet connection.

The lack of response really blows. I have the same exact issue and I cant fathom there not being a way around it . I'll keep looking and please let me know if you stumble upon something that works
The "nat type strict" we see on xbox live, from reading around allot deals with the bandwidth(speed) of your internet. If you use fast wifi, your nat type will be ok, but if someone goes on your wifi an use the internet, it's slower. The internet speeds we get from the cell towers is no where fast enough to change it.
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

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.
http://www.connectify.me/
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

Ok ive been tryin to tether my Nexus S4g to my xbox using my laptop and I keep getting an error on xbox that its no able to get DNS settings or somthing to connect. I used to be able to do it with my Epic just fine but no go with my
Nexus. Im running CM7 with Matrix 5.5 bfs kernal. Ive tried it with the built in hotspot, wired tether, pda net and nothing all the same errors. Could a different kernal work by any chance? or Rom? any help would be greatly appreciated!!! thanks in advance!
I'm confused, what does your laptop have to do with it? Can't you connect directly to the hotspot with the xbox?
I dont got a wireless adapter for my xbox, so it wont connect directly, so i use my laptop connected to it using zune to go on live.

Oh okay. Do you get Internet on the laptop when connecting? Have you tried verifying the dns settings (should work fine in automatic but you can always set it up manually if needed)
Sent from my Nexus S 4G
manually configure an IP Address on the XBox and set the DNS Servers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and that should fix it.
Keep in mind that you are doing a double NAT the way you are setup and XBL may be difficult to connect to. It has an issue with double-NAT. I set my network adapters in bridged mode to set up similar to what you are doing (though my connection at home is through WIFI to Comcast, it's still the path as you are using to get the XBox to the Internet).
Hey all,
I have an unrooted Asus Eee Pad Transformer, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if it is possible to tether the internet from my laptop to my Transformer.
I've plugged it into my laptop, and clicked tether, but do not seem to get any internet connection. Is anyone able to help?
Thanks
Rob
It is possible but you need additional software on your laptop or you need to enable ICS (Internet connection sharing) which often has mixed results.
It also depends on how your laptop is connecting to the internet. If your laptop has a wired connection to the net then your wifi will offer the hotspot connection for your other wireless devices such as the TF'er. I've used Connectify before which worked well although I did need to manually start the connection after each reboot even though it was in the startup programs.
Think I've decided it's my university internet connection. I have a wired connection, but unable to make a wifi hotspot as I'm only allowed one I.P address blah blah, so complete and utter ball ache if you ask. May give them a ring!
I'm in the same situation as you are. No wifi and only one IP.
Use Connectify on laptop. Works for me. No prolem with 1 IP becouse it will make it's own subnet.
Other option is to use USB-rj45 dongle. Had been explaned somewhere on this forum.
Why not use a WiFi router and mirror the IP address if you are only going to use one at a time.
I have a rooted Samsung Droid Charge and have been enjoying wireless tether programs for awhile. I am still grandfathered in an unlimited data plan with Verizon so it's great. I don't pay for cable internet anymore and 4G is faster than what I was getting.
The only problem was I lost my Wireless network that I enjoyed with cable internet and wireless router and the benefits that come with it (DLNA server, print server etc). Also not all my devices (namely PS3) recognize ad hoc networks (although I did find a wireless tether program that the PS3 recognized)
Basically I want my wireless network back and not have to tether my phone every time to each device.
So I finally found a SOLUTION! The GR 1733 Sapido router. Supposedly you can USB tether or wireless tether your smartphone to it and I can get my wireless network back. Only problems some people are successful and talk about how easy it is, where I am having problems setting it up. I want to either USB tether or wireless tether. When I set to wirelessly tether the SAPIDO router recognizes my Smartphones network but when apply the settings the Sapido router disappears from available networks.
Has anyone found any solution to create a wireless network using whatever equipment and the Droid Charge for internet?
Use Wifi Tether 3.0 pre12, set the device profile to Fascinate, and set the setup method to Softap for Samsung. It works in infrastructure mode then instead of ad-hoc so it looks just like a wireless router.

I have wifi tehter and I am able to use it to make it look like a wireless router. The problem is I want to use a wireless router! LOL. I want to be able to print wirelessly and access my DLNA server on my PS3 etc. Is there a way to do this with that?

PDANet is a USB tether program. It's a bit expensive though for what it does. I would recommend buying it and then trying it instantly, and if it doesn't work get a refund.

In the past i used PDANet but went to opengarden for the wireless tether functionality and then to wifi tether because it allowed me to connect to my PS3.
The only problem with PDANet is you need to tether to a computer with the software. I want to tether to a router so I can have a wireless network. Wireless Print, DNLA servers etc.
Either A:
Internet Connection Sharing from a computer connected to phone either with wifi or usb tether, then out of the computer and into your router.
Or B:
Additional router, configured as wifi client or bridge to phone, into your main router. Phone must be set up in infrastructure for this to work.

I would more than likely go with A: I use WIFI tether from my Samsung Droid Charge to connect my computer to the internet. I then connect a wireless router to my computer via USB or Ethernet cable? Then enable Internet Connection Sharing.
Connect wan port of router to laptop ethernet.
Enable ICS.
the ethernet port on laptop will provide internet to whatever is connected to that port as long as you are getting wifi from phone.
Not hard, but laptop won't be on the same network as stuff connected to router, so I dunno if you can share files from the laptop.
There are many ICS guides out there.

Hi all,
Wondering if anyone knows of an Android app that will allow me to share the lan connection on my tablet via wifi?
Have looked at lots of hotspot type apps but the vast majority are simple shortcuts to an exisiting wifi hotspot function that shares the mobile data connection.
Seems daft to me that I have lan and wifi on my tablet but I'm looking at an ap to connect my other devices!
Thanks
Jin
I didnt understand what u said
If u want to share ur tab net to other use wifi hotspot
If u have wifi connection u can connect via wifi
Sent by typing by my fingers
Are you trying to tether your data connection or do you mean using your tablet as a hub for an existing wifi connection?
What phone do you have?
What carrier?
Did you root your phone?
Have you flashed a new ROM?
Sorry but you were rather vague in your post.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
Ok thanks. To clarify my tablet (not phone and therefore no carrier involved) has both ethernet and wifi I would like to use the ethernet to connect to my network/internet and then broadcast that connection via wifi.
This is exactly the same thing a normal wifi hotspot does except it broadcasts the mobile data connection as opposed to a wired connection.
The tablet has been flashed with Tims 6 ROM
Don't now if it's possible. On phone it;s not possible to share be a hotspot when you're on wifi. I guess it uses the same piece of hardware. That might also be the case for you with the LAN.
BTW try talking to this guy :

he had sort of the same question perhaps he figured it out?

How do you have your tablet connected to the internet, wireless or wired? If wired, how did you do that? If it's wireless, you're just using your tablet as a signal booster.
What i'm confused on is if you connected your tablet wireless and want to connect other devices to your tablet's "wifi" which in essence is wifi, why can't that device connect to the same internet as your tablet?
I think we're all a bit confused on what you're trying to accomplish.
Sorry folks struggling here with what you don't get (not being smart just confused)
I have an Android tablet that has both wifi and an ethernet connection, I connect to my network via ethernet and want to use that connection to then create a wifi hotspot for my other devices to connect to.
I already do this with my win7 laptop and am looking for an app to do the same on the tablet.
If my terminology is correct I need to bridge the lan connection to the wifi adapter?
