so i have a bad wireless card in my laptop and i was trying to use my tilt connected via usb to pick up my linksys wireless signal. there wasnt a problem in teh world doing it with xp, i just pluged it in, installed activesync and off i went... but now with win7... lets just say this hasnt been my first attempt... anyone have any ideas or insight on this?
no one has any idea?
Activesync wouldn't have allowed you to do that on XP, only to use the laptops wireless internet on your phone.
Easiest and most reliable way of using your phone as a wifi dongle is WMWifIRouter but it isnt free. There are free alternatives such as ICS Control, but I never got them to work.
hi all i am somewhat new to rooting my phone. i love it makes my phone worth the price i paid for it. however i have a wireless tether which i use for my laptop but i was looking around for a tether that i can get internet access on through the USB. sadly i havnt found anythin gif anyone knows about anything that would be a HUGE help. I have the EVO 4G running on superuser, and using windows 7. I need a USB tether for my desktop computer so i can access the internet on my xbox from my desktopcomputer. so what im basicly looking for help with is an app program or what ever it takes to beable to use a USB (not wireless) and get the internet on my desktop computer which cannot pick up a wifi signal.
thanks all again, I OWE YOU one
You can use this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.pdanet&hl=en or this: https://market.android.com/details?...EwOSwiY29tLm1zdHJlYW0uZWFzeXRldGhlcl9iZXRhIl0.
FYI: Root is not needed (but it doesn't affect it either way)
What I neeed is is an iphone or an android device to acts a wifi adapter/dongle so I can view a list of available access points on my computer and connect to them.
Does this make sense?
I'm sure this is possible.
Does anyone have any idea?
Ay help help? Thanks!!

What exactly are you trying to do?
Are you trying to tether your computer through your phone (i.e. connect the computer to the phone via USB cable, and then use the phone's WiFi / 3G connection on your computer)?
Or just use the phone as a wifi finder (which seems odd because if your computer has WiFi then it should be able to see the access points on its own..)?
I'll assume you're going for the first one because the second one doesn't make any sense. You should search the forum for "USB tether" .. although since you're asking for iPhone or android, it seems like you don't have a device yet...

I have no WiFi adapter. I want to use an android/iPod as a wifi adapter so I can see possible connections listed on the PC (providided by the ipod or android device)..
I build a WiFi antenna that i want to put the device in, i hook the phone/ipod to the computer, then on the computer i find the best wifi point to connect to and connect to it.
I dont want to see the listings for the access points on the device, i want to see and connect to the listings on my computer.
Shameless bump.
I basically want my old android phone or old iPod touch to act as a wifi adapter. That's it.
You mean a hotspot?
I have looked everywhere for an answer.
When I conect my note3 to my windows 8 ta let I get net and can surf,however I can't watch amazon prime if I go to the Adobe flash install page it thinks I am on a Linux machine. It only does this while cone Ted via usb.
I have even tried user agent switching in chrome,ff, and ie.
Any suggestions would be great.
Before I start, I know I can transfer files via ultra-slow Bluetooth. I am hoping for a different solution.
I have a Motorola Z2Force and I want to be able to transfer files wirelessly to my Samsung SM-T810. The Motorola has NFC and the Samsung, of course, does not. Neither are rooted.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this. Again, wirelessly? I tried connecting to the same wifi network and transferring that way but their firewalls seem to prevent this.
Thanks for any ideas!
