Hello All,
I have a fully rooted Archos 101 G8 tablet and have Root Explorer installed. I have edited the required wpa_supplicant.conf file under /data/misc/wifi and tiwlan.ini.
I have MyWi installed on my iPhone 3GS (jailbroken) and set up as adhoc WEP transmitter. And wpa supplicant is correctly setup for this new adhoc SSID and WEP key, as well as tiwlan.ini has wifiadhoc=1.
I can connect fine to this new ssid to my laptop. And I can scan this adhoc ssid on my archos 101 (via wifi explorer app on it), but dont see this under settings / wireless networks. I have tried to add this manually, but it always show as not in range.
I will appreciate if someone can help me connect Archos tablet to my 3G connection via iPhone.
Thanks a lot

Today I upgraded my Stock GTAb to TNT Lite 501 which is great. (thanks)
I created an Ad Hoc Network on my windows 7 laptop and tested it with my IPhone which works just fine.
My GTAB Wifi can see the AdHoc SSID but just recycles with an Obtaining IP Address message.
I did spend a few hours researching this but can not find any usefull info and noticed many people have the same problem.
Anyone have a solution ?
Thanks
add the adhoc connection manually to your tablet:
Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Add Wi-Fi Network
This has worked for me (I also use the Wefi app, I have ever since tnt-lite was a baby)
Just tested an adhoc connection (Win mobile phone) with 5.0.1 and it works just fine.

I just tried that a few times but that doesnt work. My AdHoc is on a windows 7 laptop. The SSID is janspc. Added janspc manually to my GTab but the GTab just adds (*)janspc and ignores janspc. Added manually (*)janspc but that doesnt work either.
Any more sugestions ?

Here is an article that I used before the fix to manually connect to Adhoc networks....Hope you can find the answer in here:

I believe that the "hotspot" you are trying to attach to is running on your phone right, I'm not sure that the iPhone puts out an adhoc mode system as apposed to an infrastructure mode network (two different animals)? Then you connect to your phone's adhoc/infrastructure mode hotspot from the laptop. My adhoc connection also shows up as (*)hotspot and uses a wep key nnnnnnnnnn where n=any numeric value from 1-0 if you are offered any other options than "Wep", say wpa/wpa2 the connection may not be an adhoc connection. After the setup is completed you would then go back in and click on the (*)janspc, push the forget button and enter the Pw again (check it before clicking connect) and now check connect. If this does not get it working correctly then see below:
Look carefully at the inclusions to the Wi-Fi file mentioned in the article I linked to previously
Feel free to PM me if you need to
try connectify
Instead of creating an ad hock network you can download connectify and create an infrastructure mode hotspot for your laptop.

Dear friends,
I'm using TF101 with GREAT TeamEos 3 ROM build .81. + K.A.T Kernel .69
All seems to work perfect, except Internet Connection.
Normal WiFi (infrastructure) works perfect, but I want to use my Nokia E52 (Symbian) with JoikuSpot application as mobile hotspot. On stock rom, 9.2.27 (ICS 4.0) all worked great.
Now, when I've installed K.A.T toolbox with wpa_supplicant from K.A.T, my tablet saw my AP SSID, but when I tried to connect it, I got errors:
"Trying to associate with SSID 'xxx'
Authentication with here goes my MAC timed out.
Trying to associate with SSID 'xxx'
Authentication with here goes my MAC timed out.
Trying to associate with SSID 'xxx'
Authentication with here goes my MAC timed out.
. . . "
I replaced wpa_supplicant in /system/bin with original from .81 TeamEos package, but now I can't see my SSID of mobile AP. Wifi Analyzer shows it with "Ad-Hoc" notification on the right, but system Settings menu can't.
How can I connect to my Nokia E52? I tried different settings, open authentication, wep, etc, just don't know what to do. I don't want to use Net over bluetooth.
I'm trying to modify my Asus ME172V tablet so it can access an ad-hoc wi-fi connection.
The best method appears to be replacing the wpa_supplicant file. However when I replaced the original with a file that was modified to enable ad-hoc wi-fi would not turn on.
Is there a wpa_supplicant file that will successfully enable ad-hoc wifi on the ME172V?
Or is there another way I can enable ad-hoc access?
I got a suggestion on another forum (Thanks!) and resolved the copying permission issue by turning off the wi-fi.
Partial solution found - delete this message
My questions in my modified previous post are still pertinent. I can't figure out how to delete this post...
need wpa_supplicant for ME172V w/ad-hoc
Well I've searched and found 3 different wpa-supplicant files that all apparently enable ad-hoc on other devices. Unfortunately on the ME172V wi-fi can't be turned on with any of them.
Anyone know of a wpa_supplicant that enables wi-fi and will work with the ME172V?
I want a tablet with ad-hoc wi-fi as a controller for my music server. If I can't come up with a solution soon I guess I'll just buy a Windows tablet and sell the ME172V.
Hello. I am using Wifi tether for root users for Android (and also barnacle sometimes). These applications create an ad-hoc network so each time I can only connect my macbook with my cellphone. I would like to share the internet connection with more than 1 devices and especially my android tablet. My android tablet ( and other android devices I have ) does not recognize the ad-hoc network so I cannot connect to it at all.
In windows I could possibly use the application "Connectifyme" that would split the wifi in two networks and share the connection through the one.
Is there any way to do this using the macbook? Is there any way in gerenal to do this (even without using the macbook).
Any suggestions?
