Sharing tethered internet connection

I live in the sticks and the evdo on my phone is the only high speed internet connection available.
I have no trouble using the ICS to tether to a computer. What I want to do is tether and then share that connection with other computers on the network. When I go to network connections and right click on the windows mobile internet sharing device icon and go through and choose to share the connection with other computers on the network it tells me that the ip address required for internet connection sharing is already in use.
I am guessing that it needs 192.168.0.1 for the network internet connection sharing to work, and that the phone (touch pro) is assigning it to itself when I start ICS.
Anybody have any idea how to make this work?
Thanks

Did you add the mac-address of your Sensation to the MAC -table of the router as "allowed'?

No,because the routers is beyond my control. I'm sure that wifi is ok and i can access the webpage by another device without doing anything. Certainly i need to input the password.
And thank you for your reply.

its a router issue....plz disable DHCP on router ... then use NAT and put a seprate static ip for sensation... this happens if u use automatic ip config by ur ISP....nothing wrong with the fone...my frnd had same issue and i configured his router from here via team viewer and now it rocks.... get router configured...

I'm amazed at your knowledge of wireless technologies but please explain me why is it a router issue if 2 of my laptops, 2 towers and 2 of my phones (along with multiple guests' phones) have no problem accessing content on my wireless network but my Sensation throws a fit every time it's I try to connect?
Thank you in advance.

well all the routers have config options..... they transmit wireless in a particular ip range depending upon the configuration... ur devices have enrolled themselves on all possible empty slots in ip range and sensation is not able to coz it must b out of the ip range now...possibly u must have used many wireless devices but even after u disable them the temp ip auto assigned stays... so except for new devices old ones will never have problem.... jst disable dhcp in config page of router and enable nat.....if it does nt work add me on gtalk [email protected] and i'll configure ur router via team viewer....

Phone > PC > WIFI Router

Hi
I have already asked this before but may have asked it in a mad way, maybe in wrong place who knows this site is freaking massive
I have a HTC Sensation on 3 mobile One Plan and use this phone to give me and my partner internet using the WIFI Hotspot
As I am coming from broadband from good ole Richard I have 4 WIFI routers in several room in my house all have connection to my main PC which is my media server
Only problem is when we are on the internet we dont have access to this server we have to disconnect and connect to one of the WIFI routers
So what I would like to do is connect the phone to a PC using USB and use the PC as a proxy server, this would then be connected to one of the WIFI routers, this would then have all my WIFI routers giving out the internet
Is this possible??
Any info would be awesome
Thanks
Bump!! Bump!! Bump!!
well to make this work you would need use the wifi hotspot to connect to your server, from there bridge your wifi connection of the server to the hardwire connection of your pc. itll take some reconfiguring of your ip scheme to make it all work but if you know what your doing its not too bad. Also turn on all upnp. (universal plug and play) it will allow you to see all devices on the network without having to have the ip addresses.

Thats the only way. But upnp MUST be enabled.
Good luck!

Reverse tethering using laptops wifi and usb question

I have a GT-p3113 7.0 running 4.1.1 stock and rooted. I have been trying to connect to my laptops hotspot using wifi. I can create the connection and connect with an IP, however no shared internet. I used the CMD prompt to create the hostednetwork then share my lan connection.
> netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid="name of connection" key="password"
Share the connection from setting in the control panel then start it up.
>netsh wlan start hostednetwork
I can connect with an assigned IP but no internet.
So... while I am "connected" I used the USB reverse tether app with the tunnel local app and connect to the internet. and yes I can no connect to Gplay and download from most app sites with no problem because I do have an active wifi connection... just not using it to get to the site..
Can't use https , not sure why yet. or if it is even possible.
But I would like to be able to use my wifi connection if at all possible... does anyone know a way to do this? I do not want to use Conectify as it tells me to unistall my vzaccess ( I can't ) I have a 4g wireless card for my laptop. also tried virtual router, same thing.. connects, gets ip, but no internet. Has anybody been able to get around this? or do you think it is just my work network. I want to use this when I travel an am in a hotel but don't want to carry around another piece of hardware for a hotspot.
Thanks

Wireless networks and mobile data

Does anyone know of a way to connect to a wireless network that has no internet access and continue to use your mobile data for internet access? It has to be possible if you can tether and make your phone an access point while also keeping your mobile data on. I tried to connect to my wireless network and configure a static IP address but it won't let you unless you enter a gateway address. I thought I could just do that as a workaround but nope..
