[Q] How to enable Ad hoc wi-fi connections support? - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I just wanted to know if there's any way to connect to ad hoc wi-fi networks (created on a computer running Linux, Windows or Mac Os X) from a rooted Moto G.
I know that most Android devices have this feature disabled by default (they don't even show the SSID in the network manager list). I've founded some workarounds for other devices that I still didn't try on the Moto G. They modify some code on the Android system (or use an specific app that does the same changes) or suggest the use of Custom Roms.
Does anybody know if there's any chance to do it without using Connectify or other similar apps? Is there a Rom for the Moto G with this feature enabled?
Thanks!

[Q] How to enable ad hoc wi-fi in ICS?

Hi
I'm trying to use the internet connection from my ubuntu on my Android devices. When I create a new ad hoc wireless network in ubuntu, it shows up on my tablet (Asus SL101) running Android 3.2.1 but it doesn't show up on my Nexus S running latest CyanogenMod 9 nightly.
I know this has something to do with the wpa_supplicant. What do I have to change to enable ad hoc networks on my phone with ICS?
I've found a few solutions but they are made for Gingerbread...

Dear friends
I have samsung galaxy tab android and another android phone from spice mobile india.I want to tether this two devices.Can any one show me the light please.i dont know if the indian android phone has built in wifi hot spot system.
wifi tether
If you have rooted your phone you could give the app wifi tether a try, I've been able to connect a couple of devices with it.
Tethering
Hi,
this should not be complicated. On the android phone setup the wifi hot spot and this will simply be seen as a wifi router by the tablet. It actually does not matter what devices or operating system you are using on the client side.
Cheers,
Checklist
Not obviously for all. To use wifi hotspot, need to - enable data 3G/H (or 2G) on the rooted device
- enable wifi hotspot tethering on the rooted device (by an apps or an internal function)
- get the password and the name of the hotspot and write it on a paper
- on the client device, connect to the hotspot and write the password
- done
If your phone havent native tether you can install wifi tether from play store

[Q] Is there a way to enable android hotspot without tethering

Hello all,
I am looking for a way to run my android as a wireless router (not as an access point or a tether).
I am putting together a distributed app with components running on multiple devices. It works fine when I have the Wi-Fi enabled on my android and I have a wi-fi router to connect to, but I need to run this where I won't necessarily have the wi-fi router available.
Basically, I want to run a private network using my android as both my core app, and as a wifi-router/dhcp server, without allowing devices that connect to my android to have access to the internet through my device.
I've seen many apps and threads that all cover how to use the built-in access point, or how to configure the device as a hotspot, but these all discuss tethering and how to get past the limits (or snooping) of your provider and not how to set up a private network.
Is there a way, or an existing app that will allow me to set up a private network as I describe? If not, is there something I can do within my server code to enable the Access Point and disable Tethering at the same time?
Thanks in Advance
F.F.

[Completed] How do I tether from a phone to a tablet

My Dad wants to be able to tether his tablet to his phone using BT or Wi-Fi (BT is probably better as it uses less battery I think), so that when he's in the car he can use the phone's mobile data to get traffic updates for his SatNav apps on the tablet, which doesn't support mobile data.
I believe that tethering is frowned on by mobile providers but could I use a VPN or Tor (Orbot) to encrypt all the data traffic from the phone, so that the provider can't tell if it's originating from the phone itself or a tethered device?
Both devices run AfWall+, so what service/app on each device would I need to create rules for? I don't think AfWall+ has any options for managing BT access, only LAN, WiFi, Data (on devices that support that) and VPN.
The tablet is a Sero 7 Pro running 4.2.1 and the phone is a Huawei G300 running Gingerbread, although I'm trying to persuade my Dad to buy a Moto G 2014 DS like mine, as he does need to use two SIMs.
On my Lenovo S8-50 tablet, when I pair it to my phone it has a tickbox for "Use this connection for Internet" but if I pair it to my Moto G it just unticks itself when I try and enable it. The Sero 7 Pro doesn't even have this option, so I can't try it on that.

I am currently using VPNhotspot https://github.com/Mygod/VPNHotspot to share the vpn connection running on my mobile (protonvpn) to my pc which is connected to my mobiles hotspot. (basically sharing vpn to all devices connected to mobile's hotspot)
My question is: How can I share any form of adblock service running on my mobile to other devices connected to the mobile's hotspot.
any guidance is appreciated.
(i cannot use dns dns.adblock.com as changing to custom dns is not present in android 8.1)
