Hi
I have a VPN connection for my pc which I use it to connect to internet, I want to know if its possible to setup this VPN for my windows mobile ?
I have tried the VPN connection on windows mobile but get errors like invalid username password or connection problem ...
Regards
I downloaded this program called mhotspot to make my laptop a Wifi Hotspot and shared my dial-up connection with the hotspot.
Now when i connect to the hotspot, it disconnects and halts at "Obtaining IP Address".
To resolve this, i added Static IP address. This fixed the above problem.
Now the wifi gets connected, but when i try browsing in my phone, it does not show up the webpage.
Is there any way to connect my wifi hotspot to the phone?
Phone: HTC Explorer (Pico)
Android: 2.3.5 Gingerbread

From the mhotspot website:
My 'android device' won't connect to the hotspot

However, at the same that website looks REALLY sketchy. Ridiculously poor English and a horrible site layout are both bad signs. On top of that, if you're running Windows or Linux (or probably even Mac) then you can create an ad-hoc network (i.e. WiFi hotspot) without any third-party software. I'd get rid of that mhotspot program as fast as you can.

I created an ad-hoc network, but my phone doesn't detect it at all.
As far as i remember stock Android can't connect to wifi ad-hoc hotspot. Only custom roms like Cyanogenmod can do it You should create an Access Point connection using program called Connectify ( if you use Windows 7).

Installed connectify, but the same problem persists. I can connect to the network but internet is unavailable.

I think I remember this being a common problem with the stock soft, with CM it works perfectly.
So either you switch or you need to use an app for this...
Have you set up AP like here in attachment? On my phone works perfectly.
No internet

Is the problem solved?
I'm facing the same issue. I tried many options in all it gets connected but not getting internet.
Problem solved using Connectify and static IP.

I had the same problem using Mhotspot & trying to connect my Samsung Android phone to it. Mhotspot is a credible & very popular software ranked number 1 by CNET so don't worry. It's lightweight & free. The "obtaining ip adress" problem may occur due to the limitation cause by your firewall. I disabled my default windows firewall. You can simply add an exception for mhotspot in your firewall settings or disable it since windows firewall is useless anyway. That solved the problem for me.
Hi , so after I update my Lumia 710 , I got the new option of internet sharing , I tried it with a BlackBerry device and it just worked fine , on my laptop I tried to connect and the OS told me that I should turn on DHCP for Wireless networks , I did that and I just got connected and everything , my Windows7 network and sharing center shows me connected to the internet via this network , BUT still no internet access.
and ideas ?
thanks in advance

could be your provider? if not make sure you add the connection to your home network and not public or work.
Thanks for the reply,I made sure it is home network,but what do you mean by provider,can my provider block me from accessing the 3G connection from my laptop ? People used to wire their old mobiles to work as modems to connect,why would this be different ?, i think lm missing something obvious here.
Wired tethering (where the phone acts as a cellular modem for the PC) and wifi tethering (where the phone acts as a WiFi access point) are different, and require different software. The software for the latter will frequently include checks to see if your mobile operator permits tethering. USB modem tethering works differently and, assuming you configure the PC to connect in the ame way as the phone, is essentially indistinguishable.
Note that all of the gen1 Windows phones could also do USB tethering, although it was unofficial and sometimes a bit of a hack. I don't know if the Lumias have such a hack or not, but if they do, it should work even if the WiFi tethering doesn't.
Alternatively, since you're on a 710, you could (if you want) install a custom ROM. This would enable you to use WiFi tethering without the operator check, among many other cool hacks. Nobody has yet found a way to do high-privilege hacks on a stock Lumia ROM, though.
Also, in what way does your Internet connection not work? Do you receive an IP address? A DNS server? If you type "ipconfig /all" into the command line, what output do you get? (Please, just the lines about your wireless network adapter. Alternatively, do "ipconfig /all > ipconfig.txt" to produce a text file, and then attach that to your post here.) If you type "ping google.com" does that work?
Thanks for the informative reply , it seems like it needed a restart for ping to work , Pinged Google successfully, for the browser it was my fault , I had an old proxy settings enabled , I just had to removed it and I'm posting here now using this exact connection
Could someone/anyone please help me with seting up a ad-hoc wifi ftp server .
I have the ftp server and I think I will be able to set that part up ok ,

network setup .Any sugestions on what program to use would help a lot .
