Usin your Diamond as a wireless adapter for your PC? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

As the title reads...
Is it possible to cennect your Diamond to your PC via USB or BT, and then somehow bridge that connection so that your PC uses the phones Wi-Fi?
I'm kinda stuck, and need Internet for my PC, which doesn't have Wi-Fi, and my Hotel doesn't have a LAN jack in my room. Grrrrrr!!
Thanks in advance!

It is mentioned "Wifi to USB - basically the pda acts as a wireless network card for the PC", amongst many other things.

internet through PC

Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to access the internet connection on my PC through the kaiser?
J
If you mean access your pc's web connection with your kaiser then simply use activesync via BT or USB.
If you mean access the kaiser's connection with your pc, then use Internet Connection Sharing on the device, either with USB or BT PAN.

Hi unwired,
I meant the first case, accessing PC's web connection.
So there is a way to do it through USB? how do I do this? can't find any info on this...
enable ICS on your lan/wireless network on your computer, plug the kaiser in via USB, and it should automatically have internet.
PC ActiveSync - in connection setings allow internet access and select profile internet.
Thanks! I will give it a try

I had the same thing happen to me a while back and all I done was get 3 Metres of CAT5 Network cable and wrapped about 2 metres of it round my 5 iron and plugged into my machine, worked fine.
.G.
your is surely a fine reply..but the problem is that i'd need about 15m of cable -_-
Just start internet connection sharing with your device connected to the WiFi and hooked up to your laptop using USB?
He wants to use his home wifi network not his mobile broadband / data. It's different!
So is there a solution to use your diamond as a wifi dongle?

Kaiser as wlan router using PC-conection

Is it possible to use the Kaiser as wlan-router? I got a cablemodem for my computer. Now when I connect Kaiser via USB I can use the connection.
Can I share this connection via wifi of the Kaiser? (wifi is not available when connected to usb!)
Look for WMWIFIROUTER
Thanks a lot, thats it!
I heard of the prog brefore, but didnĀ“t that it has so many features.
I purchased Walking Wifi Hotspot. Works good and has all the features that you could need.

So those allow you to use your phone as a wireless bridge with your PC? I thought it only used the cell data connection.

Internet sharing

Hi,
i have a poorly laptop awaiting repair. no wifi or lan working.
as a temp measure, i can connect my kaiser to the internet via my wireless router.
i can then connect the kaiser to the laptop with usb, but how do i share the connection?
only options using internet sharing on windows mobile are through gprs, which is no good.
laptop has windows 7.
why dont you DL the WLAN drivers for your laptop on your tilt. then copy that to your laptop and get your wifi working instead?
thanks hispanomlz, but like i said, laptop networking is broken awaiting repair
i have all the drivers.
i want to use my kaiser as the modem, but with it connected to my router wirelesly and to the laptop via usb.
i.e wireless modem -> kaiser wireless -> kaiser usb to laptop, then laptop shares the connection
just checked in the networking forum, and i think i need wmwifirouter

will give that a try later

WMWifirouter turns your phone into a wireless router. If your wireless isn't working on your computer then it will not work with wmwifirouter..
I don't think you can connect to wifi and then internet share the connection. It will only work on the phones cellular data.
well, wmwifirouter is the dogs wotsits.
worked like a treat.
connect phone wifi to my wireless router.
connect phone to laptop with usb.
click on wmwifirouter->wifi to usb and it disconnects activesync and connects laptop to internet.
job done.
well, still have to get the laptop repaired sometime though
wow, I sure didn't know it worked backwards.

Sharing PC connection over WiFi

Hello, I googled around, but i can't seem to find an app for my needs.
I have a PC with Internet connection and a laptop. So i want to use the phone's wifi as a card for the pc, which to share my connection over the wifi and connect the laptop. Is there an app for that?
It should look like this:
Internet -> PC -(usb)>phone - (wifi)> laptop
there is no app for that and it would not work will as the phone does not have the prcessing power to maintain two different syncs at the the same time.
Not to mention the fact the your battery will be drained in no time flat because of the heavy wifi use as well as drawing on the processor to handle such a load.
just buy a router
Yea i thought of that but just checking, anyway I'm in need of a router
10x all

what about WMWifi http://global.wmwifirouter.com/features/
# Support for sharing your cellular data connection over Bluetooth and USB
# Support for sharing your Wi-Fi connection to USB, and vice versa
# Support for sharing your WiMAX connection to USB and Bluetooth
Shouldn't that just work via Internet Sharing? If you connect the phone's Wifi and turn off Data... would that work? Then connect the PC to the phone by USB or Bluetooth.
