AFAIK you cant. But if you have WIndows 7 and wifi on our PC you can use a program like Connectify to allow the phone to connect via WIFI.
Use that in work and works fine.

Oops. For clarity, Connectify runs on the PC and turns in into a WIFI hotspot that any device can connect to.

I know that, what I am asking is what ROM do you have on your SGS, because I on Darky 9.0 can't connect using Connectify?

Sorry. Misunderstood. Doc's kitchen with speedmod.
Dont understand why it would not connect with another ROM if WIFI is working generally

Did you have to do anything manually say static IP or did you just input WPA2 key and that's it?

TBH after setting it up on my PC my phone just found it, entered the key and that was that.
There is another program that I tried called Virtual Router but I didnt like it as much as connectify.
Alernatively, you can try setting it up in Windows

Revisiting this as after I posted had problems that my SGS wouldnt connect. Fiddled around a bit and could not fix it. On buying a cheapo Archos 70 tablet tried to connect with the same errors and looking through the Windows logs came across some errors. Turns out, for me anyway, that it's a known Internet Connection Sharing problem in WIndows, not the android devices. Easy fix
Are you using Internet Connection Sharing? Most user do not use or need this. Shut it off in Network Properties.
If still no luck try rebuilding the tcp/ip stack:
1. Click on Start button.
2. Type Cmd in the Start Search text box.
3. Press Ctrl-Shift-Enter keyboard shortcut to run Command Prompt as Administrator. Allow elevation request.
4. Type netsh winsock reset in the Command Prompt shell, and then press the Enter key.
5. Restart the computer.

S730-Notebook with Vista-No internet

I have a notebook, with MS Vista, and with mobile internet (pcmcia card). A tried to connect internet via s730 through mobile device center, but i can't.
I tried with WI-FI: connect to my notebook (ad hoc connection) but i can't use internet.
I tried it with free hotspot and it works.
I don't understand. What can i do?
How are you trying to get online?
You want the s730 do connect to your data network and share that? Or do you want to dial it into the internet (someone got that working on here) or are you connected through your notebook already and want to share that to your s730?

I've never been able to get this to work, I don't even know if you can or not.
I am confused.
Do you want your s730 to get on the Internet by connecting to your laptop? Can you just use a usb cable then you can use internet connection through laptop onto phone.
If I understand you correctly your laptop is what is online and you want it to pass the connection onto your phone through the wifi?
If thats the case that you just need to enable ICS on your laptop. It will be under your menu settings, I havnt messed around with vista's network settings so I cannot tell you quite what it looks like. Possibly a check box or a protocol to install. But once you install Internet Connection Sharing your computer should pass the connection out.

I have this working on my machine with my 730. Often you might need to repair the network connection to your phone from the network connection control panel as it sometimes loses it's IP address.
I also found that I needed to do some work in OneCare which I use as an AntiVirus and Firewall as this was blocking access to the Mobile Device Center.
hope this helps

connect XDAII to my dsl using usb...

please help me...
i want to use internet on my himalaya....
and i dont want to use gprs(its expensive here in philppines)
i dont have bluetooth on my pc
i dont have wifi also
but i have my desktop pc connected to dsl
my only option is via usb....
please tell me how can i do it...
its very easy, connect your Himalaya via USB to your Pc, right click on the small Active Sync icon in ur taskbar (in Pc) and goto Options or maybe its Connection Settings, after that select Allow... (tick both of the options in the end) and click ok..reconnect and ur done
still it doesnt work...
sir ather have already tried it?
should i put any settingson xda II?
what should be there settings?
nope no settings, just connect your himalaya and ur done, ok try this..right click on your "Network Places" icon on your XP and click Properties, you'll see the list of available LAN Cards, check to see if there is a Network card named "Windows Mobile.." if u can see that, then it means ur connected
yes... there is windows mobile on my network
is it your home pc you are trying to connect USB to? or is it an office pc?
if it is your home PC, you should not have any problems once your XDA is connected by cable and activesync to your PC. However, if it is your office computer, it will be another story, yes you can connect to your office computer via activesync, but the internet connection in your office may be domain-controlled, meaning, for none members of domain, internet access is restricted.
i have a very nice setup at home which you could follow:
1. buy a cheap wifi card for your XDA (i have a spectec wifi card bought at 2,250 pesos)
2. buy a cheap wifi router (i bought one from CDR king at 1350 pesos only)
3. Connect your wireless router to your DSL modem/router, setup your router.
4. Install the drivers for your wifi card in your XDA and insert the card.
5. Look for your WIFI router from connections-network cards then connect.
6. You can now SURF the internet using your XDA in any portion of your house and even outside.

Hi eveyone, I'm new here.

Share internet through USB

How can i share my internet from my PC through the USB cable, so to get connected on my kaiser? Any ideas?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...-up, Wi-Fi, using as modems, peer-to-peer etc.
if you mean getting internet on your computer by using the pda as modem
if you mean getting your computers internet on your pda then
when you're connected to activesync you got the same network
as the pc on your pda
if it don't work one of 2 things can be the cause
your pc block the connection because of the way you set your
pc up
or
you havent gon to
settings->connection-connection->advanced-select network
and picked [my homenetwork] or what it's called in your rom
in the dropdownbox
but use [my isp] or what it's called in your rom
as the only network connection

I'm not sure if this is correct as don't use skype but am guessin it will need a IP address to which if you are sharing the internet via USB then it wont have. "in the a typical sense"
Think Skyfire is the same principle.

You can make wifi hotspot (if you have wifi) from your pc by Connectify.
oh, i have to make a wifi access point in my laptop then coonect via phone the internet shares..?
or u talking about a option in the phone which named wifi hotspot .??
I forget the steps in Windows XP, but for Windows 7 go to the
-Network and Sharing Center
-Set up a new connection or network
-Set up a wireless adhoc (computer to computer) network
and follow the steps to setting up the connection. Then, at the last step, enable internet sharing. It'll let other computers, or, well, anything that can access a wireless network connect to your PC. Secure it with a password if you want to be safe.
Notes: Some devices will not be able to connect. There may be a software bug or they've not been designed to work with adhoc networks. I'm not sure if the laptop can connect to an alternative wireless network while it's hosting an adhoc network. If you want to share internet, you may need to be plugged directly in with an Ethernet cable.
Yeah my internet connection is from my lan..
but my phone don't detect my network which created from laptop, what's the problem..?
How is this is Nexus one Q&A? This is not even android related lol

You're probably creating it using the way described above, ad-hoc network setup. Android by default doesn't recognize ad-hoc networks. Some custom ROMs solve this issue, but stock setup won't allow you to see the ad-hoc network. Use Connectify.
Thank u very much but unfortunately this only works in 7, i have vista now....

Sorry, I've been using CyanMod for too long I can never remember if it's supported by default or not.
To the OP, sorry if I've caused any inconveniences.
i'm using connectify now, but still my phone can't find the network, waht should i do??????
Did you set your network to Infrastructure? Also make the SSID visible, do not hide it.
i'm using v2 & i can't see such setting that u said, where can i find them to change..?
IF you have a windows 7 PC, i advise you to use conectify or virtual rooter. You can also follow the instructions in the following link - http://www.technospot.net/blogs/how-to-enable-windows-7-virtual-wifi/ - it will enable in your windows 7 pc a virtual ap). Hope it helps you

[Q] How To Install Reverse Tethering?

how do i install reverse tethering on my unrooted galaxy note?
pls consider me as a computer ignorant dummy and give a step by step guide!
What exactly you mean by reverse tethering?

I think he means providing the Note with an internet connection via Bluetooth or USB instead? Maybe?
OP, isn't just connecting your Note to WiFi the same thing as "reverse" tethering?
Now, if you're talking about sharing a wired internet connection from your computer to your Note without a WiFi access point around, you can do that from your PC with internet connection sharing. Essentially turning your PC's WiFi into an AP.
Is this what you're talking about?
There is a software called Connectify for Windows 7 for reverse tethering via Wi-fi.
Anyone knows if there is something similar for Windows XP?

can u please elaborate how u did it?
Connectify creates a wireless hotspot on your laptop (or wifi enabled desktop) that can then be used as a regular wifi hotspot. There are many free apps that do this too, but Connectify works best for me. Search for "virtual router" if you're looking for freeware.
If you don't have access to Wifi, then this tool here might be your only hope :

Yes, it only works on a rooted device, and if you still don't want to root, the same guy has a method to make it work without root too. Only that it's a little more contrived. There you go : http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/191930/Android-Usb-Port-Forwarding

For reverse tethering on XP machines (if u don't already have a separate physical wifi router), you will have to create ad hoc network. So try this to set your machine as a HotSpot and connect your G-NOTE with this hotspot as you would to a typical wifi network:
On you XP machine, Go into Control panel
Open “Network Connections”
Right click on “Wireless Connection” and click on “Properties”
Click on the “Wireless Networks” tab and select the check-box which says “Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings”
Under “Preferred networks” click “Add”
Type a name in “Network name” text box
Select “Shared” from the options under “Network Authentication”
Under Data encryption select “WEP” and type in your password in “Network Key” field and now click “OK”
Now the new HotSpot should show in the list of preferred networks.
Click on the “Advance” button and select “Computer-to-computer (ad hoc) networks only” and press close
Hit “OK”.
Now, you need to share the wired internet connection (LAN) so that your Galaxy Note now can access the internet connection through this HotSpot you just created.
For this, Go to local Area Connections, right click it and select properties
Go to the “Advanced” tab and under Internet Connection Sharing check the box which says “Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection” and make sure the box under that is NOT selected so that no one can disable the network remotely.
Hit “OK”
You are done. Now connect your Galaxy Note using your XP machine as a hotspot.
Enjoy...

Yes!!! using connectify, it is so very easy!!!!!
use connectify on your pc which will convert your dsl connection into wireless hotspot. the all u need is wlan card in ur pc+connectify software
Hi I have windows 7 and I tried using connectify but unfortunately the broadband internet that I have uses a wireless connection. This wireless connection dosn't have internet access but you have to be connected to it to use the broadband. Is there any way to get around this?
