My dad's workplace uses a F5 Firepass SSL-VPN. He wants to be able to tether his laptop using his captivate, then be able to connect to the VPN so he can work remotely from our cabin. His laptop tethers just fine to his phone, but when he tries to log into the VPN, it hangs for a bit and then fails. Does anybody know how to connect to these kinds of VPNs while tethered?
I have similar problem, using the stock vpn app i cant never get connected to the server, i have check everything is ok, in the desktop or iphone works great. now i'm trying to the with openvpn i get conected but i cant send all my traffic trought the vpn tunnel.

Hey guys so ive tried ever wireless tether app under the sun and none ever seem to work for me.
Im running Cyan's 4.01, PdaNet the wired version works flawlessly for me when i tether it to my computer, however done of the wireless ones EVER work for me, ive tried both aNetshare and the "Wireless Tether for Root" App that is floating around on the forums here, neither have ever worked for me
i have absolutely no problems connecting my computer to my G1 via wifi when using these programs, however the connection is always Peer to Peer and Local only, never internet and it never works
any ideas?
What OS are you trying to tether with?
Ensure your wifi network settings have DHCP set....
ALSO if you're wifi uses a NON-Microsoft Wifi settings software (e.g. Intel's or Broadcom) disable it and use the microsoft stack.
Are you trying to connect via Ad-hoc? Also are you using the WEP encryption? Does it give you any errors or just doesn't seem to connect?
The computer im connecting with is running Vista.
Im not using any form of WEP encryption is 100% open, it has no problems connecting peer to peer but the internet is inaccesible via tethering, it connects fine with no errors but it states local only with no internet access
Also as another side note, i use a program called SwiFTP which runs FTP via wifi so i can transfer file to and from my computer and G1 wirelessly , however that system never works, whenever i go to enable it, it says "Error Opening port, check your network connection" and the program does not work, ive tried changing different ports, i used the default port 2121 and it cannot open it, i also tried other random ones like 23 etc and it can never open a port or seem to work
Are you trying to connect via Ad-Hoc?
No, im using "Wireless Tether for Root Users" app downloaded off this forum
I think that is the problem. When you try to connect to the G1 on your computer, you have to set up the computer to connect via Ad-Hoc, not on the G1.
Not sure of the entire setup process, but go to the control panel and click on set up network connections (or something along that line) somewhere in the options of connection types there should be Ad-Hoc. You will have to enter the network name and confiure the WEP encryption, but it is pretty easy.
You should be able to figure it out from there. Let me know if you have any more problems.
access control option
have you checked the access control settings? if this is enabled, you have to manually allow the machines internet connection.
Hey, I had to apk's fo rthis the signed_andtether_1_52-pre2.apk did not work. The file labeled Signed_andtetehr_1_52.apk works everytime.
Firewall?
Sure your Vista Firewall is on? If so FORCE it off and try again...
Today i forgot my usb data cable at home and found myself desperately looking for an internet connection with my laptop. Ive downloaded 'bernacle wifi tether' , tetherblu and '' wireless tether for root users''.
Neitherr worked for me. In all of those my laptop could see the network those apps produced but could not connect even at maximum signal strenght.
Did anyone ever succeed with wifi tether on the n1?
Edit:rooted with cm 5.0.6
ive used barnacle, its pretty nice
any messages on why it couldnt connect? your laptop support ad-hoc networks?
Sorry for my noobility ..i dont know what is an ad hoc network. I dont receive any errors, it tryes to connect until it times uot saying it couldnt connect or repair the connection of unlnown reasons. Im using vista x64 on an n80x5 assus notebook. Could it be that i need some additional drivers for the n1?
No, you don't need any drivers to connect to WiFi.
Tested WiFi teather for root when downloaded it, works perfectly.
Check your laptop settings, I'd guess that it has absolutely nothing to do with the phone.
Barnacle became my #1 wifi tether program. works evertime. it might be the way you have your laptop setup or something. WiFi teather for root works also.
If you have static ip on your laptop...then none of those will work. Set your laptop to obtain ip automatically...i bet it work then.
Problem solved !
it was indeed a problem with my network adapter's driver.
Works great now!
thank you!
Dears,
I just finished to setup my laptop to be an AccessPoint for my nexus.
I did this creating a new ad-hoc wireless connection.
It works! ...for browsing websites
does not work for market or app web connection...
I configured proxy settings to enable websites browsing.
If I try change proxy settings on my phone, obviously websites browsing stops.
Note I'm inside an office network now and I cannot change or control about network setups.
any idea why android market does not work with my setup?
does market need some "special ports" opened?
help me please....
Just download connectify. It's a program that makes your computer a WiFi hotspot. I use it to get internet on my x 10, and it works flawlessly

eh......
I already tried... bit my network card is not supported by connectify...
The same with VirtualRouter.
The only way I has some success is as described before (ad-hoc network).
Please help me with that market issue...
Could it be that it's blocked by your company? Like can you go to youtube on your pc?
Like i understand you are using proxy to connect the net so http is allowd and all the others are closed.
correct: proxy is only working for http access.
I have troubles also with google sync, gmail, youtube, market etc...
I'm only able to surf the web via browser.
Note that wih my notebook I have access to all youtube... so cannot understand why it works whit notebook but does not work with nexusOne...
maybe notebook and nexus use different protocols or services that are closed by the proxy.
Any idea to make my ad-hoc network fully open?
I'm having trouble getting connectify to work... it loads up and runs fine on my Win7 x64 laptop, but when I try to connect with the N1 it appears to be eternally stuck at the "Obtaining IP Address" stage before it finally times out and the network state is reported as "Unsuccessful". I've tried both pulling the IP from DHCP and manually specifying a static IP address on the correct network, and I have attempted running both Android 2.1 and 2.2.
Even when specifying a static IP, I still get the "Obtaining address..." status before it fails out.
Any thoughts?
for me too: both with ad-hoc connection, Connectify (@home) or VirtualRouter (@home) I have same issue than you.
Sometimes n1 connects the wireless network with no problems, other times it dont connect the network... Dont know the reason. Only I saw that if you delete the ad-hoc network and create a new one it works... It's boring, I know... but works..
also I saw that @home connecting in same mode than in office I was able to navigate market, youtube and all other programs that need an internet connection .
This to confirm that the problem I'm having @office is caused by some LAN restrictions (filters, firewalls and something like this)
Cool, I'll give that a go when I get off work I suppose. I've only got about another week or so here in Afghanistan, but while I'm here the only accessible internet is a wifi access point that passes through a fairly restrictive firewall/proxy before hitting the satellite internet. I'm able to bypass the firewall and proxy if I use an ethernet connection on my laptop (luck of the draw: my room in the tent is the one with all the networking gear ), and was hoping I could use this Connectify or VirtualRouter business to then extend that internet offering to my N1. So far, no luck. Maybe I'll fight with it some more tonight and get somewhere with it.
Off-topic: How's Padova this time of year? I spent about three months up in Aviano back at the end of last summer and fall... absolutely gorgeous country.
Maybe is useful for you to knwo ho I'm able to surf web using browser on my N1 (using win7).
3 modes:
- ad-hoc network (pc-to-n1) directly from network control center of win7
- connectify (using a virtual access point)
- virtual router (same as connectify)
@ home: LAN without filters or restrictions. I'm able to surf web, use youtube player, market etc.
@ work: LAN with filters and restrictions. I'm able to surf web only.
These are my tests. I hope you will have more luck than me.
OT: Padova is great in this period. Weather is hot (25-28°), summer is starting. Unfortunatly in these days we have some rain but our "sunny season" is already started.
I know Aviano, there's a US militay base. Are you a soldier? I'm a fan of the "soldiers world" (I played for a long time a free online game called "America's Army" )
Sorry for OT

Thanks for the info
And no, I'm not a soldier, but I work as a civilian geek/technician/engineer for a US defense contractor that builds air/battlespace control systems - like a glorified Air Traffic Control. I get sent for a few months at a time to different locations that we have our systems to support the soldiers and airmen who use them.
Needless to say, Aviano has been the best assignment yet

If you can use everything @home this isn't a fault of your setup. everything gets blocked by the proxy server. if you really want it you have to talk with the administrator, i really doubt that he will do changes to please you.
for now i think it's impossible to use them.
ok... thanks for the bad news...

I have the same problem (ok, with a Desire). No IP obtained. OS is Win7/64 too.
Did you have any success in the meantime?
I think the market actually uses https:// ... is that set up as well? Even if it is, the phone might reject it because of redirecting certificate issues...
You're probably better off setting up a VPN on your home machine, or some server outside the network. Then VPN to that on your phone for open access (Of course u can buy vpn accounts from various companies too.)
What kind of proxy is it? Socks? http? remember most don't support UDP, and may only support port http or https.
How do you get N1 to see ad-hoc wifi? I tried but wasn't able to using stock froyo...
Heeeeeeeeeelp please!!!
i have installed connectify and the virtual router on my win7 laptop.
i can connect to the new wireless networks created by these softwares but I can't browse the web (no data is received in my Nexus one)
can you please help me?
I have stock froyo FRF91 on my Nexus one
reverse tether
nokia 5000 how to reverse tethering
connectify does not transmit internet signal from PC to CP
Hi,
I have just upgraded mi N1 to froyo with the official update.
I tried the tethering function and it works just fine except for the fact that i am not able to use the cisco VPN client from my laptop when connecting to the internet via tethering.
The VPN session works up to when it is already connected without any error but then it doesn't transfer any data.
Is the traffic filtered somehow? Did anyone find a workaround for this problem?
Thanks in advance

I was using CiscoVPN and now Juniper through N1's tethering, never a problem.
Check the connection - check that you have DNS servers and you can access public servers using ping, etc. From the laptop, I mean.
I finally got it to work.
The strange part is that it works when using WIFI tethering but fails when using USB tehtering.
Gas
Same here.
I plug in my phone and turn on tethering. I can surf the web. I logon to VPN and then it wont let me connect to anything on the VPN. I decided to try turning the phone in to a hotspot, this works, i get connected. I VPN in and poof! i can hit all the servers. ... anyone else run in to something like this.
USB Tether + VPN and I cant hit anything on VPN
Wifi Hotspot + VPN and everything works as it should
Tmobile G2 - Stock
Cisco VPN software
Thanks
I had the same problem using USB tethering.
I found a solution:
- change at the Cisco client software the transport to "IPSec over TCP"
This worked for me fine.
I had the same problem with Hotspot and Cicso VPN, and the change in transport protocol to "IPSec over TCP" fixed it. Thanks.
Hi all,
I have Nexus One with stock rom version 2.3.4,
i'm trying to tether my laptop from my phone (WIFI and USB)
and both doesn't working for me.
i can surf with the phone to anywhere when tethering works
i can also ping my external phone IP from the laptop, but no luck when trying to access websites via my laptop.
anyone here have any tips for me?
Thanks!
this may sound dumb but it works for me, once you are able to ping your phone try disabling the wifi hotspot on your phone and re-enabling it then once your laptop is connected again try pinging a site eg: google.com
