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

Not sure if this is the right place for this...
Hi I have a G1 running the TheOfficial TMO DRC83 - US v2.2.1 + Expansion Pack and I can connect to the phone via WIFI tether, but I cannot get to the internet on the laptop that I am connecting from. I tried enabling Access Control and Authorizing the laptop, and I have tried disabling Access Control all together. I have tried connecting to an XP laptop, a Vista laptop, and an Ubuntu laptop. No glory... Help?
Sounds like you aren't using any software, which would be required for tethering.

I don't understand what you mean, I am using Wireless Tether for Root Users (my G1 is properly rooted), and I am trying to browse from Firefox on the laptop... I have also tried pinging a number of addresses. I have a good IP on the laptop, but it seems that the G1 is not forwarding the connection properly.
...scrap that...
misread
try downloading wifi tether. not wireless tether, WIFI TETHER. try this link
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

thanks
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!
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.

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.
I am having trouble using my phone as a ad hoc wifi. My nook sees and connects to the phone but cant connect to the Internet through it. Has anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions? I've been searching high and low but can't find anything.
what phone?
Samsung Captivate. Rooted running 2.2
Fixed. Selected the Nook as a Connected/Authorized client in Wireless Tether and it's working like a charm.
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.
