HOWTO: Set up your G1's Wi-Fi (in order to make it actually *work*)

I've received my Dream yesterday and the wi-fi is painfully slow. At first it didn't work at all, so I entered all settings by hand, assigned it a static IP address and other stuff. Then it worked, albeit very slowly. So, here's what you need to do if your wi-fi isn't too fast.
Go to Wi-Fi settings, press Menu and select Advanced Settings. On your computer (if you're using an unix based OS, at least - can some Windows guru help me out with this?), get to a terminal emulator and type:
Code:
ifconfig en1
This should give you output like this:
Code:
Wiktoria:~ Nekkoru$ ifconfig en1
en1: flags=8863<UP,BROADCAST,SMART,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ether 00:1c:b3:bd:b9:cb
inet6 fe80::21c:b3ff:febd:b9cb%en1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
inet 192.168.55.102 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.55.255
media: <unknown subtype>
status: active
Wiktoria:~ Nekkoru$ [CODE]
The IP address after inet (192.168.55.102 in my case) is what you're after. On your phone, enter your IP address as the IP adress you got, with the last block changed to anything that's not being used on your network. I assigned 192.168.55.69 to my phone, because it's easy to remember and it's kind of childish.
Now, your "Gateway" should be your router's IP address. Your router's IP should be specified in it's manual - or your system settings. Your subnet mask should always be 255.255.255.0.
We need your DNS settings now - this is where most of us screw up and this is what you need to fix the most. Go back to your computer's terminal and type in
[CODE]dig
Look at the bottom. You're interested in a line that says "SERVER: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx". That's your primary, first DNS. If you give that to your phone, your wi-fi should work way faster. Set it up as the second DNS as well, unless you know a better DNS server than your ISP's (anyone?).
I'm sorry this got so complicated, but that's the best way to set up your G1's internet if it gives you any trouble. I hope I helped somewhat.

Can you post a track?

Whichever other settings you use, you will definitely also want to use the closest ntp time server pool in the gps.conf file. By default this is set to north-america.pool.ntp.org, so for most of the world, this is not the most optimal time server to use (internet latency introduces jitter into the accuracy of the time supplied).
You certainly can't do any harm changing this to your own continent, or even better your own country!
I use uk.pool.ntp.org here in the UK.
FasterFix program (from XDA developer) makes it easier to change the gps.conf file for you.

Thx for the reply,
I am from holland so what exactly i need to change?
Best regards

This thread hopefully explains it and gives you the software to make the changes a doddle.
Background on what it does, and how to pick a better ntp pool to use is in this post (and the one after) in that thread.
Any questions are probably best asked in that thread to keep this one clean.

I change the setting in my gps.conf to: "fr.pool.ntp.org" for France with FasterFix app.
I use DocRom JPU v3.0.
That's give me the best results than ever.
Hope that's help you a little : )

Thx,
I wil try it with different gps.config this week.

[Q] OpenVPN Problems with Droid 3

Tried setting up OpenVPN with rooted Steel Droid and it
connects but doesn't route traffic over the browser.
Wondering if I need to set routing tables differently for it to work since these custom kernels don't work on Droid 3.
Using SSL with tun.ko enabled.
OpenVPN binary set to /system/xbin/openvpn and configurations in /sdcard/openvpn.
Done a who.is and it still comes back with Verizon IP address.
Any suggestions or possibly a routing table example?

Did you read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271536

I'm having the exact same problem. OpenVPN connects, but no traffic goes through VPN..

Paste your outpout of
ip route
ip addr
so we can figure it out what is happening.

Here is the output when OpenVPN is connected:

My OpenVPN server IP is 98.145.116.191, yet when I go to whatismyip.com on my phone it is still 174.255.162.200.
Here is my OpenVPN server config
Code:
port 5555
dev tun
proto tcp
comp-lzo
float
keepalive 10 60
ping-timer-rem
resolv-retry 60
status openvpn-status.txt
ca ca.crt

My client config
Code:

proto tcp

dev tun
float
ping-timer-rem
resolv-retry infinite
route-gateway 10.10.0.1
dhcp-option DNS 10.10.0.1
keepalive 10 120
ca ca.crt
cert client1.crt
key client1.key

I confess, I'm a little bit surprised by your output. ifconfig seems to have worked, and there is a host route to your VPN server, which is good, too.
However the default route didn't switch.
Could you please try the following, as root on command line:
route add -net 0.0.0.0/1 dev tun0
route add -net 128.0.0.0/1 dev tun0
Does this help?
BTW, even if this works, I guess you will run into MTU issues. Add something like "mssfix 1200" to your openvpn config.

It's saying invalid argument when I try both of those. Should I be using those IPs?
Sorry, I'm mostly clueless with this networking..

Resurrect from the dead.
I don't mean to resurrect this but I still can't get OpenVPN. I was wondering if anybody knew if a custom TUN.ko was still needed but the locked bootloader prohibited this still.
On another note I was hoping I could just reconfigure the iptables or iproute from the Droid 3 source and somehow use AOKP CM9 build to try this out. OpenVPN wasn't listed in the CM9 VPN listings but didn't know if it were possible to change that or revert to Stock Rom and go from there.

OpenVPN
I am running Maverick ROM 3.5 (based on stock firmware system files) and something really strange is happening.
I am able to connect to my openvpn server and i am able to access the file shares on the network and of course copy, delete or upload files. I am also able to connect to ssh server. BUT i cannot connect to any http servers inside to remote network !!!
Its really weird as i know my openvpn conf files are fine (i was using the same files with an openvpn client to a different phone and i was able to access the http servers from there.)

[TUT]Connect to PC`s WIFI hotspot using Virtual Router.

Hello. I was searching on google how to connect my android to my PC`s shared Internet over Virtual Router.
I wanted to share this method because as I read there were many problems connecting to Virtual Router (works only on Windows 7 with Hosted network support).
Sorry, cannot post any links to application or sources as I have no access to that option.
Do not know if this will work for you but it worked for me. It is worth a try.
1. So, first step is to verify that your WiFi card is supported (search google - "virtual router supported devices" and at second result you can check that).
2. If you do not have supported device, sorry, can not help you. But if you have, then download Virtual Router manager v0.9 BETA application and run it. If you cannot start Virtual Router follow all next steps. But if you can start it and you can connect with your android device to Virtual Router then go straight to the step no. 10.
3. Open command prompt with Administrator privileges. (Windows button + R)
4. Enter the following command: netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=Test key=YOUR PASSWORD GOES HERE
Keep CMD window open as you will need it later (This will create a wireless access-point with SSID of “Test” Windows-7-Wifi-Setup)
5. Open the Networks and Sharing Center, then Change adapter settings.
Notice that there is a new "adapter" with labels:
Wireless Network Connection (may have some number at the end)
Test
Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter
6. Right mouse click on adapter with what are you using internet on your PC and select Properties.
7. At the Sharing tab tick both boxes and at Home network connection drop-down menu select adapter which you created at step no. 4 (Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter).
8. After you have done these steps, go back at CMD and run this command: netsh wlan start hostednetwork.
This will start Virtual Router as well (if you left it running at step no.2). If you closed it then start Virtual Router and click on Start.
9. Now try to connect with your android device to Virtual Router.
10. Check if you have an internet connection by going on web. If you can connect and have internet connection then you are lucky and that is it for you. But if you can connect to Virtual Router but do not have internet access then follow these last steps.
11. On Windows, the Networks and Sharing Center, then Change adapter settings.
Double click on Microsoft Virtual WiFi Minispot Adapter and click on Details.
From there you will need this information: IPv4 Address and IPv4 Subnet Mask
12. (Note - you have to be connected to Virtual Router because I did that ant that was the way it worked for me) On android device go to Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Wi-Fi Settings. Press Menu button and go to Advanced.
Note the IP adress which Virtual Router have provided to you.
12.1. Tick Use static IP
12.2. In IP address enter the address which Virtual Router had provided to you.
12.3. In Gateway enter IPv4 Address from step no. 11.
12.4. In Netmask enter digits from IPv4 Subnet Mask (255.255.255.0)
12.5. In DNS 1 enter 8.8.8.8 and in DNS 2 enter 8.8.4.4 (those are Google Public DNS).
12.6. Press Menu button and select Save.
Now you can check if you have a internet connection.
I hope this will work for you as it is working for me.
If this helped you, do not be shy to click on Thanks
Credits for steps 3. - 8. goes to user_01 from virtualrouter.codeplex.com
and
Credits for steps 11. - 12. goes to lorenz from londatiga.com.
Of course, these steps are not just copy-paste, I wrote them going through those steps.
Thanks and your welcome.

I tried but it doesn't create a new adapter called "Test"

SSID will be called "Test". Adapter will be called Wireless Network Connection (may have some number at the end)

[Q] (Problem) Make Raspberry pi share internet via Ethernet (Filter)

Greetings,
I use Raspbian.
I come over here, I'm a beginner, and I would like to ask for help on an issue (draft) I'm doing.
Explained below:
First of all I have Raspbian in my Raspberry Pi, then I want to do is set this as a network node to monitor through "dumpcap" packets that pass through my network, I've done I installed everything necessary in fact I've already running great, I've done through a Wireless (USB) adapter from functioning as "Access Point" wireless (so will download the files to be saved), I've come this far following this tutorial: (Photo Attached) and another pair.
The fact is that since I could configure all my peripherals, the problem lies in the following:
I need to connect from my local home router or from the Internet source (ADSL Modem), through an Ethernet cable to my Raspberry Pi (which work to record all packets My network traffic by "dumpcap") it is noteworthy that this will have perfectly configured, then I need through another Ethernet cable which my computer (PC) will be connected by a transformer USB-> Ethernet (attached reference picture), for example, that I have done and the only mistake that happens to me is that my PC does not receive Internet remains limited, in theory I need to do is that the Raspberry Pi function as a filter through which to capture packets of dumpcap store in some files (this is already done), but then the computer will connect by USB-port Ethernet continues to have internet and work perfectly as if connecting from the ADSL modem to the PC directly.
Could anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
