How to share 3G Internet over WiFi

thanks for the info abe…this will come handy if the need arises.

:-)

This is real great. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Abe!

Ohh how about that??

Oh my windows vista failed to set up this sharing option.

Thanks Abe! Trivia: Did you know? Abraham Lincoln also got the same nickname (Abe). Wild guess! @Abe did your parents got the name after Abraham Lincoln? Just curious! LOL

Thanks Abe, Great story!

You site is very informative. Everyday I always read your articles and it helps me a lot.

Really helpful, thanks Abe!

Can this be done when the PC that has connection to ther internet is running WinXP?

thanks i will try this one

@abe – great info. I’ve long wanted to post an internet sharing how-to on XP but I can’t because I use a Mac. I don’t have to anymore. Link na lang kita. :D

@jojo – unfortunately, windows laptops can’t connect to the Mac’s internet sharing. I can tell by experience. If you were able to make it work please share it with us. :D

@Fern – yes. you can follow the steps as written by Abe

@SoNn, not sure where your problem lies, but had no difficulty sharing a Visibility signal from my macbook with 2 officemates who both had netbooks running on XP. Maybe have your laptop checked at Switch in ATC, the people there are really sharp and were able to fix a problem I was having with my USB port in no time.

hi, tanong ko lang bkt ung pc ko walang option na set up a wireless adhoc? do i need to do something else for that option to appear? im using vista starter, is that relevant? tnx

Bossing is this possible for desktop to desktop connection. Crossover Ethernet PC to PC connection.? Syang ksi ung SUN… i pc lang pwede… thanks…

Hi. I have shared connection on vista, phone (E65) finds it and connects to it, but other laptop with XP don’t find the network. Does it somehow works between Vista and XP over wifi?

which brand of router u can suggest, we have desk top(XP) & WIFI Laptop, I want also my desktop to wireless so that no messy wired on the floor

I’ve got 2 more windy31’s still on-stock (+1 more for personal use). I guess useless na siya..

If you are using Windows 7, Connectify is a dead simple way to use the virtual wifi port built into W7. Basically, you run the program and you can easily share any connection, LAN, 3G, Wifi or even dialup modem, over wifi. Basically, it creates your own hotspot.

(cool bonus feature: if you are in a paid wifi place and are with a bunch of friends, only 1 person needs to pay and they can reshare the wifi with everyone)

I can’t seem to connect my iPhone to the internet using this created sort of wifi network…even when it has no password?!

ANY IDEAS WHY?

@abeolandres and others :D

Been using joikuspot for over two years now… It’s great and very reliable.

hmmm… will bookmark this page, thanks sir…

Hi abe, I tried doing this using BayanBRO, and guess what? They’re too greedy to let you share your connection. Can you help me on this one?

Did this on my desktop. My laptop detects the wifi ad hoc but only gets limited connectivity. Can anybody help me on this?

my android phone cant search the set network (wifi)?
