3g wireless hotspot for droid 2

i recently got a droid 2 and can not figure out how to get my 3 g hotspot on it! plz help

If you go into settings, then mobile network connections (not sure what it is exactly called on your phone), you should see a button that says Mobile Hot Spot or "tether". You would want to configure MHS. You do have to purchase the mhs feature before this will work, though.

Hi All! I have an iphone 4s. I want to buy an ipad but torn between wifi or wifi cellular. Can I use for sure, my iphone 4s as the wireless hotspot for my ipad if I get the ipad wifi only? And if yes, is the signal/connection good? Thank you.

Hi all! I have an iphone 4s. I want to buy an ipad but I'm torn between wifi or wifi+cellular because of the price difference. Can I really use my iphone 4s as the wireless hotspot for my ipad? If yes, is the signal good and fast? Thank you for your response.

Yes you can if:
1: Your cellular provider offers a data tethering option.
2: You have subscribed to this option.
Speed will be as it is with your existing iPhone.

Can iphone 4 serve as a wireless hotspot for my laptop?

I thought I saw that this was possible, is it? does it require a change in the data plan for the phone?

It requires a change in the data plan, and I believe adds 45.00/month.

I have a new MBRP. On wired ethernet it can be used as a wireless hotspot. Since 802.11ac gets better range I'd like to use it with 802.11ac as a hotspot for my older 802.11g/ndevices. Can I do that ?

I know that if I use wired ethernet then the MBRP can be a wirelss hotspot for other devices. Since the MBRP supports 802.11ac and I have a new 802.11ac wireless router it gets much better range than my older 802.11/n devices. There are places in teh house where the MBRP connects to the wireless but where older 802.11g/n devices lare out of range. In those rooms I'd like to use my MBRP connected to the network wirelessly using 802.11ac as a hotspot for the nearby 802.11 g/n devices. Anyone know if that can be done and how to do it ?

Turn on Internet Sharing in Sharing preferences. Share the Ethernet connection to wireless.

Solved. Travel router WTR54GS sharing one wireless hotspot connection with multiple devices

Hi, Passing on info I've learned.
The manual for the WTR54GS mentions being able to "...use multiple devices on a single hotspot account in a coffee shop or airport lounge...". See my original posting, "How to set up a wireless private bubble at paid hotspot? WTR54GS?", which ended in a dead end. I subsequently had a Linksys live chat session and the representative provided the solution. Perhaps worthy to be included in the Wireless FAQ?
Situation: you have access to a paid hotspot (hotel room, meeting room, etc.) and you want to share the connection with several devices, also wirelessly.
Solution: the WTR54GS can accept an incoming Internet connection wirelessely and re-broadcast that connection to form your own private bubble or network. (Note the WTR54GS can also accept an incoming Internet connection via Ethernet cable).
Linksys Live Chat pointed me to these web pages.
Go to the Linksys Easy Answers page: For a schematic of the concept of "associating the travel router to a hotspot (wirelessly)" search for Easy Answer ID# 4831
URL for above is http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=4831&p_created=1167963305&p_sid=GmLnq3Zi&p_accessibility=0&p_lva=&p_sp=cF9zcmNoPTEmcF9zb3J0X2J5PSZwX2dyaWRzb3J0PSZwX3Jvd19jbnQ9NjImcF9wcm9kcz0wJnBfY2F0cz0xNzIxLDE3MjMmcF9wdj0mcF9jdj0yLjE3MjMmcF9zY2ZfbGFuZz0xJnBfcGFnZT0xJnBfc2VhcmNoX3RleHQ9V1RSNTRHUw**&p_li=&p_topview=1
There is a "configuration simulator" that shows the options for selecting a wired or wireless incoming Internet Type.
http://linksys.com/ui/files/WTR54GS/1.0_15/Setup-Wireless.htm
The hotspot has to be "open", that is transmitting an SSID and with no WEP or WPA key. It may have a log-in page accessible via a web browser, this is okay as this will be passed onto the connected device.
My personal application is to be able to connect a PDA that has a 801.2b wifi to a 801.2g wireless network. I haven't tried it but if this works, it will extend the useful life of my PDA in a "g" environment. Will report back once I find a "g" only environment. Comments?

There are two conditions which must be met in order to use your WTR54GS to "extend" an incoming, wireless internet connection:
The incoming connection must be unsecured. You have already covered this point;
The security settings on your WTR54GS can only be set to "WEP," or to "Disabled." If you choose "WEP," then you can use either a 40/64-bit, or a 128-bit key.
If those two conditions have been met, then it works fine -- says the guy who is sharing one paid internet conneciton in his hotel amongst three devices, and with co-workers in nearby rooms.

Hi there can anyone help me out. I have Apple TV and I am trying to connect wirelessly through a zyxel wireless hotspot gateway, I know a tad extreme but a friend had one free, anyway I can find the router but no Internet connection?

The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...

Disabling LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw as a wireless hotspot

Hello
Bought HP LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw.
It announces ( broadcasts) its wireless network HP-Print-74-LaserJet100.
Which interferes with my other wireless network, and makes quality of signal lower.
Is it possible to disable wireless hotspot feature on the printer?
Wifi is disabled in setup (printer is connected by ethernet).
Thank you in advance

Hi rghw
I will be happy to help you.
To disable the wireless direct you can also do it right on the printer by going to the setup button (wrench) on the printer, right arrow to network setup menu,wireless menu, wireless direct, turn it off from there.
The web server is to access the network page for the printer.
To access the web server page, print out a configuration report from the printer by going to the setup button (wrench) on the printer, right arrow to reports, config report to get the ip address for the printer.
You type in the ip address for the printer in the address of bar of internet explorer to bring up the embedded web server for the printer.
If you need more assistance just let me know.

How to download HP Wireless Hotspot software

What is link to downlaod HP Wireless Hotspot software?

Hi surrendernot,
It is possible that either a) you were using different scanning software other than HP software for scanning, or b) the HP software is different on Windows 7, than on Windows XP, as they are completely different Operating Systems, and could be a newer version of the software.
Some other methods of scanning can be found within this How to Scan guide, HP Multifunction Printers - How to Scan: Windows 7, you can try scanning without HP software as well.
Hope this answers your question!

Running a Mac OS X-based internet café or wireless hotspots?

I am interested to know if anyone has any experience running an automated billing system for an internet café and/or wireless hotspots using elegant OS X software.
If someone could share their experience or point me in the direction of software or other websites, I would be very appreciative (and I'm sure there are others out there wanting to know this too).
Many thanks,
Galen
P.S. I'm also posting this question in the Tiger networking forum as I'm not sure which place is more relevant (http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=755)

Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users

Cisco WLC 5508 with 3702APs - mobile hotspot for 2000 Guest users
I've been given a fantastic "opportunity" by my boss to use our existing wireless infrastructure to provide internet access to potentially upto 2000 VIP guests arriving with BYOD devices, in a very densely populated area for a 3 day event. We are talking an area of approx 200m x 15m. Think of it as an awards ceremony/concert. The solution will also be mobile so we will be using internet breakout from different telcos as it will move to approx 20 countries. The area is also incredibly densely populated with other wifi APs. I did a brief site survey and AirMagnet could detect over 2500 other 'rogue' APs from where I was stood! I hope CleanAir works!
We need a simple authentication method for them to connect with zero admin from our side. We don't want to just offer up a rolling daily PSK as that's a bit amateur and we don't really want the VIP guests sharing the PSK with others during their stay. Ideally they could self-provision by providing an email address.
I know the WLC can handle webauth for local users but I don't think it scales very well. ie I don't think I can offer the account to several hundred people.
Cisco ISE looks a very expansive (and expensive) product but I don't think we need all it's capabilities (do I?). It would be nice to just ask a potential user for their email address and grant them access and email them next year. I've seen Cisco NAC but that looks over the top too for just guest users who will only be accessing a shared internet connection.
I've seen 3rd party supposed software solutions from Kiosk Antamedia etc do they work with Cisco Enterprise WLC solutions?
We'd like to limit users to a certain (low) bandwidth and block (say) torrent traffic to keep the general user experience worthwhile.
Does anybody have any case study documents or experience of such a project? As well as the authentication it's how well the APs will handle the dense potential number of clients trying to connect in such a confined space.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated from the knowledgeable community.
Cheers,
Mike

Hi Rasika,
We are having WLC 5508 model with software version running 7.4.121.0. AP Models are AIR-CAP2602I.
Normally our WAN links are good even while the issue pertains. We are connected to remote offices over ipsec site to site vpn for WAN. The link latency in WLC between the AP and the controller shows <1ms.
currently the Guest network is using WPA2-PSK auth given in the controller. we are trying to find a option to make the Guest wireless auth local to the office, and see if this solves the problem.
any suggestions,
Thank you,
Arjun

Very slow wirelesss when using iPhone 4S' personal hotspot for a MacBook Pro (MBP)...

Hello.
Last night, I was helping a client with his old iPhone 4S' personal hotspot as shown in http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT4517 web page. It uses Verizon Wireless 3G for his 4 GB data cellular connection. We got the wireless (WPA2) connection to work fine, but it was very slow like crappy dial-up modem speeds. Is this normal? iPhone's iOS v8.1.2's top screen says 1X (is this a speed number?) and left of MBP. Updated Mac OS X 10.8.5's top screen shows an infinite(?) symbol instead of that wifi arc symbol.
Thank you in advance.

yes, 1x is a speed indicator, and it is very slow. Even with 3g speeds, hotspot will be pretty slow, but still ok for simple surfing and emails and such, streaming not so much. For hotspot, you really kinda want to have at least 4g, preferably LTE.
About that 1x speed, you may want to see if you get that everywhere or just in that location. Ideally, in a good coverage area, you should not be getting such slow speeds. Might have something to do with the building you are in though. If you get the same outdoors, and your coverage area is good, you may want to call in and have someone troubleshoot your signal.

Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. Thank you!

Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. The Belkin was closest to working. IT could find my iphone but when it create a new network, both the laptop and printer could not find the new extended network. Thank you!

Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

Overage Charge on 4GLTE Wireless Hotspot

I've incurred dditional overage charges on my wireless hotspot from time to time, but I'm noticing being charged for GB that I didn't use. Last month I used 10.944GB then turned off the wifi. But my bill has charged me as though I went over 2GB. Is this happening to anyone else. What's up with this?

I have the same problem. I monitor my data usage almost every day, either via the web site or the iPhone app. I keep a spreadsheet so as to not go over my limit. Firstly, I did not get a 90% usage alert like I was set up to get. Also, I have a 14 GB plan. According to the iPhone app's usage total, my daily cumulative GB usage from 2/01-09 was:
7.902
8.257
10.742
12.702
13.133
13.426
13.670
13.779
13.787
13.808
The last two were on 2/09, the last day of my billing cycle. The last value, 13.808 was as of 2122 on 2/09. Imagine my horror to find out the next day that they showed that I'd used a total of 15.533 GB!!! And yet, their video on overages suggests that we closely monitor our usage using their web site or the app!

Is your WiFi Hotspot's driver up-to-date?
Or are you using a third party software for WiFi hotspot?

Wireless Hotspot

I have seen on the web that the phone can be turned in to a wireless hotspot but I can not find how to do it on the phone.
Does any one know it if can be done and what I need to do to make it a wireless hotspot.
Am using a 9380 with 7.0 bundle2220 (v7.0.0.513, platform 9.32.0.51) software.

Hello nolan87,
Welcome to the forums.
If the BlackBerry® smartphone that you are using is the BlackBerry® Curve™ 9380 smartphone then it does not have 3G Hotspot Support. This device cannot be used as a wireless hotspot.
Hope this helps. Have a good day.
