How to share internet access from iPhone with home LAN

Hello,
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I just bought an iPhone and am trying to use it to provide internet access to a LAN at my cottage where only dial-up is possible with my ISP. Although this is easily accomplished by enabling internet sharing on my iMac and plugging it into my router's WAN port, I do not have any access to my IP printer or to my SONOS music system. Any pointers?
Thanks,
Martin Girard

Well, getting internet access for my iMac is straightforward using USB tethering (I live in Canada, no AT&T crap). Then, I can share this connection with other computers (via ethernet in my case) by enabling internet sharing (in the Sharing control panel). My problem is that once I plug my iMac in the WAN port of my router, I can't access my LAN anymore. Any ideas???

  • How to share internet connection from notebook to mobile phone with micro usb cord in Debian based OS? (reverse tethering)

    I want to share internet connection from notebook to my mobile phone (Keon) with micro usb cord (because I don't have wifi). I found in Firefox OS (version: Boot2Gecko 1.1.1.0-prerelease) Settings only the possibility to share internet from mobile phone to PC. I use a Debian based OS: Knoppix. I tried to accomplish this with Networking Manager and I did a new wired connection via my phone with "Shared to other computers" IPv4 Settings and with FE:...:02 (usb0) MAC address. But on my phone there is not internet although the connecton between my notebook and phone is estableshed.

    Hi Pimpo,
    Thank you for posting your question. I was trying to reproduce your the Shared network, and I would love to know what kind of network you used to connect. This is not possible as of yet and I will file a bug being able to do this, but to make sure I have the right steps on the bug can you confirm the set up of the shared network please?
    Also this is currently not possible because the software does not know how to send network traffic over usb, assuming you do not have the ability to turn the computer into a wifi hot spot, which I would recommend instead...

  • How to share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?

    Hi!
    How do you share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?
    So far I've managed to create a network and I joined my iPhone to the network. But when I turn on Internet Sharing from Leopard, iPhone's Safari won't use the connection. It either starts to use EDGE/3G or says that it isn't connected to the Internet...
    What went wrong?

    I have managed to get it work, but only when I completely turn my desktop computer's firewall off. To do this, select the Security icon in System Preferences, then click the Firewall tab. Next, select the 'Allow all incoming connections' option. I wish there was a way to configure individual ports so that I didn't have to leave my firewall wide open, but I haven't figured out how to do that so far.

    You just need to enter system preferences, open the tab share, and there you can choose the option "share internet". Then you select the way you want to do it and that's all.

  • How to share internet connection from cable modem through built-in airport on imac?

    I have a cable modem with ethernet going into imac. How can I share the internet connection using the iMacs built in airport with other computers that have airport cards?
    I would love to put an ethernet router between the imac and the modem and share the internet connection using the iMacs built in airport with other computers that have airport cards as well.
    Thanks!

    The setup I had working is what I have connected to the internet now. A cable modem with one ethernet jack that plugs into the iMac. The airport from the iMac broadcast to my G5 with an airport card in it and received the internet connection. The PC received it the same way from the iMac but to a Netgear wireless adapter.
    I messed things up recently adding a wired 4 port ethernet router between the iMac and the modem, so that the modem ethernet plugged into the router, and from the router, plugged into the iMac which then could receive the internet but no more airport connections to my other machines. Haven't been able to get it working since.

  • How to share and Access DB (.accdb) with global tables that link to SQL Server tables without having to define ODBC connections on each client PC?

    Hi Jason,
    I think you can automate that process. In each application I use a one-record-table in the FE with a field Connected. Connected is default False.
    Starting a database in the development mode ignores this flag. Starting a database in production mode starts, if Not Connected, a procedure to RefreshLink the tables to the BE, and makes Connected = TRUE, so a next startup does not
    result in a new RefreshLink.
    Instead of a Boolean you could also use a string containing the path, or whatever you want.

  • Lynksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router - Help needed to share internet connection from PC to home network

    Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me out with a problem I have:
    I am currently connecting my PC to a mobile phone as a Wireless Access Point to give that PC access the internet. I also have a small home network, with one other PC and a Game Console. I own a Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router. My problem is this. How do I share that internet connection with the rest of the home network?
    To the best of my knowledge its not possible to connect my mobile phone directly to my Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router, although if anyone has any ideas how to do this I'd love to hear!
    So my alternative idea is to connect to the internet via one PC, set up that internet connection as "Shared." and then allow the other devices on the home network to connect thru this. My question is how do I set up my  Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router to allow my other PC and game console connect to the internet? Bridge Mode? PPPoE? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! PS: both PC's are running on Windows 8

    I have Cisco Linksys E900 router. I want to make my home Wi-Fi zone. But I don’t have Static IP. One more thing is that Service provider have web page Authentication. I have username and pass.
    I am able to make SSID and security for my WI-FI LAN. I can use internet on one device. If I tried from second device again it’s asking me for username and password. While login it’s showing your first session in not logout. (Means I have to logout from 1st device and have to login on 2nd device.)
    Is there any option that I can Use my all devices at same time?

  • How do I share internet between my iphone 4 and my ipad?

    I have an iphone 4S (model: MC603B/A) with 7.1.2 (11DD257). The operator is Carrier 16.1.
    I have tried to share internet between this iphone and my ipad, but I cannot do it because when I arrive at the relevant option through adjustments (mobile data>set up "share internet"), I always get the same message: (to activate "share internet" in this account, contact Carrier - translation from Spanish.
    I have contacted ONO, which is the phone company that is providing me with service, thinking that it was my "carrier", and they sent me back to "apple" to sort this out. They say that I could have this service if my iphone was well set up but they cannot do it themselves.
    How could I set it up?
    Thanks for your help in advance,

    In order to use hotspot, you need to be provisioned by your phone carrier to do so.  I suggest you go and talk to someone higher up with ONO.

  • I HAVE AN IPAD 2 WITH WIFI ONLY, CAN I GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM ANY SMARTPHONE, OR DO I NEED A SPECIFIC PHONE FOR THIS?

    i ave an ipad 2 with wifi only, can i get internet access from any cell phone, or do i need a specific phone or type of phone

    I received an iPad 2 for Christmas (the 1st Apple item I've ever owned!) and own a Nokia N95 8GB mobile (that's pretty much on its last legs/ready to die any day).
    On the Nokia I've got 2 apps (downloaded from/via Nokia's 'Ovi' app store): JoikuSpot & HandyWi. Both are the free versions.
    I've not used HandyWi much - if at all - but JoikuSpot has been great. Basically, it creates a wifi hotspot (as pjl123 mentioned) in a couple of straightforward steps, and allows a few devices to be connected. It displays who/what is connected at a given time - so you can check if the guy having coffee behind you is piggybacking your hotspot or not! - data packets sent received etc.
    The paid version has the benefit of allowing you to secure the hotspot and other security features.  Their website is www.joiku.com, FYI.
    Given how slow behind the 8 ball Nokia has been, their phones are getting cheaper and cheaper - given Joiku's meant to work with Nokia S60, Symbian ^3, Maemo, Meego & Sony Ericsson S60, this might be a cost effective option.
    Ps. Ah! One more thing - Joiku's website specifies that 3G must be used; that WAP will not work. Good luck, enjoy!

  • How do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    how do i get contacts from iphone to merge with outlook contacts

    If Outlook already has a munch of contacts, do I need to delete them all (all but 1 unique) to sync correctly?
    I have and iPhone ith up to date contacts, and I have outlook with some of the same contacts with older info. When I sync, outlook is OK, but I get a lot of copies of the same contact on my iPhone. Now I'm not entirely sure which are the up-to-date contacts and which aren't (and there's hundred of contacts to go through).
    ...For future reference, is there a way to to send the iPhone contacts to Outlook without adding crap to my phone? Amidst the sync process I noticed and option for conflicting files and choose the "always use phone" but still wound up with a contact mess of mixed old and new on the phone.
