How can I connect to my mobile access point android phones?

I have a LG Vortex with OS android 2.2.1. The desktop of my PC is Windows Vista service pack 2. I have a 3g Mobile Hotspot on my android smartphone and I would like to connect my PC to my wireless phone to be able to benefit from the hotspot and connect to the internet... A reply as soon as possible would be greatly appreciated. If I can't do this my phone can also connect to a VPN. HOW do I set up my PC and phone to connect to each other within a virtual private network?

Hello

If your Android device is defined as a hot spot and set up to tie the Internet, connect to it with a PC is like any WIFI connection.

Using your Vista wireless capability you're looking for the phone WIFI SSID (wireless name) and connect you to the WIFI phone.

For Vista, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928429

In regards to the phone, Android configuration, as a hot spot is not so simple, the phone must be rooted and a special 3rd party apk tethering must be installed.

  • Satellite M70: I can't connect to the WLan access point

    I have several wireless laptops, all work fine - except my M70.
    I use Intel Proset, and he sees the access point, but says "unable to connect" when I try.
    The signal is high (2 meters distance).

    I tried with WEP, WPA and without security. I am absolutely convinced that I entered the right keys.
    The access point is a Belkin Pre - N-, but I tried with a point of access 3Com, with the same problem - my Ipaq, my other PC, and all guests can connect,- but not my Toshiba!
    The wireless card is the standard Intel, with the latest driver from October 2006 intalled.

    Getting desperate...

    Hello

    If you get a signal strong, so I guess that the laptop is already connected to the access point. Or am I wrong?
    On my laptop, the computer WLan small icon appears only if I connected to the Wlan and then I can see the State of the signal.

    However, you suggested to use the Intel Proset utility to configure the WiFi network but on the clean Windows configuration. Have you tested it?

    This question seems very strange to me.
    Sometimes it of not possible to connect the WiFi network because of poor compatibility between the router and wireless network card.
    My router supports Wlan AB mode and my second card for computer laptop support BG.
    That's why I m not able to connect to the Wlan. Maybe it s also your case.

    On my router, I can also put the MAC address filtering. You should check this option on your router.
    But generally it is not easy to say why it happens. You know you should check every single option and if it s not possible so I guess that it s a compatibility issue.

  • How can I watch to present lectures on my Android phone?

    He used to be an app available in the shop of Play to watch the presenter conferences but it is no longer available. How can I watch on my S4 Galaxy Presenter conferences?

    According to me, that the app has been abandoned because the presenter is now taking in charge the HTML editing, but also Flash. So for mobile support, the people creating the content should just need to publish both HTML and verified SWF graphics. Then you should have the opportunity to watch the presentation in the web browser of your Galaxy.

    c. sign to a computer network or a network mobile broadband. Some tablet computers have connections to data network integrated such as the type that personal digital assistants (PDAS) and the use of cell phones. You need to register for an account with the provider of service associated with the integrated network. Alternatively, you can sign up for broadband wireless services and to access broadband that plugs into a USB port with an adapter.

  • How can I connect to someone who is hacking my network?

    How can I connect to someone who is hacking my network?

    Hi Frank,.

    What kind of network - your internet connection?  your intranet from home or the office (and it is wireless or wired or both)?  An ad - hoc network or a network based on the domain server (and if the latter, what type of server)?  The network hosts a web site, an exchange server that is accessible by internet, or also allowed incoming connections?  How many computers is on the network and what are the current use operating systems and who do you think are presented?  If you use a router, is protected by a router security identifier unique and a password (no admin / admin or other default standard settings, everyone knows) and a unique key and what type of security type (WPA, WPA2,...) and what type of encryption code?  This can be verified by the computer and others need to be checked or enabled via the router you can reach most likely through your browser by typing 192.168.1.1 where you would normally enter a URL.  If this isn't the correct code, then see below for IPCONFIG and would probably be the address that you want as the gateway by default and possibly the address of the DHCP server or the DNS server address as well and use what is there instead.  What type of method of internet access (DSL, cable, Satellite,...)?

    How do you know if that someone is hacking your system?  What evidence do you have that it happens or happened?  How do you think that piracy happens - happens through your connections in real-time (as if someone used a remote access or remote desktop) or it occurs because you seem to see the proof of it (if so, what evidence)?  I am trying to determine if a person has a path in your system directly or whether you are infected with malware that allows a periodic access or 'appear' as you are being hacked, when you are just infected.

    Do you notice it when it is real or only later after it occurred?  What exactly is the pirate make - information collection, change of information, install programs, remove programs or information, theft of bandwidth, or you are not sure and don't know exactly?  This happens only when you are connected to the internet or does it also occur when you are not connected and just using the computers and devices that are other interconnected?  If it isn't when it is connected to the internet, which helps limit the possibilities.

    If you are present and it's ongoing, click on start / all programs / accessories / right-click on command prompt and click Run as administrator.  Then type IPCONFIG/all and enter.  Which should display all connections to your computer, and if anyone is connected, this connection must appear, as well as login information and include information such as address TCP/IP (which may be useful to know).  Create a capture image or printscreen of the information.

    If you use Vista or Windows 7, go to start / Control Panel / Network and sharing Center / discover computers and devices.  Is there a link that doesn't seem right or that you don't recognize?  Come back and click on manage network connections.  Are there connections that you don't recognize?  If so, click on them and learn what you can about the properties and other information - create a capture of information or save a printscreen image.

    You use the Windows Firewall and is it activated and functioning?  Open and check exceptions and remove the items that you do not use or do not need - by default adds a lot of things that most people do not use. and everyone is a path in your system.  The less open ports, the better.  Do not remove everything you really need, but uncheck everything you don't need (you can always add it back later if the need ever happens).

    It's just a start on what to do to gather information.  I need the results and answers to give additional advice on what to do next - depending on what you have to say.

    Most likely, we will be able to best prevent access or possibly with the help of your ISP and the ISP of the hacker TCP/IP address (if we find the it), be able to identify who it is and stop it or help you gather enough information take legal or security action against the person or persons responsible.  Ago probably pirates out there that can do what you're tempted, but also provides methods of hacking (and that is basically what YOU want to do) is not something we support or help someone to do here.  To help you protect your system is one thing and we'll do what we can to help here - teach you how to hack the somone who is hacking you is quite another and we will not be involved in this.

    ***********************************************************

    In the meantime, in case there is an infection as opposed to a direct hacking, update and run a full scan with any security software you use.

    If you do not have because they can help, try the following programs. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx.

    Check the following compliments from Stephen Boots - MVP:

    S ' ensure that the Windows Firewall is enabled.

    S ' ensure that all critical updates or important, including service packs for the operating system and programs are installed from Microsoft Update (Windows Update).

    -Make sure that Internet Explorer is version 8 or 9 and implemented to date with all patches.

    -In Internet Explorer 8 or 9, use the SmartScreen filter.

    -Make sure that the Internet IE security settings are at least put to fire medium-high (default).

    -Turn on the pop-up blocker in Internet Explorer.

    -On Vista and Windows 7 make sure that User Account Control (UAC) and doesn't work with elevated privileges.

    -Make sure that automatic updates of Windows are set to notify at least, but the preferred setting is to download and install automatically. If you update manually, be sure to update as soon as possible after being informed of updates available.

    -Make sure that installed applications, including Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Flash and Java are at their latest versions. Many vendors are regularly updated and fixes security vulnerabilities.

    -Never click through links from unknown sources and be careful, even if they are from a "reliable".

    -Do not open attachments in unsolicited e-mail.

    -Practice safe web surfing.

    To ensure that you are not infected (or remove the suspicion that you are infected which is often the case in such situations and is done either by hackers or may appear as the pirates are active when it is just a system infected - or if more than one, you have several computers connected), please follow these compliments of recommendations of JimR1 - MVP :
