Share internet connection
Hi all,
I have been busy lately in finding a way to share my laptop internet connection - Ethernet - with my mobile phone. First, I tried to make an adhoc network. Although making an adhoc network is very easy in Ubuntu,I failed as my mobile phone - Android 2.1 Eclair - do not support adhoc networks :D.
Then, I tried usb reverse tethering and it also not supported in my mobile.
Finally, the solution was Bzeek. It enables you to make a wifi hotspot of your laptop. The only limitation is that this program is only for windows. All you have to do is
1- Download bzeek software from here .
2- Install it.
3- Sign up from here.
4- Enable wireless in your laptop (The laptop that has the Ethernet connection).
5- If the green sign of bzeek doesn't appear in the toolbar open bzeek (from all programs).
6- Right click on this green icon -> Turn on Personal hotspot.
7- Sign in (from your laptop) here .
8- Enable wireless in the other device that you want to share the internet connection with.
9- Sign in from the other device.
NOTE: You may face a problem and the hotspot not created, then check your firewall and adjust the permission for Bzeek.
Have fun.
