Device connection to Hotel wall Broadband

[Digs]

My device ( see below ) is a Imate Jas Jar, the cable that connects has a mini usb to a normal usb connection for connection to PC ( with active sync).

I am soon to travel and the hotel rooms have broadband with the connection being a standard network cable. If I get a adapter for the normal usb to the standard network cable, will I get the INTERNET into my device.

Does my device have a network card like functionality on the end of the mini usb cable.

Please advise...

Never heard of that kind of rig,,, I travel with my O2 Exec and have always been able to hook up to my hotel highspeed via my wifi service in the O2.

Some hotels have USB connections at the hub for High speed so you should call the hotel and ask if they have a wifi hotspot or USB connection instead of the normal LAN cable connect.

The hotel that I am staying at have wifi in the lobby only.

No you can't. Your phone does not have USB host function on it. Get yourself a SD-WiFi

[Digs]

My god, whats SD Wifi ???

Or get yourself a wireless travel router, which is what I use. Works quite well for both the universal and laptops.

There are several models available, I show you this one (which I have) as an example:

The wireless travel router is the best suggestion.

The Universal already has WiFi, so no idea why someone suggested an SD WiFi card.

Nothing that connects via USB will work as the Universal does not support USB Host mode.

Most wireless routers for connection to a cat5 socket cable or dsl modem will also work, the are just not as small and neat as a travel router.

Why would you think that anyone with tornado A2DP experence would be reading a post on network connections in the universal forum, you might try looking for answers here

What I did in the past was setup my notebook as an access-point (sorta). Since my notebook could accept CAT5, and has WiFi, what I did was connect CAT5 to notebook, enable "Internet Connection Sharing" on the wifi. Create a P2P (adhoc) connection with Universal -- and voila, internet access for Universal via WiFi within the room.

BTW, why don't you reflash your ROM with an AKU2.0 ROM so that you can have NATIVE A2DP support?

[Menneisyys]

BTW, another vote for a travel router. It's pretty useless to look for a SD-based wired Ethernet card - I only know of CF-based ones. (And they suck too - they have REALLY bad power consumption)

Hi
My question was addressed to BILLB and never meant for everyone in the forum, Gladly, we have nice minded people like you who have directed me to an available solution. Incidentally i upgraded my rom to AKU 3.2 and it supports A2DP Beautifully, but the sound is broken frequently, so am hunting at newwer grounds.
regards
AL
