Got a problem need help here:

1. This method works well and nearly double the speed of tethering by BT.:)

2. However, after setup this adhoc wifi connection in my A70, when my mobile is off and A70 connected to my home Router, the download speed dropped dramatically to only 10-20%! Tested my router and it is working well. :(

Anyone experienced the same? Know how to get this resolved? :confused:

Do you meaning that I have to change configuration file wpa_supplicant.conf to get Adhoc in advance then install latest AR-DRONE.apk afterward in order to let Wifi AD-Hoc & AR-DRONE working?

Quite a few things have changed over the past couple months, particularly around the requirement for an adhoc capable device.

With the Parrot 1.7.1 firmware the AR.Drone no longer requires an adhoc capable device to connect to it. By default a drone with 1.7.1+ will boot up with its wifi adapter in Access Point mode, thus enabling any infrastructure capable device (as is standard with Android devices) to connect to it.

Head over to the Parrot support site and follow their procedure for upgrading your drone firmware using a PC if you do not have access to an iDevice.

Once you've installed the latest and greatest firmware most, if not all, of the Android apps available on the Market will work with your drone.

Hope this helps,
Shell

I think you need something linke "wifi tether" for your HD2. I don't know if there is one for Windows Mobile 6.5.. Maybe it's the best you flash android on your HD2.

it's not necessary for hd2 because it has the option to share internet connection...
I've tried everything but I have not found a cure...:(

Unfortunately my only connection to the internet at the moment it's my phone and it's a problem for me so i look for a solution

    First of all thanks to all which are posting specially to Sauron!

    If you want to make your Drone working with Archos, here is what I did:

    Get root access:
    1) Install SDE
    2) Get the initramfs from this post (download the kernel+init.zip and extract it): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9948644&postcount=1
    3) Replace the zImage with the new overclocked kernel
    4) Boot into SDE recovery menu and copy the initramfs.cpio.gz and zImage through USB cable
    5) Boot into SDE developer OS
    6) You should get all your apps here and have superuser right now

    Suddenly no wpa_supplicant was not working on mine, so you have to change configuration file wpa_supplicant.conf to get Adhoc:

    1) get Rootexplorer
    2) open root explorer and find /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
    Here is mine (second network is my normal router):

    update_config=0
    ctrl_interface=tiwlan0
    ap_scan=2
    network={
    ssid="ardrone_108549"
    key_mgmt=NONE
    priority=1
    mode=1
    }

    network={
    ssid="BytecekG"
    psk="PASSWORD"
    key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
    priority=1
    }

    4) overwrite wpa_supplicant.conf in Archos with new content
    5) change rights to wpa_supplicant.conf to RW-RW-RW-
    6) delete file tiwlan.ini
    7) start drone and then wifi on Archos

    When you restart you should repeat step 5 and step 6 and step 7.

    GOOD LUCK, IT WAS HORROR TO GET THIS WORKING :)

    Two programs for Ar drone:
    http://www.rafoid.com/2010/12/ardroid-2/?lang=en - nice but I have problems with connection link
    http://www.meavydev.co.uk/ARDrone.html not nice but more working
