[How To] Config ad-hoc wifi with hd2

---

I am using ad-hoc wifi on my hd2 since a week.
I am using ad-hoc wifi with almost any rooted build.
I first go to wifi n settings and add and set up my ad-hoc connection.
It will show my connection not in range.
Then I use root-explorer and edit /data/misc/wpa_supplicant.conf
I add line ap_scan = 2 in the top
and add at the bottom of network section of my ad-hoc network
mode=1
priority=1

then I go to settings and switch on my wifi.

If then also net is problematic, I give static Id.
My gateway is 192.168.0.1
I give static ip 192.168.0.133 (13/3 is my birthday )
netmask 255.255.255.0

Hope this helps!

the instructions above do not work for me..I have edited wpa_supplicant.conf and now it shows this

ctrl_interface=eth0
update_config=1
ap_scan = 2

network={
ssid="Abitza"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
auth_alg=OPEN SHARED
wep_key0=0238521368
mode=1
priority=1
}

the problem is that after I rebooted into android my wifi doesn't work anymore..it tries to turn on and after that it says ERROR... any solution?

I too would like to properly tether.

Can any one post more specific I instructions on how to do this?

Thanks!

Did you set up the APN of your carrier, do you have a data plan activated?

I also, about 2 weeks ago, tried to connect my HD2 to my laptop ad-hoc wifi network, but unfortunately in the end I had the same result as adrian.mkl.86, broken wifi. I tried several instuctions from here and there but noting worked. Now I'm affraid to change anything in wpa_supplicant.conf, because wifi again will be down

i have same wifi problem. Turn out the device doesn't have the mac address at all. Does anyone know how to change the mac address in here? I try couple way but it doesn't work, like using fastboot

i try to use wifi for internet connection,using my wireless router, not internet from the 3g phone company(vodafone) . The phone finds wireless netework, gets an ip and establishes a connection BUT there is no data comming in... nothing loads... i have set APN but i think that hasnt anything to do with my wireless network... by the way the network is open so no wep/wpa key is needed, and never had issues with connections whatsoever.... Is there a way to see if packets are comming in to the phone?

This is a DNS problem. Try to manually enter a working DNS address.
