How do I make this a link on the desktop? - HTC Excalibur

Trying to figure out how Settings / Connections / WLAN Settings / Wi-Fi can be made into a shortcut or link on the desktop. Like to have "one click access" to search for wifi when I'm outside my network.

HeeeeeellllllPPP Meeeeee Please...

I connect to Wi-fi Line with Internet, but when i Sign In the messenger dont connect to wi-fi net and turn-on the gprs or 3G
try go to:
settings -> connections -> connections -> advanced -> select networks -> change the "Programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using:" to "My Work Networks"
If you want to use GPRS, revert the setting back.
Thanks... Work good

Hmmzz... this doesn't work for me.
When I'm connected to Wi-Fi and I do the setting you describe, I get the error message as shown in the attachment when I want to sign in with Windows Live Messenger. Suggestions?
Something else: when still connected to Wi-Fi and I just leave the connection settings the way they where, and I sign in with Messenger, the Messenger wants to connect by GPRS/3G (the known thing).
But when I then quickly press "Cancel" (or press cancel a few times when one time isn't enough) in the GPRS/3G connection popup, the connection build up will stop and Messenger WILL actually sign me in, seemingly using Wi-Fi.
Do you think I can assume it's really using Wi-Fi and not the cellular connection, since there's NO GPRS/3G connection icon in the top bar at that moment?
If there is no GPRS/3G connection on top bar, it's using a Wifi.
Your prob similiar to my girlfriend's Hp 6828, Just make sure you setting for connection to your hotspot is setted to connect to internet, not to connect to work. and try to set the setting first then connect your wifi. My GF's 6828 prob solve by it.
Strange isn't it?
Then let me know...

IE wont work after upgrade

I just upgraded to WM6 i can connect using wifi for mail and such but IE wont work. it wont connect. I dont have a data plan currently so i cant/wont test that part out. Any clue as to why IE wont connect like this? o and im also new here, been around a little while but just stayed quit trying to learn more lol.
Same Issue Here
Same problem here after upgrading to wm6 but no subscription for internet access with AT&T:
I can access my email but have no chance to configure the modem for wifi access. It always remains grayed out "Cellular Line (GPRS , 3G).
Here is the steps I took so far:
Settings - Connections - Connections - Taks MEdia Net is selected.
Advanced - Select Networks is set to MEdia Net
Edit - MEdia Net - Enter a name for the connection: MEdia NET > Linksys
Select a modem: "Cellular line (GPRS , 3G) This is where I have problems to select my "Linksys" connection because the Select a modem is grayed out and not changeable.
What did I miss? Why is it downloading my email but IE is not working.
ok, now it works
I must have missed to disable proxy.
Go to Start - Programs - Proxy manager - Disable Proxy
after a few seconds IE should work through your local WiFi connection.
Thanks that fixed everything

Internet Explorer Mobile (proxy/gateway)

The network where I work uses ISA and has all workstations setup to go through the GATEWAY in order to access the WWW. They have a unsecured wireless network, and my Trinity can connect perfectly fine. I'm running Windows Mobile 6.1 and can connect to the wireless AP with no problem. When I launch Internet Explorer Mobile, it shows the default page, but complains that the page cannot be displayed when I try to go to any website - my guess is because Internet Explorer needs to be setup to use the gateway/proxy (just like the workstations are). But I do not see any options to type in the name and port of the gateway/proxy. Do i need a seperate proxy application for the phone/IE or are there registry settings or some other settings elsewhere that I cant find that need setting?
Any ideas?
Nevermind, ignore me... i forgot that there was a proxy settings section under Settings > Connections. my bad.

For Android users:100% working Internet via adhoc wifi network without any app!

This video shows you how to configure your laptop/pc and your android device to reverse tether Internet using wifi adhoc networks.It's working fine for me on my samsung galaxy gt-s5360 and i can download from google play ..
video : youtu.be/Mi2RAkPcNi4
or you can look for my channel on youtube adhoc327
----------------------------------------------------------------
Step by step wifi reverse tethering using adhoc networks :
Here i try to write down the steps shown on the video:
Step1 : Configuring laptop/pc :
1- First, you need to create an adhoc network:
Open network and sharing center on control panel
click on manage wireless networks then add , a windows is shown, select create an ad hoc network click on next then input a network name(for example name it 015) then choose the security type (you can select either open or WEP) then check the box save this network
2- now reopen network and sharing center on control panel then change adapter settings.
Right click on your internet network and click on properties then select the tab sharing and check the "allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection" (choose wireless network, if multiple networks are shown).
check also the "allow other network users to control or disable the shared internet connection"
next click on setting and check all items..
3- Right click on wireless network connection and double click on "internet protocol version 4(tcp/ipv4)"
on the new window select use the following ip address 192.168.137.1
and subnet mask 255.255.255.0
now activate your new adhoc network (if not already) go to the network icon next to the clock and select it and connect.
Congratulation your laptop/pc is now configured .
-----------------------------------------------
Step 2 : Configuring the android device :
Now, we will configure the android device to make it able to access this new adhoc network
Go to setting on the menu of your device
then wireless and networks then wi-fi settings then activate wi-fi .
Right click and choose advanced .
Check the "Use static IP"and fill in :
ip address: 192.168.137.5 (for example)
Gateway : 192.168.137.1
Netmask : 255.255.255.0
DNS 1: 192.168.137.1
DNS 2 : 172.168.137.1
then right click and save.
Finally, click on the adhoc network (and input password if you use WEP security) then connect.
And that's all ...enjoy internet with Google Play download supported...
If you encounter problems connecting ,try to disable then to reactivate wifi, else reboot your android device.

Ad-hoc networking
Ok, noob warning! Forgive me if this ain't the right place for this.
I'd like to set up an ad-hoc network between my HTC One S and my Macbook Pro. I have enabled the network on the Mac, but the phone does not seem to see it. Any chance of that happening without rooting? I'm too much of a noob to try that.
The purpose is to use my phone to browse my computer when a wifi network is unavailable. I'm not trying to tether for data.
Thanks!
good one
That's nice but the problem is that my galaxy young cannot detect the connection I've made in my laptop so what can I do now ??

A50 Hotspot Broadcast channel

Hello,
My device is A505F/DS
Mobile hotspot is generally weak in range.
To get less interference from other 2.4ghz signals, would be better if i had the ability to change the Broadcast channel.
Is it possible??
You probably figured this out already, but if you go to Mobile Hotspot under settings, you need to disable Wi-Fi sharing option. Then go to Configure Mobile Hotspot (from 3 dot menu) and click Show advanced options. You can set channel from tehre now.
You can set channel only if Wi-Fi sharing is DISABLED!!! If it's enabled, the option to change channel will not appear.
nb! Wi-Fi sharing has nothing to do with sharing internet over hotspot, so it doesn't need to be on.

It doesn't show me the advanced settings checkmark with wifi sharing off by default
