No portable hotspot option on FRF84b

[JohnnyDepth]

See above, I originally started this thread for an earlier build, but I am wondering if the same thing still applies to FRG01B, since press releases I've seen on the Droid 2 say it has a portable hotspot option; do you think that option is only going to be ad-hoc, and not infrastructure?

You do understand that the Wireless tether apk available
(and mentioned above) basically does the same thing in that it
sees your Droid phone as a wifi hotspot?

I connected all my wireless devices using it.

TBH I haven't tried it recently, but last time I tried Wireless Tether I couldn't connect my PSP to the Droid, because the PSP supports only Ad-Hoc mode with PSP to PSP for head-to-head gaming, and not PSP to Droid for internet access, and when I tried Infrastructure, the PSP wouldn't see my Droid. I'll try it again tonight.

So after about an hour of searching, I've once again come to the conclusion that wireless tethering is not an option between the Droid and the PSP, even with Wireless Tether, unless someone can prove me wrong...

That is correct. Droid can only do ad-hoc wireless internet sharing (or bluetooth or wired), and PSP can only connect to infrastructure APs.

The only way to get around that is to use a laptop in between.

People droid 1 does have an option for tethering not for hotspot though! FYI im not rooted nor have an apps that does that. I can tether from the 2.2 os update. Now portable hotspot you guys dont like rooting like me , going to have to wait for developer to port one in the following month like they did with bluetooth sharing
