How to Tether Droid(w/o net) to Laptop(w/net)

[Free]

How do you tether a Droid to your Laptop? I'm outside of the Verizon/3g network. I have tried ad-hoc and was unsuccessful. Does anyone have an idea how to do this... Is there an app. or a way to set up your laptop as a hotspot or act like a router?


I'm using Win 7 and Mota Droid Rooted

Thanks!

I know there's an app called Easy Tether. I've got it downloaded but not tested yet. Just a thought. Maybe you tried it already and it didn't do the trick.

Whoops, just realized you want to draw the network signal from your laptop to your droid so forget my suggestion. Sorry!

No worry's... That's the main problem I'm having is searching for the answer. Everything I type comes up with that type of solution. I have found two programs that may work. But, their having compatibility problems with my OS/computer. They need Win 7 with Win 7 certified hardware. (My Laptop is a Toshiba M700/ and it came with vista) This is a ...

Programs are;

Connectify - Turn your Windows 7 laptop into a Wi-Fi Hotspot - Frequently Asked Questions

Virtual Router - Wifi Hot Spot for Windows 7 / 2008 R2

Okay those programs are the right one but only on Win 7 certified systems. So I still have the problem but heads up for anyone else.

Hey I'll take anything bluetooth pairing, ad-hoc/apps-hack, or voo-doo curse... anything?

Like I said before the other programs work but not on my computer. Its works though a friends laptop but not mine. Nor will it the "Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN" wifi card is not supported by these programs which are very cool by the way.

But a second problem has shown up I can log in to my gmail or google market place. Is there a good reason why? I'm out of the U.S. right now and am in the mid-east. Is there a work around?

Thanks for any help or guess

How is your laptop getting its network? Hard wired or wireless?

Wired.....

Why not just pop a wireless router on your wired network and let it serve your phone?
