IPhone :: Share Personal Hotspot To Ethernet Devices Using A Laptop As A Bridge?
Jul 6, 2012
I have an iPhone 4 on 3 UK, with unlimited data and unlimited tethering. I also have an LG smart tv, but no Wifi dongle with it, just standard RJ45 ethernet port.
Can I use my iPhone as a hotspot, connected to my laptop either via Wifi or USB, and set up an Ad-hoc network on the laptop to allow my tv internet access via ethernet cable? The laptop is running on windows 7 if that makes any difference.
I have an iPhone 5 and whenever i connect it using a USB cord to my laptop to use my Personal Hotspot, my laptop accept it and everything goes well until i want to use the internet. Whenever i want to use the internet the pages dont load for instance google doesn't load and then it tells me no internet access but on my desktop it shows that I have internet.
My toshiba laptop is running windows vista, and it actually says it's connected through wifi to the personal hotspot on my iPhone 4s, but I am unable to use the Internet at all. When connected via USB, I have no troubles whatsoever. When I check the different connections on the laptop, the USB connection says "local and Internet", while the wifi connection says "local" only. I'm sure this is an issue with the laptop, but I'm severely challenged when it comes to computers.
I have entered medical ID info and shared apps links into the Health app on my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.1). I am using an iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1.1) to gather sleep data and am sharing it with the Health app. When I open the Health app on that phone (same Apple ID as iPhone 6) none of the data from other apps and medical ID are present on that phone. Is this working as designed, or is there a switch somewhere that will allow me to have one dataset for the Health app across all devices logged in with my Apple ID?
Noticed that greyed out was Ethernet and Ethernet settings under Wireless and network settings.Was wondering if that was suppose to be used for anything.
I have an Australian Iphone and an ipad from australia, and as soon as I put an o2 sim card in my iphone the "personal hotspot" setting has disapeared from the settings menu.
Is iOS6 gonna have some sort of bridge type of capability like the blackberry bridge ? because something like that would be useful for users with an iPad and iPhone.
i have a iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S, i have an issue regarding the "Personal hotspot". Both are iOS 5.0.1, "BUT" my iPhone 4 has the Personal hotspot and my iPhone 4S doesnt have it... i tried to reset the phone, reset the network settings, but still i cant find the Personal hotspot on my iPhone 4S..
As a t-mobile user I used the personal hotspot for about 18 months without any problems till end of february! Yesterday, after a holiday break, it refuses to work!
I switched to w-lan hotspot, this worked! Could it be that iOS 5.1 caused this?!
The existing KB article on troubleshooting an USB connection to a Mac makes no sense to me on Lion with my MacBook Air.It says to mark the ethernet connection inactive. I've got the Wi-Fi and the iPad network connections and marking either inactive and then active has no effect on the USB tethering.
The iPad entry says cable disconnected even when my iPad is connected. iTunes starts and can sync to the iPad and tethering works over bluetooth or Wi-Fi, but I'd like to get USB tethering working so I can shut off my Air's radios completely and tether to my iPad 3.
With assistance from someone in an AT&T store, I set up a personal hotspot to tether to my IPAD while traveling. It works great ,but, there is no password spot to enter a password and it doesn't ask for one, how do I add one? I have read many tutorials and it says they are required,my screen looks like those it he tutorials but minus the password spot?
