I have installed Connectify on my Windows 7 laptop. The Connectify network shows up for the ipad and it says it's connected, but no data flows. iPad does not have a working internet connection (using the Connectify Wifi connection). My laptop is using ATT Broadband Mobile as it's Internet connection. Ideas to make it work?

    Thanks DrifterK.

    Can you expand / elaborate on some of your instructions.

    The ATT mobile broadband signal is received on the HP un2420 Mobile Broadband Module Network Device -- it's a 3g signal. My laptop has a Intel Wifi Link 1000 BGN card, but the ATT signal does not come in on that card.

    And I'm trying to use Connectify to get a signal over to the ipad.

    Up till now, the Mobile Broadband network does NOT show up on Connectify, only the Wifi connection (coming in on the Intel Wifi card).

    So I install ATT Comm Mgr ... and I don't really follow the rest of your instructions. I guess Connectify is acting as my wifi router ... do you think ATT Comm Mgr is going to help get the ATT signal to show up on Connectify?

Try to change the internet settings of your iPad from Wifi Connection to Broadband since you are using ATT Broadband. Also, use the PC settings instead of mobile settings on your ATT mobile so that your iPad and ATT would connect to each other...

If you want to use the same connection from at&t ..you have to download and install the AT&T communication manager for windows & ..and after that make the connection ..
Here is the link ..

SOURCE: I have installed Connectify on

Hello.

Your firewall on your Windows 7 laptop could be interfering.

Try disabling the firewall to see if any difference.

If data to iPad then flows, you know that the firewall is interfering. It's risky to leave your laptop without firewall protection, but perhaps another firewall would work better. Firewalls that I have used (have not tested with your setup, however) are Comodo and ZoneAlarm. Outpost is another free firewall.

Hope this resolves your problem.

I have installed connectify on my windows 7 toshiba laptop. when i start it, the connection work well on my ipad for about 5 minutes and after it s get disconnected. each time i just close the wifi access...

1- I don't know what connectify is or even why you would use it. Your router can or should be able to handle wireless communications in your WiFi network. Once you have your wifi network setup under the router then go into settings on your ipad and point it to the right network and it should connect.
2- On your toshiba it should connect on it's own as well, get the wifi connection setup the go into network connection and point it to your wireless network in the house.

Like i said i don't know why or what this other program is or even for but see no good reason to even use it.

Hope this helps

SETTING UP A WIRELESS PRINTER WITHOUT A WIRELESS ROUTER - WINDOWS 7
Install Virtual Router first "Turn any Windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2 Computer into a Wifi Hot Spot."
EditByBSEditor: Virtual Router turns any Windows 7 or Windows 2008 R2 Computer into a Wifi Hot SPOT using Windows 7's Wireless Hosted Network (Virtual Wifi) technology.
The Wireless Network Create/shared with Virtual Router uses WPA2 Encryption, and there is not way to turn off that encryption. This is actually a feature of the Wireless Hosted Network API's built into Windows 7 and 2008 R2 to ensure the best security possible.
You can give your "virtual" wireless network any name you want, and also set the password to anything. Just make sure the password is at least 8 characters. http://www.brothersoft.com/virtual-router-327895.html Then install Connectify-Me Connectify is an easy to use software router for Windows 7 computers. After downloading and installing the lightweight application, Connectify utilizes your computers' built in Wi-Fi card to wirelessly share any available Internet connection: a cable modem, a cellular card, or even another Wi-Fi network. Other Wi-Fi enabled devices including laptops, smart phones, music players, and gaming systems can see and join your Connectify hotspot just like any other Wi-Fi access point and are kept safe and secure by password-protected WPA2 Encryption. http://www.connectify.me/ Then reboot computer

When I install connectify I lose all internet connectivity, when I uninstall it, I get normal internet connectivity back

This problem is likely being caused by something that Connectify installls called the Connectify Lightweight Filter, which you can find if you right-click on your USB modem connection and select 'properties'. There is a list which says 'Connect using the following items:" and it is in there. Un-check it, and that should work fine, at least it did for me. The bigger question, which I am looking for an answer to, is how to get Connectify to work with my 3G USB dongle, without creating this problem.

I want to play my ps3 online but i only have a mobile 3 dongle and a windows 7 laptop please can you help

Hi there.

I have a solution for you. Download the program i have linked below called connectiify. This program allows you to broadcast a wireless network using the wireless network card in your pc, which you are not using currently as your internet comes from the usb stick. Set up a network and connect to it with your PS3. If you have any further issues don't hesitate to post further.

I downloaded Connectify to share a Clear mobile connection on my laptop with my pc and Kindle. The PC sees the Connectify network and validates, but no IP address is assigned and so there is no network...

you dont say what windows version you have? have you tried creating a network bridge between the phone connection and your wireless ,as you also dont say how you have the mobile connected either, then enable internet sharing on the computer.
