n80 as a "modem" for Wifi

3 replies · 2,669 views · Started 15 November 2006

Hello

do u think it's possible to make some sort of "invers ip-passtrough" ?
I mean ai have a laptop, with no wireless abilities and i connected my n80 via usb
I can use internet from the laptop if i connect via 3g/gprs but i was wondering if i can do the same but trough Wifi ?

i know that a usb wifi adapter or an wifi pcmcia card would solve the problem, but i was trying to figure out a solution with what i have now 😊

in a thread about sharing an n80 wifi connection for a pda (through bluetooth) Lovher mentioned it's possible only for a pc, and that's what i'm looking for ... but he didn't elaborate on this 😞

can anyone help me , pls ?

thank you and best regards to all

I think its very difficult, probably impossible.

For this kind of solution, N80 has to contain a specifical tecnology... And I guess it doesn't.

Obviously, I.M.H.O.
