pls help. samantha84 said:Its Vista. I just have a external wireless usb thingy hahaha. Ive pinged my computer off of a friends cell phone before not too long ago. But it just isnt letting me connect even though my computer is seeing it and saying I'm connect. Its a Samsung Replenish. Thank you so much for even responding to my question.
I'm wondering if its just this Foxfi App. Ive heard it works great for some and bad for others. Would be nice to be able to use internet on my computer for free though. I feel like I'm doing something wrong since I can see the wireless name and can connect to it. Maybe something under settings on my computer or phone perhaps that I havent seen.
That's true, foxfi does behave differently with different phones. I myself are running a DROID bionic, and it does run flawless with foxfi. I cant remember if vista is the same but all i can do is a walkthrough with win7. Pull up your network and sharing center, change adapter settings, wireless network connection, wireless properties, and check that its trying to run ipv4 and ipv6. Also in the connection status box, look in properties at the bottom and check that you have all installed options. check settings under foxfi and see if there's anything that you might think needs changed. Also try another hotspot app. It could be any of that. Again, I'm not sure if vista is the same in this aspect, but give it a try.94lt1 said:
