Hello, I was searching for a long time how to enable ad-hoc connections on my HTC chacha and finally I found it!, so I decided to share my experience with you. btw I found many ways but guess what?! most of them didn’t work :( lets stop talking and start enjoying the unlimited internet connection on your mobile :) Ubuntu Users First of all you had to install hostapd “In simple words, hostapd allows you to create software wifi access points allowing decent amount of configuration options. In rest of this post, I will show how to create a software access point in Linux using hostapd and share your internet to the devices through it” To Install hostapd just type this command on the terminal sudo apt-get install hostapd Then, open a text editor program, for example gedit. Copy the following into it. interface=wlan0 driver=nl80211 ssid=MyAP hw_mode=g channel=11 wpa=1 wpa_passphrase=MyPasswordHere wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP wpa_ptk_rekey=600 Please don’t forget to fill in the name of your network after “ssid=”, as well as the password after “wpa_passphrase=”. After all these, save the file as hostapd.conf in your home folder. Then create a normal ad-hoc network from the wireless menu from the top bar click on “Create New Wireless Network” after the new network created successfully proceed to the next and the final step Now, in your terminal: sudo hostapd hostapd.conf Turn the wifi connection on in your devices and enjoy the fast network share!
