  • I think this may not work with mac? it shows up on my friends mac under devices but not under networks and it does not give him internet...

  • @moviesmyway not all devices or computers will be supported since this is not a real router...

  • @LAHrebirth when I try to bridge it says I need to select 2 high speeds that aren't being used by internet connection.

  • what do i do wend it says on demand besides hotspot on xp

  • @monte9836 yes, unless you have a second ethernet port you can use to share internet from that...

  • @beyondinfinty14 sorry! i meant that using this method would make you have a slow internet connection...

  • @beyondinfinity14 theoretically you should be able to do this, but you can't...

    bluetooth is a slow data transfer method and using this wouldn't make you have a slow internet connection... and atop that, you can only be a few feet away from where you have the bluetooth setup... so the bottom line, no.. sorry!

  • HII NO1MACFAN ..i am impressed by ur video just wanted to ask...that i am not having wifi on my pc can i use it with bluetooth....plzz reply soon!

  • @NO1MACFAN does the router have to be wireless?
