It doesn't work the way you think, simply enable DHCP in your BSNL modem and then connect your BSNL modem to your WIFI using cable (obviously you have done that already), next enable security in your WIFI, WPA2 is good and SSID , rest can be anything.

Now , in your phone, try to connect to it, give password and then phone will take IPs from modem which will enable internet in your phone through WIFI from modem.

it's not easy with connectify either .i created the hotspot but still it is unable connect.

i don't understand what you want to say "connect your BSNL modem to your WIFI using cable" .BSNL modem is a ethernet modem and wifi is an usb adaptor.
i don't have DHCP enabled.



sometimes if i enter wrong security key intentionally,it says authentication failed.it also get stuck at "connecting" often.

Dude, that is a wifi adapter. You need a wifi router.

Still, you can share your internet with mobile.

You need to create an Ad-Hoc connection.

And when you created ad hoc connection, did you share the current internet profile with ICS? you need to set ICS to share with Wireless Connection.

My bad, I thought its an AP he bought , moreover screenshot was not available when I replied. You could have purchased a cheap router (around Rs. 900 for TP link one) instead of this USB wifi adapter. Now ad-hoc is way to go ..good luck.

yes ,i was trying the adhoc right from the start but it was not connecting .i have connected now after so much headache.
i set the mobile IP as static and set it as 192.168.137.2 and gateway 192.168.137.1 .it is now connected but sometimes it says DNS failed when i try some sites.
i have set the dns in the mobile.

Must be an ip conflict issue.

try mobile ip as 192.168.137.10(or some other 2 digit) & some mobile devices have issues with wpa2 so try using wpa1 or wep(not recommended though).
