This isn't working for me. #5

I have the developers certificate, and it is all compiled and coming up fine on my iphone 4.

But if I understand it correctly: if I'm away with no WIFI connection (like in a car), when I start the iProxy app I should get an IP address shown in the app, right? (coming in from the 3G connection). Then once that shows I set up the SOCKS5 with my laptop to catch the connection. I don't need WIFI, I should just be able to power my laptop via my iphone's 3G network. Right?

You do need a WiFi connection between the computer and the phone. Usually this means creating an ad-hoc network on your laptop for the phone to join.

Please follow the instructions. They should be quite thorough.

Thanks for the reply..... so, I get that. But when I start up the iproxy app on my iphone, using the 3G network. Shouldn't that generate the IP address and Port #? Because mine is always blank.

tcurdt commented 13 years ago

No, it shouldn't. Please just follow the instructions to establish the connection between the two devices. (The same information is also available behind the (i) info button in the app.)

Maybe just a glitch?
