Using s2 as a Wifi modem on OSX - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Subject speaks for itself.. Just found an old mini that doesn't have wifi, the standard wifi tethering doesn't seem to register, i've been looking about for some apps but i can only find 3g tethering..
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

No service after rooting

When i root my phone with SuperOneClick, it doesn't connect to the network. Is there any solution to this?
Thanks in advance

Yeah i did but i can't acces the google document with the correct settings, so how would i know the correct ones?

Well i am using the correct apn settings now, still no change.
Maybe try reflashing with seus....it sucks but it works

S0ci0 I have the exact same problem. I am in New Zealand, using a rooted phone and my signal works 30% of the time, cutting in and out. If i am in a pickle i go airplane mode on/off and sometimes it works. But sucks not getting texts or calls..
Is there a real solution for us that anybody knows of?

Fixed IP?

Is there any way to assign a fixed ip instead of getting it by dhcp? I looked into wireless/advanced like in galaxy s2 but no luck.
Thank you

Yes there is but its almost hidden. You have to touch and hold which ever wifi network you want to access. A menu will popup with the option to Modify network config.
If you tell us the make and model of your router I'm sure someone will walk you through the process. I have my tab on a fixed IP as well.

Thank you, it was holding the wifi network.
I wanted to set it in my tablet, not via router. I already know how to assign it with router. Thank you anyway.

Going mad trying to use tethering!

Please help, i am using xperia s with stock ics and i am completely unable to share internet with my laptop. I have tried usb tethering, wifi hotspot, bluetooth tethering even downloaded usb tether pro and nothing simply works . What to do?

is your driver instaled correctly?
Yes i think they are. Usb tethering aside, When i try using wifi hotspot it connects properly with the laptop, signal strength also shows excellent but there is still the 'no Internet access' pop up on the laptop. I have also switched on mobile data and 3G

Wifi tethering is broken in the ICS stock ROM for most (if not all) Xperia devices . I've been trying various custom ROMS for my Xperia Active today but just encounter other issues (e.g. camera doesn't work with PAranoid Android)
Hi, I havnt used the stock ics build, but if u need teathering to work try installin Erachter Rom. I always use portable hotspot and works fine(as long as I have data reception). Not sure about Bluetooth or usb teathering though.
