Hello,
I've been trying to use tethering of my 3G phone to get WiFi on my Prime. I am using an app from the market that creates an Adhoc network to do the tethering. The app is working fine as I verified by connecting my Laptop to my phone's 3G and got it working.
The Transformer Prime detects the Ad Hoc network but just doesn't want to connect to it!
Any suggestions?
Works fine for me (prime tethered to 4G HTC Rezound) .. It's probably just your app. Try using wifi-tether.

Yup, not working for me either. It sees it and let's me select the wifitether network but it just says "saved". It won't let me connect to it. I'll keep trying

I get that sometimes too...but a long hold on the wifi line has options to connect/forget/modify.....at different times, I've had to use each of them....but I'm always eventually been able to get tethered to my Win6.5 TouchPro 2.
The app I use is WMWiFiRouter.....it works great....but it's not a free app

You don't need that fix....That's one thing that 21 did....was to incorporate that fix into the update.
i think i may have your answer. i couldn't tether my prime to my htc evo 4g either. then i enabled routing fix under wifi tether settings and now I'm able to tether prime no problems at all. hope that works btw I'm using wifi tether 3.1 beta 6

As stated above, a long hold on the WiFi icon will give you three options...Hit "connect"...usually solves the issue

tried a bunch of times...
i tried to connect a transformer prime to a mac book pro as access point with no success.
i got a "saved" message instead of "connected"... hit "connect" doesn't do the trick either.
tried using a nexus s as access point using easy wifi tether, and i've been able to connect my prime with no problem.
no security in both case. if ad hoc connection doesn't work please specify what access point you try to connect to. it might help to solve the problem.
ad hoc works with joikuspot premium on nokia n97 mini
In joikuspot premium settings you just have to choose for WEP Open. That way the tf201 will accept it when you put in the network key you get.

PDANet works on mine. I think wifi tether will work if you're rooted. I am not rooted, so cannot say for sure.
I just rooted. I installed wifi tether. The phone makes it look like its working but if it does not show up in the network list of any of my devices like my laptop and my tablet. Anyone have wifi tether working after root?
I used the 3.2 beta of WiFi tether on my rooted photon and it worked great for me.
Which WiFi tether are you using? Who is the author? Did you get it from the market?
Nevermind, I picked up Barnacle Wifi from the market and it appears to work fine. I am posting this message from my Macbook over the barnacle wifi on my photon

Scratch this! The Barnacle program does work but when you turn it off and I did this twice to repeat it, I had to reboot my Macbook, my phone and for whatever reason why my home router in order to get my Macbook and Photon to connect to my home network again. So I guess back to square 1, anyone know a program that works properly? I have tried many now including different versions of WiFi tether and my Photon will not show up on any of my device networks.

I downloaded out directly from their website.
i had to change the power settings then it worked fone 10+mbps when retrieving media
I used pdanet to USB tether and ir0t worked great. It was almost too easy!
I can confirm that WiFi Tether if you go to there website the 3.1 Beta 2 appears to work perfectly on a rooted Photon. My phone now shows up as a network and with security on and everything my tablet and laptop surfed the net no problem.
I disagree 3.2 doesnt work , the best you can get is adhoc and it tells you that access control can not be enabled
I can confirm that my paid-for copy of PDAnet 3.02 works on my Windows laptop w/ my non-rooted Photon over USB. However, PDAnet does not do wifi tethering.

What does your comment even mean. So is only adhoc bad? What is the use of access control?
What would be the ideal situation? Sorry for asking so many questions but I have never used the wifi tether 3.2 app before.

Just a heads-up for anyone trying to connect to WiFi Tether with some/most Android tablets (like my Xoom). You might need to modify your device to be able to join ad-hoc networks. For the Xoom, it was as easy as replacing the wpa_supplicant binary.
Before I changed that file, my Xoom couldn't see the wireless network that my MoPho was broadcasting.
Hey everyone, just wanted to let you rooted android users out there know that you can tether to your touchpad pretty easily.
Go download the newest version of wifi tether 3.1beta5
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
Install it
Run it
Menu-Settings
Change Device-Profile
Select Samsung Fascinate
Change Setup-Method
Select Softap for Samsung (Master)
Back to main screen
And now you are good to go. I have used this on my fascinate running the community rom, also read that someone had it running on their charge as well.
Have fun tethering.
Post back if this does or doesn't work for you, what device, and what rom/kernal you are running.

I cannot seem to connect Touchpad to any adhoc WiFi network. Really would like a fix for this one. iPads and iPhones connect to adhoc networks just fine.
I would manually enter the ssid, broadcast id, network id and ip address and forget dealing with dhcp if it's not working
maybe reboot? Mine works flawlessly on my android and touchpad
From what Im gathering, my HTC hero uses ad-hoc and the touchpad doesnt pick that up. Shame, but I have a feeling Im SOL.

Some android phones can only broadcast wifi via adhoc mode which is incompatible with the touchpad. Its not a matter of what program you choose, if your phone can only do ad-hoc wifi then it wont work. Try using bluetooth (Wireless Tether 2.0.7)

Wifi tethering the touchpad works great using my HTC incredible (running CM7). Must be the ad-hoc issue others have mentioned.
i had issues getting my tp to connect to the wireless hotspot from my desire s.
as soon as i changed the security type from wpa2 to wpa it started working.

This does not work for me Either-it keeps saying 'Tethering but with Errors-see Log' and the log cannot load the Sofap part...
I have a feeling some phones can only broudcast WiFi in Ad-Hoc-Like my HTC HERO It may be time to say goodbye to it after all...I was actually hoping the TouchPad would mean i dont need a new phone as most of my stuff (good Flash Web Browser/Email/Games/Whatsapp/Facebook) would be sorted between the two devices....Oh well....
I believe the easiest way to tether from your rooted Android to the Touchpad is if you're running CM7, to use the built in wi-fi tether as it works flawlessly!
i dont see this option for fascinate

i only see WEXT (ad-hoc)

I just rooted mine today. And I am noticing that getting a client to pull a DHCP assigned IP is somewhat quirky.
I got my Transformer tablet to pull an IP couple of times now. Initially I dsiabled running apps that may be trying to use wifi - Xmarks, Skype, etc... So try nuking some running apps.
It may be that I merely need the tell the transformer to forget the 'AndroidTether' SSID, and reconnect to it. That seemed to work the second time, I'm going to try with my some other clients and see if I can make a tad more relaible.

Yeah, actually after I posted, I looked at some other search results, and saw wwjoshdew's thread (that dude is excited!). And enabled both options. I type this via my EVO 3D using my work laptop (XP pro), and can say that my Transformer tablet, and my kids' iPod touches have all connected using wireless tether.

Just need to lock it down now. And go donate.

could always try barnacle tether as well, that one works for me when I couldn't get wireless tether working.
barnacle works well for an adhoc... i also have a problem connecting at home with any wifi app even the hotspot hack.. it was driving me bonkers but... when i wasn't home, it would work...
i finally came to the conclusion that because i live in a condo and there are 10 different wireless networks. those routers seem to squash my evo3d's network.. did the same with the OG evo.. making it hell to try to tether without a usb cable... so guys if your in an area with alot of wifi networks try wifi tethering elsewhere and see if it works.. hope this helps..
Just thought I'd chime in here and say the reason your not connecting to your wifi app of choice or the hotspot hack is not due to there being multiple wireless networks around you.

This could definitely be it, I have a Vizio TV that came with a wireless subwoofer and rear surround speakers. For the life of me I couldn't figure our why my laptop could never connect to my home router when I was in that room. Some days it would work great but most it wouldn't connect or I would get terrible throughput. I even replaced the router once. It never dawned on my since I almost always have the TV on when I'm on my laptop that the wireless subwoofer would be the problem until I turned the TV off and my network instantly improved. Turned TV back on and crap network. I unplugged the wireless card from the TV and haven't had a problem sense.

That just means your sub woofer may have not been magnetically shielded. Also you could have just changed your routers frequency or just moved it to a different location. But a wireless sub woofer interfering with a router is understandable. But not being able to connect to a wireless network because of to many wireless networks is not true.

Of course I was! haha. I freaking love being able to tether for free!
Ever since my Samsung Moment in Dec of 2010!!!
I used wireless tether without any problem on my old droid X, but now I'm having connection issues. My Asus transformer can see my Rezound just fine and connect, but my in dashoard Galaxy Tab doesn't see it at all.
I've tried the current beta of Wireless Tether, 2.0.7, Barnacle, and Open Garden, all with the same results.
We need to nail down what specific settings those successfully tethering are using.
Please list the following.
1. What app you are using.
2. What settings you are using (device presets, clamping, ect.).
3. What you are successful in tethering wirelessly to.
I'm going to run a few more tests, and post mine.
I don't mean to ask a dumb question but these apps just allow you to use your phones 4g on a laptop, etc. ? Are they free if you have unlimited data?
Why aren't people using Mobile hotspot to tether or am I getting confused?
To use the mobile hot spot you have to pay for it

Thanks for the post. I really need to know this too. I've tried everything but still a no go.
According to wiki ad hoc needs the same channels to work. For the people that do have it working what channels are you using in ad hoc mode.
Definition
To set up an ad-hoc wireless network, each wireless adapter must be configured for ad-hoc mode versus the alternative infrastructure mode. In addition, all wireless adapters on the ad-hoc network must use the same SSID and the same channel number.
from my newly unlocked Rezound
The problem is what devices you try to use to connect to your phone's mobile connection. I tried connecting with my Asus laptop (Windows 7) and it wouldn't connect correctly. I tried connecting with my gf's windows xp laptop and it works perfectly fine!
If you have questions about wireless tethering, please go do a bit of searching and reading, there are hundreds if threads that describe what it is.
This is a thread so we can get it working right.

I fought for days over this before this release and from my trial and endless errors Ive come to realize (very very long story short) for the time being the best work through is using "OpenGarden" from the market. Don't change any settings. Just have an open connection and use access control. Like I said. Long story short, the issue lies within encryption. Leave it open and use access control. Hope this helps.

I've successfully tethered my IPad2 to my Rezound with Wireless Tether 2.0.7.
I also tether my Ipad2 without any problems. I'm using Open Garden.
After ICS, the Prime cannot see wireless tether options. I have tried both wireless tether and barnacle on my phone and now the Prime will not see them and allow a connection to my phone.
UPDATE: so here is the basic situation for new readers - in Honeycomb on the Prime, using tether apps worked perfect and the Prime accepted ad hoc network connections so you could tether your Prime to your phone easy. Under ICS on the Prime, the ability has been removed and now the Prime will not seem to allow you to connect to ad hoc networks - those typically made via tether apps with your phone.
HEY before you post up "it works fine for me" do your research & you will see 2 key reasons why some can report it works...
1) they have "native" tether built into their phones - which means it is part of the native built in phones ability
Or
2) they are rooted & have a ROM that has tether cooked into it essentially making it "native"
If your one of these people there is no reason or need to chime in that "it works fine for me". We know & your not part of the issue here but you chiming in confuses the issue if you have 1 or 2.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
UPDATE for TF300 users - 5.11.12
According this this user, this mod works on the new TF300
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
IT HAS BEEN FIXED BY ASUS - 2.31.12
As of this day, the recent .21 OTA update gave us ad hoc functionality back natively!
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
IT HAS BEEN SOLVED - 2.3.12
Based on a post I read the other day, and that I was asked to test today, I decided to try 1 more time and it worked!! But not how I expected. I tried 3 tests... the final one worked!!
So, here is the process:
1. root is required AND make sure you have your file system app (like Root Explorer) set to make files R/W so you can edit/rename/set permissions
2. turn off wifi
3. go into system/bin and rename wpa_supplicant2 to wpa_supplicant2.bak - that's right folks.. it is NOT wpa_supplicant but wpa_supplicant2 that is running the show
3. download the wpa_supplicant file found here post #24 in my other thread
4. unzip it
5. rename it wpa_supplicant2 NOT wpa_supplicant
6. move it to system/bin and paste it
7. set permissions to xxx, x, xxx (columns) - see more details below if confused
8. go back and start up wifi
9. turn on wifi analyzer and you will see (*)AndroidTether with no red Ad Hoc notation!!
10. click to connect
11. ****ing surf and tether away!!
No rebooting needed, it is instant
I am using the good old original Wireless tether 2.0.7 app I always used! None of those beta releases and picking settings and blah blah
Yes, I was able to connect right back to my local wifi with no issues as well!
PLEASE hit the thanks button, I worked long and hard on trying to get this to work
#7 details if you don't understand permissions settings
When you set permissions (long press the file) a pop-up opens and it shows 3 columns with 3 checkboxes in each. Each "x" is to be checked
Read...Write...Execute
x..........x..........x
x......................x
x......................x
ditto. FML
Seriously people, you have to send this POS back.
By keeping it all you are doing is sending them a message saying it's ok to palm their customers off with third rate shoddy products.
There's no way ANYONE should be 'happy' with paying for functionality they're not getting.

I have a T-mobile hotspot. I left it at home, this morning I thought maybe I would try my sprint NS4G to see. My Prime found it just fine, but it wouldn't give me data cause I dont have a tethering plan. Just sayin, its working for me.
Are you trying to tether to or from prime? If you are trying "from" prime (aren't you getting internet from wifi at the first place?) you can click more -> Tethering & portable hotspot
If you are tethering to prime, then all you need is to enable wifi?
I used Bluetooth tether just a little bit ago and it worked great
Tethering works fine for me. Open Garden with the Droid X.
My tethering is working 100% perfectly using a Galaxy Nexus on T-Mobile. No problems whatsoever on ICS.

Are you trying to tether to or from prime? If you are trying "from" prime (aren't you getting internet from wifi at the first place?) you can click more -> Tethering & portable hotspot
If you are tethering to prime, then all you need is to enable wifi?

No no.. I would never tether TO the Prime, no value in that.. I tether my Prime TO my phone. Worked perfect before ICS.
And no, it is not just as simple as "then all you need is to enable wifi?" that fact is exactly why they make tether apps.

Can you or any of the other bluetooth wifi users give me some hints on setting it up? Havent been able to figure it out
From My other thread, here are my full details:
I have a rooted Verizon 4G Samsung Charge. Was using Open Garden Wifi with no problem since I received my Transformer Prime.
Wifi Analyzer on Prime finds the wifi network but It doesnt show up at all in Wireless and Network settings. FML

For those using Open Garden Wifi, what frequency channel, transmit power, and LAN network settings are you using?
I have even tried Barnacle now with no luck~!

Tether app is so you can send a data signal from that device, it isn't for connecting to a device that has data, you need to turn on wifi and locate the name of your hotspot and connect.
I can confirm also. Prime is not seeing my Wireless tether app or Barnacle. WTF is going on? this is a big deal as I use tether methods for internet to tablet away from home. What did they change to make it not work anymore?
