Hy Guys,,,
I Had a problem with my Xperia Mini Pro. I used a Access Point to extend my office Wifi coverage area. Laptop and Computer works fine, except all Android device, include my XMP. But my XMP work fine and connect to Internet with main access point.

Hi,
Can anyone give me some idea how can I turn my X10 mini into a wifi hotspot? I found many people are asking similar question but I did not notice any good answer. So this is possible or not?
Use Barnacle: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=740698
search for it in the market
you could found that information in the wiki or with some searching in this post in the x10 mini/pro General Forum
I use Barnacle Wifi Tether as Cyberwuulf already said.
It supports WEP encryption on my x10 mini pro, and works perfectly every time, super fast - And ive sent in a few good ideas to the dev which he promised to implement in the future.
It works with my X10 Mini with PC connection, but fails to get connected by Xperia X8, and I'm still working out with other phones tomorrow... Please note that my X10 Mini is running 2.1, rooted.

And I got it works with my X8 too, before I read the following Ad-hoc mode only:
Can you make Barnacle use infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc?
If one could make an Android phone look like a real access point (rather than an ad-hoc network), then it would improve compatibility and allow better security. Unfortunately, to make a wifi client behave like an access point requires fundamental changes in the device driver. The hardware vendors of the wireless interfaces present in most Android devices did not include such capability.
What one can do, however, is use Connectify to make their laptop running Windows 7 appear as a real access point. In combination with Barnacle it should be possible to connect many restricted devices (PS3, DSi, etc.) to the Internet.

and my damn old Palm TX and a notebook running Vista surf the Internet with both Android phones with Barnacle, and it's a freeware ;-)

Thanks for the help guys
I have looked around and have found no solution for this.
Hi everyone, I have recently bought an xperia mini pro and I love this phone, I really fell in love with it.
But, I cant seem to get stable wifi connections, the connections keep disappearing or in one second the conection is strong and then becomes to weak.
Also, I cant connect to my home internet!
My SSID doesn't even appear on the list of available networks!
This seems to be a recurrent problem because I switched the phone for a new one and the problem prevails.
I know its not the router cause I could connect with my old phone with no problems at all. I tried wifi keep alive and other stability apps but with no success...
The phone is updated to Android 2.3.4.
Can anyone help please??
If anyone has the solution it must be you guys!
Thank you!
about the ssid, i had that problem on my home. i change and add the mac adress of my sk17a to the router and that fix the problem. try that.
Hi everybody,
first of all I have to say that the ICS-upgrade for XP was worth the waiting. It is super and many things improved. Especially battery life and the sound went better. ..
But here comes my problem:
When I connect the phone via wifi to my Fritz!Box 7390 (WPA2) I can use the network for a few seconds, but then it crashes. When I make an AP to the box with another router or a computer I can use the network normally, but I cant download anything from the Play Store. It just stucks at downloading. Browsing is ok. Sounds strange does it?
Upnp is enabled and I also tryed to forward the needed ports manually with no sucess. Of course the box has the newest firmware.
Do you have any idea?
Same problem with my Xperia P and FritzBox 7230 - tested it with WPA security and everything is fine for the moment. Can you give this a try? I´m not sure about that problem, maybe it is FritzBox related thing?

Yes, I just tryed that. It works, but when I switch to WPA I can't acess internet from my laptop anymore. Same problem with my gf's laptop. I also guess that this problem is related to the box. I 'll write an email to AVM. When I got new infos, I'm gonna post it here (assuming that collosus won't delete this thread )
I have the same issue with a FritzBox 7340. But it's firmware almost identical to the 7390. I'll test some stuff later today and report back.
Xperia P + Fritz Box
Hi Guys,
I also updated my Xperia P and started to have trouble with my Fritz Box Wireless (7340).
The problem described above seems the same as I concluded.
Does anyone have an update on this?
One strange thing, my wife also has a Xperia P and that one doesn't seem to f**k up the Wlan.
The same with Xperia U + ICS + Fritz!Box 7390

My Xperia U worked flawlessly with Ginger Bread over my Fritz!Box
Immediately after updating I got problemcs with the WiFi network and not only the mobile but the rest of the devices using WiFi were disconnected.
If the problem was on the side of the phone, in any circumstances it should freeze the network
Image that it could be possibe to block a WiFi network just turning on a buggy phone.
There must be something wrong with the Fritz!Box...
I had the same problem with the 6.1.1.B.1.10 on the Xperia U
It's an often recurring problem with this version of the firmware.
The solution was turning of 802.11n and only leave 802.11b+g enabled on the FritzBox
Some other people have had success with changing the security mode from WPA2 to something else
I solved it through opening a guest network on the Fritz!Box. It is secured with WPA. Found no other way.
Interesting test with a second Fritz!box
I have connected a second Fritz!Box 7570 to the first causing the problem ( Fritz!Box 7390).
They are connected in cascade: The 7570 has DSL, DHCP and NAT disabled and its IP address is in the range of the first one (7390) and it is connected to an ethernet port of the other one
I can connect now my Xperia to the 7570 wireless network and everything seems to work so far.
If I connect instead to the 7390 WiFi it freezes it
Hi,there.
As title,the hotspot on my mini pro doesn't work though the changelog said it was fixed.
The problem is that my laptop and my neoV could connect it,but both were unable to access the Internet.
I even tested it on CM7/CM9 and the hotspot worked well.
I did search here and FXP website,however,I don't see any solutions.
Does anyone experience the same issue?
Thanks in advance.
No reply means that I'm the only one suffering this issue?:crying:
BTW,this problem still exists even when I'm using FXP206 CM10.

I always use the kernel inside FXP's zip file.
So,may I ask which phone you are using?And the device connecting your phone could access the Internet?
Since my hotspot works fine when I use other roms like CM7/CM9 and stock.
Solved.I think I found the root cause.
My phone's hotspot function is limited because I am required to access the Internet via a specific proxy provided by our carrier.
Therefore I need to set additional settings on my laptop and neoV while connecting my phone.And now,yes,they both work well.:laugh:
My apologies for my stupid question.
Hmm...the weird thing is that I don't need the additional settings when using other roms.

when I turn hotspot on, it disable the wifi
Hi!
I use CM 9 on sony live walkman. Default kernel.
I do not use proxy, but when I active the hotspot, my cell phone disable the wifi.
So, when hotspot is turned on, I can connect with my notebook... but (of course) can't access the internet...
And If I turn on (again) the wifi, it automaticaly disable the hotspot...
Does anyone knows how to solve that?
Thanks a lot!
Hi guys.
I've always used xperia mini pro as my first phone.
Now i've changed it with Moto G, but i'd like to reactivate my mini pro for the second sim.
The fact is that I can't make wifi work properly: if i look for a wifi network i can find all my neighborhood wifi, except mine (i used to connect to it with mini pro) and i'm sure wifi is working both on router and mini pro because i've tried other networks and devices.
How can i make mini pro to find my home wifi? I've tried to change rom, kernel, reset the device to stock firmware, but i still can see all the networks except mine...
Any suggestion?
