[Q] Connect to non-internet AP - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to connect to my 5GHz Access Point which is not connected to internet just for file sharing between mobile devices and PC.
I tried two devices:
- Motorola Atrix with CM9,
- HTC One X European with stock 4.0.3
All of them cannot connect as "Avoiding poor internet connection" specified.
OK, I have no internet connection at all and want to share files only!
How can I connect to non-internet (local) WiFi AP?
Thanks.

[Q] Howto attach to network drive ?

My WiFi router has a 32G flash drive plugged into its built-in USB port. All my Windows based PC's in my home, can access that flash drive as a network drive.
Is there any way that my Android devices (Droid 4, generic Allwinner tablet) can also access that drive? Of course, when they are connected up to my home's WiFi network.
I have been searching for such an app, unsuccessfully, though it is entirely possible that I am simply not using the correct terms when searching.
Just to add, both my devices are running ICS, and have been rooted (if that makes a difference for the answer).
You can use ES File Manager it allows for Samba / FTP file sharing it is a fairly strait forward app and you shouldn't have any difficulties using it.

No Wifi Conncetion to PC Via SMB

HI
I have a new Galaxy S5e tablet.
I have successfully made a connection via wifi to my PC using the microsoft shared app using my pc fixed ip address 192.168.1.100.
I have two other apps that both give the following error message when attempting to access my pc shared folders:
‘Connection failed with ‘Failed to connect: 0.0.0.0<00>/192.168.1.100’.Trying again.’
I have followed the instructions at:
"https://appuals"com/how-to-fix-the-windows-10-file-sharing-not-working-problem//how-to-fix-the-windows-10-file-sharing-not-working-problem/"
(remove the quotes change "com)
regarding my pc access, but I still get the error.
Does anyone know how what I need to do to connect to my pc shared folders via SMB?
Regards and thanks
I think that smb is off by default in win 10. Ensure it is on. You can check it via windows features in Progtams. Google smb windows 10 hot switch on and you will find plenty guides.
Both devices needs to be connected to the same wifi network.

SMB is definitely on.
Both devices are on the same wifi.
My pc does not have wifi but uses the router to connect.
I don't believe this is a problem with my wifi or pc or else Windows remote on my tablet wouldn't connect and work with my pc.
As it would appear no one has a clue where this code error comes from nor how to rectify it I have to assume Oreo is not fit for purpose.

Pocophone F1 Hotspot not working on my Windows 8.1 Laptop

Hi everyone, as the title suggests, I have problems with the hotspot of my rooted Pocophone F1, MIUI Global 11.
It works great with other android devices, but I can't share the connection with my Lenovo Laptop with Windows 8.1.
USB tethering instead works without any problem.
When I try to connect to the Hotspot via WiFi, it returns the message "Limited", "No Internet Access".
Network Diagnostics throws up the following error message: "Windows can't communicate with the device or resource (Primary DNS Server)."
I have a full strength signal and I appear to be connected but there is "no internet access".
I am able to connect the laptop on the wireless of my home router with no problem.
I tried to:
1) Change the APN type to: "default, mms, dun, supl" (I also tried to insert "DUN" in capital letters)
2) Change the private DNS mode from "automatic" to "dns.google"
3) Reset all the network settings
But nothing changes, the problem remains.
Can you help me with my problem? Thanks in advance.
Any chance of getting help?
More likely a windows issue. Get help from google.
