Has anyone done this or is it even possible? I've tried using the Wifi tether app, Foxfi and Open Garden but no luck at all. I have a Trendnet gaming adapter N wireless. The wifi device does not connect to my phone no matter what I try to do, it shows on the PC setup showing my phone but no luck. Only Open Garden was able to detect it but no data was pass to the adapter. Im rooted running the Adreneline CM9 rom. I have no trouble connecting other devices to my phone as a Wifi Hotspot. Reasons for the adapter, have some devices that have slow wifi cards (PS3 is my main reason) so this should speed things up gradually.
Any help would be appreciate it. Had no luck in Googling unless I did something wrong.

Did all that and no go. The WiFi tether app is not showing the adapter at all. Dont understand why not.
fHas anyone done this before? Every other wifi device is able to connect with no problems but the wifi adapters don't seem to connect to it. Tried two different one's and no luck.
Are you sure you are using infrastructure mode?
Edit: nevermind. It was already asked.

I use a Linksys Wireless-B adapter regularly. I have it plugged into my WAN port on my house router, let's me run all the devices in the house over one connection. I have plugged it directly into the Xbox 360 without issue also.
Matter of fact I'm posting this from my PC over it now.
Wireless-b?
Um.... what about G?

Trying to help a buddy on his thunderbolt apply this zip file leak to fix the hotspot drop problem
It downloaded as 2.11.605.19.zip
It's supposed to be the fix for the hotspot
But I don't use htc at the moment
I tried to rename it as update.zip and apply as update in recovery but no luck
What's the process I'd anyOne knows about thIs new leak fix
I'm having the same problem with my thunderbolt I put the eternity rom beats edition on and i even downloaded a wifi tether app. it connects but doesn't send or receive packets
I'm just now getting around to looking at tethering my TBolt. Just wondering, does this app/update require Verizon tethering subscription?
If you download and use the wireless tether app it has to be setup properly to work. Under device profile select thunderbolt. Scroll down and select router fix.

Posting just in case someone else searching for a solution runs across this thread:
Seems like solutions for getting wifi tethering to work is all over the place. For me, wifi tethering for root seemed to start, and other devices could see it, but the devices could never connect to the Internet. In my case, switching to open garden solved the issue.
I haven't had any issues with any form of tethering with this phone. I was even able to share my internet from the phone, to a net book, and then to my ps3 via a wifi router. I know a lot of others have been having problems with it though and Im wonder if its possibly a hardware difference between the phones.

Sometimes they use parts manufactured by different people. If someone can make a part cheaper then chances are they'll use it. Especially, when a device has been out for a while or out of production.This happened when I had an Eris. They changed the touchscreen manufacturer and some people started to find in some roms the touchscreen wouldnt work.

Are you using a Belkin router by chance?

You have to go to the advanced settings in wifi on your player and set it manually. That will keep you from losing connection

I have Uverse and my wifi could not be better. It could be the wifi modem or the wifi drivers/files are faulty or just do not agree with each other. I remember when I would plug my player into my computer via usb, the wifi connectivity would screw up on my desktop if I did not turn wifi off on my player for some reason. The problem will probsnly be easy to fix, if it is the player tou can send it in to samsumg and they should fix the wifi problem, if it is your wifi I csnnot help you there.

As obscureworld mentioned, this was an issue with mainly Belkin routers that was discovered back during the release of the galaxy players. There where a variety of fixes that had various success for different people, including; changing band type in router settings, changing router lease time, setting a static ip, etc. I would just mess around a little with your router settings to see if that solves it. You could always try a new router if that doesn't help, since they're pretty cheap nowadays.

Have you tried updating the radio version or do you have poor signal? I'm on cricket and if I have a not so great signal my data basically comes to a crawl. You also could try *22804 and update the prl ota, you might have the wrong version.

How do i update the Radio???I think my radio version is 1.09.Which came with the ICS OTA update from sprint...At first when i first flashed myphone it wouldnt let me dial *228.I have tried about 9 different PRL's and now finally i can dial *228.But i live exactly 1 Block from the nearest Cricket Wireless tower.Most of the time i have Full Bars at home and its still slow..But i flashed my phone myself and i thought i did something wrong so i paid a flashing service to do it.But then after they did it and it was still slow i reflashed it again.What is your Download speeds?
Yeah thats the exact proxy i am using..What rom are you on?Because i also thought maybe if i flashed a custom rom it wouldnt cause me any more trouble.Because i really like this phone and i want to keep it but im so ready to trash it because of the Data speeds...I talk on my phone maybe 10mins out of a whole day and the rest of the time i use it for internet..

The wire trick is very tricky to get to work, I was in hboot 1.58 when I first bought this phone and I had to have HTC sync and the adb drivers installed in order for that program to find my phone, and if you have any trouble with the timing of the wire trick look it up on you tube, I had to do that lol

Same story, same problem. Using dirty unicorns. Very slow data speed. I had to flash an HTC one v from virgin to cricket and get great data speed. Maybe because the sprint firmware is different and routes data a different way? I am still searching.

Could just be the 3g connection is to slow and it times out. Go get a BigMac and use their wifi
Would it work better if I turned on my hotspot and used my computer or not so much

Your hotspot will still only give you 3g, run down to McDonalds or starbucks and use the wifi there
I've noticed similar issues when trying to download large files (like ROM's) over WiFi at home. Not usually an issue but it happens every so often. Never an issue using my laptop, though.

Does anyone else get variable download speeds from the play store? Most of the time I get 3-4 mb/s but sometimes it drops to only 2-300 kb/s...it happens on both my 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz networks (same router). Just curious if that's typical behavior for the play store or if it's my wifi being fickle on aosp.
Sorry to hijack the thread, been wondering for a while but since it's not a huge deal I didn't want to start a new one.

Yep foxfi is officially dead for wifi tether, not the first time this has happened and I'm sure the foxfi devs are working on it.
Don't know if they will work on it. My wife's htc m8 FoxiFi worked fine till it went to lollipop and that was months ago and till this day it doesn't work. I have a work around but ps4 nat goes to 3. Now kinda wish I got the nexus 6 lol

Man I'm shocked I thought for sure this was the end of FoxiFi. Well at least I have a backup plan if happens again
Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
I find restarting the phone then trying again usually gets it to work. I am not sure the reason but after checking "Activate WiFi Hotspot" in FoxFi the prompt to enable hotspot in settings states you have 30 seconds to do which leads me to believe any subsequent attempt to enable hotspot will fail until the phone is restarted. Hope it work for you also!
