I have this recurring issue with all Jellybean roms I have tried ( Stock Poland, Android Hd, Omega, Foxhound) where i lose internet connection over wifi every 3-5 mins and only way to recover it is to toggle wifi on and off. The funny thing is this happens only when i use my gf's macbook pro as a wifi hotspot (internet sharing over mac wifi).
There are no problems with ICS roms. I have tried stock, perseus, siyah and speedmod kernels to no avail.
Can somebody help me?
I do not want to get a wifi router as my gf needs the wired lan connection for her work

Many a true word spoken in jest!
Have you tried rebooting your router?? What internet speed are you supposed to be getting?? Also try it with your windows laptop and see if you get the same result

Can't offer much help except to say it works great on my 5.0 including today.
Are you using a firewall perhaps?

Hey guys, I was have been trying to figure out how to tether my internet via WiFi hotspot on my phone. When I was running the official ICS from Samsung I used foxfi and it worked with no problems. Well now I'm running the Super Nexus ROM and foxfi won't work. Any solutions / alternatives?
Thanks, Dev

you should be able to turn it on. in phone settings in wireless and network select others then select portable wifi hotspot. it is there you have to find it.
I see what you're talking about. Will that go against my ATT contract?

Yes and no. Some people have had success tethering without ATT finding out and charging extra for tethering.
So far I've been ok.. on both iphone and android so I was just making sure doing it this way won't raise a red flag.

As soon as I turn it on it switches back off. Are you completely stock. No mods at all?

I have pre-rooted and deodexed rom found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935570) installed on my UK (bought from t-mobile) S3 LTE and tethering works a treat.
Ive got quite abit of different mods on mine practically like a new rom and tether also works great obviosly if we have that option then it should work and if it doesnt its either a software bug , network, or faulty phon. Or even the other device thats connecting to it.

Contact your service provider | by calling 150, and perhaps option 4 for technical support, as EE may have this option disabled for you by default, I have yet to check if mine works because i just ordered this as an upgrade (Everythings Unlimited!) for only £41 a month LOL
i am tethering right now and i am shocked as it is very fast even tho i am near the ocean and bushland./Lake but i am on 3G , as there is no 4g coverage out here yet. You would spin out if you knew where i was . Its 12am I am in front of a MASSIVE lake in a tent near the bush and just to see if i could, i hooked up my mini netbook up to my i9305 and all i can say is AWESOME i have now been on a stable connection for 1 hr. who needs a hardwire connection when you have a S3
Hehe i better get off now and get back to the nature haha. cya

There is a way around it i saw in i9300 a dev made a work around. I just cant remeber what thread it was inn or wat dev it was.i think it was his own work around he didnt advertise it because it was an offtopic thread was about something else and it lead into tethering . Do a search if ios has something we must aswel lol

I can use Bluetooth tethering but not WiFi. All that happens is I switch it on and then it says switching off and shutdown it off

Trying to figure out why my wife's note 2 running JB v16 has one bar of WIFI sitting right next to my vzw S3 with full bars of WIFI signal.
This has been an issue on every note 2 rom I have flashed.
Does anyone have any possible Idea of what the heck is going on?
Thanks in advance.

Check your broadband. This will tell you what your radio's are set to. If you have updated roms, but never updated radios, that may be your problem.

I find my wifi signal is usually really weak compared to other devices too but I really figure it may just be a problem with a few of the N2s.

You could be right. Maybe I'll try and find another note 2 and test it I'm my house

Still no answers for this. Been reading all over other forums and it appears this is a pretty significant issue as well outside the root community.
Sounds like it may be a defect in some phones

I have no idea what the problem is, but the situation is exactly opposite in my house. S3 struggles to connect and stay connected, while Note almost always has full bars on wifi.

Hey guys I'm trying to connect to a network at my job that uses this kind of network I'm able to connect to the network but the internet doesn't work. Is this a jellybean issue ? Or network? Doing Google searches shows there's a lot of problems for Android users.
Edit: I'm on bad seed rom sense 5

You could try the CM10.1 ROM. I connect to a PEAP (no phase 2 authentication) at work.
