I'm having problems with my laptop - it doesn't want to connect to my wifi modem (dont ask me why it suddenly started doing this). But my S2 can. Is it possible to connect my laptop to the phone's internet?
Did u change anything (phone/laptop)?
Infos about SGS2 (version/rom/kernel)?

No nothing changed. Something happened to the provider and I didn't have internet for a few hours. After that the phone could connect and the laptop couldn't.
S2 4.0.4 no root.
So u checked the mobile hotspot option in settings? All like before?
Is it visible on ur laptop and u can't connect or u even can't see it?

I think you didn't understand my question I cant connect my laptop to my wifi modem, but my s2 can connect to it. What I'm asking if it's possible to connect my laptop to s2, while the s2 is connected to the wifi modem?

Hello Gurus.
I have this strange issue with connecting my Laptop to the Portable Hotspot on my Galaxy S2.
I have the security as WPA2/PSK. Now when I keep it secured, I am unable to connect any devices.
While when I keep it as OPEN, it connects.
Any one can shed some light on this ?
Thanks

I have the same issue with my phone
i had this problem too
it's some kind of problem with the wifi driver of your laptop try to update ur drivers or unistall/reinstall them and try again
I think that kinda makes sense. A lot of my drivers have been acting funny since I installed Windows 8 haha. Thanks tho, I'll give it a try.

It's not about your windows drivers, it's a common bug in all Jellybean ROMs
My guess would be that it is related to the kernels, like the situation with hwcomposer...
in my Second Rom (PilotxROM AOKP-M6 ICS 4.0.4), is`t working Great.
same kernel, so ....
When I set up my hot spot for a PS3 it works fine, connects without problems.
When I connect on my computer it will take a while to connect and then it will fail, asking me to troubleshoot additional problems.
Does anybody know how I can fix this? it's getting annoying, sometimes turning it off and on until it connects works but it takes a while and I'd prefer to fix the problem
Thanks guys

Based on the information you have provided, there is only one answer possible:
delete the DOS 6.22 partition on your x386 PC, buy new laptop with something more modern, like Ubuntu, Windows or MacOS and try again.
I clearly see that the root reason of your problem is lack of wifi card drivers for DOS...
And all of the XDA hired fortune tellers are agreeing with me.

Hello guys! So I have Acer Aspire V3 laptop, USB cable and DSL modem (no WiFi), but I need internet connection in my SGS 2 (mobile internet doesn't work right now because of the lack of cash and the limit of it sucks a lot :| ), so would it be possible to get that connection in any ways?

On s2 you can only share internet from the phone to the device as PC or laptop but it cannot be reversed :/
Then maybe someone knows where to get free and working Connectify? Because with that program you can freely share WiFi through PC or Laptop to any other device
Do a Google/XDA search for 'reverse tethering'.

Just tried this and it doesn't worked for me :| I didn't got any errors but didn't got internet too :q I will try to look for solution with this tutorial, thanks
It's absolutely possible, plenty of people here have done it. But it's not a simple thing to do. You'll find out how/get it working if you're motivated enough.
Is this possible on the z2??
Want to connect my z2 to my guest network at work but wifi is not an option
Can anyone confirm this works?
No but USB teathering works which is the next closest thing.
What does that consist of? I'm a nooB
Just want to hook ethernet into my phone to save on dat data!

I think usb reverse tethering is also possible but in this case you need a computer and I think it is not very simple to use.
Using a computer as a WiFi hub is probably an option too but I don't think all the hardware/software support that.

Hardware support for that isnt common but for example i can connect my phone to a wifi net and then share that wifi connection via usb teathering which is the closest i got to this

That's a good idea, but will the software accept an incoming internet connection through the usb port?
you can use applications to turn your laptop in a wireless hotspot.
1) you hook your pc to an ethernet cable
2) run and start the application
and voila...you have wifi for your mobile
you may use Virtual Router
Hello there devs!
I'm having a Wi-Fi issue with my 3 year old GT-I9300.It seems that my phone ain't connecting to Wi-Fi.But my other devices like my Lumia and the HP Slate tablet connects to my Wi-Fi hotspot that's hosted in my PC
(I don't have a Wireless modem).I've did a factory reset,installed a new ROM,and pretty much everything else :/
It would be nice if you guys helped me...
Does it connect to other wifis around? Cafe or somewhere outside?
