Has anyone been able to connect to a vpn, start wifi tethering, then access the internet with other connected devices?
I connect to a vpn fine on my galaxy s3 mini, start a wifi tether, connect my laptop to the wifi network, but the laptop never connects to the Internet.
A whole lot of people have this problem, and have not been able to find a work around.
I've tried the terminal thingy where you do iptables rputing and stuff, doesn't work, or maybe it was too complicated for me to carry out properly.
Anyone with a solution?
I have a perfectly rooted galaxy s3 mini amd im sure many other devices have this vpn wifi problem.

I have been trying to connect my SGS2 internet to the PC using wirless hotspot, but all the time it shows limited accesses on my PC and no way i can connect to internet? If anyone know the solution, Please let me know?
I am on stock ROM rooted with CF root!
I have a similar problem with limited access. Usually I manually switch (I have a wifi on/off switch) my laptops wifi off and on again and it usually fixes the problem.
The wifi hotspot does give me problems when trying to connect to all versions of Windows and Linux. Am hoping to find a solution by searching through these forums.
im not sure what to do. i have an android 2.2 phone with 3g data service. it has tethered successfully to an xp pc. but i cant get it to work with a win7 starter edition netbook.
i connect the phone via usb to the netbook. the netbook connects to the phone and asks to choose home, work or public. i choose home, but it doesnt allow internet access. i tried portable wireless hotspot option too but still the same... netbook connects but no internet access. btw the netbook connects fine with internet access on all other wifi networks. help
Have you tried any other wireless tether apps? e.g.: https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether.
thanks. that app worked.
cant seem to get barnical or that wireless tethering app to work on my galaxy nexus (verizon) 4.0.2 (its rooted and unlocked)
im a android newb so not sure if i did something wrong or its the app not compatible yet?
i had to sideload it (verizon blocks it.....)
hi fellows
i just installed a 4g device in my laptop for internet access. It working fine. Next i made the laptop a hotspot via adhoc connection and after that though internet is fine but i am unable to connect my samsung sii via wifi with it. Even though a friends iphone connected to my lappys hotspot but my phone doesn't and neither does it show that a hotspot/ wifi connections exists.
help
Ad Hoc was designed only for local connections, not Internet.
Use Connectify to make hotspot.

You need to setup a virtual router or if your laptop has a router you can share net via that, originally custom roms does not support ad hoc, but certain roms are modified to enable it.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.
Router has wlan infrastructure mode, not adhoc. It doesn't matter if the ROM supports it or not.
Hey guys,
I am currently really desperately looking for a way to get Internet from my DSL-enabled Notebook to my Galaxy S2 and my Asus TF700T Tablet. I am in Finnland on a hotel so I don't have 3g here.
So the facts:
My Laptop has a Wifi Bigfoot Wirless n 1103 network card without Bluetooth.
First I tried to do is setting up a Virtual Wireless Hotspot which kind of worked, but only for a few moments. Got a connection on both devices but then the Hotspot somehow disappeared. Don't know why. Maybe it is due to the Network Card, which is built for good gaming performance over Wifi.
Anyone an idea whats wrong with my Virtual Wifi Hotspot?
Next thing I tried is to set up an Ad Hoc- Wifinetwork over the PC which kind of worked, but both Android devices can't see ad hoc networks and there seemed to be no working wpa_supplicant for jellybean. Both Android devices are on PAranoidAndroid 2.99 by the way and the Laptop is on Win 7.
Does anyone know a way to enable this to see Ad Hoc Wifi networks?
So next thing I tried is Tethering over USB with Android Reverse Tethering which worked for the Tablet but not for the Galaxy S2 for a reason I dont know.
So does anyone know, why it does not work on the S2?
Next I tried setting up a Wifi Hotspot on the Tablet with the app Wifi Tether which kind of worked, but unfortunately this is an ad hoc network which again my Galaxy S2 can't see.
Does anyone know an app that creates an infrasturctured Wifi Hotspot instead of ad hoc?
Then I tried setting up Bluetooth Tethering from Tablet to GS2 which I didn't got to work (Connection established but don't know how to get the Internet working then.
Anyone got an idea about this?
Anything else I could try?
I really didn't believe that this is so hard to do
Hi, I happen to be usually in a place where the network is mac filtered, so I can only connect with my mobile and not with my tablet.
I can't tether wifi to wifi, as it's not possible with the mobile.
The tablet (Pipo S3) doesn't has bluetooth. I haven't been able to change it's mac address, but it could solve the problem if I could find the way.
So, as bluetooth is not an option, the only thing remaining is doing it via usb. I've googled and found a lot of tether apps, but from android to computers, no from android to android via usb.
Does someone know how to do it? Thanks.
