I know it's an android bug. But does anyone know why? I'm no developer and Idk where to look. It's only WEP secured routers. It would be awesome if I could connect to wifi at work.

Hi, anyone tried to connect to laptop's ad-hoc hotspot? I can't connect to it but my iPhone can.
Most android phones can't do ad hoc. There are software mods by the dev community for some, but nothing working on this phone yet. Already posted a topic about it. We'll have to wait.

I just bought my S3 not too long ago and have noticed that I can't seem to tether to my MacBook Pro under OS X, but it seems to work fine under Windows. I was wondering if anyone else experienced this and if there was a fix? Loving the phone but it's really a deal breaker for me if this is a consistent issue. Thanks!

What do you mean by "tether" ? Are you trying to get network connection going through the S3 on your mac via USB tether? Or are you talking about file transfer?

I am wondering if there is a mod out there that will let me tether my phone to my computer through the USB. I know that the oG EvO Let me do that when i used most roms, is this still under development at the moment?
Can someone please help with WiFi tether. I have a EVO LTE rooted. I have the settings set as generic ics I have mms clapping and routing fix checked. I changed the ssid and the password. I get the computers to connect but with no internet I tryed using the WiFi fix to use the stock hotspot and I got it to work for about 10 min. I also tryed Firefox still no luck please help.

I use clockwork tether with a lot of my phones and never had any issues.

Do you have access control enabled for wifi tether?if so you need to go to access control and check the box to allow traffic through a certain device when its connected.

Firefox is a browser, not a tethering app. So I can see why "you had no luck."
(From foxfi.com): *Sprint has removed FoxFi from Play Store. Sprint users must install/upgrade FoxFi from http://foxfi.com/bin instead.
FoxFi works great on my LTEvo, and it works with or without root; for many, many users I might add.
So I can enable Wifi hotspot in slim bean, and I can see it in my network list, but it won't let me connect. I've been searching all morning to figure this out as I wait on the cable man to fix my modem. Any ideas?

My home network is WPA/wpa2 and my neighbors network is wep, I can connect to mine but not his, but everyone else can connect to his. I know I have the correct password, it just says connecting but I don't get signal, any tips? I'm s-off rooted running carbon

I've heard of this issue with WEP (or one of those wifi acronyms) not working. I can't remember if it's AOSP only or if there's a fix but I'd definitely ask in the AOSP circles if you don't get something useful here. If this helps in your searching, there's some guys with netgear stuff not working that posted and it turned out to be the encryption type and they made some changes and it started working or quit dropping.
Jayochs had the problem I believe

My Dna wouldn't work with my router when it was set to use wpa I changed it to wep and now it works fine. I guess it all depends on the router.
