Using my S3 as a wifi repeater, possible? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I read on here that through a program called fqrouter2 it was possible to use my phone as a wifi repeater, long story short I just moved into a new place with an open unsecured wifi connection, I am able to connect to that network with my phone but neither my ipad, laptops with windows XP or 7 or Nexus 7 can connect. Of all the devices I've tried to connect to it, only my S3 worked, it was also the first device I tried, not sure if that makes a difference... Anyways so now I want to "tether" my laptop to my S3 so I can use this internet connection, I have a data plan but not with unlimited data obviously, I've been scouring the internet in search of a solution and I came across this app listed in the title but could not find a tutorial on how to set up my phone as a wifi hotspot without turning on my mobile data...
If anyone has a clue on how to do this it would be super helpful!
Thank you!
Will

Anyone? Really need help here:/

I was in the same boat man and I tried but to do so the device would need to have two WiFi bands, one to pick up the connection and the other to rebroadcast it. That's why if you've ever tried to bridge a connection on a PC you can send the WiFi to LAN or vice versa but not WiFi to WiFi.

Thanks for responding, I found a temporary solution by using USB tether, but the obvious limitation is in the fact that I can only connect one laptop at a time and none of my tablets will be able to connect sadly.
PS: To the admins the captcha thing on this site is terrible, I have poor eye sight and using the hearing option is even worse, just terrible.Why the heck do I have to enter a captcha each time I post???

One don't bump two members have no catchpa .
Please be aware this is I9300 forum .

I see we welcome yet another user who wants to ignore all the rules and just insult users who give them information .
Answered rules instead of reporting post for deletion .
Answered question re captcha .
Gave warning re I9300 as many SGS3 owners from the north american continent who do not have I9300 post here in ignorance . Sadly advice from this forum may brick a non I9300 SGS3 model .

1: Who did I insult? I thanked a member who responded this morning.
2. You did not answer my question on captcha since I still have to enter it and as far as I know I am a member
3: I am not based in the US, my S3 is indeed the GT i9300 and my opening post was regarding using the i9300 as a wifi repeater.
I'm not trying to break any rules, I post on many other forums no problem, not sure why I'm having problems with this one.

New users have to enter a captcha so it stops spam and bots from posting rubbish and advertising etc.
Once you reach a certain post count it will disappear but i can't remember what it is. Around 5-10 I should think as that's the number i set it in my forums.
Also you can use the phone to usb tether option then use your computers wifi card to broadcast a wifi network for your other wireless devices to connect to.

Hey thanks for this mate Can you give me more info on how to do it? Right now I am doing USB tethering, so my laptop is connected to the internet via my Galaxy which I am using as a modem with its wifi receiver, but I didn't think about the fact that I could do as you said and turn my laptop into a wifi network!
Many thanks in advance

I have used this app to share via a lan connection so assume it can work with usb tether aswell but give it a try.

Best Custom ROM for (att) HTC Fuse for GPS & WiFi

I want to set up my new (att) HTC Fuse to run satellite based GPS with internal maps and WiFi Internet connections. I do not want to pay for the att GPS or data plans. I want to use the internet through WiFi at home or at hotspots without using att by mistake and receiving data charges accordingly. In addition, what is the best GPS software: Tom Tom, Garmin or some other? It is fine with me to load all the maps on the SD card and run independent of Google Maps. A large 'Points of Interest' database is also desirable.
First of all, your questions have been answered numerous times and this is not the thread for these questions. In fact your subject does not match with the contents. However, below are my suggestions:
It's better to call ATT customer service to cancel your data plan so that you dont accidentally use the data plan. There are also cabs that
can be used to disable the data plan.
TomTom or Garmin . it's upto you. However, beware of the fact that there is very noticable lag in fuze-gps.
I myself do not use data plan and have been using FuzeGPS as far as I can.
Regarding the custom ROM - you can use any of the custom ROM as each has been catered to serve different taste.
I am in the exact same situation as you... the first thing I have to say to you is READ... Read & Do NOT post (and especially do not start a new thread for something like this)!
That being said, the NRG ROM Series by NRGZ28 (MAKE SURE YOU HARDSPL!) is what I personally use on my fuze, and Tom Tom 7 would be my recommended Nav software. That being said, with both of us being in the US, it might be a bit hard to get your hands on. Even more so with the proper maps. If you need help getting your hands on Tom Tom, let me know.... ALSO-- FIND, Download, & Install Modaco's NoData.... the stock ATT Rom WILL CONNECT to the internet even if you don't want it to. ATT's explanation is that "it is a primary data, secondary voice device." Don't end up like me with $50 in data charges at the end of the month just because of the stock ROM. You can also remove the password under connections and manually key it in when you are sending / recieving a MMS (the password is cingular).
What does the poll have to do with your questions?
For the data usage, I agree about downloading the NoData cab, it works great.
For the ROM, there's lots out there and all of them will work. Its best to look at what's included and figure out what has the stuff you'll use.
WiFi works fine in all of the ROMs.
GPS is where it could get a little tricky. Since you don't want to use data, then you'll have to disable aGPS (since March 1st, most ROMs have it enabled I think because of the AT&T fix). This will cause your cold fix time to take longer.
As far as GPS software, I like Garmin the best. Its just like a Nuvi unit and the maps are the most up-to-date for my area, especially compared to TomTom.

Thanks for your quick reply.
Obviously I am new to this forum (I registered last month), but I have spent MANY hours searching and reading many threads on this very interesting site. My questions have not yet been answered well enough to make a decision. I have read good things and bad things about almost every issue. Some guys say the stock ROM is horrible, some say it is great and every thing works wonderful after simply eliminating the att bloatware. Some say stay away from cooked ROMs and some say it is the only way to go. Obviously your research has answered these simple questions for you which others also may find helpful. If you can, please post some of the thread links that answer these questions in a more definitive fashion than my research has found. By the time I read four or five pages of most of the threads I found in my search there were so many contradictions and varied results that it became a little confusing, hence I was hoping for some simple answers that I hoped would be of interest to me and others with similar questions. I assumed there was more than Garmin and Tom Tom out there, but if not, I agree they are both probably good choices.
Thanks again for your comment – David.

Dude,
If you have an ATT Fuze, Why are you polling about the iphone, win-mo, and palm OS's? I'd Semi-understand the poll if you were undecided about which phone to go buy but you just picked up an ATT Fuze. The Fuze runs on WinMo and you're on a Forum that mostly works with phones that run Windows Mobile yet you're going to poll and ask about which smartphone OS is better?
If this poll has anything to do with a purchase of a phone, go to something like CNET.com or another electronic review site to find your answers.
I'm not trying to flame you but i'm struggling to understand how your poll and HOW that has anything to do with your question that you're posting?
Anyways, its a preference. I know it gets confusing to read all the pages about all the ROM's that are posted but i'm going to tell you, its all about what YOU want and it has nothing to do with anyone elses opinions. If i were you, i'd go flash every ROM and see which one works out for me. There are compromises but you really need to go through it yourself and see which one works out best for you. There is NO PERFECT ROM for this phone as the phone itself isn't perfect. As for your navigation needs, go find "iGo" for windows mobile. I'm not sure why people get business oriented phones if they don't want to spend money on a data package because the data capabilities and business oriented software is what makes these phones different than a regular cell phone. I still don't see a point in the poll but good luck.

[Q] Wireless Tether/Sharing Killed By Tmobile!

Hey Guys a problem just occured. I was surfing via wireless tether on my awesome rooted vibrant...... when all of the sudden i opened or changed a page at 12:00am 11/15/2010 when a lovely new page from Tmobile Popped up "GET A TETHERING/ Wifi Sharing plan for only $14.99 a month" and was obv garnished in pink and blue as tmobile is.
10 minutes previous to 12:00 am. I recieved a "free mobile message: Tethering & Wi-fi sharing access will be blocked unless you add a Phone tethering & wi-fi Sharing plan available at my.tmobile.com"
12:00am "free tmobile message: Tethering & Wi-fi sharing has been blocked" Please go spend all your goddamned money on more of our services because you dont pay us enough yet for your not quite... but paying for -- 4g service....
I am rooted with clockwork 2.5.1.2.. . . WTF is my question to tmobile... and Gents what can we do about this situation?
How do they know you are tethering? Since they can't see what your doing on your phone...

Ya know... Great question and i seriously wish i knew. I believe that wireless tethering for the vibrant was originally loaded on all the "vibrants" and tmo took them off because they did not like the idea of their well invested bandwidth going into a NON-tmobile product. So a remnant of that SW might have a database. I'm just throwing out conjecture. But i need that back w/o paying out the ass.

If they force all internet traffic to go through a proxy, they can easily check that.

And you'd be quite wrong. The development section is for discussion of development on the device, not questions that might eventually lead to development.
So, unless you're starting this thread with the intent of writing an app that gets around T-Mobile's tethering block, it's the wrong section.
What rom & tethering app were you using? Mobile ap still worked when I was tethering at 2 am pst today. (using unofficial stock jk2)

First of all, specifying a time (12am) does no good unless you give us a time zone.
Secondly, I dont understand what you are complaining about. You are not paying for the tethering, correct? So why are you expecting to tether? If you don't like this, why not try another carrier... Please let us know when you find a carrier that offers free tethering.
Third, it is trivial for tmobile to detect tethering. If you don't know why, that is your problem - not theirs.

And also, the OP is not asking if Tethering is working for us! What hes asking is if theres any other way to Tether, or bypass the transfer limit!
At OP: Im not sure how exactly they keep track of tethering, but i do know that they have incorporated a transfer limit that will allow us to tether for free for only so long. I understand your frustration as I came from the MotoCliq and we were able to unlimited tether for free using the WiFi Tethering app or Barnacle....i do believe those do not work one our phone, so there really is much you can do as of right now

FWIW, both Barnacle and Android Wi-Fi tether do indeed work (at least on Eclair, not sure about Froyo).
I'd be curious to know how exactly T-mo is detecting this as well. Sniffing traffic and looking for http user agents? Seems like a lot of work to go through just to catch the small percentage of users who tether without their plan, especially seeing as how everybody is capped anyway.
Of course, if T-mo is actually sniffing your traffic and inspecting packets, Barnacle and Wi-Fi tether wouldn't help you hide what you're doing anyway. One option would be to use a tunnel or a VPN to obfuscate what you're doing whenever you're tethering.
I'm contractless on T-Mo now, and if I lose the ability to tether I'm definitely going to be frustrated, maybe to the point where I'll jump ship. That's not worth $15/mo when I'm already capped at 5GB!
I just checked via wireless tethering on a rooted bionix fusion 1.2 build and it worked just fine for me at 730am MST. Have you tried any proxy pages? So far it seems to be just your phoen OP that isn't tethering.

samipower,
I realize there is a thread in G1 with similar information and there are other threads across XDA about WiFI cracking. However, in the forums I moderate, my interpretation of XDA's rule against doing anything illegal is this:
Intercepting network data not intended for you and accessing computer networks you are not authorized to are both felonies in the USA and perhaps against the law elsewhere. Packet sniffing and cracking WEP encryption have no real purpose other than educational and criminal. So, unless you want to delve personally into the educational portion of this rather than requesting a developer to implement it, I don't see the purpose of this thread. Perhaps a PM to a kernel dev is the best way to go about this, but discussion of network encryption cracking won't occur in the public forums that I moderate.
Thanks

Hi
I have my phone wifi connected, and the signal bar is excellent. But i cannot access any internet

Data problems after root and unlock

Ok i rooted my phone and unlocked it as well. I rooted only for the purpose of only getting a .08 to .3 KBps data speed in an area the is supposed to have been overhauled. I have had the damn phone replaced three times with no results. I have replaced the modem to the best one which still only gives me at best 1.66MBps. Well now when I use the hotspot.......only computer can connect!!!!! NONE OF MY OTHER 12 COMPUTERS CAN CONNECT AT ALL.....AND WHEN IT DOES IT DOES NOT GET AN IP ADDRESS AND WHEN I TRY TO TURN OFF THE HOTSPOT AND BACK ON I GET AN ERROR!!!!! I go into airplane mode and and then turn it off and I am able to connect but only this one damn computer!!!!! how in the hell can I fix this!!!!! PS. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO SEARCH FOR THIS PROBLEM....BECAUSE I HAVE ALREADY DONE THIS AND I HAVE COME UP WITH NOTHING BUT BULL****!!!! I WANT HONEST ANSWERS TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!!

I'd hardly call what you posted detailed.
If you have CWM then you were already rooted. What method did you use to install CWM? What "best" modem did you install? What ROM are you using? What method did you use to unlock? Where did you look? What searches have you done? I can go on an on with the questions......
I think it best to speak in a softer/nicer tone especially when asking for help. There are a lot of people here that are more than willing to help those that have a genuine interest in learning.

And every post I see has pages of posts saying you did not say much or search these forums before you post!!!!!! I DID SEARCH!!!!!! AND I WANTED TO STATE RIGHT OFF.......THAT YOU SHOULD SEARCH!!!!!!! I DID THAT!!!!! I do not know what more you want me to explain!!!!
1. Rooted my phone using ODIN with the ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3
2. Installed Superuser-3.0.7
3. Unlocked my phone with Galaxy S Unlock", the author is "Helroz"
4. After this I get the triangle and Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 on the splash screen.
5. Tried every modem and the best one seems to UCLC2 Modem.
6. After I did all this one one computer can hookup to my hotspot.
7. When a second computer tries to hookup.....First computer losses connection and second one never connects to get an IP address.
8. When you turn off the Hotspot it give you a message "ERROR"
9. In order to get reconnected I have to turn on airplane modes and then off and then the first computer can connect again.
I am just sooooo upset with this ****!!!!! Been fighting AT&T for 5 months with no results. And even with all the modems I have tried I get no more speed then at most times of .3 to .7kbps!!! I can't even download all the original files to restore completely to stock because I am getting about an 80% packet loss!!!!! And the download always fails anywhere from 50 to 70% I am so frustrated with this I am about to take a sledge hammer to this phone and tell AT&T to stick their network where the sun don't shine!!!

I am just sooooo upset with this ****!!!!! Been fighting AT&T for 5 months with no results. And even with all the modems I have tried I get no more speed then at most times of .3 to .7kbps!!! I can't even download all the original files to restore completely to stock because I am getting about an 80% packet loss!!!!! And the download always fails anywhere from 50 to 70% I am so frustrated with this I am about to take a sledge hammer to this phone and tell AT&T to stick their network where the sun don't shine!!!

K, i'm going to bite my tongue for a bit and try to help you. But you really are sounding like a demanding vulgar little child. So please tone it down and sound grateful so some smarter people might be tempted to help you solve your issue.
What ROM are you using? What security protocol are you using? I'm going to assume you're using Windows 7 on all your machines.... What are you setting as your network location? Home? Work? Public?
Have you already tried the basics.... wiping cache, wiping davlik, fix permission? Have you done a factory reset?

Just to start out.......I am not a demanding vulgar little child..........STOP WITH THE BS........I Happen to be a CCDE (Cisco Certified Design Expert) I know what I am doing and have the basic knowledge of phones!!!! I did all the basic stuff. I am very tired I have been dealing AT&T for months, I have been on this forum for days!!!! And I work 16 to 18 hours a day!!!!! And all I want is to be able to connect more then one computer on my hotspot....THAT IS ALL!!!! I AM COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED DEALING WITH THIS PROBLEM!!!!! And I may have sounded vulgar starting this post.....but I want to lay the thread out properly by saying........I am not a noobie, I don't want post saying did you search......did you do the basics.....I already did that!!!!!
Now for the questions to your answer.....I have not changed the rom....it is the stock rom.
2. I turned off all security at this point to make sure that was not the problem.
3. All my computers are running xp as I would never put windows 7 on my machine.
And as for network location I have know idea what you mean by that.......as I have changed NOTHING except installed CWM and the unlock program. I also flashed the phone with all the modems to see what gave me the best speed which was the UCLC2.
4. I restored the efs folder and relocked the phone. Still have the same problem.
5. I just flashed the kernel back to stock and it is still doing the same problem!!
*poppin some extra buttery Orville Redenbacher*
In all seriousness, you gave more detail in the second post than the first. Even though you said you had already started "everything necessary"...

PS - you managed to anger one of the most helpful people on this forum: creepy. You are soon to anger brokkanik and he's in that same category. Im pretty sure you need to reevaluate your approach or you will receive no help whatsoever. I hope you get this problem resolved soon.

Can I have some? This looks like an entertaining show. I'm somewhat flabbergasted at the balderdash being spewed.
**looks up at the site name**
nope, not the AT&T HELP DESK, nor is it the XDA-HELPDESK....
where are you paying for OUR services that gives you the right to yell at everyone?
you are doing absolutely no good for your case here.

And? So you're good at taking tests. Does that garner you a certain level of respect? My 9yr old can set up a network. I could care less if you're exhausted in dealing with this issue. You're demanding answers. You're not asking for help. If you already claim to know the tone of this forum why all the high and mighty "oh look at me! I'm a CCDE. I know how to configure IP's better than anyone that didn't take the test to become a CCDE. Bow down, answer my questions or GTFO!"?
Now for the questions to your answer.....I have not changed the rom....it is the stock rom.

THANKS ALL YOU FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!! JUST WHAT I THOUGHT A BUNCH OF PEOPLE OF HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO BUT....BE THE PROBLEM!!!! I TOLD YOU ALL I AM NOT A NOOBIE.....AND NOT ONE OF YOU SAID, "HEY I HAD THAT PROBLEM AND THIS IS WHAT I DID TO FIX IT" THAT IS EXCEPT THE ONE PERSON WHO UNDERSTOOD WHAT A WAS ASKING!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. AS FOR ALL YOU OTHER PEOPLE WHO DID EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED YOU TO NOT DO......... *&^$% OFF!!! OH AND A CCDE DOES NOT CONFIGURE JUST IP ADDRESSES.....I DESIGN WHOLE COMPLETE VoIP NETWORKS!!! oh and close this thread moderator!!
Again thank for the person who pm'd me and was a part of the solution instead of the other ones who had nothing to say but flame!!
dude. get the fkn chip off your shoulder.
you came in here yelling at people, nay, DEMANDING people help you, screaming at everyone even in your first post...
christ, man, what did you expect to get met with? champagne and crumpets?
grow up and learn how to be RESPECTFUL when asking VOLUNTEERS for help....just stop yelling at everyone and you will go a hell of a lot further and people wont troll your posts....
I'm logging in to the site via chrome just so I can report this thread.
Dude, do you have PE problems? Is that the reason for your need to type in caps? To tell people you are a "hot shot"¿ I don't care that you set up voip networks. I care that you are an asshole who types in caps, demands things like a 5yr old and throws around certificate like it's something we should all bow down to. Get over yourself. You may know a ton about networks,I may know a ton about micro architecture (I don't), but that means NOTHING here. Ask and you shall receive. Demand and you shall be flamed.
Anyway, awaiting penalties for this post and grabbing another beer.
Clay

get it right.....i came in here asking for help.........and not hearing people say......like i see on hundreds of threads on here to do a search.......and people should not do this or that.........i explicitly said NOT TO DO THIS!!!!!! I ONLY WANTED SOLUTIONS. AND NOT ONE OF YOU DID THAT!!!! YOU IMMEDIATELY WENT ON YOUR **** ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SHOULD NOT DO....THIS IS NOT A HELP DESK.........THAT IS WHY PROBABLY NONE OF YOU WORK FOR A COMPANY LIKE CISCO!!! IF I WAS ON A CISCO FORUM AND SOMEBODY DID WHAT I DID......I OBVIOUSLY WOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THAT THIS PERSON IS FRUSTRATED EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER AVENUES AND NEED HELP.
I SURE AS HELL WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ON MY HIGH SENIOR MEMBERS HORSE AND YOU ARE RUDE, YOU ARE VULGAR!!! iI WOULD HAVE SAID, "HOW CAN I HELP YOU AND SINCE YOU SAID, "DON'T ASK ME IF A SEARCHED THE FORUMS.....OR DID THE BASIC STUFF." I WOULD HAVE IMMEDIATELY SAID TO THE TECHNICAL STUFF NOT WHAT ANY OF YOU PEOPLE DID YOU JUST WENT STR8 TO COMPLAINING, WHINING, *****ING AND NOT ONE SINGLE ONE OF YOU DOVE IN AND WENT STR8 TO THE PROBLEM. SO YOU TELL ME WHO IS ON THEIR HIGH EFING HORSES??????
THIS IS WHY THERE ARE THREADS WITH 20, 30, 500 PAGES OF REPLIES!!!!! BECAUSE YOU ARE WORRIED TO THINK YOU ARE MOSTLY ALL KINGS AND RULERS OF THE THRONE!!!! GET OF YOUR PEDESTAL!!!!
NONE OF THIS CRAP HAPPENS ON CISCO'S FORUMS BECAUSE WE ARE ABOUT THE SOLUTION AND NOT ABOUT GIVING A RESPONSE THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO ABOUT THE SOLUTION!!!
SO SAY WHAT YOU WANT.........BUT THIS THREAD PROVES THAT!!!!!! MOST OF YOU THINK YOU ARE BETTER THEN ANYONE ELSE.....YOU ARE NOT!!!
AGAIN THANKS FOR THE PERSON THAT HELPED ME AND EVERYBODY ELSE I WILL NOT DIGNIFY YOUR BS REPLIES WITH ANYMORE REPLIES.
AND AGAIN THANKS..........YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE......IF I NEED ANY OTHER HELP I WILL PM YOU BACK.
