connect hotspot clients to local network - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to creat a hotspot that connects to a local network instead of the cell data? I connect several devices to tab 3 tablets in vehicles i would like to connect them to my network when they are at my facility. I would like to keep them in groups and have this work automaticly, maybe by using tasker to turn off data and switich to local network by location or time ect. (make hotspot a client on my local network)

App data visability

I wanted to know if the data that my apps are using on a wifi network are saved anywhere. The reason I ask is I have been using an open wifi network to connect to recently and wanted to know if the data that I'am using is being saved anywhere on the network, or the router. And what I mean by data is, login details to hotmail, banking, conversations over ebuddy, kik etc.
Also what about secure networks, where I would need a wifi login, can the data be accessed by admins if they wanted to access it at a later date, or is it only accessable by sniffing packets as they are being transmitted?

[Q] Auto forward on connection to wifi?

Has anyone found an app that will automatically forward calls based on location or preferably connection to wifi?
I'd like to setup my phone to automatically forward calls to my home phone when my device connects to my wifi router. The cellular signal in my house is really spotty.

WI-FI connection

Anyone knows the settings for using WI-FI for downloads at home instead of the cell network?
you simply turn on Wifi, and give it your network password so it can connect, and as long as it is connected to WiFi it should not use the cellular network other than to notify you of texts or incoming calls

Remote Connection/ Call forwarding method

to get smart relay activated properly you must first turn on the mobile data connection on your phone then the mobile data connection on your watch. if the gear s has auto mobile data defaulted, in 60 seconds you will not have to activate it manually.
This method is to get the calls forwarded. Again, to establish the remote connection both phone and watch mobile data connections must be established independently. If youre connected to wifi the remote connection will not work.
Once call forwarding or remote connection has been established it is not necessary to keep the mobile data connections on either the phone or watch. The remote setup has been worked out through your cellular provider and there isn't a need to keep data on if you don't need them.
This must be done every time to get it working. I'm using both a tmobile bought gear S and note 4. It all works brilliantly.

Using wifi calling over android hotspot

I have no reception at work, so I have another phone (with a different company's sim that does get reception,) set up to be a hotspot for my main phone.
I want to use wifi calling so I can make and receive calls with my own number, but it says "not registered on network" when I try. Wifi calling DOES work on my regular home router so I know that it's the hotspot's fault.
I spoke to my carrier and they said I should make sure certain ports are open through the router - the hotspot phone is rooted if that helps.
