I live in uni accomodation, and unfortunately WiFi routers will not work in the rooms.
Is there any way of using my rooted GSM Hero as a USB WiFi Adaptor from my PC?
Ie: share my PC's internet over WiFi using the Hero connected via USB so I can wirelessly connect with stuff like my DSi and PSP.
There's an official Nintendo WiFi USB dongle that does this job, so I'm hoping there's also a way for the Hero to do it. I've used the PDAnet app for my Hero for USB tethering that basically is the exact reverse of what I want (it receives WiFi on the hero, shares it to PC).
Anyone know how to do this?
Wireless tether do the trick?search forums for it
Unless it has been written with a great deal of flexibility in mind, I doubt it. While wifi tether will let the OP connect his handheld consoles to his Hero, I suspect they'll be hard coded to forward this traffic over the GSM interface, whereas what I think the OP is after is the ability to forward the traffic over usb to his PC which I assume has a cabled connection to his uni network.
What s/he needs is simultaneous wifi & usb tethering with the abilty to route between the two. I've not come across anyone doing this before, though it's clearly just a matter of having the right software for the job. Not a trivial exercise to write it, alas.
The best chance would probably be if the author of the wifi tether app is still active & would be interested in adding this functionality to their existing app.
I would say you would have to

Once of us has misread the OP. I took the OP's PC to have no wifi connection.
[Edit:] Hmm, I could be mistaken; I'm less certain now.

It's only just occurred to me to ask, why don't wifi routers work? Is it a matter of rules & regulations? Otherwise I'm somewhat confused.
If it is simply a matter that the only equipment you're allowed to connect directly to the network is a PC you register with the sys admins, I'd be inclined to stick a second network card in the PC (assuming your uni connection is via the primary ethernet port) & use this to connect to your (existing?) wifi router which you use purely as a wifi access point. That'd cost you less than a fiver, assuming you already have a wifi router or access point.
I would stick to the rules however. Unless you're sure you know what you're doing they might spot attempts to connect disallowed equipment from the resulting traffic.
you can use the hero as a wifi dongle?im using it now with internet sharing on and just connected to wifi?
The phone says its wireless N able but I can't seem to get it to see my wireless N network over 5GHz. It sees my wireless G network over 2.4GHz fine but not wireless N over 5GHz evidently.
Anyone gotten theirs to connect to N networks? If so what were your configs for channel, and all that if you mind me asking?
I haven't had any issue connecting to wireless n. I'm connected at home, girlfriends and work. My router is channel 11, gf is channel 6. I don't know about work.

If your on channel 11 then your only on 2.5GHz not 5GHz. do me a favor and while your connected on your Evo3D go into wireless settings and click on the network that your connected to and tell me the speed it shows. Willing to bet its only 65Mbps, which is because your on 2.5GHz and not 5GHz.

There is a difference between A/N and B/N.
B/N is 150Mbs + and has better penetration than A/N. You're asking the wrong question.
Yes, you can connect to a B/G/N network. No you cannot connect to a 5.0GHz anything network.

So this has a single antennae then correct just like the Evo4G did which is why it couldn't connect to 5.0GHz networks?
j/w b/c I can't get past 65Mbps on the connection while I thought the 3D had a better wireless card in it than the 4G. Its not my router as I get boost up to 130Mbps on my laptop connected to same SSID at times.
Just a bummer thought we were getting a true wireless N capable phone.
This makes me wonder even more why they took out N capability in the Evo4G update and never added N to the spec sheet.
A single antenna is not what makes it 2.4GHz vs 5GHz. The single antenna basically limits it to Wireless N, 150Mbps vs 300Mbps. The 5GHz is just the frequency that it travels over, and most mobile devices won't do 5Ghz, and will only have a single antenna.

So your able to connect over 2.4GHz freq and your evo3d shows its connected at 150Mbps??
I have a top of line netgear full dual band router here so I know its not that, esp seeing as my pc connects at 150Mbps over the 2.4GHz band. I'm checking this by just clicking on the SSID after connected on the Evo3D, or checking Status on my PC's connection.
Dont get why I'm always showing 65Mbps on the Evo3D. Would of thought that since they are publishing that they support Wireless N as opposed to the Evo4G who only had 1 antennae, that I would connect at higher speed than the Evo4G. did

There's nothing more misleading than the whole "link speed". I've never seen an actual 150Mbs off of my A/N "300Mbs" connection, and that's with the laptop sitting 4ft from the router. The phone can't utilize anywhere near that bandwidth, and I'm willing to bet that even if your internet is several MB/s, you won't actually find a website to give you more than 1.2MB/s. Microsoft is one of the few that I know of that can really dish the data out.....but how often are you downloading massive updates?

Not concerned with internet speed and more so looking at my internal network speeds for file transfers and such.
I get that it can be missleading but do not get that if the Evo4G which has a less powerful card than the 3D evidently that the 4G and 3D show the same link speeds.
I prob need to check the specs on each phones card really though the more i think about it b/c most i have been going off of is word of mouth like the 4G only having 1 antennae and such. No clue if the 3D has 2 or not.

You'll probably find that the WiFi and BlueTooth antenna are shared....and if a phone has an FM rx, it too will use that antenna. Not likely to find a cellular with dual WLAN antennas.....they're not really built to be a dedicated WIFI anything.
If you're concerned about xfer rates on the phone, yank the SD card out and put it in a reader. That's the fastest way to get data to the phone, followed by hooking up the phone via USB. The phone has no use for WLAN data rates above 15Mb/s. If you're transferring movie files, use the USB connection method. Outside of that, don't sweat it. I honestly couldn't see someone moving GBs worth of data on a constant basis with the phone.....and if you are, sounds like you should look at something with larger storage like a Tablet PC.

I hear ya im aware of outside options. I just thought that since this phone is supporting wireless N fully then the link speeds would be able to be higher than the link speed on the 4G.
But again like i said before i really need to get down to it and look at the documentation of the chips used on the 4G and 3D to see what differences there are.
EDIT:
NVM makes sense now. both phones have the same Broadcom chip inside. the Broadcom BCM4329.
BUT whats odd is that from what i read that chip only supports bluetooth 2.1 while we supposedly have 3.0 on this phone. Also interesting is the chip supports 5GHz dual band. here
I don't think my 3D has connected to 5GHz on my home network. I have a dual-band N router, and I have 5GHz as the primary, so my laptop and media player connect to that immediately.
I only noticed my 3D on the 2.4GHz part of my network. I haven't tried manually connecting it to the 5GHz band, but if it could, I would have assumed that it would automatically.

Well, when it comes to "N", there are several factors that come into play. One, the wireless chip MAY be able to support the A frequencies, you're talking about additional code to make it work with rest of the phone. Antenna isn't an issue since 2.4 is half of 5.0. A 1/2 wavelength 2.4GHz antenna, is about a full length 5GHz antenna if memory serves me correctly (that and the 36hrs I've been up). Another thing that comes into play as far as the bandwidth is concerned is channel width. There is also MIMO too....but the phones will be basic of basic. The fact that N support is enabled is surprising, but it's most likely just a selling point. It supports the most basic N, with the smallest channel width, and clearly MIMO isn't supported. Routers can be configured to B or G or N only, sometimes combos of them as well. I use DDWRT on my routers and it allows virtually everything to be manipulated. Either way though, there is a lot of features to cram into the small area that is the cellphone, and if you ever take a look at a full featured ABGN mini pci-e WLAN card, you will see that there is still a decent size to it when all the features are present.
Ok, I think that's about all I can add to the topic, LOL
N is the technology that delivers faster then G speeds using MIMO packets.
A is the technology that frees up the crowding of B/G Networks by running on 5GHZ as opposed to 2.4GHZ
BGN Refers to a 2.4GHZ spectrum capable of running the N packets.
ABG Refers to a 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ spectrum capable of running the B/G packets.
ABGN Refers to a 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ spectrum capable of running BGN packets.
It's retarded how they label it. LOL but you can run N on 2.4 spectrum or 5GHZ spectrum.
Most mobile devices only see 2.4GHZ spectrum since they only have one antenna.

Actually, abg means that it can use the 802.11a, 802.11b, or the 802.11g standard, and abgn adds 802.11n. 802.11A is a very different standard than N, and is incompatible with the others, whereas B, G, and N are forwards and backwards compatible, except for N going over a 5Ghz signal, which still isn't compatible with A.
All that said, I'm pretty sure that this phone will only support 802.11n over 2.4GHz at 150Mbps. I don't have the phone yet, but I'm basing this off the fact that nearly all portable devices that use 802.11n are that way. At least I haven't seen one that is capable of either using 5GHz, or 300Mbps.

I have the exact same issue. My laptop sees my 5ghz ssid, but my MT4G doesn't. The weird thing is, I've flashed several ROMS to my phone, and none see it. I did however, flash the stock ROM (froyo 2.2.1) today for the sh*ts and giggles of it, and it saw the N ssid! WTF.
I have the speedtest.net app on my phone but i'm getting very high ping ~100+ and download speeds of no more than ~2600kbps I have a 802.11G wifi and a 100mbit connection to the world, do we have such crappy wifi's on our phone?
My wife's LG P500 gets around ~8000kbps on the same router in the same spot
Could you guys who have access to a internet connection greater than 5mbit please try the speedtest.net app and report back to the thread test on wifi only plz
Just ran the app on my phone and PC. PC is running ethernet to the router; phone is obviously on wireless:
Phone is pinging 8ms more, which is expected.
What ROM are you running?
My speedtest app results on wifi ...
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA Premium App
I don't have an 5MBit internet connection, but if it makes you feel any better, I have a 30KBps connection.
Just flashed stock KPO
Did try a friends phone an SGS and he gets marginally better results...
Here are my results from a comp (with ehternet) and my phone
Flash a new ROM that's all i can say,
as you can already see people in here are getting such speeds of download/upload
There is nothing wrong with the Wifi adapter.. Flash another ROM as davinder mentioned.. If that doesn't work maybe somethings wrong with the Wifi adapter in your phone..
Just to let you know.
54Mbps is the theoretical max speed of 802.11g . file transfers are dependent on your system, and not just the transfer medium. For instance, if your HDD is being used simultaneously, your transfers are going to be affects by that. 3MB/sec is pretty decent for a wireless G connection IMO. other factors include electromagnetic interference; things like other wifi networks in the area, televisions, microwaves, and 2.4GHz wireless phones will interrupt 802.11 signals.
Ok, so I downgraded and still got the same results, but the comment about the HDD got me thinking about my SD card since it was the only thing on the phone not "stock" and I'm getting better results now wich is quite funny since the card I bought was a higher class Or so I thought atleast
I was wondering if any prime owners tryed to connect on a N-Only wifi?? on the box it says a/b,g,n wireless but when i try to set my wifi to N-Only, i can see the network but theirs no way the prime is connecting to it. I have to switch it back to either Mixed or G/N Mixed, and then im able to connect with a max connectivity with router of 54mbps. This problem was present before and after ICS update, my router is a Asus RT-N12 (tryed with stock firmware, updated stock firmware and with DDWRT). I Would like to know if any of you guys tryed this out I feel i'v been kinda scammed
PS. (I checked out on Q&A for the prime and couldnt find any post related to this if you guys know there is already one, please just give me the link i'll continu posting on the other thread thanks)
I can't connect to my "N" router either. Mine doesn't even show up in my TF.
is it a TF prime or the first one?
N-5ghz is not supported, putting it in 2.4Ghz mode should work (at least, it does on mine... whether there's a difference or not is another thing)
I can connect my prime to my router with N only as long as its on 2.4GHZ and between channels 1-11. I wish I could pick up 12-14 because I live in an apartment complex with crowded wifi. Router is Cisco E2000 with DDWRT firmware...
The link speed showing on the network signal app only maxes at 54 mbps though. I can stream 1080p mp4s from my network drive though so its fast enough for me...
RT-N12 is operating on 2.4ghz and does not support 5ghz. Are you sure you are in "N-Only" mode or are you in "Mixed"??
This has been discussed in great detail in general section. Its known Prime can't connect to 5Ghz. set it to 2.5 or G only. G only seems tl yield best results. also check this article out..might help.
www.smallnetbuilder.com/wireless/wireless-basics/30664-5-ways-to-fix-slow-80211n-speed
Yes, it connects 2.5 N only but the performance is pathetic. Prior to ICS, I got curious changing my 2.5 GHz band to strictly G. Saw an immediate boost in performance + speeds.
Yes so far I am very disappointed. I just got the Prime today and it immediately updated to ICS. Once that was done I started checking out the wifi ability right away, because of all the bad reports all over the internet. Much to my surprise, mine doesn't see my wireless N either. I had the TF101 prior and it worked fine with my router. My Samsung E4GT phone sees it just fine, and what really hurts is my wife's iPad 2 sees it, connects to it and pulls just under 20mbps speeds.
To say this sucks is an understatement. I hate losing to Apple in any way, and here I am with the latest and greatest Android tablet, and being punked by a nearly year old IOS device.
Crap
I have no wifi issues with my N router... Performance can be a little better (speed wise) but no issues connecting at all, my router is cisco

What do you stream over 5ghz network to iPad? 1080p movies? It redundant...just turn down to 2.4 and everyone is happy.
Having a technically higher spec which does not improve on daily usage is redundant.

Exactly, the prime doesn't support the 5Ghz frequency. Only supports 2.5ghz N or whatever. There's only a few tablets that do actually support 5ghz. All it takes is a simple change n it'll work. THE whole argument that it should work on any network is b.s. Especially if you have it set to something not supported. Doesn't take a genius to figure that out.
I've always used N-Only. I get a decent connection to my Transformer Prime with it too.
Mines is the cheap Belkin N150 router so I doubt it does that 5Ghz range as that seem like a setting for a higher priced N router.

Point 1: Your are in the US, so you are not allowed using anything except 1-11 by FCC regulations.
Point 2: N-Only often turns on channel bonding in soho equipment like yours, so it needs 8 full channels to use it properly. Each channel is 5 MHz apart from the other and a WiFi device uses channels in a/b/g that are 20 MHz wide, in 11n with channel bonding (which is an optional feature for the high data rates) they use channels of 40 MHz. So dividing the 40 Mhz by 5 Mhz makes using of channel 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7. If you would live in Japan, on only country that is allowed to use channel 14. So for US it would be channel 11-4. This explains why channel bonding in the 2.4 GHz band is a band ides unless you are living in a big ranch 500 feet away from the next WiFi router.

Cool device, taken from the specs page of belkin.com:
Security: Wi-Fi Protected Setup, 256-bit WEP (64-128bit), WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2- PSK (AES) with WPS Push Button
Range of up to 1,000 ft.
Link Rate: Up to 150Mbps in 40MHz Channel Mode Bandwidth 20 MHz & 20/40 MHz auto
ISP Protocols Supported Dynamic, Static, PPPoE, PPTP, Telstra Bigpond, L2TP
Compliant Standard IEEE 802.11b, 802.11g
So no 11n support per specs, but the Overview page tells 150 MBits are supported, so it can run 75 Mbits without channel bonding and 150 with.
Try out the WiFi Widget it tells you the data rate to the WiFi router.

I spent the extra money to purchase a dual band router, so I could broadcast N and G as two separate signals. As I understand it, if you broadcast both on a single signal, and you have some older devices that require and connect to the G band, it will automatically cut the speed back, to whatever the slowest device connected is capable of. At least that is the way it was explained to me. So the N was on 5ghz and G was on 2.4ghz. It has always worked with any other wireless N device I have had, until I got this "latest and greatest" tablet. So yes now I have downgraded my wireless network to only 1 band, to accommodate the Prime.

If you have 2.4ghz g network, prime should be able to detect it. Check if your dual band is working properly...
Wireless n is impt only if you stream HD movies. I stream music on g with no problem at all.
I know you feel frustrated, and I know it sucks as prime is supposed to be PRIME. If you intend to stream HD movies to prime you may have to "down grade" to 2.4ghz if not wireless N is kind of overrated or "miss used" as I see no use of having to stream HD to non HD devices. If you are a home theater enthusiastic or business it then wireless n 5mhz is a must.
Hope you can move on to appreciate the quad core of prime than dwelling on this issue.
Cheers!

it only connects to the 2.4 Ghz a/b/g mode...
Desn't work even if I set the "N" mode to 2.4 Ghz channel and turn OFF the a/b/g mode.

Hi.
What wifi speeds is the galaxy S9 plus capable of. I have Gigabit broadband and the max speed I can get on the 5Ghz is 160mbps.
The router from provider isn't the best
Will I get much higher speeds if I upgraded my router or purchased a wireless access point connected to 1gb LAN port and access point capable of 1300mbps on 5Ghz?
Thanks
I have 500Mbps from my provider plus custom router(DIR-882) AC2600 MU-MIMO. And this is what I can get(400Mbps) from room next to my router(3m + wall/door) : http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/4290259062
I've gotten up to about 530mbps once in a while. More typically just under 500.
You need a high end router in order to get higher speeds over WiFi
Try to change to a not frequented channel and set the Bandwith to 80MHz.
I can get 800Mbit/s when nobody other is using the WiFi.
Allways 866Mbps guys.
Tp-Link Vr900
But when i send videos to the nas usually the speed is 40mb/s
Maybe your drive in the NAS can only write with 40MB/s. Remember, that 40MB/s are 320Mbit/s.

I think that with 1+6 i was writing with 50-60mb/s.
Also my nas can write with 1gbit connection (lan) 100mb/s.
Do you have any sort of an extra firewall on your phone?

My S9+ will connect via 5GHz to my Netgear R8500 at a LAN speed of 1083Mbps - but you have to be within 3m/10ft to get that speed. It falls back to 866Mbps pretty quickly if you are only just a little further away.
Real-world download/throughput performance will be lower.
