Hello there devs!
I'm having a Wi-Fi issue with my 3 year old GT-I9300.It seems that my phone ain't connecting to Wi-Fi.But my other devices like my Lumia and the HP Slate tablet connects to my Wi-Fi hotspot that's hosted in my PC
(I don't have a Wireless modem).I've did a factory reset,installed a new ROM,and pretty much everything else :/
It would be nice if you guys helped me...
Does it connect to other wifis around? Cafe or somewhere outside?

Nope..I've tried it.Might be a hardware issue.

Upgraded from SGS to SGS 2 over the weekend and love the new phone. The only thing I am having troubles with is the Portable Wi-Fi hotspot tethering. If I use USB tethering it works perfectly but if I use Portable Wi-Fi hotspot with my computer it is slow/clunky and often reverts to "limited connection" on the computer and then under the Portable Wi-Fi hotspot heading on the phone it comes up with Error (in blue).
Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions or idea's?
For all of those who wish to post "Just use usb tethering" I will thank you in advance so you don't have to post!
My preference is to use Portable Wifi hotspot.
There must be some data network problem with ur network carrier,,,mine is working just fine,,
but it happens when 3g strength is bad,,
Thanks for the reply but if this was the case then the internet on the phone and with the USB tethering would be the same and they are not, so I am pretty sure it is just related to the wireless tethering. Hope this helps explain why I think you are on the wrong track. Cheers.
I've been meaning to post about myself too. Tethering sometime is very slow. But when I tried download using the phone, the speed its great. Must be software related problem.

Yes I am not the only one there is a thread over at the Vodafone Community (AU) site that a couple of other people seem to be having the same problem and it appears Voda have acknowledged there is a problem.
This happens to me too. Using Villainrom 2.1. Same problem when I was using Litening 3.0.
USB tethering is ok, but WiFi keeps disconnecting. Didn't have this problem with my old Galaxy S.
Also, do anyone else notice that when USB tethering, charging doesn't work very well.
Samsung and Voda have acknowledged that this is now a known issue and they are working on a fix however there is no ETA at the moment.
This problem seem to have gone away after I flashed to KG3. Will continue to monitor if it still happens.

Hey that sounds great. Could you let me know in a couple of days how it all goes.
Just one other thing, through testing found that the first time it connected it worked perfectly but reboot the phone (and in this case several laptops) and the problem started.
Thanks again for the feedback.
Been using WiFi hotspot on KG3 past couple of days for many hours at a stretch (need to keep charger plugged in, of course). Running beautifully. No disconnects or hangs. Sometimes with 2 or 3 devices connected to it.
Same to me!
I have 2.3.4 KG2 with CF-Root and have no stability issues on Wifi hotspot tethering.

Here you've got some info. Unfortunately you will have to wait for a root solution.
yes I tried some posts but nothing else
Yes we are waiting developers friends
Tried it using an aircard but android only picks up the usb stick.
I dont know if it actually help but I saw this on tech republic when they open the tablet.
3G-ready motherboard and case: Sony left an open spot on the motherboard and inside the case for a 3G or 4G card. The internal mounting bracket even has screw holes for it.
Dont know if it is possible to add an internal modem or install driver for that.

At least worked for me. It disables other functions of USB 3G sticks and leave them to be acting only as 3G modem, which then tablet recognizes.
Is there anything new? I have got rooted ICS on my tablet. Is it possible to use 3G USB Modem on my tablet? I have got 2 USB-Modems. The first is ZTE K3565-Z and the second is Option 4G Systems XS Stick P14. Is there a solution?

If darkjesus's method didn't work, then I'm not sure anything will. These modems are not easy to work on a lighter system like Android.
I'm happy to be proven wrong, of course.
In a german forum, i found an app called "UMTS Manager". With this app you can connect with 3G Networks with some Huawei-Sticks and maybe some other devices, too. They use mode-switch to switch device mode to modem only and then it works for them. Here's the link:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/asus-ee...-stick-zum-laufen-kriegen-17.html#post3236187
Of course, a lot of pages But some of them got ZTE K3565-Z working. For me it doensn't. Maybe we can find a solution
I found the reason, why it does not work on Tablet S. Our Tablet does not create ttyUSB*-devices when attaching 3G Modem to the Tablet. Normally it creates ttyUSB*-devices, attaches the Modem there and you are able to connect. I think it's a kernel issue or Sony modified the kernel. But with Custom Rom and Kernel which has got this "feature" it is possible to connect via 3G Modem. Maybe one of us could create this custom Rom..
So how?

You will have better success looking for a portable 3G-to-WiFi hotspot device. Not only will you not have to worry about installing USB modem drivers, the device will work with a non-rooted tablet. Also, if you have a 3G smart phone, look into WiFi tethering.

Yup, finally I bought portable 3g/4g wireless n router. Easy to use. Thanks by the way.
HELLO PLZ HELP ME OUT..
After 3 days of research over internet i finally can tell that i have successfully rooted my SAMSUNG S 3(i9300) ver (4.1.1) but still i am not able to find any strong development on ADHOC enabler of galaxy s3.
I am not able to connect My rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 jelly bean with WiFi shared via Adhoc method from my laptop (Vista Sp-2) or can say that with Ad-hoc network. I tried to root my newly purchased S3 and installed WIFI adhoc enabler and also replaced the wpa_supplicant, But still adhoc network are not working.
I followed this method but no success on Samsung Galaxy (i-93000 V 4.1 Jelly bean )
Please help me out its very urgent as i am not having Wifi connection I am using USB 3g Internet
No solution that I know of...
There are some work arounds posted for WiFi tethering, but I have not seen a solution that provides ad-hoc wifi support for Galaxy S III or Nexus 7. Since these devices have been around for some time now, this is either not a important problem (perhaps work arounds make it less of a problem) or a very hard problem, or even worse... both.
I would like to connect to the Brookstone Rover 2.0 for example, but cannot unless I can solve the ad-hoc WiFi issue. The workarounds are not of any help so far.
I have not jumped into a deep technical review of the issue so I cannot comment. I was hoping someone already had this worked out or was working on it. If not then I will start looking more closely at the problem.
Still no response
Plz help me out still i am not lucky enough

Sorry for reviving a very old thread but I too have a s3 (i747m with JB 4.1.1 stock rooted) that I've tried getting adhoc working. I've also tried everything the OP mentioned with no luck. I have a laptop (running WinXP) in my company truck that's has a 24/7 cell data connection. With my iphone5 I can connect using adhoc no problem but the s3 will not even detect the ssid. I've been reading for the last 3 days and haven't found a solution to this. I'm hoping someone has finally released some sort of patch. Failing that I'm due for a computer upgrade soon so hopefully I'll get win7
Hello guys! So I have Acer Aspire V3 laptop, USB cable and DSL modem (no WiFi), but I need internet connection in my SGS 2 (mobile internet doesn't work right now because of the lack of cash and the limit of it sucks a lot :| ), so would it be possible to get that connection in any ways?

On s2 you can only share internet from the phone to the device as PC or laptop but it cannot be reversed :/
Then maybe someone knows where to get free and working Connectify? Because with that program you can freely share WiFi through PC or Laptop to any other device
Do a Google/XDA search for 'reverse tethering'.

Just tried this and it doesn't worked for me :| I didn't got any errors but didn't got internet too :q I will try to look for solution with this tutorial, thanks
It's absolutely possible, plenty of people here have done it. But it's not a simple thing to do. You'll find out how/get it working if you're motivated enough.
Hey guys
Wondering if you can provide me with something or help me with a problem i have.
My phone is a Nokia E73. I use Joikuspot with it.
Would like to to use my Nokia E73 as a Wifi hotspot using Joikuspot.
My tablet is the only device which doesn't see the Nokia in its wireless devices. I think this could be down to the fact it is Adhoc.
I have tried replacing the WPA Supplicant but it stops my wifi working all together.
Wondering if this is because i now use Kitkat.
Can someone point me in the direction if you have come across this issue?
Thank you.

tablet that cant see wifi is pretty useless to me
