[Q] Wifi hotspot does not show up in WLAN list?

I just got my new Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 WIFI version. I am able to connect to the internet smoothly with my home WLAN network. However, when I turn on the wifi hotspot from my mobile phone, the tab does not recognize it (WIFI analyzer can though). My Lenovo laptop can see it and connect via it to the internet, so the hotspot itself is working.
I am just wondering if connecting to wifi hotspot is really supported in the tab and/or Android 3.1?
Thank you for your advice in advance
Connecting to an "Access Point" Hotspot works fine, tested it with my Galaxy S. Maybe your phone opens an Ad Hoc network?
thanks. this seems to be right into the point. i use symbian phone running joiku, and it indeed seems to support adhoc mode only. so anyway to enable adhoc wifi connecting support in my tab?
Haven't tried it myself but it seems there is a patch in the development section which enables ad-hoc network detection/connection (Tab needs to be rooted): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123638
Thank you. Now I have managed to make the adhoc wifi connecting work by following the instructions behind the above link

[Q] Help: ZT-180 and Adhoc

Hey All,
First post here in the Galaxy tab forum but I frequent the XDA phone forums. I have a question (and I have done plenty of searching online and in the forums) but can not seem to get this to work.
My Galaxy Tab 10.1 WIFI only is rooted and has the newest TASK650 ROM installed. I am using the Motorola Photon 4G (rooted as well) with Barnacle WIFI tether. The Photon creates an adhoc network.
I have installed ZT-180 adhoc switcher on my Galaxy Tab and can not seem to get it to connect to my phone for tethering. I have made sure the SSID on both the ZT-180 app on the tab and the tethering app (Barnacle) match.
In the ZT-180 app on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 WIFI only, I switch from infrastructure mode to adhoc and it will not connect nor does it seem to do anything.
When I switch back to infrastructure mode it will connect to my home internet but switching to adhoc mode does nothing. Barnacle WIFI tethering on my phone is running and I can confirm I can connect to a computer for access. I have disabled WEP security just to be sure.
I know this topic has been discussed before but I could not seem to find the answers so I came here.
I hope you all can help a brother out.
Thanks again!
-Matt
Anyone?
Edit* i was able to connect my phone and tab via bluetooth and turn on Barnacle tether and it works. Thanks

[Q] Nook Tablet Tethering Issue

I have a nook tablet (not rooted) that will not connect to my Droid X2 (rooted) tether wireless connection. I am able to connect to the tether wireless connection with my laptop though. Thoughts or somehow to resolve this issue??
Your Droid2 is likely broadcasting in ad-hoc mode. Android cannot by default, connect to ad-hoc networks, only infrastructure. Your laptop can do both.
Look around the forums here for the ad-hoc fix.
thanks
Thank you for the response, I will have to check around to find that fix.

[Q] Getting Internet from my DsL Laptop to my Android Devices

Hey guys,
I am currently really desperately looking for a way to get Internet from my DSL-enabled Notebook to my Galaxy S2 and my Asus TF700T Tablet. I am in Finnland on a hotel so I don't have 3g here.
So the facts:
My Laptop has a Wifi Bigfoot Wirless n 1103 network card without Bluetooth.
First I tried to do is setting up a Virtual Wireless Hotspot which kind of worked, but only for a few moments. Got a connection on both devices but then the Hotspot somehow disappeared. Don't know why. Maybe it is due to the Network Card, which is built for good gaming performance over Wifi.
Anyone an idea whats wrong with my Virtual Wifi Hotspot?
Next thing I tried is to set up an Ad Hoc- Wifinetwork over the PC which kind of worked, but both Android devices can't see ad hoc networks and there seemed to be no working wpa_supplicant for jellybean. Both Android devices are on PAranoidAndroid 2.99 by the way and the Laptop is on Win 7.
Does anyone know a way to enable this to see Ad Hoc Wifi networks?
So next thing I tried is Tethering over USB with Android Reverse Tethering which worked for the Tablet but not for the Galaxy S2 for a reason I dont know.
So does anyone know, why it does not work on the S2?
Next I tried setting up a Wifi Hotspot on the Tablet with the app Wifi Tether which kind of worked, but unfortunately this is an ad hoc network which again my Galaxy S2 can't see.
Does anyone know an app that creates an infrasturctured Wifi Hotspot instead of ad hoc?
Then I tried setting up Bluetooth Tethering from Tablet to GS2 which I didn't got to work (Connection established but don't know how to get the Internet working then.
Anyone got an idea about this?
Anything else I could try?
I really didn't believe that this is so hard to do
