Device can't detect wifi

Hi I would like to ask, what are some of the core files that wifi depend on to be able to work?
And what permissions are set for those files? I am using a Cowon Z2 which runs on Android 2.3.5, and it suddenly stops detecting hotspots. It just keeps scanning endlessly with no hotspots. My Nexus S can detect and connect still.
I tried a couple of things like, removing the data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file to allow it to generate a new file, but it still fails.
Please let me know what are the files I should see to ensure that wifi works.
OR
How do I know if my wifi hardware is dead?
Thanks
Check what kernel u use. Some kernel doesnt contain wifi libs, neither the ROM. Ask ur ROM n kernel dev for more info.

I didn't install any custom ROM for my Cowon Z2, as there are no ROM for it. It's running stock.

[Q] Wifi and Bluetooth Modules

Hi All,
My company has bought us 5 Galaxy Tab 2 10's to use on the job for displaying photos etc to customers, but they are insisting we have bluetooth and wifi permenantly disabled so they can't be used for anything else. I have looked around on google and found that I need to root the devices and then rename some module files to disable the wifi and bluetooth chips.
So far I have rooted one (no problems) and installed root explorer, gone into system/libs/modules where I found 2 files, I renamed one to .bak and rebooted as a test and now it won't boot! But anyway I will reflash it to get it fixed, my question is....
What are the names of the files I need to rename on the Galaxy Tab 2 10 to disable wifi and bluetooth? Are they in system/lib/modules on this device or somewhere else?
Thanks in advance, Mike.

AFAIK this is not possible. You can either use wifi for connecting your device to the internet, or to provide a wifi hotspot for other devices.
If you need a device being able to do both things in parallel, then get a wifi repeater. Not a smartphone.

I can use Wifi and Hotspot simultaneously on my LineageOS 18.1, Android 11 on my Xiaomi Mi A2 without problem.
I don't know what you have to enable that if your not using LOS but maybe you can ask LOS Devs or look at their source code.
