Morning
Is there a fault with the tethering on this phone? I've tried connecting to my laptop, it finds and connects to the laptop but just says no Internet. So I connected my wife's pixel phone and it connected straight away. Is this another problem in the long line of other problems with this device?

Hmm strange how it connects but says no Internet on my surface book.
Being a UK user we had to wait for the WiFi problem to be fixed, still waiting on the ok Google fix and Google maps is really slow and jerky
This is what I get
ah, I haven't heard about the wi-fi problem.
have you tried with another computer ? Reset your wifi card, DHCP activated ... ?

Mate 10 Pro tehering
I'm having the same issue.
New Mate 10 Pro set up for thethering, Samsung Tablet connets to phone, phone sees tablet, but can't get any internet on tablet through phone. Tablet worked fine with old S5 Neo so not a tablet problem.
Seems to me the problem is with the phone as I see more and more people having the same problem.
Anyone know how to fix this yet?
Thanks
I'm also having trouble so far no apple devices can connect to my hotspot and most Androids cannot connect..A few Androids have connected , but most of the time comes back with authention error, this happens when I use or don't use a password.,I have the latest upgrade 8.0
I had this problem too - devices would connect to the hotspot but not be able to get online.
I found a guide on here saying to reset the APN and change a setting in it... Worked perfectly since. I don't have the guide bookmarked but try searching.

I found my reply in another thread which worked for me:
I had this issue on a Mate 10 Pro - hotspot would connect, but no data throughout. It worked on SIM 2 but not SIM 1, and SIM1 is the main SIM I want to tether using.
I reset all network settings (system, reset, network settings reset), reset the APN (wireless & networks, mobile network, access point name, three dots), added a new APN and that got tethering to work on either SIM slot.
Would confirm that this is the solution - perfect on the three occasions it's not worked in 6 months.

I'm glad it helped someone. I was about ready to sell the phone if tethering didn't work, and spent ages looking for a fix after endless hard resets.

Have you tired adding any other devices on your home network to ensure its not your modem ?
i can connect my notebook and my gf cellphone =(
Try wifi manager i think it will work on wolfs rom you can check with him or just try it, it's free an if you have a password on your wifi check that and your settings on your phone.
there is some wifi finders too try them on your phone to see if it can see your wifi.

problem solved!
just changed channel from 12 to 11 on router settings
***
type 192.168.1.1. on your browser
skip to advanced options and on channel choose 11
=)
That rom wolf just put out so give him a little time to tweak it. Is there something in his forum about it. He was just on his forum at 2:47am updating it so maybe reflash or wait. Also did you do a service menu check on phone to see if all is ok ?
Adhoc Wifi Connection problem.....
Hi!
I am being unable to connect my Xperia X10 with the adhoc wifi connection. I am using MIUI 1.9.9. My phone connects smoothly to Wifi Router but does not connect to Adhoc Wifi connection. Though it shows the adhoc connection yet does not connect to it.
Hope somebody there will be able to help me.
This is a weird one. For a month I have been using the Leedroid rom with Honeycomb. I have the /htc /flyer 32gb with 3g (UK). In the last few days I have lost my internet connection on both wIFI and on 3g. I did get it back for a few hours today and now I can't connect again!
Having a tablet with without connectivity is a bit like having a fancy brick :-(
I have tried removing the Sim card and re-inserting it and trying a different wifi router.
Anyone else had issues like this?
i assume you haven't made any changes/modifications/installations recently that may have messed with it?
for your 3G connectivity, put your sim card in your phone to determine whether the issue lies with the sim card or the Flyer...also check your APN settings
same with wifi - can you connect your phone to your router's wifi?
my guess is that you installed an app that's messed with your settings
Problem solved (sort of)
Thanks for the reply
You may have been right that an app messed up my settings. I know the APN settings were correct as I could connect from my Nokia phone using them and the SIM card. I could also use two other definitely internet connected routers.
In the end I did a factory reset using CWM. After a few scary moments after the re-boot it was working again. Evidenced by the fact that after reboot the tablet tried to download my previously installed apps again!
I have had to re-do some settings and the Flyer seems to be runnng a lot more smoothly than before. Still no idea what caused my problems but will definitely be checking after I install apps in future that my web connection stays up just in case! Update, it seems my g and ADSL wifi are not getting along together - had no probs before though....mmmm....

you can stop that from happening...that's a "feature"...lol...either untick "back up my settings" under >settings/privacy; or don't add a google account after a new flash until you have reinstalled apps from a backup

some people have had success changing the wifi channel on the router to something higher than 11 (so i've heard, i've never had to do it myself)...you may also want to try setting static IPs for any other wifi devices to avoid conflicts
either way, it is far more likely that the issue would be settings other than ROM related, else everyone else would be having the same issues
you could also try something like this

Just got a RAZR XT910 yesterday, It updated to 2.3.6 right away; well right after I figured out that I needed to manually enter the AT&T Access Point settings. LOL. Anyway everthing is working great EXCEPT the Mobile Hotspot. I can connect to it with my laptop and but get the pop-up message "No Internet Access" or "Limited Access" I have two phone lines with data, one has a tethering package, the other doesn't. Same situation on both. I know it isn't a network problem, cause the Hopspot works fine when either SIM is in my Galaxy Nexus. I'm really stumped, so was wandering if maybe since I had to enter the Access Points for AT&T manually there might be something more that I need to enter for the HotSpot & Tethering(no, tethering doesn't work either) The Nexus worked right out of the box. Any insight or ideas would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Hi guys,
So my Evo 3D updated to ICS last night, internet worked before and after update. The phones internet just stopped working, it connects to the wifi router, tries to sync, i try open anything that requires internet and no internet. The symptoms are as if i entered a setting wrong, but trust me i have been trying this for hours to FORGET network then re-add it. I rebooted the router, i have tried connecting to another router, it connects but no internet (i am using static, its my work connection). I can ping the phone.
What are your suggestions? I have cleared all cache, took battery out. When i use Mobile Network everything then works. This is very frustrating as Wifi should be a simple thing for Android. PLEEEEEASSSEEE get this working
I have the same problem... today i updated my evo to android ICS and connect to wifi, wifi is connected, but not internet
Try to do factory reset.
Sent from my PG86300 using TapaTalk 2.0
I tried but it did not help..
Simple, ##786#. Enter your MSL code. Click yes. Phone will format itself (no, not your SD card). It will clear any NV (Non-Volatile) memory. And it will have blanked out IDs for Username and MEID and whatnot. This is not just a factory reset or a /data wipe. After it finally boots up, it will give the 'Hands-Free Activation', followed by 1x connection, followed by 3G.
I am assuming that the ICS update was an OTA, which means that I am unaware of the official Sprint update. I'll read the General forums see if that's what it is. Nonetheless, if this is a custom ROM, be aware that some custom ROMs will NOT properly activate after an RTN reset. In the case that it IS the case; and you don't have any connectivity, even phone services, simply flash a Stock rooted ROM. Edit: I see you did mean the official OTA, so ignore this paragraph as it only applies to a few custom Sense ROMs, and all AOSP ROMs which can accept ##RTN#.
In the case that your phone is not rooted / S-Off, ignore the entirety of the 2nd paragraph.
Hmm, maybe ignore all this, seeing as how I misread it was your WiFi erroring. I do not see how an RTN will fix that. One of the .ko files probably needs replacing.

Same problem here. I connect to home wifi with static IP address and I can access everything in LAN but internet does not work. Yesterday I was connected on DHCP wifi at work and it worked without problem and when I came home, at my surprise, my static home network also worked (without changing anything). But today I was not connected to work wifi and when I came home I got same problem again

There are also others with same problem: http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-3d/183734-no-internet-access-through-wifi-after-evo3d-upgrade-ics.htm
DNLA auto-IP make sure thats not checked It shows connected when this option is checked but internet does not work. Make sure DNLA auto IP is not checked. This is under advanced options.
Hi!
I had the same problem yesterday as I installed the TeamGenesis 1.0 ICS ROM.
I restored all my data (also the system settings) and there was the problem. The "APN" has to be reset in the settings to default and than it worked for me again.

try configuring your mobile network access point.

OTA upgrade sometimes cause problem, please search a RUU ICS Stock, extract to get rom.zip, rename it and flash it via Fastboot.
sup everybody.
firstly, i am a wireless expert (11+ years experience) so im not a nuubie to Wireless networks.
but i am new to Android and have just recently gotten an S3, so im hoping some body can help me.
i have an 802.11n wireless hop that connects my upstairs network to my downstairs network (internet router is downstairs)
upstairs i have an 802.11b/g access point for the older devices to connect to, this access point is connected to my 802.11n bridge
my laptop connects to the 802.11b/g network fine, and has internet connectivity (no issues)
when i first got the S3 last night, it was connecting fine as well, but since this morning, no matter what i do, the S3 connects to the access point, gets DHCP, i can ping the IP address, but it doesnt have net access, but if i connect to the 802.11n network it gets net access.
so for the life of me i cant figure out why.
so in a nutshell net access works from the laptop, but not the S3, same access point, and yes ive checked the WPA2 passkey, and the device is getting DHCP.
any suggestions.
like how to reset the IP address on the S3
Tried restarting your rooter?

Sounds like the default gateway route is not correctly received or activated. Do you have any computer/laptop with a promiscuous-capable Wifi card around that you might use with Wireshark? It should tell what exactly goes wrong.
Since you claim to be a Wifi expert I guess you won't need much help interpreting the result.

Try shutting off ur router.... Wait for a min or so then turn it bak on nd see what happens. I have an intellinet router which when the current goes off nd then on im able to connect to everythng except all google services (gmail, search, reader, syn, etc.) until i do the above. All my other devices connect fine in the meantime! Must be smthng with android....
- check the ip address.
- from device, ping its default gateway
- from device, ping external ip address that is known to response to ping
if all those works but you can't ping www.yahoo.com, it is resolver issue.
if all those including pinging yahoo works, and you still have no access, then the apps has issue or there is firewall.
2 S3 in a 3 days (Internet Isues)
Well, a seven days ago itake a Galaxy S3 from my carrier: Ancel (Uruguay).
IN the First day all fine,but in the night it can´t connect with 3g. In the other day the Wifi STOPs. TheS3 conect with the rooter but can´t navigate.
I change the rooter, resetthe phone (factory Reset) but the thinks not change.
I comeback to my carrierand Ancel take my old phone and give me a new S3 (1 day old).
For 2 days, it go well, butin the final of the second day, No wireless or 3g connect, the same again.
It´s a |Firmware problem, ahardware damage, what suppose I have to do ???
My computer is normal, myold N97 is fine, It has 3G signal and navigate on Wifi and 2G/3G, but my galaxyS3 no …
I ´m very confused with this situation ... Twophones in a 3 days …

TRY
call *#0011# (Takes phone into service menu)
press menu key and select wifi
Disable wifi powersaving mode
You may need to repeat this upon phone restarts but it may well sort out your problem

This technique works for me but only like a temporary solution. Restarting the home router also works for me but again is temporary. This issue I think is with most galaxy s3 devices. I own a galaxy tab 10.1 and it's there in it as well. huge pain to check each time, critical notifications are always missed. Have switched to bluetooth internet sharing from my laptop to avoid disruptions as I just can't trust the wireless.

None of both have commented on my suggestion to use Wireshark on another computer to see what's actually going on.
It's hard to guess the reason since by crystall ball is broken and it's nearly impossible to get magical artifacts in pristine conditions on ebay...
No Way.
But after reset the configurations, today in 3G mode al is fine.
In wifi it shows Conected in calennetwork, after this it show internet not avaliable via selected wlan ap. It can´t navigate.
In my router page , the received packets always change, for more data and the sent packets never change.
In the avanced configuration what is the Network prefix lenght ? In my XT860 and N97 i always select the channel of the router, but in the galaxy a don´t have this option.
But the strange, is that in the 2 galaxy s3 in the first day work im my router, and then after some hours it´s crash and not navigate...
Very bad Samsung.
I´m thincking in change my S3 for a S2 or Lumia.
I´m disapointed for it, because if i change the Firmware version i lost the warranty and i have bad feeling about this isues... Is a hardware fault or a software bug ???

You only lose warranty if you bring it to a store without original Rom. Just use the normal procedure (TriangleAway, Odin, Factoryreset) to get it back to stock and you're good to go. If your device has issues preventing it from booting (so you cannot re-flash original) they can't check the binary counter either :angel:
THancks for the help.
I will going to look for triangleway & Odin in the forum.
With my Motorola XT860 i made a lot of stuff: CWM, Custom Roms... but i dont´t know nothing about the S3.
Just some days reading here in XDA and a will going to know all that kind os Staff.
Sorry for the BAd English...
I'm having this issue. I think it has to be a firmware issue as I don't think I get it if I use CyanogenMod9 or 10 (but I could be wrong)
It really is very annoying and somewhat disappointing.
Hello Again!
I tested my S3 in others routers, and all the router that working without sharedkey (open network) my S3 can conect and acess the internet.
Test your phone with one and post for us here.
OBS: In my TP link TL-WR642G it can´t conect (with and without Shared key) but in the first day yes, i don´t understand it.
I will going to 3 school who has open Internet for all the childrens and this 3 schools my s3 conect and navigate in the Internet.
Thancks for the support, if anybody change the firmware and the phone come normal again, please comeback here and post for us.

Anyone with this issue, please try the following:
- Take a Nandroid backup of your phone (on the internal SDcard, restoring from external seems to be broken)
- Flash CM9
- Try Wifi
If it works, please report. if it doesn't, restore the Nandroid backup and report =)
Since CM9 is not based on Samsung-software, that should answer the question about it being an issue in the newer Rom once and for all.
