Just a couple of days back I was able to connect my phone to the laptop and easily turn on the USB tethering to share the Internet access with the laptop. But all of a sudden it has stopped working. When I connect the phone and try to turn it on now, it will flick to the on state for a second and then get turned off again.
Other phones are working fine. So it's the phone that has the problem. Not the laptop.
Please help!

so i was at the Borders bookstore yesterday connecting through wifi. I download a program from the Market that I believe was called Wifi Status. I installed it and then removed it. Then all of a sudden my wifi doesn't work anymore.
Do I just need to install this program again to get it working? The weird thing is, it shows that I am connected to my router at home now, but when I try to use the web to connect to wifi...it says I have no network connect. Please help!
I just realized I can't just go to androidzoom.com to download any programs to my computer and install it on my phone through a USB cable. Some people help!
I'm not sure quite what is going on here, but did you reboot your phone to see if that fixes it?
My wifi stopped working once I hard reset and poof its normal again lol
I've been using the latest release of Tesla Coil, which really is a great ROM and I have had no problems up until now.
I have been tethering just fine via USB, using HTC's Internet Connection Mode whilst we change ISPs, but for some reason this morning it refuses to work.
I plug in the USB cable, I get the prompt on the phone and select ICM and then... nothing! The device isn't detected by Windows 7 (it had been coming up as HTC Ethernet Adapter 9k, or something similar.)
I tried enabling it by going into Settings -> Wireless & Networks - Internet Connection Mode, I check the box, get the little Mobile Hotspot prompt and then ICM becomes unchecked again.
I'm pretty new to Android and really, I solved my problem by using Barnacle Wifi Tether, but I really want to learn why this has happened and how to fix it
On my backflip running CM7 from Jr0dd I used to be able to use USB tethering while the phone is connected via wifi with airplane mode on ( in essence turning my phone into a really overdone USB Wlan stick )
On the Atrix with airplane mode on, turning on tethering over USB, everything seems to go okay. The phone can get online via my works wifi router fine. my tethered computer can't ping IP addresses or domain names through terminal though. Rebooted the phone and restarted tethering with the same results. If I disable airplane mode and shut off wifi, tethering over 3G / H+ works fine, its just slow and noisy on speakers.
I used this for computers that have an iffy Wlan card often and would like to know if this was never intended to work, only was a fluke that it did, or if I can show a logcat or similar so someone smarter than I can investigate the issue.
Thanks in advance. =)
Upon connecting my phone to usb, everything's fine for like 20 seconds but then my usb wireless adapter is completely disabled and I have to reboot my PC to get it back working.
ADB sees my device for that short period of time after connecting it, but it disappears as well afterwards.
Anyone knows what's up?
Thanks in advance.
Hello everyone I am having a problem with my wifi for my phone. About a week ago my problem started. My wifi would not connect to my phone. Like one minute it will connect and then disconnect after that it would say "saved, secured" I would try to connect to it and it would also say "Authenticating" after that it would say "connecting" and would say "saved, secured again and wouldn't connect. THEN it would say authentication error/problem and still would not connect and the cycle would repeat ALL over again I did ALMOST EVERYTHING. I turned the wifi on and off, I turned the airplane mode on and off, I went to advanced wifi on my wifi settings and on the "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" and checked always, I unplugged the router for 10 seconds and plug it back in, I would forget the network and try to reconnect to it, I also clicked Add Network and re-add my wifi network, I would turn my phone on and off (and I did this like 5 times), I would take the battery out for about a minute or so and I even factory reset the phone about 4-6 times and it STILL wouldn't work. The funny thing about is that ally other devices have no problem connecting to the wifi such as my iPod, computer, ps3, mom's phone and my bro's phone. So would anyone please help me! I even contacted my wifi company and the LG company but still no help. So can anyone please help me fix this problem?????!!!!???!!!!??
