PSP showing up on my wireless network list? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

While I was waiting to watch Superman yesterday, I noticed these two guys playing a PSP racing game against each other. I wanted to see how these guys were playing against each other - wifi or bluetooth. I fired up my wireless network list and saw them. You'll see a screenshot of what I saw when I got home. During their race I was able to log on to their network with a good signal. What could I of done? IM them? Send a message to them? Browse their files?

I believe PSP's have built in wireless.

I have a PSP and I use the Wireless Connection for multiplayer.
The wireless card is very good and can reach access points far more than 10 meters. 8)

tv on dash

i jus got the dash and was wondering is ther n e way 2 get tv on it without havn cable/satellite at home. really im soo jealous of every1s dash..like can someone help me pimp mine out =[
u need tcpmp player and/or blue ray to watch streaming video. i havent done it yet cuz i dont really use web on mine, but i dont think its that big of a deal cuz its kinda laggy of the ones ive seen. but if u really want it that bad, get wifi running on ur dash and look for web sites that have streaming video, like youtube or cnn.
congrats on getting the dash and not going main stream and getting the curve. once u know how to use the dash, its so much fun using it for just bout everything on a smartphone.
well, first thing u wanna do is to update ur rom to 'kavana.rickywytt.080330'. i know theres a lot of reading but u have to so u dont brick ur new dash. after u do that then come back to this in a few days. thats what i would do. thats what i did when i got my dash a month ago. well, my 1st update was the brightpoint 1.33. anyways this is the best time to get a dash so much fun!
I would suggest not upgrading the rom until your used to the phone.
Also for streaming TV, you can try MobiTV, they have some live TV feeds, also Vtap is great for Youtube.
For radio Live365 is awesome.
You can also go to www.orb.com to get some internet TV stations and also stream your own media from your PC to your phone. The software is free.

Orb is a little quirky sometimes, when it works it's great, when it doesn't, you find out you recorded 6 hours of PBS pledge drives.
Seriously, I've used it, it works pretty well.

Well since he stated that he didnt have cable or satellite at home...it'd really suck buying a TV tuner and hooking up a pair of "rabbit ears" to it or having to buy a DTV tuner. Which is why i stated internet TV channels / vs. the need for a PC Tv tuner..even if the Internet channels are a bit limited and not localized

slingbox over 3g tmo usa

I was wondering if anyone else was having problems with the slingbox on tp2 for tmo usa. It will work instantly if i am trying it over wifi but over 3g it will not find my box. Any suggestions?
mine works great. i use it at work...tmobile and on my rides to and from school. no problem, great frame rate as well
did you change any settings to make it work? I downloaded slingbox mobile from official website and can't connect to my slingbox. Have tried pretty much everything and can't figure it out.
works just fine here. ave network speed where is use it is 600 kbps. no lag in connecting to slingbox. one thing i noticed form my experience with my slingbox AV is that you have to stop the player before turning off the application. otherwise, it may lock you out for a period of time and the only way to watch it again is to log back in as an admin.

HTC One Media Link

Hi so I got the free HD Media Link that AT&T was offering with pre-order of the phone. Is there anyone else having issues trying to have it connect? I have read that you have to turn of your 5GHz on the wifi router in order of the Media Link to work, which it did when I reset my router, then it went back to trying to connect as a HotSpot. ATT charges allot for this option the HotSpot, so anyone with suggestions on how to get the media link to stay connected through the router? Thank you for your help in the matter,
-AkWingnut
I am using the Media Link that I bought separately for $80. at the Sprint store I think it was the only one in the town where I live as I had to call around a bunch of stores for it. I have a wireless G router and it connects pretty good. I stream video, watch tv, play video games, etc.. Some time it lags a little. On my Sprint HTC One if it disconnects abruptly for some reason you see a error message about the hot spot too - but I think thats normal because its sending a wireless transmission from the phone to media link and I think it uses part of hot spot or something. Did you swipe the screen with three fingers upward to connect to media link. Or on my phone if you go into android settings there is a separate media link button to click and connect to media link. Hope this helps maybe.

It's an issue with AT&T and tethering at the moment. HTC says they are working on a fix.. only option right now is to root and flash the tethering or hotspot mod available in the one AT&T development section in xda.

Yeah I have followed the directions and even reset the box a few times. When I do however shut off the 5GHz and reboot the router I can login, I have only been able to do this twice now. Each time I try and do the swipe it tries to connect then switches to HotSpot. I believe it is an issue with ATT which upsets me because it was one of the reasons I got the HTC One was the media link but if the ad was used to trick me into purchasing the HTC One then I am going to make sure that ATT knows about this and I will be more than happy to vent my frustrations with them... Thanks for the reply.

I started getting the tethering error too. Evidently, HTC is aware of a problem. I saw some things on the web that said try turning the airplane mode on. I tried that and it did not work. However, I got to thinking well it was working fine - what changed. I turned my bluetooth on and off again and that it started working. Try connecting with bluetooth turn on. Once you connected turn off bluetooth. I did this and now I don't have any problems again. I think there is something wrong with bluetooth interfering with media link.

I have a smart dock and it works great. There is also hml cables that do the job too. And if you have chromecast you can mirror your screen but can lag or skip.

AT&T U-verse

If anyone is interested, I have found that the AT&T Uverse app for tablets works fine on the AFTV....with two caveats. 1.) To receive the broadcasts you must use the AFTV on wi-fi. Because the app searches for a wireless signal it will not recognize an ethernet connection. 2.) If you are using your AFTV outside of your home the app will default tot he out of home listings meaning that there will be no local stations listed. Other than that, it will work fine. The only other annoyance was the need to log in every week or so. Here is the official link. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.att.labs.uversetv.android.tablet . Just sideload the app as normal.
WiFi only.
I tried running the apk last night and it would immediately crash after entering my credentials. I will try running it from a WiFi connection and see if that changes things.
Do you need a mouse with this app, or will the FTV controller work?
Can this run from the FTV stick too?
The next trick is to learn how to use this from outside the home and still have full channel access. I read under the TWC app that you can some how set a proxy back to your home to get "on network" channel access.
Thanks!
Switching Live Channels
Thanks for the heads up on this. I got it installed on my fire stick and it works fine. My only issue is I can't change channels on the live broadcasts. When I choose live, it defaults to QVC and looks great but I can't change the channel. Any thoughts on this?

When you say "out of home" local stations are not listed, are you referring to the DVR / remote record function or the actual live streaming channels? If you have local channels streaming then I'm jealous, because they don't show up for me at home.. As a matter of fact- I'm sitting here looking at the app right now (while at home).. And it shows 181 " channels (away from home)".. So even at home it seems to think I'm away..

to be able to use the uverse app you will need a logitech k400 keyboard and scroll up on the featured screen, you will see all channels available .

Because it is using the wifi connection on the FTV it thinks it is on a cellular network and defaults to the out of home config. When you plug in the ethernet cable it doesnt know how to handle it and wont connect at all.

You don't necessarily need this exact keyboard but you do need a keyboard to use the app properly.

Sorry I don't think I was clear enough.. What I'm asking is- are you able to watch local channels (nbc,abc, cbs) on your uverse app? They don't even show up on my epg whether I'm home, away, whatever..

Lucky you.. I'm wondering if that doesn't work for me because I use a secondary router / wifi rather than the piece of crap uverse router.. I still have the uverse router, but my tp-link archer c7 is hooked into it and handles all the wifi duties..
Sideload Uverse
As of 8/31/2015 downloading the At&t uverse app is unnecessary. It's now available directly through the Amazon app store.
Too bad the stream is laggy as all hell
Has anyone been able to install this on the 2nd gen Fire TV that just came out? I couldn't find it in the Amazon app store. Maybe it's not compatible with the new OS?
One thing i noticed is that the firetv app does not have on demand, has anyone maybe found a solution, I'm about to search for other threads
