So just rooted, and downloaded the wireless tether. But for some reason I can't get the ipad to get full ip connection. It connects, just not completely. Anyone else have this issue before?

Guess android and apple don't like messing with each other, lol (just had to put that in)...
But down to your question, have you try connecting a different device to see if you can connect? With your wireless tether on try connecting, like a laptop or other wireless device to see if you can connect. This will give you a better idea Of what's going on.
Did you change any settings for wireless tether?

I had the same issue with my iPod touch. I rooted and tried tethering on the stock rom and had the problem you had. I'm not sure if it was after I flashed a new kernel or a kernel and Fresh 3.2, but the next time I tried it, it worked perfectly. Maybe think about trying a new rom? Not sure of the actual problem.

I've never been able to connect a mobile phone via tether. Never tried an iPad though.

I am running Fresh 3.3.0.1 and my friends Ipad connects to it and works fine. I am using version 2.0.5-pre9 of wireless tether.
i know version 8 wont work with my apple stuff. version 7 works with ipad iphone i know. apparelntly so does 9
I'm running the Fresh 3.3 ROM with wireless-tether 2.0.5-pre9 and it works fine with my iPad.
I had a similar problem when I got Wireless Tether. It wouldn't fully connect to anything (win 7, ubuntu, droid 2.1, iphone or macbook) although the devices said they were at least partially connected (except the droid never could see it). Turns out the Wireless Tether app in the marketplace is old/doesn't work for the EVO/Froyo - or something.
Go here: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
And download the latest version (pre9 at the top - after you've uninstalled the old version) and it should work. At least it did for me.
Im running Fresh 3.3.0.1 and the last Wifi Tether that I've downloaded and reinstalled I don't know how many times.
At some point the iPad was working great but all of the sudden it just stopped working.
My blackberry connects to the EVO without a problem.
The ipad connects and disconnects or it just spins while trying to connect even tho the phone says its connected.
Any ideas or any other wifi tethering apps suggestions?
Thanks.
I just rooted my stock EVO running Froyo, and installed wireless-tether 2.0.5-pre9. Although it seems to run fine, and my iPad connects, it can't connect to the Internet. Seems to be a common problem, as there are several people complaining.

Hmm...
I asked my buddy with an iPhone 4 to try and connect the other day and it worked just fine.
Granted, iPhone and iPad are not the same thing, so take that for what it is. Just saying.
I have an iPad and I run CM6+Snap and if you use CM6 DO NOT use Wireless Tether, use it's built in hotspot ability. If you use fresh. I never had a problem using the included version of Wifi Tether.
On stock rooted. Hard to say. I only very briefly use stock rom's. I would guess fresh/etc. make other adjustments to fine tune but not sure.
I do know there is nothing hardware-related that prevent an ipad from seeing android tethering.
One tip I've read about, try using Channel 1.
It does seem to be the best for maintaining connection when experiencing repeated drops.
I've connected to my 2 grandkids' Touchs (or is that touches .. lmao) but best results on ch.1
cheers
i have rooted my phone earlier today using unrevoked 3 and i have install the new version of wireless tether - pre 10 and although it shows my htc evos connection as local or limited connection on my computer, i have yet to gain internet access. it shows limited connectivity and doesnt allow me to go online. i am confused and give up.
yes must agree about channel 1 on on wifi tether. I have iPad ios4.2 beta 2 running on my hook to my evo using standard stock rom 2.2 rooted. Using pre8 edition wifi tether, sometimes starting connection would not connect right away. I suggest toggle wifi-tether on and off about 2 times and give the iPad time to connect, one more thing could try on iPad is utilize forget this network if applicable and see if that helps! Hope all works out okay for you.

Is your pc setup for DHCP?
oh boy, this issue again huh??
i almost returned my evo cuz my ipod touch 3gs wouldnt connect to it. sometimes it saw the connection sometimes it didnt...also it varied whether i had a passcode or not. i just gave up.
also, no phones can connect to it but my computer/laptop can. WEIRD!! i always maintained the latest wireless tether. once i root my phone again ill try this. but i will not get my hopes up.
also,
it sucks so bad that i have stopped using the ipod due to no internet and have gotten in deep with the g/f since she bought it for me...lol

This suggestion seems to have done the trick (toggling). I tried to connect using my old HTC Fuze and had no luck with that either. So I guess that puts doubt that the issue is client side.
I then turned WT off and back on. Lo and behold my Fuze was able to surf. Did the same with my WiFi only iPad.
I'm using the Pre9 version on my HTC stock 2.2 (rooted).
I couldnt get my evo to wifi to my ipad until I install wireless-tether 2.0.5-pre7.
Tried pre11,pre9 and it wouldnt work. As soon as I launched this the ipad connected right away.
Ok.. please excuse the ignorance about anything tethering lol... but can I connect my rooted evo to the Tmobile Samsung Galaxy tab?... and, obviously access theyre hspa+ network?
Thank you.
I'm getting really frustrated now. This problem is a real nuisance for me, as I use my Desire a lot solely for this purpose.
In my room, the wifi signal has always been pretty weak, generally only getting 1/2 bars. However, the connection is stable and still about 6mbps. This is never usually a problem for my Desire, it picks up the connection and everything works great. Stock Froyo, Sense Froyo, Sense Gingerbread, Sense V2 Gingerbread, Miui Froyo and Miui Gingerbread all operate flawlessly.
However, I now have a bit of a problem. It seems most Gingerbread AOSP ROM's cause the wifi to play up. I have tried GingerVillain, Oxygen, Redux and finally now my favourite CM7. The wifi constantly drops out and loses connection, and then takes a good 30+ seconds to reconnect. The dropouts can be as frequent as every few minutes, and generally it never lasts 4+ minutes in iplayer without losing connection. If I am just casually browsing, I don't notice. But when I am watching something on youtube or iplayer, the constant dropouts make the experience so horrible it isn't worth the effort.
What's more, there is some odd bug with the iplayer app where once a dropout happens, the audio and video goes out of sync and so on etc. All in all, it makes streaming video unusable, and this was a main reason for me buying a smartphone.
I really don't know what the problem is, but I really would appreciate some help. I would say it was a gingerbread problem, but as stated above, there are many gingerbread roms which don't cause me the same issue. Similarly, I've used an array of different radio's and kernals on each ROM. They make no difference. It depends purely on which ROM I am using. I've tried resetting the bt home hub, restoring it to factory, changing security type, moving it's position and so on. I'm pretty sure it's a ROM / Phone issue though as it works fine with other ROMS. Phone wise, I've set wifi policy to never and set a static IP address. It makes no difference. I still get wifi dropouts!
For reference sake, I'm using the latest stock Radio - 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 and Kernal 2.6.37.4-cyanogenmod-82245..... and obviously CM7 7.0.2.
Please someone help? I'm actually considering upgrading just to solve this. It is absolutely doing my nut in, and I am totally out of ideas or solutions.
Thanks.
Maby a weird thing but on what channel is your wifi broadcasting ?
I had almost the same problem when my wifi was on channel 12. Now on channel 3 there is no more problem.
Not that any other wifi's broadcasting here. It is just that I've got the feeling that android has a problem with "high" channels.

It was on 10 and 11.
I'll switch to 3 and give it a try. Also, I'm going to try flashing the Gingerbread Sense Drivers and RIL.
Hi,
I've also had a similar problem for quite a while now (1-2 weeks). I used my wireless connection on my standard out of factory ROM on my home wifi network, my families wifi networks and my work wifi networks without _any_ problems.
When this problem started acting up I'd start my wifi connection, it would work for like a minute or so (not dependant on the amount of data transmitted or something, idle would last as long as while downloading), and then lose connection.
The strange thing is that it indicates it is fully connected at full strength but can not establish _any_ internet connection whatsoever.
My 3G connection to my network (I live in the Netherlands) works nicely, but it isn't as fast as wifi, so this limits me quite a bit (especially at work, indoors).
I've just tried to upgrade to CM7, but doesn't give any better results. I haven't tried upgrading my RADIO, but I don't really want to if I don't have to.
Any clues what I could do to fix this?
I'm experiencing similar problems.I changed from channel 11 to 4, but it really hasn't helped. I have also set up a portable wifi (netcomm). It runs on channel 3. The network sim is quite slow but the signal strength is much steadier. My faster speedstream completely drops out. I understand this "pulsing" of signal is normal, but mine is beyond the pale.
My acer netbook doesn't demonstrate any dropout issues.
Im running an A501 3.0.1. No upgrade yet for me here in australia. But, I'm wondering if this is just poor hardware.
could try a different Radio.. the latest stock one from the new official gingerbread is in my signature..
MD5: 432ED609D76AE57BA493DA875CDC9D2D
further to my difficulty with wifi drop outs, I'm pleased to say that it appears that my problems probably are related to my home wifi, a Speedstream.
I'm currently spending a week on a houseboat and I've been using a netcomm myzone wifi fitted with a sim card from a prepaid Dodo broadband usb.
I've not had any problem with it. Granted, I've had it close by, but it still seems to work fine when I'm at the other end of the houseboat.
So my acer A501 seems to be behaving itself here. Perhaps, something is causing the speedstream to vary it's signal strength so drastically.
@OP - I posted a thread a few weeks ago about having exactly the same problems as you with AOSP ROM's and weak wifi signals. Once I went to a Sense ROM the wifi signal was great. I prefer the AOSP ROM's so I upgraded my Radio to the latest version but it didn't help at all, I didn't see any change when using wi-fi analyser.
I'm currently using CM7 ROM and just putting up with the weak signal. I'm glad it's not just me though.
I used Teamviewer on my HTC Desire without any problems but I can't get it to load on the S2. Anyone had any luck with this?
http://www.teamviewer.com
no problem with this app, works good but sometimes i have to disconnect and reconnect because the desktop is not shown
Working fine for me. I use it on 3g and wifi with no probs. at all.
I have tryed it on Villian 1.1 Rom, and Lightning Rom 1.3
Thanks for the replies, but now I'm at a loss as to why I can't run it on my S2... I just get a black screen and nothing happens...
i also have it working on my SGSII with villainRom 1.2 with no problems(may be a bit slow but could be i need to practice more xD) via wi-fi...i havent try it via 3G, could that be your problem?
No problem for me either. just used it few minutes ago while eating outside. everything was okay on wifi and 3g as well.
It's working alright... Download it from the Market
Navigate to settings. Place a check mark against Remove wallpaper and set the Quality to Optimized Speed
Working On my SGS 2 Superbly Fine!
working with no problem, Official ROM KE7, rooted...
Is there something wrong with my phone then?
When I run it, it just hangs at a black screen and then it force closes.
Anyone got any idea what could be causing this? I'm really missing teamviewer!
Perfect on Litening 1.4
Been doing some digging and it seems that I am not the only one having this problem, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=851423
But I can't anything in common for the people that it doesn't work for... I'm going to find a tightVNC client for the time being. Real shame because I've been using teamviewer on about 20 desktops till now
no problem on cognition s2.

What ROM r u using, Its working fine on my Device..
Running stock KE7 rooted using CF-Root v4.0
Im having problems with it as well... villainRom 1.0
It works with 3G connection but stuck on "Connecting to server - please wait" when I try to work via wifi.
Might be that I am trying to work via my company wifi. Should make no difference as it works from wifi laptop to the PC.
Might be I missed some configuration?
Works great for me. Just on the stock setup.
Working fine while i checked through wifi. But i couldnt do any mouse clicks, dont know why.
its working without problems on me.
tested with stock rom,lightining 1.4/1.5, cognition 1.7/1.8 all without problem on 3G and wifi.
Installed bulk standard from teamviewer site on Galaxy S2. No problems. Works like dream. How functional/uesful it is is another matetr on such a small screen !
But it works.
Hi guys,
I've searched the whole forum but I couldn't find any other thread about my problem.
When I connect my HOX to WiIF (Sitecom WL-370 - 300N Gigabit Dualband Router) everything works fine at first, but after a few minutes (5, or sometimes 15 minutes) I've got no Internet anymore but I'm still connected. Also WiFI Analyzer still detects the network. I've this problem both on 2.4 GHz as on 5 GHz. I've also tried switching channels.
The strange thing is, I can still receive a WhatsApp message but I can't send any, also I can't browse on the Internet or things like that.
After turning my WiFi off and on it works fine again for the few minutes..
Best Wi-Fi performance is turned on and the other devices at home haven't got this problem.
Anyone having the same problem or knows a solution?
I've got the same problem and it seems to be totally random. What i noticed is that my Google Play Store always stops working (no connection) shortly after i turned on the phone (~10 minutes). Switching Wifi off and on again doesn't seem to change it, i need to restart my HOX to get it working again while other apps connect just fine after turning Wifi off and on again.
Edit: Stock Vodafone ROM (1.28.161.9)
I have the exact same issue and i went through every setting in my router trying to fix this.
I would turn on my WIFI, connect to my home network, and start downloading. After a few minutes it'll either stop (the dl percentage not change) and then if i reload the market/youtube/browser or any app that users the net, it'll say no connection.
The weird thing about this is that it LOOKS like i am connected to wifi (in the notification bar).
This may be a separate issue, but i tried to turn it off and then on again to get around the issue. This time around i would try to connect to my home wifi and it'll just say 'Saved' and then the network would go out of range.
I am running Leedroids rom.
I might have found a solution:
Under Settings -> Wifi -> Menu -> Extended there is an option for Wifi Power Saving. After unchecking it all my connectivity problems are gone.
May be worth trying a static IP configuration, if you know enough about ip4 to do it. I've seen problems with android Wi-Fi since version 2.2 - if your router issues an indefinite dhcp lease, it can show exactly the symptoms you describe. Only a possibility but worth a try.

I have the exact same issue - the wireless shows connected yet you cannot browse the Internet etc. I have also tried every setting on the Wireless AP without any success. Even tried static IP and that does not fix it either. Whilst other devices in the house are ok...
The weirdest thing is though it does not happen everywhere i.e. at other places like work (where at least the same type of AP is in use) or at my brothers' house (where he has a Linksys). This is pretty much the only thing that bugs me with the HTC - the only workaround I have found is to make sure that WiFi is kept on only at times when plugged in - this doesn't actually fix the issue but it does mean that the phone will disconnect the WiFi and get a new connection next time it wakes up - this way I find I get the problem much less than when I have it set to Always.

Yeah, exactly, I've got the same problem. At school I've got no problems with the WiFi. I already send a message to HTC and I'm waiting on there answer.
I have kinda the same issue.
Using a HOX and at work I'm connected to Wifi and I can browse. At my house I can connect to the wifi, my IP is right that I'm getting from DHCP (I even tried putting in a static IP) but I can't browse
I also have a HTC Sensation, same setup and it works. The sensation can browse at work and at my house.
Why would this be?
Tried all sorts of solutions, but the only one that works is disabling the N-band and only leave B and G. This means that your laptop won't connect with the faster N, but at least the HOX works (what's more important )
Well I tried broadcasting a separate SSID on the b/g interface only for the exclusive use for the hox but that hasn't made any difference...my workaround is to have tunein radio in the background streaming whilst surfing...if I get bored of that solution my next workaround will be to trade the hox for an s3 as much as I despise TW...

I tried all the bands "B, G, N" and nothing works. So tired of this crap. Think I might just get a S3

I was thinking to do the same but there is no chance in hell of me doing that after I compared my HOX with a display model at the phone shop. Pentile screen vs LCD on the HOX? HOX = Sharper and better whites - the white on the S3 is bluish and so obvious. Another thing also I noticed is that the aggressive auto brightness on the S3 is too much - you won't tolerate it and you will likely be forced to manually adjust all the time. That plus reading that the S3 goes through the battery like no mans business when on standby unless you turn off all the features and put it in power save mode (might as well buy a Nokia then) at least the HOX uses the Ninja core and actually does save your battery in standby mode.
Anyway - the reason I replied is that I found a workaround (note, workaround does not mean a fix) - I put in a wifi extender in an area where I tend to spent most of my time with the HOX - this has not fixed the problem per se but rather seems to have elevated it somewhat. Basically now if the HOX drops from the main offending AP it automatically gets hooked up on to the extender and carries on working! I say this because (and I saw this only twice so far) I realised that when the phones Internet connection stops and you load a new page it timed out and get page cannot be found but when I hit refresh it works again you do notice a 3-4 second lag (this never happened before the extender came into play). Not sure if anyone else has tried this but I got a Linksys/Cisco extender for £69 and so far at least it has given me a workaround. Of course your mileage may vary...so don't splash out on an extender and come and blame me if it doesn't work for anyone here...
I am also having this issue with my HOX has anyone found a fix for this?
i have tried everything listed and nothing works.
its weird though because i have NO issues on my home network, but my network in my apartment here and at work network i get this issue
!!
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbuuuuuummp any fixes??? this sucks !!!!
What versions of android you guys have? Stock, sense, vanilla android, ics, jelly bean? Because I didn't encounter this problem when running stock or ics custom roms. After I updated hboot to 1.31 and tried different jelly bean sense roms it appeared. I also tried some stock android roms (ice cold jelly and liquid smooth) and wifi seemed to work fine. So is this sense problem only?

Hello, i know this has been discussed here before, but i wanted to ask for help anyway. My Wifi was working perfectly fine on Android 4.1, but after this update to 4.2.2 its really bad.
I know its software issue, pressing right top corner of my HOX doesnt help at all. I tried factory reset, but it didnt help. I´m running official ROM and no root. The problem is that sometimes when i have full signal strenght, the wifi speed is still horrible (like 0.5mb on 10mb wifi).
Any suggestions what to try? Thanks a lot

I have exactly the same problem. All HTC customer service suggested was factory reset, tried that and no difference. On 4.1 it worked fine on my wifi at home throughout the house, now on 4.2, works ok downstairs but useless upstairs even when it says I have 4 bars of signal. Very one times flaky though and sometimes drops to 1 or none. This is a disaster as I understand there is no way to roll back to 4.1. This is unbelievable!! How can an official update totally break basic functionality with no way back!? Searched all over Internet to find a solution and no luck, even though a fair few people seem ro have this problem. Is not a hardware problem, as OP, squeezing top right makes no difference. Have tried static IP, doesn't help. Desperate for help, can any wise heads on here suggest anything? Thanks!
So wish I had not updated, it worked brilliantly before.
Same situation here after the update... With full signal keep having horrible Wifi speed... :'(

Yeah, I really dont want to root my phone too, because i have warranty for more than 1 year now and I will sell the phone in future, so I dont wanna risk loosing warranty..

Hello to all
I have the same wi-fi problem on my HTC One X since I made the update.
Is there any way to solve this?I hope so, because Wi-Fi signal is very bad, and I use it a lot of time.
I have CWM recovery installed,bootloader unlocked, and s-on, recently I have rooted my phone,
but at this moment is not.
I dont care installing new kernel, radio,etc........I just want to solve this problem :crying:
Tanks to all
I have a problem with my wifi too since the Andriod 4.2.2 and Sense 5 update, but it seems to be a bit different from yours. The speedtest.net app and the ping & DNS app give the same results as my PC that is hard wired to the router, so speed and ping seem to be fine.
But I get errors like Connection Problem Authentication via the proxy server was unsuccessful - but I don't use a proxy server. In the HOX wifi settings for that router the Proxy settings are Manual, Proxy hostname 127.0.0.1 and proxy port 3128. Are these correct for when there is no proxy? If switch from Manual to None and go back in then it has gone back to those settings.
Another error is Connection Problem this page contains too many server redirects. But the page displays fine if I switch to mobile data.
Or I get Connection Problem there was a network error. Again it works fine on mobile data.
Then there are some webpages that give a 404 page cannot be found error. Again it works fine on mobile data.
Some of these problems are repeatable on the same webpages across different routers in different buildings.
Sometimes when connecting to a router the HOX connects and the loses the connection and then reconnects up to 10 times before settling on the connection.
Like you I would rather not root etc if possible.
So, noone know a solution for users without root? I found out that on some wifi (in school), it works quite fine even on worse signal. But before update, it was ok on every wifi..
Hi
i have the same problem with my wlan connection. Nearly 100kb/s.
I had tested my internet download speed on my computer and takes interesting information:
my internet connection is 70MBit, this means i can download with nearly 8,2 MB/s.
If my HOX is not connected to the router, the whole downloadspeed is available on the computer. But if the HOX is connected, the downloadspeed is only 1 MB/s.
After disconnecting and rebooting the router, the internet connection is as well as before.
Does anyone makes the experiences?
regards
Daniel
I don't have the speed problems, Speedtest.net app gives the same results on my HOX as my PC.
One of my wifi problems is to do with the Wi-fi connecting to a weak signal instead of the stronger one - I have worked around this by installing WiFi Fixer App which works well at switching to the stronger signal.
Also there are some websites that give errors like Server Error too Many Redirects (for example http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ does that for me) or 404 Error - Page Cannot be Found (http://fahrbot.co.uk/) or are sometimes slow to load - I have found that these issues don't happen with the Opera Mini app, so why does the stock browser give these problems when on wifi, but not on mobile data?
Another one is that if I click a link in a webpage (or type in a URL) that takes me to a webpage that has a mobile version as well as the desktop version I get a strange URL that doesn't work. For example on mobile data typing in www.abmobileapps.com takes me to the mobile version of the website, but on wifi the URL automatically changes to http://www.abmobileapps.comhttp/www.abmobileapps.com/ and the page cannot be found. Again it works in mini Opera on wifi.
WIFI FIX
if you use rooted device, use lyapota mods and flash modpack http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2114584 (contin wififix and other).
for me works great :highfive: (my router has openwrt)
I found out that on some other wifis speed works just fine. I have router D-Link DIR-600 with stronger antenna than it was stock. I use WPA2 security and Dynamic IP.
Is there anything what I should try to fix it? Thanks for any suggestions.
Here are some advices how to fix the WiFi issues - router dependent (need access to the router setup):
1. Make sure that you are not using channel 11-13
2. Disable "WMM Support" in router Wireless -> Advanced Settings. Note: this will force G-only speed (54Mb)
3. You you want to keep the N speed, put your phone in the highest possible QoS priority without disabling the "WMM Support"
Hope this helps

So, we will change WMM settings for all wifi modems that we connect...
Shame on you HTC...Next time I will ignore HTC while buying a new mobile phone...
after flashing lyopotas mod pack my hox'S wifi seems to work again like it's supposed
maybe it helps
After update,
i can't use my home wifi (Innacomm),using other wifi okay.
conneted but can't surf internet (error 404) but can only use opera mini (very very very slow).
Using other device no problem with the wifi..anyone can help me? TQ :crying:
The problems I am having with proxy and 404 errors are all caused by the Web Protection feature in Kaspersky Internet Security for Android since the OTA to Android 4.2.2 (it worked fine previously). I have installed the latest KIS 11.1.4.141 from the Kaspersky website (because Google Play says it is up to date at version 11.1.3) but the problem still occurs. So I have turned off Web Protection in KIS and all my issues have been cleared up.
