Wireless tether being odd? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok I'm extremely confused. I use the tether on 4g and it will load absolutely every single site i want at a really fast speed (about 4mb/s according to speedtest.net) but for some reason it won't load the only 2 i would like to go on which is xda and androidforums. Can someone help me out here. Also does the app not work on vista because i can connect on my laptop (win 7) but my buddy can't connect on his (vista).

Wireless modem

I know tethering you can either pay for or root your phone, but I just bought a laptop and broke the external wireless card, are there any 3rd party apps available so that I can connect my evo to my pc via usb and use my evos wifi too connect my laptop to the internet through my wireless router at home? Any feedback Is appreciated.

I just use the built in usb tethering. It supports connecting to wifi. My school's network is acting up and my laptop wouldn't register properly. Using my Froyo Evo, I just turned on USB tethering while connected to wifi and got great wireless speeds. Best option in my opinion.
Didn't work without pdanet.....pc would recognize phone but not its ability to use it for its wifi connection. Elaborate?

Yeah, I am as well....am not getting any Internet access even though it allows me to join the network. I have Win 7 x64 and have tried with 2 diff computers and 3 diff versions of the wireless tether...7, 8 and 9. It was working at first and then all of a sudden it just stopped allowing me to surf the Net. I started my own thread on this but not much help from all of the knowledgable people on here nor with replies.

YouTube loading slow on wifi

Anyone else's YouTube app load really really slow? I get 25mb down with Comcast and it will only load like 45 seconds of a video, stop and then load some more and then stop again. My One X loaded videos right away, is this just me or is this known?

In every ROM i have tried on all my devices the YouTube kinda sucks. My only fix is not really a fix but it works for me.. I just set the bookmark of the mobile site and give it a cool little widget and act like its the app.. Works like a charm lol.

Feels like YouTube allocates less bandwidth to the app access
I know its old but I have this problem too. Anyone knows the solution?

Well here is the thing only on WiFi is the video load time really slow. While I am on "4G" the video loads fine and quick. I know its not my wireless router because I went out bought a brand new wireless N router from best buy just to test and its not equipment. ( return the router after )
Can anyone confirm that it is the case?

Guys, it isnt your router, your modem or your internet. I had to play youtube videos on my PC at 240 p and still wont load... and i have a great internet connection speed. It doesn't happen all the time but it happens. You're not alone.

Check your DNS server on the router. Use Google's DNS server internet is faster. YouTube is faster on my computer than phone sometimes

Best Tether app (non root)

Hello i have a sprint galaxy s III and i was wondering if anyone has had success tethering a sprint phone to the nexus 7? My phone is not rooted, i would like to keep it that way if at all possible. I use FoxFi and PDA Net and it does connect to my Nexus 7, but for internet only. Google play will not update apps, facebook will not work, Netflix won't work, ect. I tried open garden, FoxFi (by itself), PDA Net (by itself) and nothing else connects. What is everyone else using??? Thanks in advanced!
Well I`m using foxfi and it works very well for me. I`m living in uk.

I tried out foxfi today for the first time. It seems pretty good, but I would like to here others suggestions as well.

That doesn't really answer the OP's post though. FoxFi doesn't look like a real internet connection to all apps though. Is there another app that does any better?

If I understand this right your wanting to connect your N7 to the internet via your G3, if so cannot you just use the mobile access point on the phone, i have the galaxy s and my sister has the S2, both have this options in the settings and once set up and turned on acts just like a wireless router, select it and enter the password on your N7 and your away.. works well on mine

I've never tried it, but how about PDAnet?
Foxfi Wifi Hotspot no longer works on my nonrooted Droid Bionic. I can only tether via blueetooth, which doesn't allow all of my apps to work correctly. Does anyone know of a Foxfi alternative?
My Foxfi works fine on droid x to my nexus 7. I don't know what you're talking about not a real connection....
Check it out though, foxfi is definitely awesome.

[Q] Any way to connect the note 2 to Linux PC

I am using Opensuse 11.4 for work and wondering if it is possible to connect my note 2 to the PC via cable.
I want to transfer file to and from the phone.
I installed the mtp tools but the PC still cannot recognize the phone.
You have to install gMTP do a search on Google for it. You might have to compile from source depending on what distro your running. Works great for me

You could just install the Airdroid app on the phone and transfer files through any browser.
Thats what I do on my Mac for example.
Nice thing about gMTP is that you don't have to worry about slow upload speeds and getting flagged by some savy network admin that watches there local network. Plus it's faster when your transferring large files etc.

Thanks for the reply, guys. I'll try gmtp. I have airandroid but it is too slow sometimes.
