[Q] Please help Re: tethering and LAN connection

Hello everyone! First time poster here.
I've been looking for solutions all over and i can't seem to find one...
Internet at home is down and I'm tethering on my phone (tilt2 energy rom w/ att). Tethering works fine but i have to disconnect from the LAN to make it work.
Tethering internet creates another connection independent from the LAN.
I am using windows 7 and i'm wondering if there's any way i can tether internet on my phone and be connected to the LAN at home?

You could tether via Wifi or Bluetooth instead of USB.

ad-hoc support

Hi guys,
As the title suggest , is there an ad-hoc support for the gn?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

any answer????

Openen Hotspot with Connectify
-Nokia E51 connects (with and without encryption)
-Samsung Galaxy Nexus doesn't even show the hotspot.
adding the network manually is not working either

i tired every app and method available with no luck
i think the solution is to add ad-hoc support

I think the default wpa-supplicant doesn't support adhoc. We need to replace it with one that supports. I don't know if someone has made/fixed it yet. Still waiting for it as well.

Ad.Hoc
did you manage to connect through Ad.Hoc? I cannot find Adhoc in my Galaxy Note!! Can we enable AdHoc on Note?

Also need to use adhoc but my Nexus doesn't detect any...

i will try tonight,as i has my laptop at my GF's house.and wont be there until tonight .
but yha. if nobody has posted til than.
than be sure to watch out for my post
Btw,did any one of you guys try wifi direct?
im kinda unsure what it really does.

Did some search in Google and previous NEXUS had the same problem some users were telling to change wpa_supplicant in /system/bin but I think the one they where providing its not compatible with SGN.

As someone already said, I am not even able to see the an adhoc wifi network with my Galaxy Nexus.
My device is rooted but so far I did not find an easy solution to enable adhoc wifi.
However the same adhoc network works perfectly with an EEEpad transformer, so apparently the wifi client is already modified in the Asus tablet.

Has there been any update to this? Been searching this site and others and it doesn't seem like a wpa-supplicant file that can see Ad-hoc networks has been created yet.

I use Connectify - works pefectly.

Supposedly the 4.0.2 update should bring ad-hoc support.
I'm eagerly awaiting the roll-out... (Should have happened ages ago, but somehow it's taking quite a while to propagate everywhere.)
I suppose you could always go ahead and flash your own ROM, but personally I prefer to wait for the official OTA update.

I'm using a 4.0.3 ROM and before that had stock 4.0.2 and no ad hoc support was/is available. There is Wifi Direct which acts like ad hoc but that only works with other Wifi Direct devices.

Oh, Bother!
I was betting on 4.0.2 to solve this, but as you say, it appears that it's only the wifi-direct that frequently gets billed as 'ad-hoc-like' connection.
Is there any other way to enable ad-hoc connections?
Apparently on other devices there exist modified wpa_supplicant files that enable ad-hoc, but so far I haven't seen anything for the GN.

Unfortunately I'm running XP (yeah I know ) here at the office so Connectify won't work - no access point connections on XP.

any possible solution?

Use bluetooth to connect to your computer and share your internet connection with your phone.
I've tried it on windows xp.

Unfortunately no bluetooth on my laptop either...double yeah I know ;-) It really is a POS!

I found the application Wifi Ad Hoc Enabler on the market, it require Root and it works grate for me, now i can see and connect to any ad hoc connection.

[Q] [Request] [Mod] wpa_supplicant ad-hoc

Hello guys,
i asked this questions before with no luck, i did my research this time, and brought an example from Galaxy s2 forums. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1252619
this mod enable us to connect to wireless networks, created on laptop so we use that laptop internet connection, as my wireless router is far away and its hard for me to connect to it.

Hmm strangely enough this is what i need too. I'm celebrating christmas at my mother in law's, and they only have one computer which have wired internet.

Yeah I've been hoping for this as well. I had CM on my OG Droid just to get ad-hoc working on it. Where I work is a cell black hole for all services and if I want my battery to last for more than a few hours I either have to disable data or connect to the ad-hoc connection I have set up.

Still nothing?
This would be great - if it was possible.

It can be solved If you have bluetooth on the computer you want to share the net with.

would love to have this too! ^^
many many thanks!

much needed! bump!

Any more info on this? I think its very strange that the phone doesn't support ad-hoc out of the box and I'd love to be able to connect to ad-hoc networks
Also I heard that it's going to be added in a feature ICS update?

[Q] No Wlan after ROM

Greetings everybody
Because i'am new here i can not post in the android developement section but maybe you guys can help me.
My problem is that after i installed the [ROM]Hashcheck-Hybrid-v1[P600][BUCND1 4.4.2]FAST on my Note 2014 my WLAN doesn't work anymore.
It is a litte bit odd that i can access to my WLAN if i use my mobile phone as a personal hotspot in my house. This is the only way i can get my tablet to connect with the WLAN. By tablet itself cannot find my WLAN.
I tried to restart my router but that dosen't help me.
Do you have any suggestions what i can do?
Friendly greets

Thanks for your answer, but I tried and don't work again. Something more?

More ideas people?

Hi I'm curious why you want an adhoc, what's the objective?
I'm guessing is it media server?

Hello, I want support for Wi-Fi AD-HOC networks because on my house I don't have a local internet connection using a cable for use one wifi router, so the only way to have wifi on my house is repeating one Wi-Fi connection on my old windows XP desktop PC, it's a Pentium 3 so I can't install windows 7 for create a real virtual Access point, I just can create a AD-HOC access point with windows XP.

You want to share your data plan (phone 3g Internet) with Windows xp, then use your phone in wifi AP or USB teter.
On winXP you have to share this connection to your Lan port or your adhoc connections.
Is this right

No, you not understand me.
I'm repeating right now my neighbor Wi-Fi connection with my old PC with windows XP, the problem is that I CAN'T FIND the Wi-Fi connection that I'm repeating with my android cellphone because using Windows XP i only can create AD-HOC hostpots, not normal Access Point like on windows 7, the problem is that I found on the web some wpa_supplicant edited files but doesn't works for me on my s4 mini, when I put on the folder and I try to enable the wifi, don't turn on and I'm forced to return back to my original wpa_supplicant.
I only need be able to see and connect to AD-HOC networks with my s4 mini, don't care about my windows XP PC because the problem is not there and I can't upgrade that old PC to windows 7 too, that's impossible for the hardware.

Oohhh I see your issue, Android does not support ad-hoc, sorry my bad I tough it does
I have w8 in my office and I share Internet to my phone using a USB card I thought I had an adhoc but I think it's not ad-hoc like winXP, netsh start hostednetwork
The solution I think is to use a wifi router connected to the Lan, they are usually cheap, buy a router capable of repeat that signal
Have you tried with Linux there are distros for slow/old machines

Your connection is not AD-HOC, it's infrastructure mode that mean its like a normal Access Point, I can't use a router because I don't have lan cable I just use one Wi-Fi card to connect to my neighbor Wi-Fi and another to repeat the signal using connectify to create the AD-HOC network, in this case I can't use a router, I was thinking on that use a Linux for create a fake AP, it's my last option, but I still thinking about use the AD-HOC network on the s4 mini, is possible because I have a modified wpa_supplicant on my Ainol tablet and I'm able to connect to the AD-HOC network like another normal wifi, and using a app called Wi-Fi manager on my s4 mini I can find the AD-HOC network and try to connect but, nothing happens, I think it's fault of a stupid stuff and maybe someone can have the answer, so, my question still open!
If someone knows how I can connect to the AD-HOC network, please let me know!
Thanks for try to help me fburgos
