[Q] CM7 Weird 3G/Wifi issue?

Hi guys. I recently flashed CM7 RC1.5 to my defy. Everything works fine except for one weird issue: if my 3g is on while I turn on wifi, it kills my router (BEFW11S4, old router). If I turn off 3g I can connect to the router without problems. I'm sure that this wouldn't happen with a newer router, but before the upgrade I didn't have this issue (froyo stock).
Is there an app to switch between 3g and wifi? I mean an app that forces 3g off before connecting to wifi?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
my problem is the same but different.
my 3g works fine but when i turn wifi on the connection drop.
it only work again when i turn off the wifi.
any solution?

[Q] Wifi tethering not working

I tried wifi tethering on 2.3.3. Once you activate it you can connect to the wifi hotspot very quickly, but whether you connect a device or not, 3 seconds after activating the wifi hotspot my internet connection switches off. Ones you deactivate the wifi hotspot, internet is back on. I have upgraded the system to 2.3.4, but the problem is still there. I want to buy a wifi tablet so I need to share my mobile internet connection. Has this happened to anyone?

what phone do you have? r800i r800x r800 etc. also what wifi tethering app are you using? is your phone rooted?
My phone is a R800i, bootloaders locked, rooted with zerglingrush. I am using the native app, under wifi settings, but I have used sever apps with the same result. I'd rather use the native app. Thanks for answering by the by.
I am also having tethering issues.....
Stock 2.3.3 doomkernel bootloader unlocked and rooted....
Also upgraded to 2.3.4 doomkernel v08 + wifi zip and still having the same problem....
Another phone and tablet cannot see my wifi connection, my phone can see other wifi connections from the other android phone though.....
Wifi and bluetooth works on it as I can connect to my home wifi connection and bluetooth with the car stereo......
Any ideas what I can try?
Going to try a few different software off the market..... Thanks....

Ah, just tried Open Garden from the market and my wifi tethering is working, now I can put to use my all you can eat data plan with tethering
I am also having the issue,
2.3.4, Doomkernel v8 + wifi zip
could try barnacle wifi tether.
Must have been a kernel issue. I flashed DoomKernel and it is now working flawlessly.

I dont think so. I have doomkernel v11 and i use tethering oft on classes and it works perfectly. maybe he is using any app which is turning data off when he starts any wifi - even tethering? this can be apps which help to extend battery life...

[Q] WiFi Tethering problem, brand new Xperia Play

Guys, I have a brand new Xperia Play, stock ROM, unrooted. When I switch on the wifi tethering it doesn't work.
My 3G data connection otherwise works flawlessly, but as soon as I turn on wifi tethering (or USB tethering) it stops receiving data.
Thus I cannot share my internet connection with my Vita or laptop.
I tried restarting the device, re-installing the 3G access point, nothing helps.
Anyone knows what might be the problem... or should I try to return the device?
(This is quite important for me as I work from home and need an internet connection to my laptop from time to time.)
Well are you SURE that your carriers data plan supports tethering?

100% sure, it worked previously with Sony Xperia P (which I sold already).

[Q] Wifi Tethering Multiple Devices - Limited Connectivty

Does anyone else have problems with wifi tethering? It seems to happen for me with any rom, currently though using JellySlim_FullPower [HSD Project 4].
My problem is I start the wifi tethering from my Xperia S, then on my Windows 7 PC I can connect no problem at all and usually it works fine - The problem then is if I try and connect to the same hotspot with another device at the same (Xperia T / Nexus 7 2013). Within minutes of more than one device been connected to my Xperia S wifi hotspot all the connections drop, then on Windows 7 I get the Limited Connectivity and yellow exclamation mark.
To keep it simple, wifi tethering seems to work when only one device is connected to the hotspot, but it seems having multiple devices connected causes the connection to lose internet.
Has anyone else experienced this, have a solution maybe? I am wondering if there is a setting to allow x amount of connections at once or something
Thanks.

The only thing I can do is connect phone to PC and use USB tethering for internet on PC, then to share with another device also use hotspot.
Again though, any more devices using the same hotspot drops all the connections. I cannot find a resolution.

Have you tryed with kitkat how tethering works?
Two months later and so many many wasted hours, looks like solution found! Luckyly by my self
Go to your pc wlan device properties and change from internet protocol verion propeties ip to automatic.
I hope this helps help someone else.
Strangely two other phone tethers ok even ip wasn´t automatic. Not sure when that setting was change. Or was it.
