Has there been a fix about using WiFi tethering and phone disconnects when it sleeps? This has been a problem since ICS update. I haven't seen a solution, so if one is out there, I would appreciate the feedback.

Go to settings> wireless> wifi settings and press menu button. Open advanced settings , there u ll find Wifi sleep policy. Choose "never"
I had it on "always", changed it per your instructions. Will see if this works. Will change back when using WiFi, at my friends residence.

Doesn't work, still disconnects. It has nothing to do with the Mobile on WiFi, but when using the Mobile as a WiFi modem to use pc to get a broadband connection.

I'm running Calkulins E4GT 2 1.6. I've noticed a behavior where the wifi goes to sleep and on order to reconnect i have to turn it off and then back on to find wifi networks again. Any way to stop or fix this?

It's a known issue. Supposedly this does not happen on FF11 kernel. I will report back tomorrow to confirm.

This seemed to resolve the issue.
Is anyone having a problem connecting to wifi after the l28at ics update? My phone won't pick up the IP address.

No problems with WiFi for me

I can connect to other wifis but the at my house. I do think think it's a router issue cause everything else can connect to it

Hi xda people
I've just update my Xperia S via flashboot and it's got the. 55 ... I mean the last update but the problem is that I cannot use my Mobil data... I try to set it up in Mobil networks setting and I realized that it doesn't have 3G setting it just has GSM and WCDMA... And it doesn't get the connection and use it all the time.... Is important to mention that I haven't rooted my Xperia and stuff it's just updated and I wanna fix it as soon as possible
Thanks everyone

Does anyone know if they have wifi tether what app are u using if so
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Long story short. Wireless tether for root works. BUT it'll kill WiFi. You can only use one or the other per reboot. Unless something has changed.
Edit. On ZVB anyway

WiFi Tether for Root, or Wireless? I have WiFi Tether for Root but it requires a slew of steps to work, I've read.
Haven't gotten it to work with the suggested settings, but haven't bothered spending the time to utilize a workaround.

Each device is different. You should look for support for the device in question rather than something completely different.
Try device profile = generic wlan(0)
Setup method = netmasterd
Reload wireless driver checked

Ever since I update my phone to 5.1.1 the WiFi is keep running on background even though I toggle off the WiFi. I have also switch off the gps and locate my phone using WiFi when not used. This would not go away until I reboot my phone and because of that android system on battery status is mainly draining my battery. Please help me fix this. I have factory reset and clear the cache numerous time.

How is your Smart Network Switch set? Mine is off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using XDA Premium HD app
It is off as well. And it seems like if I have WiFi connected and leave the WiFi zone then even though I toggle off it would still run in background. If I switch off before leaving the WiFi zone then it would be fine.
