I'm having issues with my laptop's internet whenever its using the phone's internet. My phone's using the stock apps on CM10.
Every few mins the internet stops as in DNS requests fail, http requests fail, nothing happens for a minute. The connection between my phone and my laptop is always stable during these hiccups and I get this problem whether I use usb tethering or wifi hotspot. The internet on my phone during these hiccups works fine to.
How do I fix this issue?

I went through this process last night Rooting part 1 2 the whole jazz:

Everything appeared to go well. I installed Fresh rom. However now when I setup my Phone for Sprint wifi hotspot everything is perfect, until I actually connect to the wireless connection. I am able to connect, but it keeps trying to identify, seems like it never receives an IP address and as a result although I am connected to Sprint Wifi Hotspot (confirmed on the device) the computer is never able to connect to the internet.
Strangely, the Wireless Tether app (free tethering) works fine. I would use this but it seems like it lag spikes more often than the Sprint app.
Appreciate any advice you might have!!! Really miss my internet! haha
Hi All,
I am trying to share my laptops internet connection with my Defy via a virtual miniport adapter(using a program called connectify)...my phone gets connected perfectly and I am able to surf the net on my phone..but only for a short time. After a while if I just let the phone be on standby for a while, it loses the internet connectivity. It remains connected to the hotspot(on my pc) but somehow there is no internet on the phone anymore. However if I turn off the wifi on my Defy and put it back again, the internet is back. I have tried almost everything but nothing seems to work. Initially i thought the problem might be with the connectify software on my system so tried using other softwares such as virtual router intel mywifi technology etc. I even tried to create a virtual wifi miniport manually from the command line but same problem everytime. I tried to change the wifi sleeo policy in my phone to never and that did not help too. I am running stock Froyo on my Defy. Sometimes when I turn off wifi and turn it back on it wont even connect to the access point, keeps showing scanning...connecting...scanning...connecting...then finally disconnected. I just cant understand what is wrong. If someone can throw some light on this...it would be really helpful, its almost 20 days since I am breaking my head over this.
Thanks
this might help
Install connectify and select wifi security mode as Ad-Hoc,WEP,this worked for me the defy sometimes seems to have a problem with WPA2.
Hi,
I use internet pass through (Using laptops internet thru USB tethering) a lot to download huge size game files or update my apps. However I have noticed one problem with this feature. The internet pass thru works correctly for few minutes and then it stops downloading anything and the download speed also changes to 0bytes.
I then change the connection to charging wait for sometime and then again changing to internet pass thru which makes it work again. This behavior is constant from the day I purchased my phone on launch date.
My laptops firewall is off and the connection appears in my network sharing as unidentified .
Is this a bug or some problem which can be resolved by any changes. I already searched on similar topics and no thread answers to my satisfaction.
Please help me.
Hi,
Since i've had the One X i've had nothing but problems with tethering. I've tried wifi, bluetooth and USB. All seem to suffer from the same problem.
The problem being that the phone will have a working mobile internet connection (I can use the phone to talk to the internet without problem) but my netbook cannot talk to the internet. The problem is definitely not with my netbook or the connectivity between the phone and the netbook as I can ping the phones IP address just fine.
It's almost like when tether is enabled some sort of forwarding or bridging between wifi/bluetooth/usb and mobile internet should be enabled but isn't being.
Then, totally randomly, it will just start working fine.
Sometimes disconnecting mobile internet and reconnecting fixes it. Sometimes enabling airplane mode and then disabling it fixes it. But most of the time I literally have to just wait until the phone decides to start forwarding my packcets to the internet.
I travel by train to/from work and used to tether my HTC Desire using wifi or usb. It would generally be useable for the whole journey except when I lost signal entirely or when the phone switched between Orange and T-Mobile whilst I was in the middle of something.
I guess my main questions are:
Is anyone else having this problem?
Can anyone think of a way I can try to debug what's happening?
Does anyone have a possible solution?
Thanks

Try resetting your APN setting back to default. This should fix the issue. You may have to do this everytime at OTA update is applied.
Having some trouble with this, if the laptop eventually connects to the hotspot, or can see it, it says no internet and then disconnects repeatedly.
Tried on two different laptops and my Nokia, all the same. Laptops connect to my hotspot fine, so it's not a laptop issue anyway.
Anyone else have this issue?
