Rootbox Wifi Compatibility - Sprint LG Optimus G

Just installed Rootbox, went to join my wireless N network and the router didn't show up. Was able to connect with Lifeless ROM and stock. My wireless G router appeared and connected fine. Differences between the router are one is G other is N, channel width on the N router is 40. Anyone have any ideas on why this ROM can't see this router?

it has something to do with the driver file. Did this get changed in development of this ROM?

I'm running Rootbox also. I was able to connect up to my Netgear n300

My channel width is set to 40mhz, on your netgear are you set , 20, 40, or 20/40?

It's running at 20.

That's why... O well, just thought it was weird every other ROM works but this.

On some ROMS I've noticed the same behavior, but not on all ROMS. If you are using a custom rom, check by backing up everything and flashing a stock ROM. I'm using unNamed and it shows both networks and can connect to both. Some might say this is a kernel or modem issue, but I've switched ROMS while using the same kernel/modem and the behavior changed.

[Q] Wifi issue after update

Noob here, after sprint update to my note 2, I cannot connect to my router when it is set to N only. If it is set to G and N, it connects, but at 54 g speed. Phone states wrong password, and I know its correct. Any thoughts? and Thanks
I would try different methods of security first. Sometimes a phone or rom can act buggy with one method and not another.

Try resetting the router and see if that helps

reset all
Reset router, restored original settings of router and tried long passphrase and a short one. Tried updating firmware of router, none available. Still will only connect to G, but when I set router to N only, it will not connect. States wrong password. I have a 100mbps service so i would like to take advantage of it.
did you flash perseus kernel by chance? I have been running the stock lk8 rom and kernel for 2 days...flashed perseus shortly after reading your post and I can now no l lo nger connect to "n"

I think I know what the issue is...hold please
edit 2....well...in my case it was just a router issue. restarted modem and router and all works

I am able to connect to my 5ghz N only network. Although it takes sometime for the phone to actually find it... That I'm not sure when especially when I am like 10 feet away from the router.
They resetting router and maybe change to encryption to aes only.

CleanRom 3.5 and wifi issue

Anyone else with this rom had any issues with reconnection to wifi after restart? When i restart my phone, the wifi is turned on, but it doesn't connect till i go in and tell it to connect to my home wifi. It shows that its still a saved connection too. I experimented a little and noticed its only on the 5g band and that the 2.4g band seems to work fine.

It has been mentioned multiple times: there is a known issue with 4.2.1 based ROMs reconnecting automatically to 5Ghz bands. All of them.

Do you mean 4.1.2? Because this isn't 4.2.1.
For the OP - I haven't had any issues connecting to the WiFi on CleanRom 3.5. Just did a reboot for the heck of it and it obtained an IP right away and worked flawlessly.

are you using a 5g wifi band or 2.4g?
I have the same issue on all 4.1.2 roms I've tried including stock and clean rom.
What router are you using? I have an Asus rt-n66u with custom firmware.

Static ip won't help, yes you can connect to wifi, but cannot get connection to internet. This is a bug of android, and ITs in Princeton univ. had some investigation. It's due to renew and release of address. 4.2 should have fixed it

[Q] Will I Get Charged From (Wifi Tether)?

I just Rooted my Brand New LG Optimus G.
I also just installed the (Wifi Tether) app from the Play Store. I was wondering if I would be charged for using this application to tether.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Oh! I was also wondering if there were any custom ROMS available for the LG Optimus G. (Sprint)
If (Wifi Tether) won't work. What will work to not get charged?
If (Wifi Tether) works, are there certain settings I should put in? If so, what are they?
No, you will not be charged by Sprint for using the Wifi Tether app.
There are no Custom ROMS at this moment but the devs are currently working on making some in the near future
Generic ICS/JB wlan0 ...settings in WiFi tether that'll work.

Does that actually work? I had tried that the other day and even if I am able to get the connection to show is running, I can't get any device to see the signal. Once I was able to get my laptop to see the connection but when I tried connecting it went nowhere.
I get a Bluetooth hot spot without any root. Works great. Foxfi works fine.

Yes, it does work. I am using Wifi Tether (the one with the yellow icon) and have no problem connecting tablet or laptop to my phone, data works as well. Check the setting and make sure you are broadcasting the ssid

Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard very laggy on Note 2 with wifi on

Recntly got myself an Amkette smartboard bluetooth keyboard and an Amkette pearl bluetooth mouse since I primarily use my Note 2 as my work phone, with my laptop getting a step motherly treatment.
Now the issue is that after turning on wifi, the bluetooth keyboard and mouse becomes laggy and sometimes stop responding. Turning off the wifi on the phone solves the problem.
I'm currently using a Belkin N150 ADSL modem router.
I've changed the wifi channel to 801.11n, but the issue doesn't get solved.
Is there a way to solve this problem?

Sometimes when I transfsr data with bluetooth and downloading a file over wifi I get problems that make me have to use each separately.
My laptop too does the same

I also expierenced issues. Changed the router frequency to 1 If I recall, and that was that.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using XDA Premium HD app
Changing the channel to 11 seems to solve some of the problem. When I changed my channel to 1,my router refuses to connect to Internet.
