Ok first thing first, before you try portable hotspot was your grand connected already to the internet? If so how were you connected? I ask this because there are some Internet Providers that do not allow wifi tethering. I hope they allow it on yours.

I mean scan ad-hoc network hotspots
Like laptop or portable wifi hotspot in phones . If you try to scan or connect to them, the phone doesnt show them
It just scan for infrastructure access points.(like wifi modems or routers)

First of all I have a Galaxy s2 t989 with tmobile service.
I am on stock jellybean 4.1.2 and rooted.
Please show me how to fix wifi tether. I downloaded the app wifi tether for root users and its not working. Thank you!
When you say not working, you mean you cant connect other devices while tethering is on?

Hey guys, i got a question about the Wifi tethering on the Xperia S.
is it possible to show the connected devices via an app or with the system himself, when i have Wifi tethering on? i don't want to look everytime in the dnsmasq.leases file or what it calls.
Just password protect it with wpa2 and you should be more then secure

Good question.
WiFi is seen as off when WiFi tethering is enabled, so applications like Fing and WiFi Analyzer just see the WiFi interface as down.
You have to have 'conventional' WiFi disabled and WiFi thethering enabled, so this would only be a short term config under a controlled environment in most cases.
It's true WPA2 and a password does provide good basic security, but....
I have an old XPERIA X10i with a 64GB mircroSD card which could make a short to long term mobile NAS and in such an environment where many people are using your hotspot "NAS" for documents, music and/or videos access/streaming, knowing if someone is using it before disabling the service may be helpful.
So, I too, would be interested if there is an app that sees the tethered interface and the network connections using it.
I have done little reaserch and came up with this.

try it

Interesting. How did you enable and view the tethered interface when Fing only monitors wlan0?
I didnt, i only search on google. Some guys were report they use this app for that action
I actually saw it on the Galaxy S3 which has tethering enabled and shows the connected devices. so i think it can be done if we port the tethering app from the galaxy s3 to the XS. after that it should work.. maybe.. =D
btw. i tested the app and it didn't work.. :/
Just curious, can you instal that app on second phone and conect to host, can you then look which devices are conected to it?

It should work flawlessly if you had done everything right. Hope you are able to connect the device to PC and is it showing Limited/No connectivity on PC? Check your internet connection works on phone while tethering is active.

@DMJoh, I think there is a solution for not accessing internet. Open Cmd and type ipconfig /release and then type ipconfig /renew and problem will be solved.
@xyp3r try it and see if it solve your problem...

i searched everywhere on my tablet and didn't find anything..
Try using an app if nothing works. It should be there/work if you have an lte device
Sorry, is your device having a SIM card or is it a WiFi device?
