So I have tested two different Xbox 360 slims. Both do not want to hook up. Old Xbox 360 with wireless g adapter works fine.
Bui... This has not always been the case with Xbox 360 slim. I used to not have problem. I think this may be due to new WiFi drivers.
Thing is... I can't seem to get the old WiFi drivers back on my phone. I used to have option to host WiFi tethering via wep securrty, which I take as an indicator of old wifi.
I have flashed older kernels to no avail. Running latest rasbean. Any suggestions or help?
Try taking off the Wi-Fi security.

Now I'm in your boat. Internet's down and I'm trying to tether to my Xbox slim. I googled, found out that this problem only started happening after the 4.2 update.

I still think its wlan drivers. Gonna try flashing some old ass kernels to test. Maybe today... I recall it working before wlan drivers were messed with.
I decided to USB tether to my laptop and bridge the connection with an Ethernet cable. Works that way.

anybody have any issues with this? my laptop sees and can use the hotspot but my ipod touch cannot connect to it. also, even with the evo lying right next to the ipod, sometimes it cant even see the connection. i have to move the phone around for it to catch it. i have tried without a passcode and with a passcode. i have been able to detect both (from time to time) but can never connect to it. its getting frustrating.
Also,
my xbox 360 sees my connection and is able to use it but like the ipod, the connection is really crappy and the bars are really low even when the phone is lying next to the wifi antena. any ideas?
anybody have any insight?
Root and use the wireless tether app would be what I'd try.
I know that touch connects to ad-hoc just fine. That is strange though. I'd blame the ipod before blaming the evo.
well im rooted using unrevoked and pretty much anything can see my signal except ipod or other cell phones.
yeah i wish my zune hd would see my wifitether connection too :-(
why arent they seeing these connections. im serious when is say that due to this i may actually return my evo before july 4th....i need wifi and my touch pro 2 was flawless with it.

What version of IOS? I have been able to without a problem. You might try resetting wireless on the iPod. Wireless on Apple devices has been a problem. Didn't you see the keynote for iPhone 4? Even Steve Jobs couldn't get it working...
I don't think it has anything to do with the evo. the wireless tether on my g 1 never worked with my zunehd either. although my buddies ipod could connect to it as well as his iphone.

With the Evo and the Wireless Tether 2.0.5-pre2 & higher builds my zHD can see the tether because it's now AP mode instead of Ad-Hoc. That's why the Wireless Tether app on the G1 & Nexus & other phones don't show on a lot of devices (Wii, PSP, PS3, Zune HD, to name the ones I know for sure), since they don't have AP mode tethering.
Anyway, update your Wifi Tether app if it isn't showing still, because it works fine on my end.

to bring this back from the dead...i have the ipod touch 3gs if im not mistaken.
Ok so I have my Droid Inc inactive since i got my gf a droid charge. I want to be able to use my Dinc as a wifi adapter for my desktop. I dont have a wifi adapter on it and 2 cheap to buy one. currently im using my E4GT as my adapter.
Is there any app out there that will let me connect my Dinc wifi and transfer than to my desktop or a rom that has that built in into it? The one on my E4GT has it built into the rom and just wondering if there is anything like that here.

You may be able to connect to wifi and then usb tether your phone to your pc. Im not sure exactly how it works, or if its even possible, but its something to look into.
Ya that's the way I do it on my epic touch. I just connect to wifi and hit USB tether under wireless and networks. I want to be able to do this on my Dinc.

I think its called Internet Connection Mode on the dinc under wireless and networks. I believe there are also several root apps on the market for usb tethering.
PdaNet is a good app for USB tethering, and doesn't require a rooting. It's free for basic tethering, and worked for me for everything I wanted. It was a very simple process. just search PdaNet in goodle, and it is under JuneFabrics.
Sorry I'm not allowed to make links yet
I've heard good thigns about clockwork mod tether. tethers over USB
http://www.clockworkmod.com/tether/drivers

no root required. brought to you buy the same wonderful guys who brought us all clockwork mod recovery ^_^
No need to reply to this—just looking for a good poll for 5GHz operation on this phone. If you are using 5GHz successfully or have tried, but are unsuccessful, please vote.
UPDATE:
For what it’s worth, I decided to do some brief experimentation with a business-class stand-alone wireless access point and, while I didn’t spend too much time on this, it appears the Galaxy Nexus’s ability to do Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) is broken, non-existent or the device is simply coded (miscoded?) not to connect to UNII-2 5GHz channels (channels 52-140), which require the use of DFS. I was able to connect to this access point’s 5GHz radio using UNII-1, UNII-3 and the 5.8 ISM channels—so, for the most part, this covers channels 36-48 and 149-165. Hope this helps someone.
For more technical information on wireless channels, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels...
Cheers.
SECOND UPDATE:
So, while this worked great for months for me, I seem to be having the issue others have reported in that, all of a sudden, 5GHz has stopped working and I have been unable to get it to work again—and, to make matters worse, this issue has persisted even with Jelly Bean/4.1.1.
Shame.
THIRD UPDATE:
Problem still exists with 4.2.2 and I think the most relevant “official” report of the issue is at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22474.
Works fine here.
Linksys E2500, Channel 48.
Derp, ignore

It would be extremely terrible, luckily we are talking about WiFi GHz not CPU GHz.

netgear n900
Works for me! Netgear wnd3300.
It used to on 4.0.1. On 4.0.2 the 5ghz channel fades in and out and it will no longer connect to it. When it did work it was much faster and smoother than 2.4

Once upon a time...
... it worked. But now it doesn't. The network shows up in the list but clicking on "Connect" literally does nothing.
However, I updated to 4.0.4 last Sunday, and maybe it works now. Will try it asap.
Same issue, it works at the begging bit not now.. It's shows my 5GHz network but i cannot connect.. I can connect only if i'm over the router just 10-20 cm. Also i've try to connect to other 5GHz network but i have the same issue.. Not depending on channel , I've try every channel 36,38, 40 and etc... I want to know is this hordware or software problem...?

Its software. There is a clear pattern here. It used to work but now it doesn't. All of these people didn't suddenly have their hardware crap out.
It worked for less than a week and then suddenly stopped working. Now I can see 5ghz networks but if I click on Connect, nothing happens.
I am using a Netgear WNDR3800. I tried to change channel, bandwidth, remove the password.. nothing.

If it works fine for 70% of the people but not for the other 30%, it might be some faulty hardware. Sometimes it happens.. Nikon is currently recalling a bunch of batteries which are defective and Apple did the same with iPod Nano and other products.
It may be a defective batch of GNexus.
I really hope that Samsung is going to address the problem soon.

Specifically regarding the 5ghz issue working and then not working on the same device, we are talking about 100% of the people that have reported that problem. That was what you replied to, not to people with general wifi problems.
I've seen this issue on various forums including this one, however I haven't seen a solution yet. From what I can tell its been a problem ever since release.
Tethering my tablet to my gnex (was a tf101, now I have an N7) works for a few mins then the phone will drop the connection...some people have suggested getting Bluetooth keep alive or auto connect but neither seems to help. WiFi tethering works but its much harder in the batt.
Has anyone been able to fix this??

My thinking is its hardware related and can't be fixed, that or Google needs to get out of the game cause this should have been fixed long ago. Not being able to tether the Nexus devices (GN to N7) is a massive fail.

Luckily WiFi and USB tether work just fine, but yes its annoying because Bluetooth is a bit easier on battery.

Ok, so I love this phone. Got it about 2 weeks ago. However, today I tried to Bluetooth connect with a friend's Samsung Galaxy S3 to transfer over some photos when, during the pairing, my Optimus G rebooted and now will not connect to ANY bluetooth device. Tried multiple other phones, headsets, and my mini bluetooth keyboard. Hard reset the device and it still will not connect. I know it was working previously because I connected to my own GS3 a few days ago and transferred over an .APK file just fine.
Anyone experiencing any similar issues??
EDIT:
Just got off the phone with LG and they, as I expected, don't know anything regarding this issue and can't do anything but recommend a Master Reset of the device or send it to them for repair/replacement.

That blows man, since I unlocked my boot loader my Bluetooth Wi-Fi 3g and 4g have been running like crap. I get the demi god screen every time I try to update my profile or prl
My Optimus G refuses to maintain a stable bluetooth connection with my Uconnect 130/res system in my jeep. Also, when using LG tone+ 730's it consistently drops connection once a day. Extremely frustrating.
Are these issues with rooted Optimus G's or stock?
If it can't maintain a BT connection that a pretty big deal, especially of your using it as a hotspot. Things like this drive me crazy. The phone build is nice but it seems like LG needed some more testing.

Yeah, mine is straight stock. I'm waiting on a custom OS to pop up before I root my device.
Actually, I want to add an update to my previous issue. Somehow, the device is now recognizing BT headsets and some BT devices such as my BT keyboard. However, it still will not connect to another phone.
I have absolutely no errors with bluetooth on mine, stream music flawlessly in my car and my headset, dunno if y'all just got defective phones, if you're not past the 30 days (if purchased through BB) i would bring them in...
By the way mreniigma awesome avatar!
Been using my Bluetooth now for a while and luckily have zero issues. Works great.
