I am on B119 and have not been able toget tethering working. I have tried both wifi and bluetooth. Also downloaded numerous tethering apps from the Playstore none of which work. I have tried tethering to a nexus 10, samsung galaxy and an Asus laptop.
All can see the P6 tether but cannot allocate an IP address to the attached device.
Anyone else having a tether problem on this or another rom version. Have tried a factory reset with the same result.

Hi, I'm running the rasbean custom ROM with 4.2.1 on my galaxy nexus, and I can't seem to get wifi hotspot working with my computer. I tried the built in tethering option as well as several apps like foxfi as well as different encryption types with both my windows 7 pc and my windows 8 laptop. It says it has "limited connectivity" on both computers, with no internet access. It works perfectly when I tried connecting using my Kindle so i'm thinking I don't have something configured correctly. Thanks!
No one has any ideas?
For me it takes a minute to sort out the IP address and what not. I usually do an IP release and renew on my laptop if I have the limited connectivity problem.

I've been using ParanoidAndroid on my Note II and recently I realized that wifi tethering does not work. The service indicates it is active but it does not transmit a wireless network name, so no device can connect to it by wifi. Bluetooth tethering works. I have tried 3rd party rooted apps and they indicate that the cannot run because ad-hoc mode cannot be entered. Is there anything I can do like change the kernel or some other mod or app that is able to run tethering? Or do I need to just wait for the developer to provide an updated rom that fixes this?
wifi tethering doesn't work
that's exactly what i'm getting too, error starting ad-hoc mode... hope this gets fixed :crying:
Hello all,
As with some other users on this forum, I'm having trouble connecting my N7105 running N7105XXDMC3 (rooted) to some Wifi hotspots (other devices, such as my laptop and tablet connect OK to these networks). I've had a look at some of the proposed solutions on this forum (such as disabling Keep Wifi on during sleep or disabling Check for Internet Service), but they don't seem to work. I've also seen some suggestions that this is a 4.1.2 specific thing, and that reverting back to the 4.1.1 wifi files solves the problem. I've tried that as well by downloading the relevant wifi files from a couple of places (xda, another website), copying them to /etc/wifi and also /etc/dhcpd (changing folder permissions to rwxr-xr-x), rebooting the phone and trying again, but to no avail.
I even tried using Connectify on my laptop to create a wifi hotspot to act as a bridge between the problematic wifi hotspot (hotel) and my Note 2 - although other devices are able to connect to my Connectify hotspot (laptop, tablet), my Note 2 still fails to connect, giving the same error message.
Any thoughts?
So I just tried a bunch of kitkat Roms and found Gummy to be the best for me right now. The only problem I'm having is when wifi tethering is on, the connected devices are in a "limited" mode and get no internet.
Anyone have a solution to this problem? I've flashed the latest 3 versions of Gummy and they all have the same problem.
Hey all. I am having issues with connecting my tablet to my wi-fi tether on my phone since I updated the 4.4.2. I keep getting the message "network disabled because internet connection is slow" when I try to connect. I was able to connect without issues before I updated to 4.4.2, have not made any changes to tethering settings on my phone and no power saving options are enabled on my tablet. I have also tried forgetting and reconnecting to my hotspot and this has not resolved my issue. My phone is a Sony Xperia Z and tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014.
Has anyone else had issues with connecting via wi-fi tether with 4.4.2 and if so are there any workarounds or fixes? I have searched the web and forums and have not found anything on this issue except for the Galaxy Note 3. Those issues have been resolved by changing some advanced options in wi-fi settings which have to do with wi-fi and cellular switching. My tablet is wi-fi only so I do not have those options.
