Okay so I'm connected to neighbors wifi on my note 2 but have limited access on all of windows PCs. I think they restricted me or something? Any way my phone works so how do I share my phones WiFi Internet connection with my PC?
Idk if they changed the band but I have n adapters on my PCs idk why it still works on my phone.
I use Splashtop on my Asus Infinity TF-700 to remotely connect to my PC at the office. When I use Wifi, it works great.
However, whenever I try to tether the tablet to my Galaxy Nexus, Splashtop kills the hotspot connection and I must reboot the tablet and disable/re-enable hotspot on the GN. I am running AOKP 4.2.1 Build 2.
I say it "kills my hotspot" because while tethered before I starting Splashtop my tethered connection on the tablet works great. As soon as I open Splashtop on the tablet, my internet connection on the tablet is killed. Splashtop fails to remotely connect to my PC and no other apps can connect.
I've switching my connection from LTE to 3G and it has no effect. I contacted Splashtop support and they say that my tether probably cannot support the bandwidth, but I responded that I am able to get 7-11 MBPS on the tablet over the tether using LTE, streaming YouTubeHD. They basically have no answers and told me I should try upgrading to Android 4.2.2.
Anyone else here use Splashtop tethered thru your GN? Any ideas?
I just bought a chromecast and I'm trying to figure out if I can get my GNexus to host the hotspot and be the chromecast remote.
In more detail:
I do not have internet from a cable/satellite company. The only internet connection I have is through my cellphone hotspot.
Chromecast will be connected to the internet through my cellphone hotspot (SSID: AndroidAP).
When my cellphone has the hotspot running it does not show up on its own network (AndroidAP).
I need the phone to show up on the network (AndroidAP) so that I can see the chromcast and use the phone as a remote.
Is this even possible?
Try Foxfi?

Honestly don't think this is possible.
It would be like trying to connect the phone to it's own Wi-Fi hotspot that it created?
I am using the wireless tethering in the N7 2013 LTE to connect to my Linux Macbook Air.
On the Macbook, I can connect to the N7 and ping websites, but in the browser nothing happens.
Using the hotspot on an iPhone, I can use the Macbook to connect and surf the internet.
I cannot find a definitive answer: Does the 2013 N7 support connecting to Wi-Fi Ad-Hoc networks? I do not have a router, but I do have a wireless card in my PC which I am using to broadcast a Wi-Fi Ad-Hoc network. The N7 sees the network, but is unable to connect. I have tried disabling all security on the Ad-Hoc network (no password), but it still does not connect.
Has anyone figured out how to get this working?

also wondering if it supports it, I cant even see ad-hoc. Might be something that we can mod onto the stock rom
Not supported. There is an ancient bug report for that:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82
CM might include support:

Do you have a particular reason to use ad-hoc mode? The N7 can play access point just fine; your PC most likely as well.
There is this mod if you really need, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163363, I personally think Google should add native support, is really not that hard, especially for Google

Here it works.
My neighbour gave me access, he is 100 meters away. My laptop has a real teck card with outside antenna and I rebroadcast the signal to my nexus 7 with connectify.
It works....
My home internet went out a couple weeks back and I used ad-hoc on DJLamontagneIII's CM10.2 Flo Kangs rom. It was a build from a couple weeks ago, but I'm sure it's fine on the new one.
There were no tricks, ad-hoc just showed up under Wi-Fi connections and I connected.
Good luck.
I do wireless tether from my lg optimus g to my tablet just fine. If I recall WiFi tether creates it using ad hoc, not infrastructure (unless you have a rare phone that supports it). It works just fine.

The Nexus 7 doesn't connect to adhoc connection unless. It connects only to infrustructure networks and this is with some other android devices. Rooted devices have a way of going around this though.
did anyone have a solution for the nexus 7 (2013)?. I cant find anything helpful at all regarding this.
I really need to connect to an ad-hoc connection
You need to be on window 7.
I think it s not working on xp.
what you are suggesting is just normal infrastructure hotspot.
I need to connect to an ad-hoc wifi connection , specifically to a symbian phone as a hotspot using Joikuspot.
anyone?

this thread seem like showing the solution for other tab, but not for nexus 7 (2013). can someone make it work for our tablet
I just flashed CM-FLO 4.3.1 and it doesn't work. The tablet is able to see the Ad-Hoc network I created with my Nokia E-72 (yes, I know it's old but it's my work phone).
It sees the network. I click on it and connect (network is open; no wep). It then says that it saved the connection but if I click on it again for it to connect it doesn't.
I've tested this with 2 different iPhone's and they are able to connect successfully and browse while connected to my Ad-Hoc. I verified connectivity because the mb up and down counter shows data traffic. I thought CyanogenMod would have it enabled by default. I guess not.
