Hey everyone,
I've been searching and reading lots of threads and haven't found one that seems to address the problem I'm having.
So I have a Tilt 2 currently with NRGZ28's Energy Oct 20 ROM (installed earlier this evening). The problem is that I can't seem to transfer large (let's say 5MB+) files over instant messaging apps (AIM, Yahoo, MSN/Windows Live) or via FTP without having the file either fail with an error, or just sitting there with the completion time climbing higher and higher.
When I check Windows 7's Task Manager and click on the Networking tab, there's no bandwidth usage at that point. I can still send and receive IMs on all the networks at once, Outlook is still functional, web pages still load, but the files just won't move.
I have a similar problem when trying to view videos on Hulu. YouTube and other sites do better, but they stop to buffer far too often to make it fun. Even with 360p videos on YouTube, it stops quite a bit.
My signal strength shows 4 bars and H (3G).
I have the latest radio ROM for AT&T. I previously was using the factory ROM and thought updating the radio might help, but it seemed to make no difference.
Possibly related to this:
I have a laptop and a desktop. When I use the WiFi router app with this ROM, the laptop connects to it without problems, but the desktop, which has a Realtek Wireless N USB adapter, sees it, connects, and then most of the time has no Internet access. Even with the laptop turned off. The adapter is set for DHCP and all the usual default stuff, but it lists the gateway as being 192.168.1.2 or .0.1 (I forget which now), when the laptop lists .1.1.. A few weeks back, I could have both connected to the WiFi router in the phone without problems, and even copy files between the computers. Now the desktop works right about 1 in 10 attempts but works fine using the Phone As Modem thing with a USB connection.
But even using the USB connection, I still have the exact buffering or not loading at all, or not transferring files problem.
I found that using Total Commander on the phone, I can connect to my FTP server and upload a 35MB (the only one I tested) file very quickly without any problems. So the problem appears to be with tethering of any kind.
Speedtest.net usually reports about 1.0 or 1.1mbps incoming and about .3mbps outgoing.
I'm using MediaNet for the connection and have used most of the Energy releases over the past 5-6 months. I also ran Task29 several updates back. I haven't since, but I didn't see any difference before running it (probably 10 ROM updates) and then maybe 5 after running it.
I'm in Orlando, Florida and when downloading from various servers, I usually get 350K/sec, give or take. I can't understand how that's not enough to watch 360p YouTube videos. Sometimes they'll buffer just far enough ahead to not be a problem, othertimes I'm not so lucky and have to pause for 30 seconds to get a minute of video buffered.
The desktop is a Q6600 with 8 gigs of RAM and Win 7 Ultimate, the laptop is an AMD 2GHz with 4 gigs of RAM and Win 7 Home Premium.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Anyone?
I also just found I couldn't upload a 30 meg video to Facebook (I assume that's over HTTP port 80). I got about 10 megs out and then it just stopped transferring. Task Manager Networking was dead and time remaining kept climbing, but there was no timeout.
So it doesn't seem to be related to ports, but more so with outgoing data and tethering. And I have the same problems with USB or WiFi tethering..
Thanks!
Eric
Anyone?
Bump?
I just did a test on speedtest.net to Wichita (that's what it detects is closest, not that it's anywhere near Orlando).. Download was 1.93, though it seemed to sit around 1.8 megabits/sec during most of it. But these timeouts are still a problem. I really could use some advice here
Thanks,
Eric
I have major issues downloading large files via WLAN (e.g. offline cards for travelling or game content from Gameloft). After just a few megabytes the download suddenly stops, the wlan symbol disappears and the download times out.
A few seconds later, the WLAN Symbol reappears and a connection ist possible again. The WLAN issue impacts other devices too, my macbook drops the connection an reestablish it a few seconds later. I tried different settings on my router and even another model. Nothing helps, no B/G/N setting, no adjustments for fragment or rts threshold, removing encryption, changing channels, passwords, static IP.
Does anyone else experience this behaviour too? I'm running now stock kernel 42.0.2.A.0.42 with Baseband 56, as provided from SE. Does anyone have a working solution?
I have the same issue with stock browser. I switched to Opera and now I can download larger files to my phone.
Same here...same FW and baseband...wifi keeps getting intermittent...previously owned xperia play but connection to the same router had not given issues like this...
I assume its not hardware...been looking through the net but no working solutions yet...hoping someone in xda could shed some light...
Hi,
I use internet pass through (Using laptops internet thru USB tethering) a lot to download huge size game files or update my apps. However I have noticed one problem with this feature. The internet pass thru works correctly for few minutes and then it stops downloading anything and the download speed also changes to 0bytes.
I then change the connection to charging wait for sometime and then again changing to internet pass thru which makes it work again. This behavior is constant from the day I purchased my phone on launch date.
My laptops firewall is off and the connection appears in my network sharing as unidentified .
Is this a bug or some problem which can be resolved by any changes. I already searched on similar topics and no thread answers to my satisfaction.
Please help me.
After flashing both the 020414 and 030914 builds of the Shiny ROM for the Galaxy Nexus, I found that I encountered browsing and network communication difficulties with a device (2013 Nexus 7) tethering through the GNex.
I observe on the tethered Nexus 7 that most pages won't load in the browser and on the pages that do load, often the images don't load. Most Google-hosted pages seem fine. If I turn on Chrome's Bandwidth saving proxy, most web pages load ok. Most other apps encounter network timeouts or other errors attempting to do their thing over the tethered connection.
During this situation, the browser and apps on the GNex do not show any issues.
This problem appears both with Bluetooth tethering and WiFi tethering.
This worked without any problem in stock 4.2.
I observed that, when tethered through the GNex, the MTU setting for the bt-pan (or wifi) device is 1500.
I also observed that the GNex's rmnet0 device used for accessing the 3G/HSPA network has an MTU of 1440.
I have read elsewhere than most of Google's servers use a smaller-than-normal MTU setting. I think this may explain why Google pages work and the Bandwidth saving proxy in Chrome makes many other pages load on the tethered Nexus 7.
I'm guessing here that perhaps when tethering is initiated, it's supposed to set the MTU of the tether interface to the same or smaller MTU than the 'upstream' interface has -or- something is broken in the packet fragmenting/reassembly in Shiny ROM.
Has anyone else experienced this sort of problem? Were you able to determine what the underlying issue is? Did you find a way to work around it? I've searched and not seen any threads about GNex/tether/MTU issues before.
Thanks!
My new pixel is having an issue with SHA512. See the screen shot for my error message. The configuration works on my nexus 6 without issues. Same with windows. Anyone else know what the problem might be or how to fix it. I tried a few different clients some would say they connected but in the logs is just shows the auth packets over and over and not an actual connection when browsing it would say no internet.
