Your question is a bit confusing.. Are you trying to tether (send internet from your phone to your pc)? If so, look for WiFi tethering.

Also not sure of the question but I'll take a crack at it. If you're running a tether, make sure your network allows it or you are rooted with an app that supports it.
If you're running a hotspot off of your computer, make sure it is up and running and broadcasting the ssid

Do you use same network as when you installed your system.
I met this issue when I switched to a new router. Nothing I did would resolve it so I installed the system all over again while on the new router and voila..

I had the problem too. Needed to factory reset, not restore anything, and the wifi tether for root app was working again.
Needs specific settings though. I'll share tomorrow sometime if someone else doesn't first. It's easier to paste from the pc.

They got the native working cuz they can't use the WiFi tether app.
We got a modified WiFi tether app to use.

Not able to send via wifi direct

Hi....I had flashed the latest version of philz kernel on my stock jellybean n7000. Following this I have noticed that im not able to send files via wifi direct. I can only receive.
Wifi direct is one feature which I love...pls give some suggestions to get it up and running.
Thanks

As an alternative to WiFi direct I recommend You this app:

It's way better than WiFi direct

talking about wi-fi direct alternatives, i would like to ask here for more wi-fi direct alternatives as i am on PA, also should the other person also have same app to be able to transfer through that app? or is that i can use this app and other person can still receive it via wi-fi direct?
Yes, the other person has to have this app installed.
But trust me it's worth of it.
The app works like this: receiver makes an WiFi access point (app does that automatically) and the other phone just connects.
Some other apps :
WiFi file sender
Hoccer (maybe spelled wrong)
Bump.
But as far anyshare is the best
Try it

Nah, I don't think so. Only original wifi direct can connect. I haven't seen any other app to send via WIFI direct.
Just send Your friend (or whoever You want to send files) anyshare and You're ready to go.
While I'm sending from my note to sgs2 the transfer is ~1.3MB/s and it's much easier in use. Wifi direct sometimes has problems with connecting, custom ROMs don't support it well. That's why I have used WIFI direct like 6 times in my life.
Just give it a try
Never knew of these apps...do they work on other phones as well? Thanks ! Will give them a try :thumbup::beer:

Yes, they work on other Android phones. Idk what the minimum required version is but I think it's 2.3+

Wifi direct is not enabled - from HTC support

I asked how to use wifi direct. Here's their response:
" I understand your concern on the WiFi direct file transfer and the icons on the status bar. Currently the Wi-Fi direct function is not available, but will be enabled in a future upgrade. Until the update is available, you are still able to share files using Bluetooth."

I've been able to use Superbeam without a WiFi connection, but it was a bit slower. Just answer "no" to the question about being on the same WiFi network.
