[Q] Wifi tethering and my STB - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
I'm trying to connect my wireless STB "satellite receiver" through my phone "to get GIPTV function working" but i cant get any connection and no ip assigned to the STB, i have tried the STB on my WIFI router and it worked fine and an IP was automatically assigned, any ideas how to get through this?? guess it has something to do with DHCP or MAC spoofing.
Thanks in advance.

XDA11i Wifi problem

Hi,
I have dug out an old XDA11i for wifi use at home. The problem is that I can connect to my SpeedTouch wireless router when I turn off all encryption, however as soon as I turn it back on (WPA-PSK) I am unable to connect.
I have done some research on here and other forums and it seems like it was quite a common issue. I have tried all suggestions:
Hard reset, turn off all encryption, connect XDA then add encryption one step at a time then configure the wifi profile on the XDA etc..but I still cant connect.
I dont want to leave my Wifi network unprotected. I have a xbox 360, xbox, laptop, pc and HTC wizard all running on Wifi without any problems.
Can anyone please help me get the XDAii working.
Thanks
I guess no one can help?
managed to get it working myself after some trila and error...
1.Turn off all encryption
2. restart router
3.clear ppc wifi profiles
4. connect without encryption
5.add wep 128-bit encryption (not the best but better than uncrypted)
6. add wep key to ppc.
All connected fine..
my solution is try to MAC address filter the device that you connect to Wireless router.
so that you don't need any protection at all.
I'm using that way so I just need to register my PDA MAC address to the Wireless router and it can connect so well now
I had the same problem with my Fritz!Box 7170. I solved it with disabeling the function "receive IP adress automatic" and gave a fix IP adress. Now it works fine.

PPPoE on Android?

Hi,
I have an interesting problem. I am in Dubai, where the ISP (Etisalat) provides Internet via Fiber-optic cables to my residence. They have this modem which I connect my wi-fi router to.
After connecting to my wi-fi router the usual way, I have to dial-in via a Broadband PPPoE connection, where I provide the ISP username and password. I have to do this every time I connect to the Internet.
Unfortunately, this means I cannot connect my Nexus One to the Internet This is because I am not aware of any app/functionality that enables PPPoE dialing on Android.
I had installed Connectify for Windows 7 that enabled me to share my authenticated Internet connection with other devices (and hence my N1). However, after FR83, this seems to have stopped working as well, for some reason. It is extremely difficult to connect to the shared Wifi created by Connectify, and even after connecting, I cannot browse the Internet.
I have already tried setting a static IP address for the N1, but this did not resolve the issue.
Can anybody offer guidance, ideas? Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
PI
Get a router, set the router to connect through PPPoE and every device that connects to the wireless router will work.
Thanks, but I wouldn't want to spend more money...

Thanks, but I wouldn't want to spend more money on another router. I have a Wi-fi router already, but I don't know if it has the ability to connect via PPPoE. It's a 3COM 3CRWDR200A-75.
Will try and research if I can enable PPPoE via this somehow.
Cheers,

There you go.
Set your current router to connect through pppoe and you are ready.
Good luck.

More accurately, it is a router that happens to have a wireless interface. Most home wireless routers usually have the functionality of a switch as well (that is, providing multiple connections to the same local network), but they usually include routing capability to move traffic from your local area network to the Internet.
Hi guys. I have not access to market because of my region. Can any body get me the WIFI PPPoE ?
wifi pppoe doesnt work for me

[Q] wifi adhoc issues

hi guys,
i have been breaking my head to sort this out.
i'm not able to connect to my laptop internet via wifi on the Note. i have this application called connectify that automatically creates a wifi hotspot on my laptop (i don't have a router). with this im easily able to connect symbian devices on it (my old phones)
but the Note doesn't even detect this hotspot. so i researched a lot and finally found a galaxy sii modified file "wpa_supplicant" which i replaced in the system/bin folder of my GNote. now the phone detects the hotspot but remains stuck at "Obtaining IP address". the status doesnt change from this and not able to connect.
so again i played around and enabled static IP on the phone. i entered some ip address, gateway, netmask and DNS values i got on the net (for another internet connection bsnl 3g). (my own ip is not static, im trying to share a mts mblaze datacard connection) now im getting the "connected" status but when i go to browser it doesnt load up any website. please help. hope i am clear
in ipconfig my values show as follows
ipv4 address: 180.215.40.199
subnet mask: 255.255.255.255
default gateway: 0.0.0.0
i tried with the above values and its not even reaching the "obtaining ip address" status.
Sorry...had a question, but just figured it out myself...can't help you either though.

ChaosDM

I had the same problem before, what I did is to use a different wpa_supplicant then copying it to /system/bin, changing its permission (just copy the original wpa's permission) and rebooting afterwards.
It worked for me in stock LA4 Firmware (2.3.6). But most of the time i had to set the wifi setting to static ip so that it will connect instantly so I recommend you do the same if it doesnt connect automatically.

sorry to bring this old thread up,
but since the ICS update it seems that the wpa_supplicant replacement no longer worked ,,,after replacemant you wont be able to even turn the wifi on
wondering if there's any other way or could someone plz modify the wpa_supplicant file from the new ICS rom so to creat a new wpa_supplicant that works on ICS?
thanks!
after the latest update of Connectify, my note can connect to the hotspot by connectify without any problems
Yes indeed

WiFi problem

Hey guys
When I'm trying to connect on a WiFi network my phone won't connect (except my home WiFi) and it just says that the network is saved. Any solutions? Thanks in advance
2 possibilities - router channels/freq is not supported by your phone or router has Mac filtering to allow only certain Mac addresses

Can someone help woth routing.

I have to use a vpn for incoming services using sprints network. Im connect to my vpn on my phone and route the vpn through my hotspot so every computer gets the public address and all that is working. My hotspot config is gateway 192.168.2.1 and the ddwrt router that my clients connect to is 192.168.2.5. Problem is. When i connect to the vpn it changes the gw and i cannot ping or connect to any services on 192.168.2.5 from the phone. However i can ping 192.168.2.1. Can someone tell me how to add a route so that i can talk to 192.168.2.5 from the phone when the vpn is connected. Thankyou my phone is rooted.
