http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...t/mod-enable-native-att-tmobile-wifi-t2801442
Followed that tutorial. Settings FCs when I try to turn it on.

Tried the xposed method. Will let me turn it on, but no devices can see or connect.

Unable to start wifi

I searched all over the internet and was unable to find an answer or solution.
I Installed RegawMOD's latest rom.
Wifi was working just fine, The last time i remember that it was working was before used the toolbox and before installing 2 or 3 games. I think that something messed with my wifi driver because when i try to turn it on it says "unable to start wifi", then when i try to turn on airplane mode it says "unable to turn off wifi" When i try to run the Wireless Tether it says that the tethering started with errors that i should check the log. The log says the following from the bottom going up:
Tethering now running DONE
Enabling access control DONE
Enabling IP Forwarding DONE
Enabling NAT rules DONE
Activating wifi Interface FAILED
Configuring WIfi Interface FAILED
loading wlan.ko module FAILED
Does anybody have any useful information that may pertain to my situation?
Everything else is working perfectly. this is the only thing that has ceased to work.
Kernal issues, look at other post i made in ur other thread.

[Q] Router reboots when Captivate reboots?

When I reboot my Captivate, my Rosewill RNX-EasyN4 router reboots also. When the Captivate tries to connect to Wifi that is when the router reboots. This only happens after I reboot the phone. When I just turn off Wifi and then turn it back on, the router is fine. Even if I turn off the Wifi for a while and turn it back later, the router has no problems. Has anyone experienced this problem before? I am running Serendipity 6.3. I think it was happening when I was running stock also, but I am not 100% sure.
Sounds like your router is flakey. Rebooting the Captivate should not cause a reboot of your router. Check the Rosewill website and see if they have updated firmware for your router. That may solve the problem.
I have the latest firmware on the router dated 2010.07.15. I do not think it is a problem with the router because I have multiple notebooks, a PS3, and a wireless printer connected to it. Only the Captivate causes it to reboot.
Turn off wifi before you reboot.

Tried that already. Once I turn Wi-Fi back on, the router reboots.
Ok, try power cycling the router. 2) try the fxr wifi fix from the market.

Tried power cycling already. Installed and ran the FXR Wifi Fix, but that did not help. I went back to try your original suggestion, turn Wi-fi before reboot. Normally I have Flight mode turned on and Wi-fi enabled. When I reboot Wi-fi is disabled. So I assumed that rebooting with Flight mode on was the same as turning Wi-fi off. But I just tried it and they are not the same. When I manually turn off Wi-fi and reboot, it does not cause the router to reboot. The problem seems to be that when I reboot with Wi-fi on the phone is still in the router's WLAN Client Table. And when the phone tries to reconnect while the router thinks the phone is still connected, it causes it to reboot. At least now I can work around it. Thanks for your help.

Are you by any chance using a wireless N router? I've found that my Bionic will reboot my router every time I try to connect, not just on reboots. But if I turn off the wireless N and just use B+G on my router the phone works fine.

[Q] Wifi tether stopped working

Unlocked and rooted XT1053 running a custom ROM and kernel. Running same ROM and kernel for months and was using wifi tether daily.
Wifi tether stopped working today, I just used it last Thursday without issue. No changes made to ROM or kernel in between that time. The only thing I've done since is clear dalvik/cache last night but I don't see how that could cause problems.
I usually just turn on Wifi hotspot via the quick settings tile and it enables. Now when I hit the quick setting nothing happens. When I go into settings menu to enable "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot", it gets stuck on "Turning hotspot on..."
Anyone have any ideas?
Edit: actually - unless I'm missing something I can't even find the native tethering app anymore...somehow it got deleted? Anyone know how it can be restored?

WiFi HotSpot - Won't Toggle w/3rd Party Apps

So I'm a big Tasker user and I use a 7" Android Tablet in my car as my "infotainment system." I have a Tasker profile that when connected to my Car's Bluetooth, turns on Wifi Hotspot and upon disconnection, turns off Wifi hotspot. I noticed that HotSpot was turning on without a problem, but not turning off.
I also have a Widget Button to toggle WiFi Hotspot on/off. Again, it will turn it on, but it doesn't turn it off. As a test, I also used the app Llama and added an action to turn Wifi Hotspot on and another to turn it off. Again, it was able to turn it on with no problem, but when trying to execute the "off" it gave me the error message "WiFiAccessPoint may not be supported by your phone."
This is really annoying since the only other way to turn it off is to go into phone settings, then More, then Wifi Hotspot, then untick "Hotspot" to turn it off.
Besides wondering if this is working on anyone else's phone, I'm wondering if anyone knows where to write or post such bugs for the Moto programmers to see...
FYI - So I found another bug related to this same issue. Besides 3rd Party Apps (Tasker, Widgetsoid, Llam, basically any app that toggles settings) not being able to turn WiFi off, IF they are used to turn it on then turning it off inside settings will not automatically turn Wifi back on as it should.
If you turn HotSpot on via the Moto HotSpot settings then turning it off will automatically cause wifi to turn back on.
Hoping Moto fixes this issue and allows full toggling of HotSpot via 3rd Party apps as this is really killing my automated in-car hotspot.

WIFI auto-disables (5.1.1)

My Gear Live auto-turns off WIFI when I turn off bluetooth on my phone. Does anyone experience this? When I select "Re-enable WIFI" the WIFI turns on, but auto turns off again. No WIFI problems when I turn on both bluetooth and wifi on my phone.
Edit: I discovered restarting the watch is the only way to keep WIFI connected when this happens. Touching "Re-enable WIFI" does nothing.

Honestly this is the first time I see this option screen. And I use wifi quite often. Try resetting your watch and see if that helps.
