I believe it only means a wireless network (WiFi or mobile data) is available but not connected. If you connect to either WiFi or your mobile data the eclimation should go off on the other because overall you are now connected to a wireless network.

Well you only asked what the symbol meant and I answered that. If you are having trouble connecting to wifi i suggest phrasing it that way. Im sorry i cannot help with that, however; as you have provided no information specific to your situation (this would be helpful so that knowledgeable people can help you). Sorry im not well versed in such problems

If it possible, How to share internet connection from laptop to G1 over USB ?

What you want is called tether but in this case wired tether which is in most ROMs here

Actually I think he's looking for the inverse, which I've seen people look for before. I don't think I've seen a solution though.
I think he wants to do the oposite. Use the internet connection that his laptop is already using so that his G1 gets internet.
If that's the case, then please pass your phone to the nearest person and go read some internets...

Question is, why would you want to? Only reason I can seem to think of is if the laptop/desktop is connected through a wired connection, meaning you have no wifi at your house. If you do have wifi, and your laptop is connected through wifi to your ISP, then your phone can also connect with it's wifi adapter to the same AP.

Wow I just assumed he wanted to use the phone as a router.
I was sharing internet through BT and Wifi for some time, but did not succeed to do it over USB. Beside there is one big problem: even if you will set everything on linux level and have internet in your phone, Android will not know about it. So apps which don't make checks for internet connectivity will work, but these which do, will be waiting for internet. I've found some workarounds, but that problem is really frustrating.

For some people as in my case, wifi and/or cellular sometimes is not an option.
Hi guys,
I am in dilemma, in India we don't have 3g network and to download huge games data for my android is impossible. I can't even find a free wifi network.
So is there any way around to get my net connection from my laptop to my android. Like a wifi hotspot??
Depends what phone you have and if it can hock into an AdhoC wirless network.
I guess you have a desire (i checked your post history)

May help I guess. GIYF
Also you could search reverse tether if you want to do via USB.

Hahaha thats clever ,
Anyway it should be possible through a 'reverse tether'
Hi,
Is there any sulotions for ICS to support ad hoc? I have searched alot and I need to connect my Note to my PC's internet. The problem is that my pc is to old to support connectify etc...
Reverse tethering app uses my data plan in order to appear the connection as 3G. And it uses cable. Not good enough.
Ad hoc would be best option.
Thank you

If you ever heard of an application for Nokia called JOIKU HOTSPOT you will be interested on this topic. I use joiku hotspot on my nokia phone to enable to connect to multiple devices at home. I don't have wired internet. Since this is an ahhoc wifi hotspot I am not updating to ICS unless a hack is available to enable wpa supplicant to "see" the joiku adhoc signal. On gingerbread I had to download and install a modified wpa supplicant file to connect to joiku .

I have used joiku on my nokia
exactly i still dont understand wat exact you want.
You saying reverse tethering have some issue - Now reverse tether application using your wired Internet of your PC for your android device
While Joiku spot is for sharing your device network to PC
So question is you want to share net from your device to PC
OR
want to share PC internet to device?
Edit :wat i understand now is
You dont have wifi router, but just you have created wireless netwok (virtual) and you want to share your device net to PC wirelessly
if yes
try this, it have ad hoc support if i remember correctly, since long i have not used it.

I don't know. It is strange. If i have no credits in my sim card, and I connect to internet via the app, it goes fine. But I can't see connection as 3G and some apps don't work due to this.
Then when I put credits to my sim card, the connection appears as 3G. And the data plan button turns green whenb checking in setings. If i turn of I lose coonection as 3G. Some times it doesn't use data plan, but often it does.
BTW, I never use data plan for anything it is always disabled, but the reverse tether app turns on.
No idea what is wrong.

OMG! He said that the reverse tether is not using my data plan. Thats why I wrote that and thats why i ASKED in first post if someone have a solution for AD HOOOOC.
I never asked for anything else than a solution for ad hoc support for ICS for galaxy note.
And u shoud had started ur own post with ur nokia. U ruined the thread too
Hi guys!
I have problem,that my wifi won't work. It's connected but there's no internet connection. If I change security, i get wifi connection but after few minutes,I lost internet connection but wifi is connected. Same problem on my father HTC WILDFIRE S.
On my laptop wifi works well.
I search on web and there are some people having that trouble,but I didn't find solution. I don't want to use static ip,because I lost router connection,I must use DINAMIC IP for working router.
My router adress is 192.168.2.1
Help me what settings I must to set,change in my router settings. I attach photos from broadband router what settings I have set! Please attach your settings that I can set this on my router. I wan't my normal wifi back.
Thank you all!

Hey there 2010matej.
What router are you using? I have had similar problems that I fixed. Also, some friendly advice would be taking your internet IP off the thread. It can be useful for some people with less favorable intentions.
Also, I'm not sure if it is XPERIA X8 specific.
EDIT: Have you paid this month for internet?

Router: Canon CN WF514:
I have this problem for so time. Yes we always paid for internet!
Ok. I have asked a friend of mine he said that there are a few ways to deal with this problem:
1) A hard reset. Just use a pencil or pen to press the reset button. Hold it there for 4 seconds and the rooter will reset. This will make you start as if from the beginning.
2) Check for any 'broadcast' settings. Enable any that have been disabled.
3) Disconnect any wires and power plugs then clean them and reconnect them.
I'm sorry if this does not work. I have tried quite hard to help but unfortunately this is all I got. My friend also gave me the link to this manual just in case.

Internet is slow at night so maybe this is the problem. Otherwise, try changing your channel. You may get better results. Go to speedtest.net and test your speed. Then come back. Also, connect the wire from router to laptop and it will be faster.
Hit the thanks if I helped anywhere.

i think your problem is based on PPPOE connection type.
thing you do is you connect to your wifi but not to your operator.
THINGS YOU HAVE TO DO:
->go to http://www.torrapk.com/download/apps/WIFIPPPOE_v1.0/WIFIPPPOE_v1.0.php and download wifi pppoe apk
->install (root is needed).
->NOW connect to your wifi as usual.now when icon is displayed open the pppoe apk and insert your opereators username and pasword.(probably same as on your computer/laptop)
and DONE
glad to help

I don't think that is needed at all.. Some routers are really cr*p when WPA2 encryption is used..
I'd try setting it to WEP and trying again.. If it's better, then proceed to MAC allow your devices so your network is secured.
Set the wireless channel to 11 for a strong signal too.
Then in advanced wireless settings on your x8 make sure that NEVER is selected as the sleep policy.
Remove your router in your x8 wireless settings and then set it up again..
Good luck!
Sorry I was under the impression that it wasn't working before at all and now it is. Will read further in future but I have to say that I can't refute or build on lukenda's advice.
I hard reset router again,I didn't set security,but wifi won't work on phone. I don't want to install apps to have working wifi,because I didn't have problems 2 months ago ! And my channel is set to 11!

Hi, I have this s3 mini (SM G730W8) . I have had it for 4 months and never had any problems. But since yesterday, it connects to wifi network internet doesn't work. Chrome says you are offline after trying , apps can't connect etc.
The device works fine on LTE.
Other devices can connect to the same wifi and are working fine, even other samsung devices.
Please advise.

when your phone connects to the wifi does it obtain an ip address?
I believe so, it even shows connected to xyz network. But when I start browsing...nothing!
Oddly enough, even when I try to connect to those free wifi networks which require 'sign in' as opposed to username/password. The 'signin' page doesn't open either!
I would have reflashed stock firmware to see if it solves it, otherwise it must be some hardware failure.

ok, thanks. I will check it out over the weekend.
