I'm sharing my mobile data to my laptop which is working like a charm...BUT...while hotspot is active, the phone doesn't have any internet. Which is funny, because the internet on the laptop is still working, so there is no network issue. Does anyone has issue like this one? And is there any workaround?

Hi all.
When i'm activate the portable wi-fi spot and try's to connect through it on my home pc it dosen't work.
on the phone is says that it working and every thing is good but my pc writes ''Without Internet Access''
do i need to install something on my pc?
i really need this.
Thx.
Do you have internet access on your phone?
Did you try restarting the PC?
You don't need anything installed.
I'm connecting to Wi-Fi network my phone finds and turns on the portable hotspot,
i'm not connecting to my operator network.
this can be the problem?
You can't share WiFi over WiFi. It should have been pretty clear... You didn't put attention that when you turn on the hotspot, your WiFi doesn't show "ON" anymore?
Well, in any case, that's why you see no internet connection.
You can use USB hotspot instead.
Ohh yeee.. now it works
Thx a lot for the help and the new information
not sure if anyone had this same problem. I searched the forum but looks like i'm the only who has this problem.
my O2x can easily obtain and connect to my home WIFI network. the strength is good to excellent. but it couldn't connect to internet at all. All other devices can connect to internet thru this network except O2x. I look from the router setup and it can see that O2x is indeed connected. This problem started about a few days ago where before that (since last month) it could connect the internet but when the screen was off, i needed to reestablish the connection with my home wifi. Now, it connects easily but no connection to internet. I go to other network (my brother's wifi), O2x can easily connect and use internet although both networks are pretty similar in settings.
any idea to solve this? or workaround it?
thanks
Try running traceroute in a terminal window from your phone?
Where does the traffic die?
I can't find an answer to this question anywhere. I want to use upnp for streaming video over a wifi connection that does not have Internet access. But of course, once wifi connects, mobile data is disconnected.
I was just using hotspot to create a link before. That worked just fine for streaming media that was already saved on my device, but is frustrating for streaming online video as Sprint times out my data connection every 15-30 minutes while hotspot is active. That problem seems to be only with my HTC One, because I've never experienced that before. But it can't be solved.
So my question is still, how can I stream media over wifi using cellular data? Are there any files I can edit to prevent the mobile cutout when on wifi?

Did you find a solution? I recently purchased a Bebop drone which is controlled via WiFi, for which I use my phone. I'm wondering whether it is possible to still use Mobile Data while I'm connected to the Drone's WiFi signal. My phone is a Oneplus One running latest CM12 Nightly.
My P10 VTR-L29 starts giving problem from today. When I turn on WiFi hotspot to share my WiFi (not the Data internet) internet to my smart tv, the Wi-Fi connection get disconnected from the router.
I have tried with the Network resetting but problem still exist. Does anyone have the solution for this.
Thank you in advance.

It's not an issue, it works like that... You cannot have both activated at the same time...

Just one question.
If you have smart TV, and TV have WiFi module, why do you need to "share" WiFi to connect TV to network?
Connect it directly to main WiFi network
Good question.
My TV Samsung 48 inches Model UA48H6400 started giving problem like the WiFi connection drops while Netflix moving on playing. The Netflix get stuck at 25%. I can see the Internet WiFi connection lost from TV. Turning off the TV WiFi gets back and Netflix will run for about 30 minutes and then again WiFi connection drops. I have tried changing IP settings to DNS manual and set to 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 but the problem exists.
So I did turning off TV WiFi connection from router and connect TV with phones WiFi tethering. So I enjoyed Netflix for 2 days with no Internet problem.
Then the phone WiFi tethering started drops when I turn on phones WiFi hotspot tethering and so far no solution found in YouTube or any other source.
I got another interim solution which is I turn on my phones Bluetooth tethering with WiFi Bluetooth bridge. So Netflix is running no problem so far but don't know when this process will be corrupted.
Hope I have explained the situation.
Thank you

Hi !
I have a S21 Ultra, and use it as a modem for my house with wifi tethering.
I can access my printer with my computer on this wifi network
But here is the problem : I can't access the device on this network from my phone.
I can't print from my phone,
I can't use app mirroring on Windows (open samsung flagship apps on W10 computer) because both S21 and computer have to be on the same wifi network.
Is there any way to make the phone part of his own wifi tethering ? Or workaround ?
Thanks !
no what your trying to do is hack someones phone....its not gonna happen!!!!

Don't understand your message... It's my own phone that doesn't detect itself in the wifi network list. I have no problem to connect network from one phone onto another. It is on the same phone, both emitter and receiver

I think you can try to make a hotspot on the PC and share wifi (from the phone) to the PC hotspot and connect the printer itself to the PC hotspot
Tethering is like connecting a modem to a device. Hotspot is creating a local wifi network for devices to connect to.
Tethering vs Hotspot: Difference and Comparison
Tethering allows a device to share its internet connection with other devices via a physical connection (such as USB), while a hotspot creates a Wi-Fi network to share the device's internet connection wirelessly.

Based on your description you are creating a hotspot on the phone that the laptop and printer connect to? If so then the phone cannot "join" that network as the wifi stack in the phone is being used to run a network and the phone has access to the mobile data network the wifi is representing.
No, only the computer connects to the phone.
but create a second hotspot on the computer that connects the printer to the computer

Your phone wifi module can either act as a broadcaster or receiver at a time, but not both. It will only handle one wifi network at a time, either the one it's broadcasting (endogenous mobile hotspot) or the one it's receiving (exogenous WiFi)
You can see this as a prompt when you turn on mobile hotspot. Whenever you turn on Wifi Hotspot, your WiFi will automatically get turned off. It will even display a notification and ask for your consent (at least mine does)

Wow! That's nice to hear. Haven't used that feature on a phone before. Didn't know it was doable. Well, I guess you learn something new everyday.
thats what hackers and LEA use.....smh
