Hi All,
I'm able to use my Motorola Xoom as a Hotspot and tether to my Pc, the problem that I have is that after some time using it, I stop surfing the web in my lap and if I see my Xoom the 3G is disconnected. I have to turn off for a while the data connection in my Xoom and then turn it back in to reconnect to 3G.
Anyone having this issue??
Should I ask for Verizon/Motorola Support?

Is there such app?
or perhaps something that prevents the phone from disconecting from a wifi conection when it goes to sleep?/
or one that prevents the phone to go sleep while conected to a wifi?
The thing is, my plan is not unlimited and i dont want to use 3G if a wifi connection is available and connecting each time is a pain.
At some point Froyo was doing this (conecting automatically, almost instantl to my home wifi when i opened browser for instance) but not anymore.
cheers
I am having problems with applications on the phone not being able to communicate when wireless tethering is turned on. Examples are Google Talk and Touchdown both quit working when I enable the wireless hotspot. I have a wireless Xoom and use the hotspot for it to connect. Other applications on the nexus seem to work like the browser and the market. Google talk comes up with 'Network currently unavailable. Will connect automatically when available.' As soon as I disable the hotspot it connects. Anybody else having problems with wireless tether?
Yes, I've noticed when I'm connected to 4g and turn on Wireless hotspot or USB tethering my 4g icon turns grey and I am no longer connected to 4g. I've repeatedly checked to in different locations around my city, and at different times of the day. Same behavior. Something tells me its not coincidence.
So I have a new Razr HD and I've rooted it and done the hotspot hack but when I connected my computer to the phone to use the internet it drops my data for 5 seconds. Once it comes back as soon as the 4G LTE symbol turns blue it will drop again and it repeats this until I disable wifi on my computer. Wifi tether and USB tether all have the same results as the hotspot app. Does anyone know what could be causing this or what I can do to fix this. I have 5 bars and it NEVER drops unless I've connected a computer to it. I have unlimited data and it's an employee account (relative) so I really don't see what the hell is the issue.

I'm using PDANET+ for USB tethering and it works perfect, and wifi tether Trevor mod for wireless tethering. No more throttled tethering. No more disconnects. The factory hotspot/tethering still drops my 4G.
Hi to everyone,
I have kingzone k1 turbo, nowadays i'm having an issue with wireless. After surfing internet for sometime with wireless connection, the internet goes away. I still connected the network but no internet. If I turn off and torn the wifi on again, I can connect to the internet for some time. After some time internet goes away again...
I tried with different roms, but the same...
What could be causing this, any idea???
Hello,
I marked this post as fast answer because I have no internet by the end of tomorrow.
I have an android phone and an android tablet, both can receive WI-FI over an public wifi hotspot "freewifi" (In france).
I want to tether that public hotspot over wifi because the signal is only in the garden, so I can use it in home.
My android phone can only tether 3G/4G signals and my tablet can't tether since the wifi is only activated to receive the signal.
I can put a wifi key in my phone or tablet but I don't think that's possible that way.
Basically, what I want to do is a WiFi repeater but with my phone or tablet to enjoy the wifi in the house.
Thank you for all answers.
the only way i could think of this actually working and this is a big maybe. is using an OTG cable from your phone to an external usb wifi. IF your device supports such things. and if thats even able to bridge the connection from one to the other.. Would have easier time using an old laptop(still will need a 2nd wifi card/or usb wifi adapter) or something in this case honestly or just pickup a wifi repeater/range booster. Also some wireless routers do allow you to use it as a repeater.
Thank you, I will try that.
I found an android app named "fqrouter2" that repeats the wifi signal, needs root, gotta try that.
