[Q] T-R42 and Ethernet problem - General Questions and Answers

Hi, i've a big problem with Ethernet.
I've just received my new T-R42 (with bluetooth model) but I think the problem i have isn't related to the device.
I've a PC->Modem->Router<--------PowerLine------>T-R42
I can't use the Ethernet on the R42.... only a weak wifi, which is why I bought a device with Ethernet in the first place....
I think the problem may lie somewhere around router definitions/local area connection definitions/maybe i need to set a static ip for some reason in the android device.
btw, with a different device (streamer) i have networking out of the box (instead of the R42 i mean)
Anyone had this ?
Android 4.2.2
Thanks....

solved. Bad cable......

[Q] Anyone else noticed that wireless N isnt working?

Was playing about with a spare wireless N router that has a wan miniport issue, which I resloved by installing dd-wrt and setting wan to lan. Anyway after this I tried to connect my phone to the router (which was set to N-only) and found I couldnt connect :/
Setting the router to GN-mixed (as in G and N) I could connect but only at a max of 54mbps (meaning less range as it was only connecting in wireless G mode).
Could this be an issue with dd-wrt? or has anyone else not been able to connect to a wireless N network?
EDIT: nevermind, figured out my issue was the encryption type for my password (for wireless N you must use WPA2-AES). Please delete this thread if deemed appropriate

[Q] UG802 Mini Android PC

Hello guys!
I recently bought UG802 Mini PC stick but it is unable to find any wifi network at all! I opened the case to see if the wifi antenna is properly connected, and found no problem at all. UG802 still can not find the router. Is there a solution for this?
Is it hardware or software problem?
Thank you in advance!

Could you give some more details?
- What build Android, Kernel and ROM version?
- Did you flash any new Kernel/ROM e.g the excellent Finless/2dark4you 1.7 ROM (refer to Freaktab forum for more details.) ...this is the ROM that I have on my UG802.
- Do you have any other devices working with your Wifi network?
- Can you see any other Wifi networks in UG802s Wifi settings?
- Is wired connection working e.g. using USB ethernet?
A good idea is to monitor Freaktab and ArmTVTech forum and you will find a lot of experts and information about Mini PC like UG802.

check router settings. i had similar problem but i changed router profile from wifi g to wifi b/g/n
Thanks for the replies!
All the other wifi devices find the network. These are 3 phones, 1 tablet and 2 laptops. The mini PC does not detect any other wifi network at all, and I'm sure there are at least a couple of them around.
It is with the stock ROM, I didn't root it... yet.
Will try to do what you guys suggest.
Thanks a lot again!
So whatever I did, I couldn't make WiFi work.
The solution for me was to buy an USB Ethernet adapter and an USB hub, and now I have internet on my mini android PC.
I shall continue to search for a way to make the wifi work.
Sv: [Q] UG802 Mini Android PC
Today there are atleast three different versions/models of UG802, with small differences. Wifi could get lost on two of them, but only if a custom ROM is flashed. Stock ROM should work fine.
Maybe your supplier flashed a custom ROM on it, I know that they sometimes do that.
Check what ROM you have in settings menu.
Some more information is found here:

Possible wifi fix
I had problems with my wifi when I first got my ug802. I did some research online and found that the supposed 2 amp provided power supply was at fault. I plugged into my iPad 2.1 amp power supply and my wifi began to work just fine.

[Q] Versus 7 - Wifi Repeater 'Connecting...'

Hi there, I've had a lot of help through this forum in using my Android tablet without registering, so I thought this could be the best place to ask a question that's beginning to wreck my head.
I have a Versus 7 Touchpad, and while I know it's just a rebranded something or other made in China, it's actually a decent tablet for the price of €100. Anyway, recently I installed the TPlink TL-WA730RE wireless repeater at home and just have had no luck in getting the tablet to connect to the repeater whatsoever. My android phone (Xperia T), my wife's Nokia E5 and my Compaq PC all connect to the repeater fine and can browse the web/network no problem. However, the tablet just says 'connecting' (to the network) but then reverts back to 'saved, secured with WPA' etc. I know it's trying to connect because if I log onto the repeater through my PC every few minutes the MAC address of the tablet appears along with the status of 'STA -ASSOC', which I think means that the unit is trying to associate with the repeater, but then it just disappears. It may be worth noting at this point that the tablet connects to my TPlink TL-WR841N wireless router running DD-WRT no problem.
I've tried almost everything I can think of, like 'forgetting' the network and reconnecting, ensuring MAC address filtering is disabled, trying static instead of DHCP, resetting my router and repeater etc etc. I even tried apps such as 'wifi strongest signal' from the app store which connects you to the strongest access point in your house if you're using a repeater and walking around. The latest thing I did was to install CM10 on the rooted tablet and everything works apart from the wifi with the repeater, so it wasn't a fault with the original image. Also, the tablet was running ICS 4.0.4 I think, which was the same version of Android as my Xperia T, which connects perfectly.
The last thing I can think of trying is updating the repeater firmware, or installing DD-WRT on it also, but I'm loathe to do that seeing as all of my other equipment is working fine. Other than that maybe there is some sort of updated wifi driver I could try for the tablet itself??
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Just incase anyone else has similar problems with this or any other android tablet, I managed to solve the problem after weeks of headaches.
The problem was that my TPLink wifi repeater's channel width was set to 'auto', where I had other options of 20mhz and 40mhz. Once I paired these with my router -i.e- both the router and the repeater were both set to a wireless channel of 20mhz, my tablet worked perfectly fine. Obviously some equipment can handle the difference in channel width, just not the Versus 7 Touchpad wifi.
Hope this helps someone in the future.

[Completed] Latest Android phones not connecting to WiFi router

At work we installed a new WiFi router a few months back. The connection is open and no one needs a password to connect to it. But many who bought android phones recently arent able to connect to it. I have a OnePlus One with android 4.4.4 which doesnt connect to the WiFi. My colleagues own Xiaomi, Motorola phones which they bought recently, which also doesnt connect to the internet.
The phones detect the WiFi signal, says the network is saved but fails to connect to it no matter what. The temporary solution is to make our laptop into a WiFi router and use it but this is seriously annoying. The router is from HP and I dont know the exam model number for it at the moment
I will be grateful if someone can find any solution for this problem. Also, I am a novice when it comes to gadgets so, if your suggestion is to manually set up my WiFi settings please do so with clear instructions or a video of some sort. However I will be happy if this problem gets solved in a straightforward manner.
Please help!

No need to configure wifi on your device IMO.
Sounds like an issue with the wifi router.
To check an fix the internet settings of the wifi router, you will need the adminstrative access/console/password for the router.
Then you can check that all new devices afre allowed to connect. On some routers you can restrict the access to a list of known devices or by enabling a MAC address filtering.
If you find such options on the HP wifi router, disable it and restart the wifi.
And make sure that the SSID of the wifi network is visible (= not hidden). Some Android devices have issue connecting to hidden networks.
Thread closed. Thank you.

Masking Ethernet as Wifi

Hello Everyone,
I just grabed a RJ45 to USB Adapter to get some propper internet speed into my car for updating things like gmaps and tomtom.
Sadly, tomtom refuses the ethernet connection. it acts like it is a sort of 3G connection.
Now i was wondering if the xposed plugin here, could be used for solving this issue.
Could anyone tell me if this plugin would work on our MCTD Devies?
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.lemonsqueeze.fakewificonnection
Kind regards
