I need to create a portable hotspot with my home wifi but when I turn portable hotspot on wifi turns off. Is there a way to do this?
It's so I can share my phone's VPN connection with PS4...
Kind of like Windows ICS...

Is is possible to connect to the Internet via Bluetooth tethering?
I have htc android device and the hotspot is iphone with BT hotspot feature turned on.
I can pair my htc with it (and I disabled my wifi and mobile data), but doesn't seem to be connecting to the Internet.
Any ideas or extra free apps I need to install?
Is it possible for me to share a wifi connection I'm connected to with other phones/devices? Whether it be via bluetooth or wifi.
Please fix your question. Apart from the Bluetooth part, your basically asking if you can share WiFi via WiFi. Can't the other devices be connected to the WiFi source? Or if you want them to connect to the WiFi from your device, all you need to do is to get a WiFi hotspot app from the market.
Can someone explain why this tablet needs a Hotspot. If it doesn't have 3G/4G connectivity why would I need to connect something to this device? When I connect it to a Wifi any other device could connect to the same Wifi without going through the tablet. When I connect the tablet to my phone I just turn on the Hotspot on my phone and connect the tablet via Wifi. So my question is what is the purpose of having a Hotspot built into this tablet? I'm just not seeing a need for it........
Because USB Ethernet adapters work, too. My work has no WiFi Router in range for me, but I can connect a LAN cable to my tablet and turn that into a WiFi hotspot for my phone.
And Hotspot is just a general feature in Android. It also not makes any sense to have mobile.data and such (which is also clogging memory) on a non-telephone tablet, it's just there.
Hi all,
I'm looking for a way of turning my droid device into a portable Hotspot but using my existing BT Connection.
Essentially, I connect to BT OpenZone to access the internet. I have other devices I want to connect to the internet but they don't have browser options to login to BT Openzone.
So is there anyway I can use my droid as a hotspot without using mobile data.
Many thanks.

You could try:
- installing BTWifi app to auto-login to BTWifi hotspots
- setting up Android wifi hotspot on your android device
- turning off mobile data on your 2G/3G/4G connection
- setting up your other devices to connect to the Android wifi hotspot on your device
- keep your device plugged in to the mains for as long as possible
If you are rooted and running a custom rom like CM11, firewalls like AFWall+ give you even more options
Looking for a router that will use my phones mobile hotspot as its internet connection.
I.e I turn on wifi tether router hotspot, router connects to it and shares internet with all devices.
Only reason I want this is because I use my phone as broadband but don't want to turn it on and off to print or have a separate router just for a printer
