You should try WiFi Direct option under the WiFi Settings.

Looks like it´s impossible to the device (being wifi hotspot) to be in the same network than the hotspot clients with the current technology.
All I need is to be able to send/receive udp datagrams to the clients connected to the hotspot.

Will this work ?

Could you check advanced settings on WiFi and see if it says anything in IP Address box, also are you on stock ROM?
You could also log into the router and see if it displays the connection etc.
Is your mobile rooted?
And have you any MAC-Filters on your router where you have to add the MAC Address of the phone?

Maybe your router is configured for a wifi mode that is supported by one of the phones and not the other ?
Wifi N for instance ? Or 5GHz band ?
Or it could be ip conflict (google)

Did you try to remove the WIFI network and add it again? Does it work on other WIFI networks?
Cheers,

or rather check your baseband version if it suits your location..
try disabling mobile data then connect to wifi..

Creating An Access Point

Hello I'm sorry if this is in the wrong spot, but I am new to these forms and I have a simple question about creating an access point on my tablet. My Lenovo tablet is rooted and I've been searching for an app that will create an access point.
What I want to do is use my wifi and then use my tablet to connect to that wifi and then use the tablet as a wifi extender. I know they have fqrouter2, but that is for any os under 4.4. I'm currently on 4.4.4. Any suggestions for an app that can turn my android device into a wifi extender?
Thank you in advance.

Have you tried PDAnet for tablets, or Foxfi?

Yes I have tried Pdanet. That will disconnect me off of my current wifi and try to host a hotspot off of my own cell phone data.

I don't think it's possible to have both WiFi and WiFi hotspot turned on simultaneously.
What I do though, is connect my phone to the WiFi, then use the Bluetooth tethering feature on the phone to create the access point. That could work for you, if all your devices support Bluetooth tethering.
The range isn't as good as your WiFi router, but its roughly as good as the WiFi AP you'd create with your phone/tablet
There use to be an app that was called Fqrouter2 that did. Unfortunately my worthless Vita doesn't support Bluetooth tethering for internet access.

Thanks!

I don't have the phone at the moment (i'm at work) but i'm pretty sure that the phone is a Samsung J5, without a custom rom.
Founded a solution. I just froze Bluetooth Share using Rom Toolbox Pro, now the bluetooth remains disabled no matter what.
