Hey I was wondering if anyone else was having wifi connection issues with the xoom? Every time I use my xoom I have to keep retrying to load the market, webpages and everything else that uses data. Usually have to reload the market around 3-5 times to get it to work. I have tried 2 different routers and stilll the same thing. Please let me know if anyone else is having this issue and if there is a way to fix it. Thanks
P.s. When Im on 3G everything is fine
I get it but only with Market, I assumed it was a market issue.
On. 3G, for me, everything is dog slow, but I never get the Retry box.

Mine works perfect with my AT&T U-Verse gateway and tethered to my AT&T captivate. No problems here at all with wifi. Do you have problems with other wifi routers? Go to Starbucks or a friends and see if the same issue occurs. If not, there is something with your router that Xoom does not like.
I'm having WiFi issues as well. I don't have any issues with any other laptops in my house ... but my Xoom ... get very poor signal on WiFi and sometimes doesn't get any connection at all. This is serious buzz kill.
Mine is also choking on wifi. Switch to 3g and no problems. Annoying.

Hardly surpisring when the antenna is surrounded by glass and plastic
Wifi is suspect on the Xoom. I cannot get a connection to my secure wireless at work but I can connect to the less secure guest wireless network. I also could not initially tether with my phone (TMobile Vibrant) but after I downloaded Mobile AP I was able to tether just fine and have not had any issues since then.
No complaints here to report. I'm pulling in on average a speed of 17mbps download on most days from my home wifi network. Quite the speedy little guy my Xoom is.
WiFi hasnt been a problem for me either.
So far, I've used it on 4 different wireless networks (G and N/G), using various security options and I connect to each without fail. Hell, Ive even seen the Xoom connect to WiFi when driving down the street towards places that I have it configured to see.
I did have some trouble at one point due to my DNS and DHCP servers being offline. I didnt suspect any issues with them, so I spent more time than I should have troubleshooting the Xoom.

Always Connecting...
Greetings All,
I have been having issues as well after the update. The wireless always disconnects and connects and doesn't stay connected. No problems with my Droid X or laptop or other device.
Problem is that now I'm getting very close to going over my data plan.
Is there a fix in the works, since it worked perfectly with 3.0
Annoyed...

UPDATE: Uninstalled the leaked Flash 10.2 and that has fixed the problem, somewhat. Still disconnects, but less.

Wireless issue fixed....
Greetings again,
Even after uninstalling flash, the problem persisted somewhat. I was getting very frustrated and so I reset the xoom to factory settings. A few notes on that. All applications were reinstalled, through the market which is good and bad.
So far, after 2 days of heavy wireless use, not a single drop in wifi connectivity.
Hope this helps...

So far my wireless is great. I use WP2 Secure at home, a WEP at my parents, and a MAC based approval network at work. All are steady with full bars and no issues.

MyXoomChannel http://www.youtube.com/sleeplessninjas
Its the encrypton protocol, WPA2 with AES will cause problems.
TKIP works.
I also have random issues. Some days its just fine, but other days wifi works and then stops working, usually a reboot fixes it.
Must be some wifi issue.
I have a fully factory stock xoom and have had NO wy fy problems at all! internet conection firm and stable. I intend not to root my zoom untill all the important updates are done and stable. I also am waiting for my 4G card install. I have WPA2 with AES and the xoom conected to it with NO problem
I haven't had any problems with mine whatsoever. I think it could be your router. My Xoom stays connected with my router and I haven't had a single problem so far with connected wifi.
My PS3 needs a router reset every single time I want to play Black Ops though.
ihad this issue. I think it may be hioneycomb and not xoom related because I experienced it on the acer iconia. The good news is that I resolved my connection issue with wifi. On the surface it looks like a dhcp handshake issue so, if you assign your xoom a static ip from your router, the issue goes away and all is good.
Hi Everyone.
I am not a developer nor really tech savy, but I do know how to adjust a few things. Anyways, I just got my Infuse 4G, loving it so far except at my home. I have really fast internet connection and my router is new and is Cisco. My laptop, desktop and tablet all work really well. My infuse though will connect and tells me that it has a really strong wifi connection, but I can't open anything for **** such as a browser or market app. It works fine at work and at any att wifi hot spots.
Can anyone advice me on this? Sometimes though, it works fine but about 85 % of the time at home, I can't open any internet connection although it says that I am connected to wifi.
I am about 5 days close to returning this if this problem can't be resolved.
Any help will be really and greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Probably your router. If it's Linksys-branded Cisco of the "saucer" form factor - find something better. Linksys-branded Cisco hardware sucks these days.
I suggest finding a router that is supported by DD-WRT - I have always been disappointed when running routers with closed-source factory firmware.

I would think that if it works well at work and att hot spots that this would point to ot being an issue with the home router.

Some routers are buggy and don't play well with some devices.
90% of the time it's the router's fault.
I've tried every AOSP Rom/Kernel variations and I can't get anything to stay USB 4g tethered for more then 5 minutes. Tshed was flying with stock CM7 USB tether and then all of the sudden doesn't work. I tried all AOSP Roms. And wired-tether 1.4 is what I use. Please help me out. I have this phone for another year and that's all I'm missing. Please help. A trick, known set up, etc maybe. Anything not to have to reset the app every 3-5 minutes or so. I can't believe I haven't seen this brought up lately? Is it only me?

Yeah u have to install software on every PC u wanna use and that kinda sucks but I still get the frequent resets and they're connection is pretty slow. I have to reset pdanet, wired-tether 1.4, etc. Every few minutes. I used watershed 1.2 cm7 stock USB tether and it worked beautifully for about a day and then nothing. So I flashed imo's kernel and stock tether doesn't work at all but I have to reset wired-tether 1.4 every 3-5 minutes or so.

I don't use USB tethering often, but when I do, the built in version always works perfectly. Tried it on OMFGB, liquid AOSP, and workshed CM7. An older version of Imo's kernel (version 4 I think) supports USB tethering.

I use easy tether and have no issues. For wifi tether I use opengarden (faster than USB tether) don't have issues with either.
And its only when I try to use 4G. 3G will stay tethered all day long if i let it but its just way to slow. I usually get 15-20 Mbps down with USB tether 4g. Thats fast as hell. I wish I had a little Porto WiFi adapter for my work PC's. Cuz yeah when I wifi tether my AOKP TouchPad I dont have this problem.
There may be something wrong specifically with his ROM. I have USB Tethering working fine on my Sense-based ROM, but I tried his and it would work for 15 seconds and stop working, then never reconnect. I tried having something persistently connected to internet on my phone but that didn't help either.
I use the ClockworkMod Tether. Works on every ROM I've tried.
I was hoping I wasn't gonna have to resort to sense but I might have
to. I need this to just work. No installer PC ware

Ive tried my Phenom2 x6 and 2 Diff. Core 2 Duo's (that's just my House).
A few Newer laptops. Wifi tether worked no problem, just alot slower then straight USB (when it works).
There were a few at work I tried and No good either.
Back when I first started bringing up this issue (Sept.) I was told It was a known 4g issue (By a great Dev who has since moved to the Razor, hint hint) and that's why there is no problem with 3 g tethering at all. Just wondering If someone had a set up that completely works with out having to reset every 5 Min or so. I think I had good Luck with ThunderShed 1.3 this weekend. I fell asleep FTPing some stuff from my friend (good size) and It was finished when I woke up. That's a good sign so far. I just need one person to see this thread that has the perfect setup for 4G USB Tethering, 24/7 if need be. It would be great to know.

I always just used the built in wired tether with cm7. I had an issue once where it would drop in and out, but after doing a total reset and reloading cm7 once again, it was fine. I also don't use the DNS with the phone. I switch my DNS on my PC to be layer3 DNS (4.2.2.1 to 4.2.2.6). DNS is allegedly one of the ways they can track what device the transfer is coming from.

Might also try disabling IPv6 and anything else not needed on the connection as it won't actually tether through it anyways. It could be causing a conflict somehow

So you are running which cm7. I am now running TShed 1.3 and stock tether was great for about 20 minutes. Then just stopped. So turned off tether reset mobile data and 3g 4g. Nothing. Not even wired 1.4 works. Rebooted a few times, I've been at this for bout an hour now and still nothing. Not even wired 1.4. So I switched from auto to 4.2.2.1-4.2.2.6 DNS. Thanks for that bit of info. Now do I have to do that every time? Anyway I'm frigging stuck here and I hear all these people's are working fine.

If you set the DNS on your PC, it should stay that way. You can always verify if you need to. But yeah, I used cm7 and the built in tether just fine.

How do I get my USB tether settings to stick on my Win7 Ultimate x64 every time I start my tether instead of it thinking its a brand new connection every time? I got ThunderShed 1.3(stock kernel) installed now and the stock tether isn't working but the wired-tether 1.4 is working great after a couple resets. It must have stuck for a few hours until I shut it off. That's great considering how bad of a time Ive been having.

Not sure why it keeps changing your connection number. It's never done that to me unless I've flashed a new ROM or something when I've used it on windows 7. Turning off and turning back on your wifi device might also do it (the one attached to your PC).
A few people have had the same issue, so I thought I'd start a thread on this disturbing new development. Was there some kind of update that FoxFi hotspot will not activate? No changes in settings or anything. Was working fine yesterday. Any ideas?

Exact same problem for me. I changed literally ZERO settings and have not updated a single app today at ALL (my phone is not set to update apps automatically, I have to do it manually so I am POSITIVE that Foxfi has not updated at all). I wirelessly tether with Foxfi literally every single day for work and it worked fine for me this afternoon at approx. 2pm EST and when I went to use it again at approx. 4:45pm EST it did not work, I got the "You need a subscription" error when turning on the hotspot. I even uninstalled the app and reinstalled and it still doesn't work. I am rooted and on AOC3 if that helps.
Any ideas? Or any other app that will work besides installing a custom rom? This is a MAJOR disappoinment.

It's a huge disappointment considering I deliberately lost root to take the 5.1.1 update, thinking Fox Fi would work just fine for ever. Seriously thinking of reactivating either my old S3 or m7. The USB internet share works fine, but I need the WiFi tether to work so I can use my printer. A dark day indeed.

Working wifi hotspot alternative to foxfi on Verizon S6
Foxfi also stopped working for me yesterday. I found an alternative app however and verified it works on a Verizon Galaxy s6. On google play store for $3ish... "WiFi Tether Router"
It requires root, so not everyone will be able to use it. I am on a rooted Verizon s6 G920VVRU1A0E2. Other people in the comments of that app are also indicating its working on Verizon. that firmware is the newest I am aware of that can be rooted.... but i have not checked in a while so maybe you can root the updated versions now. Either way its worth going back to a slightly older version for a wifi tether that works.
Hey guys I'm having the same problem with my gs6 on version I still have unlimited data tho so what are my alternatives? Anyone have a link to how to root my GS6 and is Wifi Teather Root the only way to go after Imy rooted.
That's it.... This phone going on swappa going back to s5 and will order a nexus 6p or 5x
For anyone who really needs their cell phone internet on another machine, I have a temporary work around solution. I was able to use the USB Tether with PDAnet+ and run a shared connection over ethernet to my other devices. (In this instance I'm running an ethernet cable from my PC to my Xbox One). You want to go to the Network and Sharing Center > Change adapter settings and open the interface that represents the connection between your PC and your USB tether. Go to the Sharing tab and check the box for "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's internet connection." Then run an ethernet cable from the PC to any other device that also has an ethernet port and it should work. I have not tried running a router from this ethernet cable, but it may be worth a shot. That is all I needed to do on my Window's 7 PC. I also tried turning my Macbook Pro on Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 into an access point and going to the Sharing settings and setting it up, but even though my Xbox and other devices could see the AP they were not able to access the internet. I hope these instructions might get someone out of a jam!
Edit: To clarify, my Verizon Galaxy S6 is not rooted and is on the latest software update released by Verizon.

I can confirm that "Wifi Tether Router" app does work. It seems to take a long time to turn it on/off each time, but it does work. I do wonder how long it will work though until Verizon blocks this too......
Tethering works fine with Root. I don't think there is a way for vzw to block that

Why are you using a third party app if you're rooted? The native tethering app is the most reliable and doesn't need to go through a vpn.
I suspect verizon blocked the vpn that foxfi is using.
Well, my S6 has now achieved the status of really expensive paperweight. I just reactivated my old S3 still bootloader unlocked and rooted, now running 5.1.1 AOSP ROM, using native WiFi hotspot, no Verizon bloatware, no ads, simple and effective. Much better experience, and it still remarkably has developer support.
Anyone want to buy a nice paperweight?
J/k I'll most likely hang onto my S6 on the off chance some genius is able to unlock it someday when the planets are aligned just right.

Hi everyone.
Since android 9, all my hotspot software seems non-functional. WIFI tether router and FoxFi. Which is a shame because I paid money for these in the past and had great results.
I'm trying to get around any Tmobile restrictions on data (cap) and agent detection from using the built in hotspot. Any one have any suggestions on what may be working these days?
I believe the current issue is the latest changes/versioning of Android in the forms of patching security issues that have existed in the past.
Thanks so much for your help!
Tmobile, One plus 6 , Rooted stock ROM, TWRP bootloader.

Im using still oreo, try vpn hotspot. Works perfectly for me, however I don't know how it will work with pie.
Contact FoxFi, they will do their best to help you. Last time I used it was over usb without any issue.

Thanks Netgar. I was able to get it functioning after going into developer options and selecting use hardware acceleration which was turned off for some reason.
Not sure if it bypasses the recording mechanism for tmboile hotspot. Ill update later on the results.
