Wife and I had Samsung Note 9 devices before and recently upgraded to the S22 Ultra. We have Ubiquiti FlexHD and BeaconHD access points through out the house with a Dream Machine Pro running the configuration and routing. We have 3 VLANs: IOT, internal and a guest. The internal is for things like computers, NAS, PS4, etc. IoT is for all of the smart home automation devices and the Google mini and alexa echo are on the IOT vlan since we use routines. The rules are setup to allow internal to reach IOT but IOT can only reach internal if something initiates the connection. Both networks have multicast DNS enabled. This config worked fine with the old Note 9's, current laptops, playstation, etc. The S22's can stream to an Amazon Echo on the IOT VLAN without issue, but not the Google Home Mini. Any ideas? Any services/apps I need to make sure are enabled?
What happens when you try?

For example, if I launch Spotify and try to cast to a device, it just says connecting for ever. If I launch Google Home, I can see the basic device info, but if I try to change anything it disappears. All apps from the play store, Samsung store, and firmware/security updates have been applied.
I have tried to set the wifi mac to not be random and that didnt change anything.

Can anyone assist me in setting this up? Every time I try to do remote gamestream it tells me that my PC is "Offline" but I can log in with apps like Splashtop, and I can even use VPN (thou I will be honest, I don't know exactly a VPN does).
I cannot get past the whole "trying to wake up computer" it just does the spinning and eventually goes back to the game select screen.
Router = Linksys EA3500 (Dual band so it uses 2.4 and 5)
GPU= 750 GTX
GFE = 2.0.1.0
Driver 377.50
Shield = 4.4.2 (Up to date)
If you need additional information please let me know. And thank you in advance.

1) Have you forwarded all the relevant ports?
http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3483/~/remote-gamestream-router-port-forwarding
2) If your router has firewall defense (eg drop ping, ddos protection etc) then disable it
3) Check your external IP address and add your pc manually using that.
Check the ports that the shield are using for stream, and check your windows firewall, most of the cases are problems with the firewall or port forwarding, and also it depends if you are using cable internet or dsl internet, but first you shiuld try to check you ports and frewall and then check the internet to extranet conections.

Hey all, I'm not certain if you've solved your problem yet. I had the exact same issue that you did and I found a cure today. Assuming you've opened your ports or enabled Upnp, all you need to do is get your PC's local IP address, and use it as the DMZ host for your router. My shield immediately started connecting to my PC remotely. ****ty part was trying to edit all of those settings with a ****ty remote desktop app such as google chromes or splashtop.
I hope this helps you or anybody else having this issue. As of today 11/16/14 all of my apps and drivers are all up to date. Using GTX 760 and Shield tablet.
Hi. Yesterday I got my new Z3, and since then, I've had nothing but WiFi trouble.
My basic home setup:
Linksys EA4500
1 Mediapc with Plex installed
1 Sonos speaker
1 Chromecast connected to my TV
3 pads (samsung, sony tablet z)
Several android phones
Until yesterday (and exept with my Tablet Z - more on that later) my network works as supposed. All units can talk to each other, and most important, my phones and tablet can ALWAYS find and use my Sonos, Chromcast and Plex server. I have a Nexus 5, SGS3, SGS4 and more, and all are connected. Always. Without hickups.
Not so with the Z3. Althoug it says I'm connected - and I can indeed reach outside websites like cnn.com etc.. more often than not the in-house resources are unavailable. Early on I remembered that my Tablet Z had a similar issue, but turning off the Stamina modus on that one always solved the issue. Again, not so with my new Z3. No matter how many functions I turn off - starting with Stamina mode - I'm unable to reach my Plex server, find the Sonos or Chromecast devices. Also, restarting the device or the router don't seem to help either. Even more frustrating, suddenly the phone will find the resources, only to have them drop out again two minutes later... even if the screen was on all the time (did not go into stand-by).
I've turned off all the functions that was part of the reason I bought the phone...
I've changed the router setup to have mixed modes and all other tips I've found on the forums...
I've tried setting a static IP-adress for the phone on the router, and although it lists the phone, still no luck...
(beside the fact that all other devices still connect and work as expected)
I'm extremely frustrated. This is a premium device with a premium pricetag, and I cannot trust it to even connect and use my own WiFi setup.
So in short - please advice.

maybe the no. of devices connected to your router is limited? try removing some devices from your server and try it..
Settings > WiFi > Menu > Advanced > Uncheck "WiFi Optimisation"
See if this makes a difference as it disables all power saving features related to the wifi chip.
Mine was useless. But swapped router and seems fine now.
Try a factory reset on the router, clears all data but leaves original passwords and stuff, if you've not messed with the router, then it's a simple fix.
If you have messed with the router then it might be a setting you tweaked. So a reset may help.
Either way, worth a shot
Is that even possible?
I got adblock plus which requires all traffic through port 2020. So I set my wifi up accordingly. But then I can't connect to play store.
If I connect directly without advanced options or specific port, I can access play store without any problem but the ads, they're everywhere.
So ideally, I want the option to connect to the same wifi using two different options. Is this somehow doable?
Cheers
Hey guys,
So basically I drive a 2016 Volvo V70 (car model not so important tbh) and before I got my Galaxy N20U I used to have an iPhone 8+.
At the time when I connected it to my car's bluetooth system, things used to run quite perfectly when playing music. Using the car's buttons I could rewind and fast-forward songs by pressing and holding in apps like Spotify.
Now with the Galaxy N20U, answering calls works sorta well, and I can skip songs forwards and backwards by short-pressing the car buttons, BUT I can't "slide" or "seek" the tracks, as in fast-forward or backwards, like I used to be able to do with the iPhone. I did all sorts of basic troubleshooting like unpairing and repairing the phone, resetting, trying other music players; but the problem still persists.
I messed around with the bluetooth connection type in Developer Mode settings on the Galaxy, but tbh I don't really understand what the settings mean or which one should be right. I'm not really aware what bluetooth version my car has either, but I think it would be an older version since it's 2014-2016 technology.
How can I fix it or tune the settings of the Galaxy in order to solve this? Or are there any apps I could install which fixes this issue?
Another problem with the Galaxy's BT connection is with my Windows 10 laptop. It's a pretty new laptop (HP Spectre 15 x360 2019) running the latest version of Windows 10.
Basically I did what everyone would do and I linked my Samsung to Windows, so I could have a similar continuity experience like Mac/iPhones have, like having a stable and automatic connection, picking up calls and texts from your laptop, and most importantly that your phone shares hotspot automatically through Bluetooth tethering when you're outside of home.
I tried several things like linking and unlinking through Microsoft's "Link Your Phone", and even tried with Samsung's Dex. I tried with both functions on, or one of them being unlinked.
The problem still persists, that it's not an automated and constant connection between the laptop and the phone, and that especially when it comes to automatic bluetooth tethering; then I always have to do it manually through clicking through several menus on Windows and creating an Access Point connecting to Bluetooth like some sort of a LAN connection. Every single time. And even when this connection is established, I'd see a LAN icon on the status bar (instead of signal bars) and when I expand the menu, it doesn't even list the current connection it is on (like "Samsung bla bla bla: Connected"). Instead I just get nearby WiFi networks and that it's searching. I DO get internet though and it works fine for the most part, but once I leave the room and the phone gets out of the range, or I put the laptop to standby, then I have to repeat the process all over again.
Even when I opt to sharing internet from my phone to the laptop through normal WiFi hotspot, I notice that the connection drops frequently.
To summarize, when it comes to both the car and my laptop, my Galaxy N20U does connect to them and offers the basic functionalities of the BT connection, BUT it misses other basic functionalities and it tends to be a half-baked, unstable connection.
Please help me out with this! Running the latest versions of softwares on all the named devices here.
For now turn off Developer options.
Clear the system cache on the boot menu
Reset network connections.
Pretty harmless and it may fix it...
dont have that problem
Posted this on r/HomeNetworking and r/androidapps but it's a very specific issue so just trying to increase my chances of finding someone that can help
So I know this is oddly specific but I'm at my wit's end trying to figure this out. We live out in the middle of nowhere so our phone data (full bars service from Verizon somehow) is our only source of internet, so I use a USB tether through PDAnet (for avoiding hotspot data cap) on a phone to a laptop that is then connected from its ethernet port to a router's WAN port, which then provides a "pure" WiFi connection to the rest of the house (PDAnet's native Direct WiFi hotspot setup is useless for any device that can't use the PDAnet app on its own end). I recently set this up (i.e. actually utilizing a router instead of Windows Hotspot) and it's worked great but we're STILL having this same issue that was happening back on the old Hotspot configuration.
So now that I have an actual interface to configure the connection (i.e. the router config page) I was hoping I could finally address this issue. Basically whenever I try to load a video on the Playstation Network store from my PS4/PS5 connected to said WiFi or when I use the Netflix app on my Chromecast + Google TV also on the WiFi network, something is pinging back to the initial PDAnet connection so that it gets "unchecked" on both the phone's app as well as the desktop app, thus killing my entire network until I manually turn both back on.
Going through Netflix in the laptop browser, using literally any app other than Netflix on the Chromecast + Google TV, and using PSN for any purpose besides loading videos in the store all work perfectly fine. I'm thinking is has to do with some sort of location check but I have no idea what else I can adjust in any of the device's settings or the router config page to fix this. Trying to turn location tracking on/off on both the phone and laptop has no effect, but I know Netflix can be weird about location (i.e. different content for different regions and people using VPNs to get around said location issue) and I know PSN does something similar (i.e. different content based on different regions again).
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what exactly is different about these two scenarios that causes PDAnet to "nope" out of the situation, and what else I can try to adjust to remedy the issue?
