I like streaming TV (ES7005) to my SGS2 inside my home network but I'd love to be able to do it elsewhere too, for example with 3g connection or friend's wifi.
With OS Monitor (from market) I managed to find out that at least while streaming the connection is made to ports 55000 and 55001, but even if I portforward these to my TV I can't make a connectiong with 3g.
Is there any network wizard here that could make it work or at least explain why it wouldn't work without wifi connection?

Hi all,
I need to thether my 3G connection with my satellite linux-based receiver but I have some problems with the built-in wifi module (n standard).
Probably the drivers are not well developed but I experience some random lags (for example I ping it 2ms then 650ms the 45ms etc...) also with my linksys router.
I had to switch to 802.11g only in the router's option to have the receiver working properly.
But now I have the same problem with my S3: the receiver connects @ 150Mbps (so 802.11n) during the tether with the same random lags...
Can I select a lower max speed (a different standard, 802.11g in this case) in the Galaxy S3 (also with external tethering software, the phone is rooted)?
Can I set it for the whole wifi section (I think that also the tethering will go at that speed)?
Thank you very much for the support!
Same problem here
I have this very same problem with my SGS3. My older laptop can't use SGS3 tethering because it lacks 802.11.n. I would really love to know of a way to force 802.11.g tethering on my S3. I'm not capable to root my phone, so it has to be some setting or app.
Is there anyone that knows how to do this?
I do not have a permanent Internet connection at my home. I live by myself, so there's no point in having a connection when I'm not there. I have a laptop, a desktop, a Blu-Ray player, an Xbox 360, a WiFi printer and an older WiFi receiver that connects to a printer with an Ethernet connection.
I have the T-Mobile unlimited Monthly4G plan, and what I would like to do is create a permanent WiFi network at home that will automatically connect to my phone for an Internet connection when I turn on the tethering. This way all the devices can communicate with one another and the IPs will remain the same even when the phone is not in range.
Has anyone ever tried this? Can I do it with a wireless repeater?
Hey guys.
So here is the problem. I am currently without an internet connection and would like to stream media from a off site Plex Media Server.
Now I could just stream it to my phone (the 4g down is outstanding here, 20mb+), but I would like to watch it on the TV.
I can send a video stream directly to the TV from my phone (using Bubble uPnP), but I need to be on the same WiFi network. Obviously the catch to this is I lose the 4g connection if I do this.
Is there any way I can connect to a WiFi network and keep the 4g connection? This seems like something that shouldn't be that hard, but I'm no expert.
I know I can just use a HDMI adapter to do this, but that renders my phone useless as it has a cable fixed to the bottom.
Thanks in advance!
I'm curious about being able to force my phone to use it's LTE data connection rather than a wifi network that it's connected to.
Here's why:
In my car, I have a head unit with a chromecast input through the hdmi port in the back. I put the chromecast there specifically to cast my phone's screen onto the head unit. Chromecast's screencasting works PERFECTLY for this purpose and I'm super happy with the performance
The problem comes in when I get to the fact that the chromecast can't cast my screen without an active internet connection. The dongle needs to download the casting app each time it starts, apparently.
My plan is to purchase a freedompop hotspot and go for the free 500mb a month plan, as the casting software for the chromecast is very small. The LTE connection on my phone is not an option because i'm not able to root, as well as whatever complications would arise from being the device broadcasting a network that it has to connect to.
What I'm trying to avoid is allowing my phone to consume data over the wifi network that it will have to connect to on order to cast its screen to the chromecast and my head unit.
I'm open to other creative solutions if you have any ideas. Miracast was an option, but after attempting to use a roku stick for that purpose, i've found that miracast and the Alpha aren't really good friends yet. If anybody knows of a miracast dongle that works well with the alpha, please share!
Hi, I hope this is the right place for this question.
I'm looking for a video streaming app that will work over a tethered connection i.e. one phone tethered to the other, without a separate wifi network or internet connection. The two phones will be the only devices available. One phone will act as the video camera outside in the cold, the other will be for monitoring the video inside in the warm.
I've found that most wifi-enabled apps of any sort won't work in this scenario.
