hi Guys ,
I come to you as a friend in need, I have a serious problem bwith the internet sharing on my ameo, as you can see I am on it now typing this, but I can't for the life of me get it to share the connection, I don't have a bluetooth dongle for it, so its usb all the way, here is what happens:
my pc running windows xp doesn't have a modem attached, only thing connected to it network wise is my playstation 3, I don't have the interet at home, hence wanting to use the ameo for the connection.
plug the ameo in, bink active sync goes on, leave it to sync, then I have tried a couple of things to no avail, just hitting internet sharing then, ameo dumps the usb connection then restarts it, nadda no I-net explorer, nothing pinging
I have tried starting the sharer before connection the usb lead nadda,
is there a set of setup needs I am blatantly missing? everyone seems to jus say they plug it in and it works, but I can't seem to get over this hurdle.
perhaps its simply a network setting on windows?
Can anyone thinks they can help suggest something I am doing wrong? even if it sounds obvious to u I might just be missing something simple
ps I am running pk dual touch
Many thanks in advance
Peter
hmm, just did a soft reset and now its working....hmm...
would still like to know what caused it, i turned off advanced usb features could that have made it start working?
whats that for anyways?
Peter
I get this sometimes, the ameo acts as a DHCP server and assigns the computer an IP addy, sometime however it does not assign an addy and so there can be no data transfer !! a simple reset of the ameo appears to sort it every time !!
i always found that the modem link, Wireless modem and Internet sharing applications always worked better if you activate them BEFORE connecting the USB cable.
Either that or the dodgy power supply on my USB hub is causing the problem!!! :-D

I completely agree, connecting the service before connecting the USB is much more reliable
PS did you guys know that we aren`t supposed to be able to do this, apparently to connect to your laptop you are supposed to use web and walk pro at £12.50 per month not just web and walk my mate can`t do this through his nokia cos it does not support internet connection sharing
well this problem happened to me today..what i did was right click my network places and disabled the LAN.coz win xp was choosing my LAN as default.once i disabled it it chose my athena and wala i got internet sharing.hth
When I'm in my basement I get horrid wifi, especially with the prime. I think I remember reading that a laptop can kind of redirect its wifi connection to the prime? It would help me a lot if I could do this, and I have searched around with no luck. Please help
Use another android. It can probably do that with some hotspot thingy.
Wifi desktop to wifi hotspot
Hi,
I found this website that seem to do what you need to do. I hope its what you need.

You may not need Connectify (at least not with a Windows 7 laptop) ... but I used the following method on a laptop connected to an ethernet cable. This may not work when wi-fi is your connection...but it's worth a shot.
Put the following into a batch file, and run it when you need a hotspot from your laptop:
netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=<name> key=<password>
netsh wlan start hostednetwork
Change <name> to the SSID name you want and <password> to the password you want. I do this often at work. With my laptop, download speed maxes out at about 3Mbps, even though our internet connection 10 Mbps.
This is not a permanent thing. After a time of inactivity, this little temporary hotspot goes down -- if you are actively downloading something, it does stay up and running. I just run the batch file whenever I need it for a time.
I'm trying to use my phone with xbox 360... I have my DDWRT router connected to my phone as a wireless repeater... everything is working.. I can connect to xbox live, but I'm getting strict NAT. I've tried opening the ports on the router, but it don't work.
Really the router wouldn't need to be configured, it more of apass through then a router. Anyone have any ideas I can try... the main port I need to open is 3074 tcp/udp for xbl.
I'm thinking is there is another port besides 3074 that is open that I can forward 3074 too.
Thanks

Edit: C'mon.. someone must have an idea at least?!!.... I help the community when I can, now I need to community to help me!!
Question: USB Wifi - how do you get it to work??
=================================================
I just tried the newest Android RemixOS as of Jan 25 2017. I read some of what you all have here and I was very impressed with your knowledge, however I have no idea what some of this stuff means even though I can regedit.exe and toss code around in C# and VB.NET and use Framework like a boss. Meaning, if I had the exact steps to fix my problem that would be GREAT!
* My problem, I only have a USB Wifi, my USB keboard and mouse work fine but RemixOS Marshmello will not work together. It just shows the Wifi off and when I click the toggle button to turn it on it just scans. Advanced under Wifi has nothing I can work with.
I heard that the problem -used- to be that USB was not supported at all but my keyboard and mouse work. So is there anything I can do to make the USB Wifi work, I have no internal Wifi for this computer -or- is that the best solution, just get an internal Wifi board that supports 2.4Ghz (which I read somewhere was the other problem, only 2.4Ghz is supported). Also I have no access to my Landlords Wifi so I am unable to play around with it.
Follow up Question: What is rooting and why is it better and why doesn't RemixOS just make everything rooted (since it sounds better and everyone wants RemixOs this way)? Rooted sounds to me like its, "written in stone" but it sounds like it makes it so people can get access to things?
** I already installed RemixOS Jan 2017 version if I have to Root do I uninstall RemixOS first, if so how do you install it from your PC if it made your system into a dual boot?
** Or do you all mean uninstall RemixOS then edit the ISO and put the mentioned code for init() into the init.sh file? is that the Trick?
*** Additionally for anyone that doesn't understand what I said above cuz I am sure I am clear as Mud on my questions. My Wifi is a stick, that is attached to a USB cord that then goes into the Back of my computer into a USB 3.0 port. I have no internal Wifi board and the motherboard is 6 years old and doesn't have much integreated into it except sound, maybe grafx VGA but I installed a RX 780 for a good graphics card.
*** I also forgot to mention it dual boots just fine, just no internet. Thx!
same here, im using TL-WN723N_V3 and wifi always keep searching.

Generally, wifi adapter connected using USB should work. It maybe a problem with particular adapter type not having driver in kernel or something like that. You can check output of "dmesg" command if it says something about the adapter. For example I'm using quite cheap usb wifi adapter Tenda (W311U+) and it works directly without any intervention.

here my dmesg,
OK so I have an incredible problem and I swear I'm not bs you guys, I'm not a troll, it's true.
So, a few weeks ago I bought a Meecol M8S Pro (Amlogic S912, Android 7.1, ARM Cortex A53, 3GB RAM) from Gearbest. The box itself is all right, but it causes a problem I never seen in my life and I never thought it would be possible for any device to do.
Basically, when I turn on the android box, as soon goes in to home screen, right after the splash / intro "Meecol", it messes my Fastweb modem and all my devices can't connect to internet!
They see my WiFi but it's a " Internet but no connection". As u can see from the picture attached, LEDs on my modem goes red, showing some problems. Only turning off the box and rebooting the modem fixes the problem for all the devices. The most incredible thing is that modem "goes crazy" even BEFORE the box actually connects to his WiFi. In those seconds the box goes into home screen and is stll searching WiFi , I can already see my modem is already messed up! Note that if I keep all my devices turned on (the android box too) and THEN reboot / turn on my modem, everything is OK and they all connect, but obviously this is no solution to reboot my modem every time...
I can only assume is some problem related to IP addresses or something, I went in to settings but everything seems all right. What could it be? And how the hell a single android device can mess a modem and connection for all devices?!?!
Change from DHCP settings to manually assigned IP addresses.

Do u mean Settings > WiFi > -my network properties- > Advanced Options > IP > I have to switch from DHCP to Static? What parameters do I have to set? I see IP Address, Gateway, DNS1, DNS 2...
By the way, in the attachment you can see from my modem settings, how i see all my devices when leds on moden are red, "Internet without connection" for all devices
- The Android Box
- My Notebook
- My Philips smart tv
- One Chromecast in the kitchen
- My Nexus 5
There are plenty of tutorials showing how assign static IP addresses on a device.
Since it is slightly different for all in the menu I can't give you specific advice on that bit.
Your router offers an IP range for your devices and you have to assign a unique IP to every device that connects.
E.G.: Router home page is on 192.168.0.1
Set IP range in the router is 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.0.255
Then every device needs and IP within this range, the default gateway is your routers IP.
DNS use Google's default 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

I see...can I just set static IP for the android box and keep DHCP for all the rest? Or do I have to change to Static for all of them?
P.S. Nevermind, I figured out...OK, I'll do some tests...
Best to do it for all devices.
How did your test go?
I assume all working as expected now?

Still testing...first time I set IP static, right after that, at the first boot, modem went crazy again...but just once. After that time, everything is OK. So, still testing...
OK a little update. Basically the IP static thing it was working...randomly. Sometimes working, sometimes no, sometimes it didn't make any difference.
But I just found out something very odd. If I forget my WiFi password on the android box and I turn it on (so basically it won't even try to connect, because it doesn't know the password anymore...like a new network)...the router still goes crazy! How the hell is this possible???
P.s. as u can see, the WiFi's android box is not even turned on!
I don't know your router but it could be a safety feature.
Some turn the WiFi off if there were too many unauthorised access attempts.
As the box has dual wifi it might be that it tries to connect on both frequencies at the same time.
In case your router is dual band too try to turn off one band and see if that helps.

U didnt get the point. Read carefully my previous post. Wifi's android box is OFF! It doesn't even TRY to connect to my network! Basically , being turned on near the router is enough! I know it sounds absurd, but that's what happens. See the video. What kind of impulse - emp - vodoo waves this thing have?!?!
You are right, I missed that bit, sorry.
But it might explain the problem!
Just for fun: Place the box in a big tin can or small metal bucket so the metal hields it into the direction of your router.
If the router performs fine now then you found the culprit named interference.
Always had it the other way around though, wiFi devices for example messing with my DVB-T receivers...
In your case I see two possible culprits: The power supply and the box itself.
For the power supply you could try if the box works (for a test only) by using a USB cable to power it.
If shielding the box helps then we might have to find out what causes the interference or find a way to shield the box without buckets and cans.

OK, don't bother that, I just found out something potentially important. I tried every possible solution and combination possible, thinking if its not wifi or Bluetooth interference, I thought "...uhm even of its not connected to wifi or Bluetooth to anything, it is connect trough HDMI to my TV...and my TV is indeed connected to my network (Philips smart TV)...could it be...?"...
I WAS RIGHT. If I turn on the android box NOT connected to TV, router is OK...as soon as I connect the HDMI cable, boom, it all goes to **** again.
Remember, android box's wifi and Bluetooth are always OFF.
solution?
Check HDMI settings on box and TV.
I don't have a big- or smart enough TV...
But if the box can control the TV over HDMI, or the other way around, you might get troubles if something is not working 100%.
I doubt the cable itself will be the problem as these are usally shielded and working in a totally different frequency range but if you have a spare cable try it too.
Friend of mine has similar problem with his noname 60" tv when he uses the tablet for Netflix.
For some reason we still can't figure out TV and tablet try to sync the Wifi - for a lack of explaining it better.
No matter what the TV is set to, once Netflix is started to stream on the TV a different protocol is used and no Wifi works anymore.
The router though does not turn into a xmas tree...
If you can set all to basic HDMI, no CEC or automaic stuff like switching the TV on when the box gives signal.
Also double check that all your devices use assigned and unique IP addresses - only too often DHCP is a culprit by giving out addresses already used by other devices in your network.
Edit:
Bit old but just one of the many websites that point to problems on Phillips TV's.
https://threatpost.com/wifi-bug-plagues-philips-internet-enabled-tvs-2/105134/
Wifi seems only to work properly if the router is not invisible and other WiFi problems are not fixed for years by the manufacturer.
TV might be smart, Phillips certainly is not LOL
OK, tried other milions of combinations and finally I found the "problem" even if its even more absurd.
First of all, I have to say also my PC desktop (not even turned on lol!) is connected to my TV. That's it: if those 2 (android box and PC) are connected to tv by HDMI, if I turn on the android box, my router goes Christmas. So what I did:
- If it's an IP address problem (trough HDMI?!?!), I tried to just disconnect the Ethernet cable in the back of the PC: still Christmas!
- so I tried to COMPLETELY turning off the PC on the back, with the master power button: still Christmas! WHAT THE HELL?!?! IMPOSSIBLE!
- At this point I just tried to keep the HDMI cable plugged to nothing. Literally just one end to the TV and the other end disconnected from the PC.
FIX IT! LOOOOOOL
SERIOUSLY? ONE DAMN HDMI CABLE?
By the way, I never had any problem with THAT cable, I don't remember where I bought it, but I've been playing my games on computer trough my TV for years...never a problem. By the way, is a mini HDMI - HDMI cable, knowing me, a cheap one from eBay...at the moment I do have other HDMI - HDMI cables, but no other mini HDMI, this is the only one I ever got. Tomorrow I'm gonna buy another one, but in the meantime...what the hell is going on? Lol
Well, at least you found the source of the problem....
