Possible To Use A Wireless Router And IPhone Tethering At The Same Time?

Jun 16, 2011

I use a tethered iPhone to access the Internet. We live outside of the DSL service area so this is really the only high speed internet connection I have available.Unfortunately the "wireless hotspot" feature of the phone isn't very consistent. I can get all of my computers to connect to my phone this way, but the connection is constantly dropping, and I'm always having to reboot the phone to get the computers to pick it up again. The most reliable way to use the tethering is to just plug the phone in to whichever computer I happen to be using. This does create a problem, though. If I want to print to the network computer or access a file off of one of the other computers I have to manually connect to the wireless router, because that's the only way the computers can talk to each other. In the meantime, though, I can't use the internet because my computer thinks it needs to try to connect to the internet through the wireless router, and when it can't find the internet that way it just tells me there's no connection. Nevermind that my phone is still plugged in, for some reason it doesn't want to use that connection if it can see the router.

D-Link DIR-655 :: IPhone 5 Won't Auto Connect / Have To Enter Password Each Time

Apr 14, 2013

I set up a DIR-655 router for a friend 4 years ago and it's worked reliably with all of their equipment since. They have wireless printers, iMacs, pc laptops and iPhone 4S's, all connecting without any problems.  Recently, they got an iPhone5 and it will not connect to their home wireless automatically, they have to re-enter the password each time.  They've tested their iPhone 5 on other networks and they do not have to re-enter the password.  Apple and ATT are blaming the router.  I do not live near them and I'm going to have to facilitate them remotely. At this point, I believe their router is configured with WPA2, but I can't be sure.  Which configuration will work with the iPhone 5, as well as their other, older, devices that have worked for 4 years

Ad Hoc Tethering In The Network

Jan 21, 2013

I have seen examples to set up ad hoc so m laptop can host wireless for android and wifiCam however i have routerA, RouterB, and pocket stick.when connected to routerA my laptop connects to RouterA which goes to network, so does android,RouterB has no WAN to connect to so i use laptop to pocket stick, which is where i need ad hoc to connect android to pocket stick, I dont want to use android sim network. and cam needs to have local,I wonder is there a way to make my laptop smart so it hosts hoc by default and maybe feeds WAN to RouterB, unless it is able to find RouterA ?

Tethering Using My Android Phone?

Apr 2, 2013

Unfortunately, despite my best efforts to find a better alternative, where I live my only option for unlimited internet with any speed whatsoever is to tether my DROID DNA phone to my computer using the app PdaNet. I've been doing this for over a year now without any problems.I have an unlimited data plan through Verizon and although I only have 3G at my house, it is still far better than anything else I've found.

Recently I started playing the online game World of Warcraft. Obviously the speed isn't ideal, but it worked perfectly fine for about 3 weeks. One night the game started to get really slow and after a minute or two would freeze up entirely. When this happened, I would have an error message on my phone at the PdaNet screen that read "Communication with client has been broken." Despite restarting things, this continued to happen. I assumed that it was because the weather was bad outside, but the problem didn't go away the next day. When I noticed that my internet speed when browsing the web had slowed down as well I figured that although I supposedly have unlimited data, that Verizon must have slowed me down for crossing over a certain download barrier. I've heard that they do this.

So this went on for the next week until the first of the month when my data was reset through Verizon. Well I'm still having the same issue when trying to play the game. It will work alright for anywhere from 30 seconds to 10 minutes, and then all of a sudden start to get slower and slower until it freezes completely and I have the "Communication with client has been broken" error screen on my phone. I'm not sure if my internet speed in general is back to normal or not because I haven't spent enough time online to know for sure, but at the moment it seems to be.

Windows Xp And Wifi Tethering?

Jan 26, 2011

My friend has a laptop with windows xp and is trying to access the Internet via wifi tethering with his phone. The laptop will connect to the network created by the tethering app and will let me access the net for about 5 - 10 mins. Then without warning I can't browse websites or download files but am still connected to the network. I can connect to the network with another laptop for as long as I want and the net works fine. It is a peer to peer network.

If I tether my computer to my phone and use the 3G networks IP address, trace the IP to my phone number if they really wanted to? Or am I completely anonymous because whatever tower I'm connected to, thats the designated IP for that tower and there could be dozens of people on that tower's IP as well?

Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT54GL - IPhone 4G Will Not Connect?

Jul 13, 2012

I'm using a WRT54GL(4.30.14) Router with a Charter Cable Modem running 5 computers on the network with 1 being wired and the rest are wireless. When my family comes over they can connect with their iPads and laptops but for some reason I can not get this iPhone 4G to connect. We put in the password and it says unable to connect. Are there any special settings that need to be made to the router to let the IPhone connect?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Can't Connect To WRT54G With IPhone

Dec 30, 2012

All networking had been working great until recent power failure.  Then laptops failed to connect, found my router WRT54G had become insecure. I open the router using "admin", reset Wireless Security and reset  my password. Wireless laptops, wireless camera now works fine but now iPhone will not connect? I have double checked the password, it is the same as the router. Is there something else in the router that needs changing for the iPhone connection?

When I first set up my router, I used the same user name and pw as I had for my old router and my iPhone connect just fine. I decided to use the guest network after one of my sons friends was sitting outside one morning using my network. I told the friend the pw for the guest and changed the pw for my network and created an key on a thumb drive. Now I cannot connect my iphone. When I try to use guest is seems to work ok, but I want to use my network. I chose my network on my iphone and it simply says unable to connect. That is the only info/choice I am given.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 IPhone Incompatibility?

Mar 15, 2011

I recently purchased an E4200, but I am experiencing slow/inconsistent  performance and connection problems with iPhone 3G, 3GS and 4. The iPhones are running the latest firmware 4.3. The E4200 has also been updated to the latest firmware 1.0.01 build 10. I do not experience these problems with various laptops, and I did not experience them with a previous Cisco router WRT610N, nor with a D-link DIR825 in another location. The security is set to WPA2 Personal and all the other settings are the same from the prior router. If I disable the security, I do not experience the connection problems, but still experience the slow performance. If I switch back to the WRT610N, I do not experience any problems. this a E4200 firmware issue yet to be resolved?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Iphone 5 Wifi Connectivity With Wrt54g

Dec 1, 2012

I am having problems with connectivity and my iPhone 5. The Wi-Fi is okay in some parts of my home network, however in others it is abysmmal. When I bring my computer to the places where the iPhone has problems with signal strength/staying connected the computers have full or almost full strength and no problems. I upgraded firmware for the router, spoke with applecare, have reset the router multiple times, and have been trying different channels. I had the phone in with the Apple store where they concluded nothing seems wrong with the hardware. The phone doesn't seem to have problems like this on other wifi networks I have tried. Using a speed test on the iPhone at home in the low connectivity areas results in horrendously poor latency numbers.
