what's the deal with wifi direct on the N7 and how do i use it with the GNexus ? can anyone explain please,it seems i cannot find any info in regard!!
thanx
Edit: ignore this answer ,I was thinking of something else... Apologies :-\
Wifi direct connects to your router by using only the button. It's not for tethering you gnex to n7.

So i bought this tv today, and in every review it says it has DLNA, but my SGS II cant find my tv in allshare. If you gotta do something with the monitor to turn it on somewhere, i cant find it anywhere. Need quick help please. Thanks.

Are they both connected to your home wifi network?
If the TV has DLNA make sure its connected to the router via a Ethernet Cable.
If it has Wifi make sure its using the same access point as your Galaxy S2.
Didnt know it has to be connected to my router. Ill test soon with an ethernet cable. THANKS GUYS!
EDIT: Didnt find any Ethernet inputs, but in the user manual it shows a picture that looks like it has wireless connection, but i cant find out how to connect to the router. :/

Hi everyone,
Does anyone have heard about a fix for the N7 to be able to recognize adhoc networks ?
I can't even see the signal tethered from my android phone through barnacle.
Thanks in advance.

Just tried using barnacle after reading your post and it won't work from phone either. Haven't looked into this yet but I'm sure we just need to change the WPA supplement, possibly some custom Roms have this "fixed" but being this is the first time I've tried I haven't looked into it
when I get some free time I'll see what I can do and post back, otherwise hopefully someone else can chime in and let us know what's up

I have ever since I got my Nexus 7 I have also have this problem with my Transformer Prime where i try to download something but 99 percent of the time it fails, so I have to go down in the download app and hit retry repeatedly until it downloads correctly
Does anyone know a 6 to this or is it just me
Does anyone know a fix to this

Have you tried this on different wifi networks? It sounds like your connection is probably not reliable.

go to the devices main setting, apps, all, download manager.. now delete the data. now go ahead and download something, this should fix it.
If you close download manager and browser in the multitask/ app switcher thing it fails

sounds like your home internet connection, do you have the same problems at other locations?
Yes I run 50 mb/s home and tether from sprint

Switching to WEP may solve it
I'd really like to help but i don't have much time right now. But i can give you something to start.
1. I'm not sure but N7 may not have all wi-fi modes because of production costs. Wi-fi b/g is there but no a/n. Maybe it has something to do with this. Your router could be broadcasting on a or n or something. Actually i'm not good at this. I'm just trying to give you some leads.
2. Setting your wi-fi password to WPA could cause some problems on some devices, not only N7. I've seen it on laptops, phones, some unimportant wi-fi enabled devices. Maybe if you could set it to WEP, your download problems could be solved. I don't have a N7 but my download problems solved everytime i switched to WEP.
USB teher- doesn't function at all. No data ever transferred
Wifi- connects but doesn't transfer any data like USB
Bt- works but, data is slow ~20KB/sec
This is disappointing since I got MB regularly on my g1 despite the older radio... I'm going you guys have done experience with jelly bean and tethering.

Same here. I have problems with WiFi tethering using the stock option. I didn't try apps cause, last time I tried them (other android), they killed the battery.
Not a fan of Bluetooth, I expect it to have a bandwidth limitation, which would answer your question.
But we both share the need for wifi-based help
So I'd love some help too
TIA

Now BT tether has reached 170KB/sec which seems like the max. Though I would prefer at least 1MB.

Just got my s4 and I am having a issues with my wifi. When I connect I can use it for about 5 min then it stops downloading. The icon on my phone shows that it is uploading but I don't think it is. Anyone else having wifi issues? I know it's not my wife because my ipad and all my other wifi devices work just fine. I have dlink dir 655 wireless N router and I am not rooted.

Hah, "Wife issues."
But so far, I haven't had any WiFi issues. Mine has stayed connected consistently.
Yea sorry bout that didn't notice that my phone doesn't know what wifi is haha. I don't know what's going on with my phone. It just stops downloading then like 5 min later it starts then stops again.

does it keep disconnecting & reconnecting?
Yes, it locks up showing that it is stuck uploading then I have to wait a minute or 2 for it to disconnect then reconnect.

I also have the dir 655 router and have the same issues connecting. After searching this issue, it appears that this router has compatibility problems with Samsung phones. I have connected with no problems to AT&T's hotspot, my wifi at work, the wifi at my car dealer when getting service. I only have problems when I'm at home with the Dlink. I've tried WPA with TKIP, WEP, and no encryption at all and it will constantly lose connection no matter what I do.
My work uses an ASUS router with WPA2 and AES and I am connected all day so I went out and ordered one. Hoping that when it arrives on Tuesday that I will have no more problems connecting.

Sorry about the wrong thread it was late last night and wasn't paying attention, also why the title of the post was wife issues haha. Good to know it is not my phone that isn't working . I have another wireless router I am going to try out here in a bit and see if my dir655 was the culprit. Thanks for the heads up!

Just set up a netgear router I had as a spare and no problems now! Hopefully someone can find a fix for the dir 655, such a good wireless AP! Thanks again Will822!
