Help guys.
I've gout upgraded to windows 8 long ago. Before, it is working normally in windows 7 even the driver is outdated and I've got faster data speed. When I decide to move on to 8, I've try it to tether and its look fine but after that, the network transfer getting slow. My phone's download speed is more faster than my pc.
I try to find more options for that like updating samsung ndis driver and installing ms remote ndis driver, but no work.
please help me.

- Ive been trying to use the built in wifi tether and usb tether and neither work.
- I'm able to connect to the wireless AP but i cannot get an IP address
- Ive tried PDANet and that works, so i can only assume other third party ones will also work.
- I have an HTC Desire. Ive tried using OpenDesire (many, many different revisions) and Oxygen. Both by AdamG, but i doubt it makes a difference.
- I can tether with the built in Froyo tether function on a macbook pro. Which means the problem is with Windows 7!
Am i missing a step?
A couple times to get it to work properly on my Droid, I had to run a command prompt as admin and force an IP renew for my internet to connect/work.
using Wireless tether for root I was able to use my internet from the 3g on a windows 7 laptop (incurred a HUGE bill from Vodafone UK, they know I didn't use my phone to browse and charged me) but it worked.
...I cant believe doing a release renew worked lmao
thanks!
No issue on stock Nexus
I use Wi-Fi tethering almost every day; it works even better than USB tethering with my old Nokia phone. I have a stock HTC Desire as designated in my signature and a Sony VAIO with Windows 7 Professional x64. Tethering to an iPad also works great.
PDANet only does USB and Bluetooth as far as I can remember. Anyhow, I think the fact that you can't USB tether points to a Windows driver issue. Strangely enough, I've had driver issues myself - then I realized that I don't need USB. I just use an FTP and Wi-Fi tethering works as expected anyway.
Useing Wi-Fi tethering every day & USB tethering once in a while with no issues. It's my Nexus FRG83D to Windows 7 Home Premium x64. Sounds like your PC drivers...
I already fixed it. Thanks.
but icant do it how it works? <-- karşıyaka rent a car www.izmirrentacarrental.com/karsiyaka-oto-kiralama.html rent a car'dan kiralayın
Well I did some research on Google, and the solution can't be to just get a new wireless card.
I just installed Windows 8 Professional, and I'm running a Dell XPS M1530 (2.1Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Model, 4gb Ram)
I understand it is a little dated, but my WiFi is INCREDIBLY Slow.. Speedtest.net shows download speeds of no more then 2-3mbps, Windows 7 64 was giving me 20-25mbps, also all my Android Devices are showing the same as well.
This is a fresh install so there should be nothing using my WiFi on the system.
The Wifi Card that came with the PC is a
Dell Wireless 1505 Draft 802.11n WLAN Mini-Card by Broadcom
I can't find a solution, I downloaded a 80mb drivers from Broadcom that was for Windows 7 (No download for Windows 8) and it just failed, I don't understand where Windows 8 automatically got its driver from then. Right now I'm messing with settings to see if I can get my original speeds back, but I was hoping someone else who had a WiFi issue like this one could help me out?
======================SOLVED======================
Ok, if anyone is having this issue with ANY dell laptops that aren't giving correct speeds and you are running any of the following chipsets/models of wireless:
1390, 1490, 1500 series
Then you need to download the following from Dell's website
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/DriverDetails?driverId=GGMKP&fileId=2940568496
You will notice is says it is for users outside of the US and JAPAN, but it worked completely fine for me, and I am in the US (So is my laptop )
Anyway, uninstall the older drivers you have by going to Device Manager, and then just run this installer, everything should install fine and Wireless will be up and running with no problems!
Try running the driver installer in Win7 compatibility mode. Win8 is NT 6.2 (Win7 was 6.1) and should be backward-compatible for drivers. However, many driver installers will fail if they *think* they are on h wrong version.
Alternatively, make sure that 802.11n mode, or at least a or g mode, is enabled in the driver. It sounds like you're getting 802.11b speeds. I don't know *why* the driver would default to using b only, but it is an option on pretty much all WiFi drivers. You can find this setting by accessing the driver through the Device manager, or the Network Connections Adapter Properties info.
I will have to update my post. I tried all settings, there wasn't even anything for N, but I set it to B/G and just G, but I was getting the same speeds.
After much research I came across some fellas that were using the Dell Wireless 1510 (I'm on 1505) and they were having the same exact issue. One solution was to download a specific driver to get the wireless to function properly and extra the .INF files to install manually. Well I did that and I got IRQ errors in Windows 8 resulting in crashes. I looked more on Dell's website and found some drivers for the 1505, 1510 and a bunch of 40xx series if I remember correctly, as well as many others that are used to fix this issue, and they worked in Windows 8 without compatibility mode and installed fine.
I now have my 25/4 connection back on track!
I'm going to edit my post as soon as I get the files and correct links around, I know a lot of people may be having this issue with Dell Laptops and Dell Wireless hardware and just don't know it, I didn't notice until I started downloading files.

Hello!
As title i got this issue: the thethering over WiFi from my Nexus 4 does not work on my MacBook Air (mid '11 - Windows 8). I found this problem with all the stock releases of Androind, even with Paranoid and Cyanogenmod.
Now i think it's a computer side problem. Nevertheless, the USB and Bluetooth thetering work fine. I tried updating network card drivers,following the automatic troubleshooting of windows, safe mode with network, windows 7 (yeah i need windows, i don't care of MacOSX and i don't know if it works with it). Nothing seems working.
Have you any hint or advice to follow?
Hi xda-community,
I've got a Problem with USB Tethering with the Nexus 4:
Tethering itself works, but my PC is running so slow, taskbar is unusable.
Can someone Help? Im Clueless.
System:
Windows 8.1 Update 1
Intel i5
Nvidia GeForce GT240
12GB Ram
Smartphone:
Nexus 4 (mako) unbranded.
BL unlocked, Rooted.
Rom: Cyanogenmod CM11 (Latest Nightlies, but Problem is also on M6)

That's strange. Why would your tethering affect PC performance? Is it only when tethering or is it whenever your device is connected?
Does it happen on other computers or is it just that one? ..

Probably like many and me, you too could make activated Windows 8.1 through a TAP Driver activator. I don't why the very same thing occur to me, with multiple 8.1 PCs and tethering phone combos. Everything that works fine in Windows 7 and 8 messes in 8.1. As you said I too face extremely irresponsive Taskbar particularly the Wi-Fi Network selecting sidebar that doent even popup when USB Tether is done. A sec I disconnect everything happens one by one immediately. I can't even diagnosis the IP of connection due to this lag despite its extreme slow..

I activated Windows 8.1 with a valid licence.
PC is only slow when tethering is ENABLED, not if i just
connect phone to computer.
I managed to get it working that way:
Pull out Lan-cable, but keep activated the Lan
Network adapter. Activate Tethering.
It just works fluid, dont know why.

Yes PC's Network and sharing center goes wild only with tethering and not with normal MTP or PTP connections. Plus I tried to Pull out Lan-cable and yet keep activated the Lan Network adapter. Nothing happen new, same lag occur. If possible, I'll post a video to denote what happens in my PC soon..
I think it is a NDIS driver problem:

Hi,
Redmi Note 4G (HM NOTE 1LTE)
Android 4.4.4 KTU84P
MIUI 5.3.27 (latest weekly).
The phone succeeds connecting to the internet through the mobile network.
When setting a hotspot in the phone, I succeed to connect to the phone from my laptop, but there is no internet access in my laptop.
The strange thing is, that if I'm connecting the laptop to the phone through the USB cable, and turn tathering in the phone through USB, and connect to the phone to the WIFI network, the laptop succeeds to access the internet through the phone.
Once I set the phone to go to the internet through the mobile network, the laptop loses the access to the internet.
Thanks,
Ofir.
What OS do you use in the laptop? There are some old and well known issues with WiFi tethering and Windows (these can be solved). If you use Windows, I'm pretty sure that your phone is OK.

Windows 7. But I'm sure it is not the laptop, as I do succeed to use a hotspot with the same SIM when used from iPhone...
Also, as written, the hotspot is working when connected over USB and the phone connects over WIFI.
The issue I'm talking about exists specifically between Windows 7 and Android devices only. I faced that with some phones I had. Just google "wifi tethering android windows 7 not working" to find that there are many people with this problem (like this).
Just to be sure you could try to connect with another laptop running another system (I never had a problem with Linux - Ubuntu/Mint/Fedora/Gentoo). If you don't have one, you can download and burn a live CD.
Most suggestions are installing third party apps, you can try some free apps on Play Store which perhaps enable tethering in some more compatible way. I solved my issues with an init.d script but don't remember what it exactly did (changed some sysctl values every boot).
Or you could change ROM and see if problem is solved. Try Mokee, or MIUI v6.

Thanks!!!
What has solved it was installing a tathering rooted app. It seems that in this phone, even if my service provider allows me to use a hot spot, and although the phone interface allows me to activate the hot spot, I still had to root the machine and install such app to really enable it.
