Quick connects and disconnects while mobile hotspoting - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all. I setup WiFi tether via the xposed method. When I try to connect my PS4 or android tablet they connect sometimes. When they do connect they do for a split second and then disconnect. This continues for awhile until it completely drops. Any ideas?

Using internet on Mini s

I've just managed to setup my wireless conection on the mini s and connected up to internet explorer.
When i was messing about the other day and couldn't get wireless working everytime i opened up IE it tried to connect via GPRS but failed (i don't want to connect through anything that i have to pay for!!)
Anyway today i reset machine, setup as corporate and played with my router settings and its connected upto wireless. Now i've gone into IE and it connected up to the webpage straight away.
Question is, it just connected straight in, so i want to make sure that i'm not on GPRS or anything, how do i do that?
Cheers
Sorry I'm a new user and have yet to connect to my wireless network but I thought you could just turn on flight mode and connect using just the pc side of the phone???
I think I have worked it out now. I am typing on the mini s now, great piece of kit! I have noticed that if you are on gprs (or its trying to connect through that) then a G appears where the connection icon is. that means I am happy because my wireless connection is working every time now and its not connecting through gprs!

8525 Internet via Wi-Fi?

I cannot for the life of me find any clear-cut instructions on how to setup the 8525 to use Wi-Fi for Internet instead of GPRS/3G if a Wi-Fi connection has been established. I've been able to connect to my Wi-Fi router but when I try to go to a website it still tries to connect to GPRS/Edge/3G! Help!
When I want to connect to wifi, I use connection manager to connect to wifi, then disconnect, and then reconnect, and for some reason this works.
Otherwise I get the same problem as you do.
Hope this works for you.

Wifi wont tether with bluetooth enabled

Hi Folks,
Probably unusual what I'm trying to do, but I use my galaxy nexus as a portable wifi hotspot when out of wifi range so i have a data connection on my nexus 7. The nexus 7 usually connects no problem to the phone but it wont connect if i have a the phone paired with the tablet using bluetooth. I use the bluetooh pairing to run tablet talk when not running both on the same wifi. Disabling bluetooth allows the tablet to connect to the phone via wifi. Im on stock jellybean on both devices. The 7 is rooted. The other option is to use a bluetooth tether for internet and not bother with the wifi but that doesnt seem to work all the time either. The tablet looses internet connection when tethered via bluetooth
Anyone else have same issues?

How disable wifi

I have an Nvidia Shield, about 5 years old. Version 10.40.33
I was using wifi to connect. I recently started using Wired ethernet.
Whenever I start it, it uses WiFi. Switching to ethernet is cumbersome for some reason.
How can I disable wifi on this device?
Thanks
Why don't you make it "forget" your WiFi network.
