Default A bit of help with tethering! (please) [Q]

Hello,

i'm running my i9000 with JPC firmware (installed through KIES, not rooted) - very successfully I must add .. no crashes, and generally fast performance.

Today I tired using the Mobile AP functionality - I can connect my laptop to the mobile AP, I can ping the IP of the mobile AP, DNS resolution works, but pings do not come back / browsing does not work. When I ping something from CMD it gets as far as resolving the IP (hence DNS works) but nothing else.

Browsing on the mobile phone is fine, and connected through KIES over the USB cable, USB tethering works fine too (and very fast - on a par with ADSL)

Anyone can help?

cheers!

Try going into USB Debugging mode. And then try it.

Alternatively, Try EasyTether from the market, works flawlessly for me. You may have to download additional drivers for your computer for it to work.

USB tethering works fine (using it right now) .. the problem is with wifi (mobile ap) mode .. the AP mode works fine, I can connect the laptop to it, and even ping the IP the phone assigns itself. Even DNS is working, but there's no access to anything outside of the mobile phone.

I have worse situation, my laptop can detect both Wi Fi and USB tethering but can't connect internet. Since I don't have any answer yet. I re flash to my orginal stock JF4. Please let me know any solution for this, so I can move back to JPC as I found this firmware is faster and better than JF4
