Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Which device (manufacturer, type)?

Motorola Droid 2

Which firmware is installed?

Android 2.4.20.A955

What version of wireless tether are you using?
3.1.beta4 - does NOT work
2.0.7 - works GREAT

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Installing beta
2. Attempting to run tether
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I turn on the wifi tether and it says it is working and up but it i can NOT 
find it on any of my devices.  Like it is not broadcasting.  However with the 
2.0.7 version i CAN see it the minute it turns on!

Please provide any additional information below.

I tried using specified settings for "Droid 2" and also left the settings on 
"Auto" and neither worked. However the old version works PERFECT right "out of 
the box". Fantastic software by the way!!! Much faster online then I had ever 
anticipated! If you have some suggestions on settings please let me know.

I'm having the same problem on a Droid 2 Global, using Fission 2.4.3.  I tried 
changing several settings, such as ad-hoc vs. master, to no effect.  (Actually, 
ad-hoc reported an error).

As with the reporter, 2.0.7 version works perfectly for me.

I've attached a log (via alogcat) of starting WiFi Tether, and for comparison a 
log of starting the older Wireless Tether.

I need some additional info for debugging ...

1) Install the latest beta.
2) Start/stop tethering (via gui) at least once.
3) Connect to your phone via adb
   adb shell
4) Change directory ...
   cd /data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin
5) Start from tether from command-line:
   ./tether start
6) You will see some additional output. Please post it here.

And ...

Please update the generated config-file (start/stop tethering at least once to 
make sure the file was updated) - it's located ... 
/data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/conf/tether.conf

Thanks.

I have the same problem (droid 2 froyo 2.3). I turn it on with settings for 
droid 2 and nothing can detect the tether. I've tried all beta and the new 
download and still nothing. The 2.0.7 also works the best for me right now.

Same issue here. I'm running gingerbread on the Droid 2 Global and heard the 
new betas get around Verizon's tether detection. It isn't transmitting with the 
betas though and only transmits with my 2.0.7 version...which directs me to 
verizon's tethering page.

The beta11 is working for mine ! Is it working for everyone?

I'm posting this from my D2G tethered to a Win7 laptop, working for me, hooray!

FWIW, I installed beta 11 fresh (had previously uninstalled it, so no settings 
carried over), and the only settings I changed were the SSID name and enabling 
encryption.

Access control does not seem to work ... Once I add my laptop to the access 
control list, the next time I enable tethering, I get an error, but all it says 
in "show log" is that it failed to enable access control.

Running "tether start" through a shell, the final bit of startup is what seems 
to fail:

...tether/bin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -s 192.168.2.0/24 -j DROP
getsockopt for multiport...<x4>
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

Running that iptables command manually doesn't produce any errors, however 
running the iptables command used to whitelist a mac address (iptables -t nat 
-I PREROUTING -m mac --mac-source xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -j ACCEPT) does fail with 
that iptables error.
