Let's get the usual suspect out of the equation: The client. What is it? Is it set to get IP by DHCP?

tethering not working?

Is it just me or does the tethering hot spot not working for ZenFone 550ml?
I can turn it one fine and ppl see my name but they just can't use the data from my phone
Same problem. Fine a suggested solution but not work for me.
Hi
I have the same problem.
Even I have factory reset my Zenfone 2, the personal hotspot still does not work just by one single reboot/restart without modifying any system file, personal backup data or apps update.
I found a person suggested on ASUS forum to disable the SIM2 and reboot. Per his claim, the personal hotspot works again.
I did pay a trial but my beloved zenfone 2 cellphone still rejects routing the mobile network connection for all connected wireless devices to my phone.
I have already reported to ASUS regarding this issue and I believe this is the firmware issue.
I remember that the same personal hotspot function worked before (maybe before 2 previous syustem updates).
If you find other solutions/suggestions, please post it here.

I have the same issue (latest WW firmware 2.15.40.13 - model 4GB/32GB/1.8Ghz).
Hotspot enabled, devices connect/authenticate but cannot access internet. The mobile data is working fine, as I can browse the web on the phone, but it does not route to devices connected via wifi hotspot.
interesting...
i guess we have to wait for the next update
this is not good.......

no issue with latest WW firmware 2.15.40.13 model 4GB/32GB/2.3Ghz)
Also you should have correct APN for tethering (ie APN Type : default,supl,dun) DUN is very important for connexion sharing. So check your APN and if necessary edit them accordly
how do you check your apn?
no i am on that same firmware but nothing is working

Go to settings-->More--> Mobile Networks --> Access Point Names --> (Choose your sim card) --> Access Point Names
i tried to change the apns but didn't work with tethering
i am not sure why it won't work

What does it show?? are you able to connect to internet on your phone... Can you check with your network carrier if you have used the correct apn??

i am able to use data in my phone before and after the change but just won't able to share data to other devices
I am experiencing the same issue on my 551ML. The workaround of disabling both sim card, then enabling only sim 1 and after activating wifi hotspot seems to work
oh man mine didn't work for the way you did it
turn off both sims and reactiveate sim 1 and turn on hotspot
maybe its the model, i have the 550ml
Same here, 551ML latest firmware. Messing around with sims doesn't work. Connects to tablet but no data is getting past the phone.

It can be a hardware prob...Check with different carrier's sim card and check if tethering is working with that one... Try contacting your service provider and ask them for apn and settings for zenfone 2... If nothing works try replacing ur device under warranty
This used to work before I went to the . 13 firmware.
I presume the next release may fix this and break something else.
Would settle for a decent battery life at the moment. Tethering isn't a major issue as I have a contract mifi unit I can use. I also presume tethering would fry the battery even quicker so I'm happy to avoid at the moment.

If u really want to use tethering u can anytime flash that rom...And for the battery if u r rooted use Greenify and delete bloatware from phone...It helps a lot....And use power saver feature on this phone... Asus really needs to do sumthing about battery backup..
No not rooted. I can't use a card payment system or a couple of TV apps if rooted.

U can anytime hide root from those apps...There is this app which lets you hide root from certain apps...I am not sure RootCloak works with Lollipop but u can give it a try...

How to Activate HD calling on T Mobile?

I have Just updated my phone to marshmallow hoping to get wi-fi calling but it still asks to activate advanced calling.
Is there any chance that i can bypass this to get wi-fi calling?
Also in case if i ask my friend to activate it using his SIM and later insert my T mobile sim will i still be able to use it?
Thanks in advance

Some people here have had to get Verizon to set HD calling up for them, especially if they've had it turned off. T-Mobile may be the same way.
If I recall, Verizon users were able to turn the feature on online.

Then I'm afraid you're stuck. It looks like HD calling is a prerequisite for wifi calling. Both, while sharing the same technical standards, are run by the carriers.

Wifi tethering method?

What's up,
Has anybody figured out a way to tether LTE data through our galaxy s7 actives without having to activate it through att? I have used fox Fi on previous devices as well as custom Roms and tweaks to get this feature working so I can use my unlimited data to its potential while on longs trips with a tablet. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

I think sidesync is your best best. It's worked on my s7 edge, note 7 and now s7 active. It's not wireless, but it does the job.
there is a way to do it using an att apn and then once the hotspot starts up, go back to the apn and then switch back to the original.
it worked back when i had the s7 active.

I will give it a try, where did you find the apn credentials?

**UPDATE** I have wifi tethering working via the root method as described in this method.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/help/samsung-galaxy-s7-active-root-t3473649
Once rooted you will have to install the Xposed framework, and activate the "X tether" module which can be found in the root thread. Once that has been activated, you will be able to use your phone as a wifi hotspot without activating the annoying ATT plan :good:
odd, as im in UK... (on three) using my Active, my mobile hotspot works with the inbuilt stuff from settings ! .. no problems whatso ever!?..
Yup I'm currently not rooted, I got into my settings, Connections Mobile Hotspot turn it on. I've never had to pay extra for it or anything it just works on my S7 Active and I use it a fair amount.

Is3mach, im in the UK on Three....
I have unlimited data but can't tether...
When you sign up for At&t unlimited data plan, they take your ability to tether. Will rooting allow me to make my phone a mobile hotspot while I'm still on an unlimited data plan? If so, could someone point me in the right direction please?

Tethering issue

When I activate my hotspot, I can connect other devices but they all display connect/no internet... Anyone having this issue. My sim works fine in my s8 and my leeco let pro 3 with no tethering issues.
I have the bnd l24 model
Fixed it... Was an apn setting that was off

Which one? Having the same problem.
The us variation... Only way I got it to work was to set the correct APN and restart every time you want to use tethering
I put my sim in my s8 and copied the apn settings...
Ok new "temp" fix I should say... Set the apn type to "default,dun"

I just bought honor 7x and I am facing issues with hotspot. I cannot connect my laptop with the hotspot. Actually its connecting but the it shows " no internet access" every time I connect. I cannot access the internet. I have tried every "Broadcast channel", but it still wont connect to the internet. I also copied the apn setting from my older phone, but still nothing. Is there a solution to this problem. Also sometimes it connects to the internet but again turns to "limited" by itself. Please help me solve the issue.

Question S22 hotspot workaround

Has anyone discovered a workaround for the message "to use mobile hotspot you will need to subscribe to a hotspot service"? I have unlimited data on this line and I would like to use it. Thanks a ton!

That will depend on your carrier. Have you tried the USB route?
Carrier is Verizon. Was hoping not to use USB. Any idea if root / unlocked android will fix the issue?
Try pda net. Some carriers in their infinite power to be an ass block it on the play store. But pda net devs don't give a **** and put it on their website.

do you have the play more/do more plan? The basic plan does not include hotspot. I am also on verizon and my hotspot works fine.

What about with T-Mobile? Ever since switching from Sprint SIM to T-Mobile SIM, adding ",dun" to APN doesn't work anymore. Currently using S8+ on Android 9, if that matters

I don't know about T-mobile. I'm on Verizon. I get 25GB of hotspot data with my plan.

Rooting won't help and it's probably not worth the effort. I've used PDANet back when I had my original Verizon unlimited plan. I could connect via USB.
I used to flash the U1 firmware to bypass this when I had a plan that didn't support mobile Hotspot. Before that I used PDAnet for usb tethering or even a different APN setting to prevent blocking.
