    ICS Connection Problems. iOS Devices cannot connect?


    So I am having an issue with ICS. I set everything up correctly and it does say that the network I am sharing does have internet access. In fact I had it working for about 2 hours yesterday, and then it decided to stop working... When I go to an iOS device and I connect to it, it does say it's connected. But two issues. The wifi signal isn't at the top left corner and the internet doesn't work, even when on the computer it says it has internet acccess. I have no idea what's wrong I have tried so many things. If you need any more information let me know. Thanks!

    That isn't what I'm looking for... But thank you. I don't want to share files I want to share my internet connection as wifi. Besides were all on apple devices, that seems like an android only thing.

    EDIT: I did a diagnostic test... Not sure if it helps but it gave me a couple errors. Also, the sharing wifi name is "Lopez".

    Yes that is only for android when you wrote ICS i assumed it was the OS Ice cream Sandwhich
    what you are trying to do is turn your device into a hot spot you might have to do manual inputs that is the best way i found to make my phone turn into a wifi for surrounding devices

    Has anything else connected to the wireless ICS connection?

    How hard you connecting to the router/modem or w/e you use.
