以编程方式禁用android wifi热点的最佳方法是什么？

Question

I created a test wifi hotspot app. The app essentially enables and disables wifi hotspot functionality for the android platform(tested from 2.3 to 4.1).

I've noticed two issues with the app that I'm hoping to get some help with.

1)I'm unable to stop the wifi hotspot if the hotspot has been enabled for more than 30 minutes(average timing). I'm able to stop the hotspot just fine if it hasn't been started for very long. I use the following code to stop:

    // Disable wifi hotspot
private static void stopAccessPoint() {
    try
    {
        Method[] wmMethods = wifi.getClass().getDeclaredMethods();

        for (Method method : wmMethods) {
            if (method.getName().equals("setWifiApEnabled")) {
                try {
                    method.invoke(wifi, null, false);
                } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        }
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
        Log.d(TAG, errorStoppingHotspotMessage);

    }

2)The wifi hotspot loses connectivity to the internet after being in use for long periods of time. I noticed that it occurs more frequently when in use around other wireless networks, so I thought maybe it could be due to interference.

I'm able to start the wifi hotspot just fine with no issues at any given time. All research pointed me to the above code that I'm already using for disabling the hotspot.

Have any of you guys seen these issues before? It's really hard to test the issues considering the amount of time it takes for the issues to occur.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

1) You might want to change your e.printStackTrace(); into actual Logging, I use the same code and it works fine no matter how long I wait for it.

2) Noticed the same, not sure which it relates too, however if there's "constant" traffic, it never drops. Sometimes I have to disable the hotspot and reenable it quickly to fix this, but sometimes it's my data plan that drops too... Maybe the operator doesn't want us to hotspot their data plan?
