Do you have the security on "WPA" set with a password to "secure" your foxfi hotspot???...See if that might be your issue!!!
It does the same thing to my Bionic, I just leave the "WPA" setting off!
I believe When you get out of range and try to reconnect, it needs to transmit/ authorize the pass code again! That's why your needing to keep turning it off and on again! :) Just a hunch!??

I gave up on fox fi. I just read that the new version of wifi tether is working again. After some playing around with it, I did get it working.
Fox fi worked ok for me most of the time, but sometimes it would basically drop the connection and I'd have to toggle airplane mode on and off. I never received any notifications asking if I want to keep the connection alive or not. It would just randomly disconnect even when I was actually using it. I could be in the middle of a YouTube video or downloading something and it would just kill the connection and my phone would say "no networks available. Do you wish to switch to global mode?"
It's a good app for the most part and I really liked that you could proxy serve to try and hide the fact that you're tethering, but I just had too many bad experiences with it to keep using it.
