Hey guys so ive tried ever wireless tether app under the sun and none ever seem to work for me.
Im running Cyan's 4.01, PdaNet the wired version works flawlessly for me when i tether it to my computer, however done of the wireless ones EVER work for me, ive tried both aNetshare and the "Wireless Tether for Root" App that is floating around on the forums here, neither have ever worked for me
i have absolutely no problems connecting my computer to my G1 via wifi when using these programs, however the connection is always Peer to Peer and Local only, never internet and it never works
any ideas?
What OS are you trying to tether with?
Ensure your wifi network settings have DHCP set....
ALSO if you're wifi uses a NON-Microsoft Wifi settings software (e.g. Intel's or Broadcom) disable it and use the microsoft stack.
Are you trying to connect via Ad-hoc? Also are you using the WEP encryption? Does it give you any errors or just doesn't seem to connect?
The computer im connecting with is running Vista.
Im not using any form of WEP encryption is 100% open, it has no problems connecting peer to peer but the internet is inaccesible via tethering, it connects fine with no errors but it states local only with no internet access
Also as another side note, i use a program called SwiFTP which runs FTP via wifi so i can transfer file to and from my computer and G1 wirelessly , however that system never works, whenever i go to enable it, it says "Error Opening port, check your network connection" and the program does not work, ive tried changing different ports, i used the default port 2121 and it cannot open it, i also tried other random ones like 23 etc and it can never open a port or seem to work
Are you trying to connect via Ad-Hoc?
No, im using "Wireless Tether for Root Users" app downloaded off this forum
I think that is the problem. When you try to connect to the G1 on your computer, you have to set up the computer to connect via Ad-Hoc, not on the G1.
Not sure of the entire setup process, but go to the control panel and click on set up network connections (or something along that line) somewhere in the options of connection types there should be Ad-Hoc. You will have to enter the network name and confiure the WEP encryption, but it is pretty easy.
You should be able to figure it out from there. Let me know if you have any more problems.
access control option
have you checked the access control settings? if this is enabled, you have to manually allow the machines internet connection.
Hey, I had to apk's fo rthis the signed_andtether_1_52-pre2.apk did not work. The file labeled Signed_andtetehr_1_52.apk works everytime.
Firewall?
Sure your Vista Firewall is on? If so FORCE it off and try again...
I go to Settings>Wireless & Networks.
Then I enable "Internet tethering"
But I have no signal on my computer.
The over all goal is to tether my phone to my computer then bridge it to my xbox. Thanks
Wireless Tether 2.0.5 should work

Does the Android Wifi Tether App for root users work for Sprint Moto X? I have unlimited data. I want to tether IPad Air.

I was able to make tethering work on my rooted Sprint Moto X, but had to follow the following steps:
1. Change "Device-Profile" to "Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)"
2. Enable "WiFi-driver reload"
3. Enable "Keep Alive - Connection Checking"
4. Enable "Routing Fix"
On your iPad, look for the access point named "wlan0"
I was unable to get wireless encryption working. I also was unable to change the SSID. No matter what SSID I enter, the access point always broadcasts as "wlan0".
Tethering has been extremely unstable for me. Tethering stops if the screen turns off, and it is extremely slow compared to what my data speeds are when not tethering. Running a speed test from my phone without tethering I get 20Mbps down. I get 0.5Mbps running a speed test from my laptop while tethered.

Thanks. Does anyone know why the download speed is slow when tethered to an iPad?

For Verizon, I use the wifi_tether_v3_4-experimental1.apk and set...
change device profile to galaxy nexus (cdma/lte)
check box: wifi-driver reload
check box: enabled routing fix
and I can change the SSID and use WPA encryption. Its been stable. to.
I was wondering if there is a way to use the phone as DUN modem to tether... this is not the same as the usb tether option. my old blackberry and flip phones were able to do so. the difference is that when using DUN the device connected to the phone is receiving the t-mobile IP address as opposed to a private ip address tether gives.. i want to be able to use the device as a backup for my home internet connection and dont want a double NAT situation.. also my router doesnt play well with the tether mode
Hi just wondering when I am using my phone to tether my computer to play games if I need to run a vpn on both my computer and my phone or just my computer or just my phone.
Okay so for anyone wondering or finding this in a search. You need to use a vpn installed on the computer and also on the phone to use tethering. I use PIA (private internet access) which is $40 for a year subscription.
This bypasses t-mobile's blocking. Also, I recommend using the native tethering program set to 5 ghz band for a stable connection without 2.4ghz interference.
