Hello ladies and gents. First off, I'd like to apologize for breaking any forum rules as I post this. This is my first post, and I'm a little frustrated.
As the thread topic reads, I'm having trouble getting my moto droid to tether, specifically to my wifi xoom. I have also tried to search for the network on my psp, and it didn't show up there, so I know its not my xoom. Besides that proof, I've successfully connected my xoom to several wifi networks.
I have, obviously, already rooted my droid. I have flashed several roms, including CM6 and CM7, bugless beast, currently running axiom sixty6. I have run sholes, and I have run chevy's kernels, include ULV/LV .8, 1, and 1.1
All of these roms and kernels are great, but I have yet to get my tethering apps to actually tether. I've tried both wireless tether app and barnacle app.
I would REALLY appreciate help at this point. Googling has yielded no results, yet there are several youtube videos showing the motorola droid tethering apps working. Even just letting me know what rom/kernel you're running with successful tethering would help me out.
Thanks in advance!

this is an easy one... you should notice you can tether with any pc /mac /other OS, but not with an iphone/ipad, or android devices. this is because the motorola droid is not capable of true AP mode (access point) wireless tethering, but rather the droid can only do what is called ad-hoc tether [at least to the best of my knowledge]. if you fired up a laptop in the same room, i bet you would see the wireless tether/barnacle wireless, but it would be an adhoc (peer to peer ) wireless network. Sorry.
******** EDIT: news, see my next post below for info how to tether with BT to the xoom! ****
experience: rooted my sister's moto droid. They were able to use the wifi to get internet on her mac computer, and not sure about a PSP but his sony PS3 could not access the motodroid wifi. I personally use an HTC Incredible which allows for AP mode tethering in the recent versions of wireless tether.
apparently there is a way!
i found this guide to setup xoom tethering to the droid via BT!

Hello everybody, I already know that you talked several times about this topic... anyway the posts I found, didn't help me to get the rid of this issue.
I have a Kindle fire hd 7", sw version 7.2.2 and I'd like to exploit the 3G connection on my Nokia C6-00. There, I installed a free sw that turn my phone into a wifi hotspot (it's called joikuspot)... anyway the kindle is not able to hook that connection. For those that don't know what JoikuSpot does... it just creates an adhoc connection to rely on.
On the Kindle, I tried to install the ZT-180 app... anyway after having configured SSID/WEP and switching over the adhoc mode... the device shows that the wifi connection selected is out of range... something not true since with another tablet I tested that adhoc connectivity and worked like a charm! So far I assume that's a problem tied with the kindle fire's configuration.
How can I fix that?
Cheers

I am also having trouble connecting to an ad-hoc connection using my Kindle Fire. I have also tried with ZT-180, but get an issue during installation.
Device is Kindle Fire HD 7" 7.2.3 rooted.
When I open ZT180 (after installing it from GooglePlay), I get the message:
"Error: At least one of the shell commands needed for this application to work is not available. The first not found command was: Is
A possible solution might be to update BusyBox.
The application cannot continue,."
Anyone have any experience with this?
Havent tried any of that, but, did you try upgrading busybox?

i plan on using wifi tether. i have a window moblie 6.5 phone. its unlocked and i use wifi router. and i tried the apps you mentioned. they didnt work. any other ideas?
Trying to talk a friend's father-in-law through a root remotely over skype. Got a factory cable into his hands and he flew through the process with the KFHD System.img Restore Tool (he tried on his own and wound up stuck in the orange boot loop mode, so SR Tool to the rescue!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951254
Everything worked out, but when they rebooted the Kindle Fire HD, the "On" option for wireless in settings grayed out.
He has access to Kindle Fire First Aid - how do I get wireless back? Also, can anyone enlighten me on why this setting **** the bed? Was it an Amazon OTA /diehackerdie/ update or did he do a misstep somewhere along the way that I didn't hear over skype?
Any help would be superappreciated
