I did a search but couldn't really find the same problem.
I'm a new Mogul user and just upgraded from the 6700 (kitchen).
I'm on a SERO plan.
Well I upgraded to Nexvision's ROM and Radio 3.27. I verified that the GPS works and I can place and receive calls. I can also use Internet Explorer and Google Maps.
However, whenever I try to initiate Internet Sharing (I prefer BT but would settle for USB) I get a "Error Code 67" and some message about user name and password do not match. (I even tried PDAnet with the same result)
After that - Data for all applications (PIE, google maps, etc) is messed up and I continually get the error. I have to do a Soft reset to get rid of it but every time I try Internet sharing, it happens again.
Any clues? If I can't make it work, I'll probably have to go back to my trusty 6700. I really like the Titan but Internet sharing is a must have.

You wont be able to get it to work...(correct me if I'm wrong) error 67 is the phone not recognizing the log in email and password you set on your sprint.com account. Since you can browse with your internet explorer (you can, right?), the phone shows that it has no problems logging in.
You can, however, use PdaNet and share the broadband connection.
try using wmwifirouter for internet sharing, you will not get the eror code as a result of tethering your device with a usb cable.
to get rid of eror code 67, read this post

specifically the comment about disconnecting immediately upon connecting. worked for me.

I tried PDAnet and I get the same dreaded Error Code 67
So basically I get data on my phone, but I can't share it (tether)
That's strange...PdaNet works for me but internet sharing from the phone doesn't. Maybe you should try the solution posted above ^
Went back to Original ROM and verified Internet sharing works via the USB (didn't try BT but assumes that it would work too).
Not quite sure why I would always get the Error Code 67 with the upgraded ROM. I've read that a few others have had similar problems too but I don't think anyone has a definitive answer yet.
I really liked the GPS feature but for now the Internet Sharing trumps it in importance.
I am running dcd 2.3.2 with radio 3.42.30. Everything was working great until late last week... my Internet Sharing suddenly stopped working. When I say 'stopped working' I mean that it is no longer allowing me to connect via USB to my PC to get internet access. The PC does see it and ActiveSync pops up and when I start Internet Sharing it appears to work, even providing a 192.168.0.10x IP address to the computer. However, it never actually gets 'out' from the phone. On my friend's Vista machine, the little globe never appears on the network icon in the system tray. I tried a hard reset, a couple times, without success. I even pulled the battery for a while to see if that would help. Tried different USB cables. Tried changing the IP from mobile preferred to mobile only. My friend's mogul flashed the same is working, mine just stopped. Any thoughts?
Edit: PIE works until I establish Internet Sharing. Internet Sharing says connected but I don't get out to the internet and PIE will not work giving some message about "Page can not be found" until I disconnect from Internet Sharing.
I have persevered through the issue and have found a solution. I assumed the problem was likely DNS related because I was connecting fine, it was simply not showing as on the ‘Internet’ in Windows Vista. Once I connected this way with my phone, I was unable to browse even using PIE as I would get an error indicating the page could not be found. A little searching and I came across this DNS ‘speed fix’ post over at ppcgeeks.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=18435
I followed the instructions to change the DNS server entries and I was then able to tether just fine. So apparently, DNS was the culprit. However, I am wondering now what my default DNS servers were. I don’t see anything other than 192.168.0.1 on my PC when I check ipconfig information. Is there a utility that I can load on the phone to see what DNS servers I am getting from Sprint?
I would like to see what my friend who is using Sprint and not having a problem is getting also. If it is a Sprint DNS issue, maybe I should let them know about it and what the specific DNS server(s) are that are affected.

This isn't exactly an answer to your question but they found a way to activate the native hotspot feature without rooting or adding a tethering plan. I included the link to the thread and the instructions found within it.

Once you verified internet is working, power off phone, then power on. Phone should still have active internet connection, if it does, you are done!
I prefer to use barnacle, because you can do MAC based filtering (default deny, with questions for allow every time). Has anybody tried Barnacle on the Atrix with root?

What is the benefit of using the native ATT tether feature over barnacle? It seems to me that ATT would be more likely to discover your use of tethering if you use their native client and access points.

Not to mention that I got faster speeds when using Barnacle than I did the blank AT&T APN - 4.26 Down / 0.33 Up using Barnacle - 2.70 Down / 0.29 Up on the APN tethering....
For those wondering how to get Barnacle since the stupid Android Market says "this item is not available for your carrier," a big F-U to AT&T on that one, just root your device and allow side loaded apps, then from your computer, go to:
http://szym.net/barnacle/
and download the direct link.... You'll have to manually update it though (if necessary, works great as is on the current 0.6.7 version), because even with using Appbrain, it shows up in the apps sync'd, but will not open the market app to update, when necessary.

I don't have my Atrix yet (get paid on Monday), but on my current Streak, there are 2 ways to get Barnacle: Settings->Wireless & Networks->Mobile Network Settings -- Uncheck "Data enabled", then turn on wifi and download from the market.
The other (unconfirmed) option is to just use the Android web market: market.android.com . Search for Barnacle, install it there. It worked on my phone, but I had it installed previously. I don't think AT&T can block those installations, but I am sure they would if they could, so YMMV.
Barnacle not working for me.
For some reason, Barnacle Wifi won't even let my computer connect to it. It says it's sending out the signal, and my laptop is trying to connect but it just won't. My other smart phone won't even find the signal B.Wifi is sending out. The only thing that seems to work is using the native hotspot after following the instructions listed above. Just curious if anyone else is having an issue?

I've tried this as well. All I get is my computer tries to connect, but never connects to it. I don't get it.

Since the app doesn't need an update just yet, I can't confirm the first way you suggested. But I can definitely UNconfirm the second - that's where I got the text from that says it cannot be installed on our carrier. I almost always use the computer to search for apps as opposed to the actual Market app on the phone.
Was sitting in the passenger seat of a car going 80mph down the highway earlier and was getting a great connection with Barnacle the whole 3 hour trip. Love it, didn't even bother with the APN tether!
what kind of computer are you using. i have the Chrome CR-48 and it doesn't work because they can't connect to ADHOC networks. Tethering sets up an ADHOC network, not infrastructural like your Home Wireless Routers

An easy way to bypass the Market check is to download MarketEnabler from the market and temporarily change the settings to another carrier (e.g. I tried Telstra). This will allow you install Barnacle directly from the Market.
I also find that Barnacle works flawlessly. The Native Hotspot feature also works with no problem. I have found however that the native hotspot requires high speed or it will not even start. Barnacle on the other hand will work when still within the Edge network if need be.

Pretty cool, I'll have to try that, thanks for the suggestion!
Another satisfied Barnacle user here.
I am new to Android and when I got my Atrix the first thing I did was root it with SuperOneClick. I tried tethering it using the XDA's forum instructions for APN but couldn't get it to work. A friend of mine suggested Barnacle and I've been rolling ever since.
I was a little confused when my laptop showed the ad-hoc connection and symbol rather than a 'traditional' wifi network, but my connection is solid.
Now to wait on AT&T to do their thing and turn the psudo-4G switch on.

This works PERFECTLY.... Just used T-Mobile (a little closer to home than Telstra is in Australia ) and updated Barnacle - will be doing this for any other "issues" AT&T throws our way......
I was able to install Barnacle as well as PDANET by
***WARNING*** Make sure you know your Moblur login information before proceeding. It was the account you created when you first got your phone.
1) Turn off the phone.
2) Remove the AT&T SIM card
3) Turn the phone back on(It will make you login to your Moblur account again)
4) Connect to your WIFI
5) Install Barnacle and PDANET from the Android store.
6) Turn off the Atrix
7) Re-install your SIM chip
8) Enjoy the applications
I have found that this will work with alot of apps that you cant DL from the store because of AT&T's policy's.
I was unable to manually update Barnacle after side-loaded, could you include the steps you used to manually update?
Thanks!

Six posts up was the instruction, two posts up was me saying it worked to update the program - use MarketEnabler, it's pretty easy to use
I have searched through this forum, and have not yet found a thread pertaining to this issue. I am not a developer, just an android enthusiast, so i do not have a clue why, but the build.prop tether tweak does not seem to be working on some evo lte devices (including mine). The tether app would show connected, but with no internet access to PCs, laptops, anything not-android it seems. I will shed some light on how I fixed this issue, to hopefully help others in this forum who were most likely just as mind boggled as I was.
I downloaded foxfi from foxfi.com/bin since Sprint took it off of the market.
However, they did not take the foxfi addon off of the market, so I downloaded that as well.
Run foxfi, go to settings, and enable proxy. Foxfi will give you a proxy IP.
Connect to the network from your PC.
(I use Firefox, so I am unable to give specific browser instructions here)
Go to advanced network settings in your browser, and change the automatic proxy to manual, and type in the IP foxfi gives.
Wa-la! Hope this helps, if anyone has any questions, I will help as best as I can!
IN ADDITION: I have tried every other possible mod/app/setting that I have found on these forums. I do not know if Sprint hotfixed the phone to change the code of tethering (like i said, not a developer), because I bought my EVO LTE the last week in June. I will again clarify for the idiots below that cannot seem to read correctly, this is for those that have tried build.prop mod and/or wifi tether with generic ICS setting, fiddling with routing/MSS options and getting "connected with limited access", "no internet connection", or "connected" but still no web browsing capability to their PCs. If I am the only one out there with this problem, it would be my luck.
Happy tethering!

googles wifi tether works fine, just set it to generic ICS
Thanks guys. I was making this harder than it needed to be too. Feel like a noob.
It doesn't matter, for some people, WiFi tether on any setting does not work, sprint did something to their network, I spent hours trying to figure it out. It would connect to other android devices, but would give no net connection to PCs

Ok, so I've tried everything that I could think of to get it working. Considering literally a month ago i provided the answer that solved someone else problem. lol
So i just had to get a replacement DNA, and I just finished rooting it, in the process of installing all my apps, and I come to my tethering app.
I have used Wifi Tether for Root Users in the past, and it has worked. Obviously with the settings:
Device-Profile: Generic ICS/JN (wlan0)
Setup-Method: Auto
WiFi-driver reload: Checked
Routing fix: Checked
But i can't see my Network being broadcast at all. I've tried restarting my phone, my computer, re-instlaling the app.
I double checked, it is receiving root privileges.
My next step is to re-install ViperDNA, but I really don't feel like doing that hopefully i don't have to.
Ok, ok ok, everyone point and laugh at the noob who forgot to flash the boot.img.
So i flashed the boot.img and it works now. *sigh* /WalkOfShame
Similar problem with WiFi Tether
I am having a similar problem with WiFi Tether. My DNA is unlocked and rooted with Superuser. When I try to tether I get errors. The only three things that show as done are "Loading WiFi driver", "Enabling IP forwarding", and "Tethering now running". All other items fail. All my settings are identical to the ones mentioned above. My computer will tether to the phone, but the internet won't work. 4G works on the phone and I can connect to other hotspots without any problem. One thing that I find odd is that Superuser asks for permission every time I start or stop tethering, even though I set it to remember. I'm not sure what's causing that, but Superuser seems to be working with Root Checker and the other apps that need it.
I also tried Barnacle without any success. Errors from Barnacle are "WIFI: Could not set ad-hoc mode of wlan0: Operation not permitted" and "Could not connect to NAT, will retry later". My computer can see the Barnacle network but it won't connect at all.
Does anyone have any suggestions to sort this out??? Thanks in advance for your help.
I got it sorted out. Just for future reference to anyone that runs into anything similar, I installed the CubeStock kernel and that didn't fix it, but I read somewhere that WiFi Tether doesn't play well with Superuser, so I installed SuperSU and it is running like a champ now.
