None of those apps will do what he's looking for. He's trying to reverse tether. I'm not sure if koushs' app can reverse tether. Check these 2 links out.

[Q] How can I tether with networks other than AT&T

Hey guys,
Now before everyone chimes in with "Barnacle", "Wireless Tether from Google Code" or "just add a custom APN"... I have tried all of these methods including using Root Explorer and SQL Lite to edit the APNs and none of them will enable me to tether over wifi. I'm on the latest version of Ginger Blur and using the Atrix in Australia on the Telstra Next G network.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Under the .db file, ensure that where it says default, add tether after it (default,tether) make sure its the telstra line though. Thats all i did to mine from memory. Also ensure airplane mode is on

I use the WIRED tether from google code, works like a dream. Wired tether doesn't eat your battery and helps with heat since you wont be using wifi too.

No real need for wired tether as I'm wanting to tether with my iPad.

Tried this, didn't work. This is probably going to be a deal breaker for me .
Bump?
Looks like I'll be going back to the Inspire, I need to be able to tether for my iPad 2.

Tethering?

I'm confused. I understand that Sprint charges extra to allow customers to enable tethering via their cell phones. And I understand that many rooted phones can have apps installed and/or enabled to allow tethering without any extra charge. (Please correct me if any of that is inaccurate.)
So what happens when I turn on the wifi hotspot on my new phone? Will it fail because I don't have a "tethering" option on my plan? Will it work, but add $30 to my monthly bill? Or will something else happen.
Same with the USB tethering? How does that work? And get billed?
This 3vo is the first phone I've had that offered these options.
You can use USB tethering without paying the $30/month fee. That's just for WiFi tethering. If you try to use the WiFi hotspot, it simply will just not work. You will not be charged.

Both wired and wireless tethering fail with the message to contact Sprint to upgrade your plan.
What about pdanet? I haven't had time to try it out yet.

No, I'm not happy to see you, that's a Shooter in my pocket.
I was told the usb tethering would be free but when i try it it tells me its not included on my acct

This app is cheap and works great check it out here Also you CAN tether a wifi connection for free but not using mobile connection.
Tethering Roms
I found when you try to use either wireless or wired tethering build into the software, you get that error message and it also shuts down the 3g signal. You can still form an adhoc network wirelessly but no internet.
I'm looking for a Rom that unlocks the built in tethering. I just found Virusrom to do a good job. Any other roms you can recommend that just unlock the built in tethering functions?

USB Wired Tether?

Is there one that works for the Rezound? This was last updated in 2010...
http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/
...so I don't think that would. Anyone know of another one that has the same design as the newest Wifi Tether, but it's USB?
PDANet works fine with it.
Have you tried clockworkmod tether?

Try Easytether, it works for me.
Clockworkmod tether was working fine but it suddenly stopped working a few days ago.

Lite version stays free but blocks https. That's pretty much industry standard.
Blocks https ? How is that industry standard, maybe amongst the tether app devs but not real world

You answered your own question. This limitation is pretty much standard amongst all the free apps.

how would you do wired tethering to a tablet? foxfi is only needed for wireless i belive. if you want to do wireless tethering just get wifi tether. works great
I am trying easy tether lite.
Basically its connected to PC and app is working, it works on websites. However things like ssh connections dont appear to even try to use the connection they still go over my wired broadband connection. According to the FAQ only UDP is blocked, so I have emailed the author to see if its a true internet sharing app or just for web.
After a bit of research, I have found the following methods for full, free USB tethering with no limitations and for free USB reverse tethering:
I found this app for USB tether. It is entirely free and allows https and all. It took me a bit of time to figure out how to make it work: I did it by going to Chrome Settings > Advanced settings > Proxy settings > LAN settings > Use proxy server for LAN; Adress: localhost; Port: 8080.
Then I started the connection from the app, also set to port 8080. Although Windows never recognized any internet connection, it worked in Chrome.
To switch back to my DSL internet or Wi-Fi, I had to disable the proxy again.
For the reverse tether, I found this Windows tool. It allows reverse tethering with nothing installed on the phone (although root is needed). The only problem with it is that the Play Store is unable to download over its connection, but one can always go to play.google.com in the phone's browser and download things from there.
easy tether does actually work on everything, I paid for it now.
I got no idea if any free apps that have full tethering. CM7 rom supposedbly has it but for some reason the option isnt on my phone's version of CM7.

Tether Phone from Computer

Hello all. I was wondering if I could share my computers internet with my phone. My computers hooked up with ethernet so it would be nice if I could share that connection with my Note. Thank you.
Depends, there's tethering and there's reverse tethering...
To connect to the internet on PC using the phone's cell towers, I use EasyTether
I mean reverse tethering, I tried an app and it didnt work and I tried setting up an ad hoc connection and that didnt work either
This is what I found to work best...

U can't plug it in and have it work that way. U have a router? Plug desktop into router and WiFi tether like that. rofit?:
you could try pdanet, it allows for wireless usb and bluetooth and so long as you don't need ssl its free
Wait... So I can use my phone as a modem/router for my Xbox 360? No... Too good to be true. Especially after I have a WiFi adapter in the mail.
Um... Laptop, crossover cable and network bridge. Not as hard as it sounds either. You could also use a router with tomato or ddwrt and route the xbox that way lol
Yeah... Have no computer at home so... Need Mac guyver to rig me something up with an alarm clock and a crack pipe. Bam! Turns into a WiFi adapter! So awesome!
Well that sucks...Wait a minute, alarm clock and crack pipe? Stop trying to blow things up Salamanca
