tried the normal freezing and also removing tethering manager.. but then when you try to create a wifi hotspot it crashes.. guess at&t has closed up that hole.. or maybe is it because the wifi tether app is at&t's own instead of the stock android one?

How do you guys do wireless tether with this phone? Whenever I try to use the Wireless Tether app, it creates an ad hoc network that I can't get my laptop to connect to. When my friend uses the same app with his evo, I have no problems connecting to it. Something about it having an infrastructure mode?
So, my question is, what do you guys use/do to successfully wirelessly tether to this phone?
Barnacle wifi tether if you insist on wifi tethering; or you could use Easy Tether for wired, but i believe it needs to be sideloaded
On a related note (sorry, don't mean to hijack), does the stock OTA 2.2 have the same tether tracking as the leaked version from earlier this year? I really don't want to pay the extra fee for something I'll use less than once a month.
Is it a known Issue with CM7 - 0713 that Wifi hotspot is not working? Devices can connect to it, but can not get an internet connection
Try Barnacle. I had issues with WiFi Tether, but Barnacle worked right out of the box. Just the opposite of my experience on TW.
Yea, barnacle doesn't work either. I am specifically looking for the built in hotspot for Access Point mode.
Barnacle works flawlessly, try disabling the wpa supplicant setting

If you know how to get CM7 into Modem mode, I can give you instructions on how to get the built it Hotspot app to work. I'm currently running MIUI (which is based off of CM7) and am having the same issue. The problem is that you need to get the phone into Modem mode in order to connect your phone to QPST to change a setting that will unlock the Hotspot app.
Does anybody know how to get a Fascinate running CM7/MIUI into Modem mode?
Well, after trying to tether an ASUS Transformer, I see your point. Barnacle does ad hoc rather than AP, so it won't work.
Bump. Also experiencing this problem with MIUI. Has anyone ever come up with a solution?
I do not have a tethering plan and I know about creating a new APN with the epc, but when I go into my Mobile Hotspot to do the tethering to my iPad, it says Error under the words Mobile Hotspot after I turn it on (I can still connect to the Internet on my phone with this error message)
My iPad can see my phones tethering connection under the WiFi connection choices and my phone shows me as being a connected User under users. I just cannot actually get on the Internet on my ipad with the Mobile Hotspot tether. I can get in the Internet still on my phone using the new APN.
Am I doing something wrong or is there another work around or way to tether FREE to my iPad using my phones Internet?
(I also tried a third party app called FoxFi and same thing happens where my iPad sees it as a connection access point but I cannot actually get on the Internet at all)
(Also what is Bluetooth Tethering?)
TIA!
Don't mess with that worthless mobile-hotspot app...
Just install WiFi Tether for Root Users from the Play Store, use the APN settings listed below, and go with it....
Can we get some tethering support going on here?
I think The Base has it, but my phone refuses to boot that ROM for some reason.

If you have root, you can get Barnacle from the Play Store.

I had problems with unauthorized tethering on my iPhone (used to get the warning messages to cease or they would switch my grandfathered in "unlimited" data plan). then I just used pdanet and set it to hide the tether and had no problems.
now with android I've got pdanet again which uses foxfi for the wifi tether. foxfi hides the tether with an addon that also requires you to setup a proxy connection (your android) on your computer.
I used FoxFi and PDANet+ to get wifi tether any chance there is another wifi app I can get that will let me share my 4G LTE through wifi?
Yea I used WiFi Tether for root users and worked great. You can even set a password. Why not use your system tether though/

WiFi Tether not working
I have used the wifi tether for some time on my rooted devices. With the last update that pushed out by Verizon, I am now getting the message "your carrier has blocked wifi tethering with version 4.1". Does someone have a work around they can share?
