Hi Developers,

I have asked this question couple of times in the forum, however no one is interested in responding, therefore thought of starting the new thread.... Please merge if one already exists.

I have been using the CM7 Nand build and everything works fine except for the Wifi Hotspot & USB Tethering on the CM7 Nand build. I use a 3G connection and it works absolutely fine on the phone, however when I use the Hotspot or USB tethering feature my laptop does not connect to the internet, I have tested this on multiple systems and its always the same. Also tried to re-flashing, however did not work. Reinstalled wm6.5 and everything worked fine. The CM7 SD card version and the R175 & R169 from code.google work absolutely fine and my laptop is able to connect to the internet via my phone. Also if i connect the phone to a wi-fi router it works absolutely fine. Therefore I feel that this is something related to the CM7 NAnd build and not specific to the laptop
Not sure if I am the only 1 facing this problem. If anyone has found a fix for this please upload the steps.

Yes, same problem here unfortunately. 3G works fine on Mini, router is available and connection to it goes fine, but then router is not routing at all, internet connection doesn't go through. Win7 shows a yellow "!" mark on the wifi icon and that's it. Sounds weird that SD version has working tethering though. Any hint or test we can make?

Yes, i think problem is mac 11:22:33:44:55:66 but why devs can not not add old wifi driver with static harcoded nvs? I using it with fixed mac addr and boot.img is easy to hex edit becouse is not compressed, for example users will be able to hex edit their boot.img with his real mac addr:

photon boot.img with static nvs:

I've got an HTC Aria but I'm on the same boat here. What I've did is to install an app called OpenGarden and since then Wifi Tethering works perfect. USB tethering still not working.

I'm trying on Windows 7 x64

    Hi Developers,
