[Q] wifi tether app help

---

I have wifi tether app installed but when I open and run it it constantly acts like it looses 3g connection. computer will connect with local access only. phone will have 3g logo and will switch between up and down arrows then have both then none then the 3g logo will dissapear. it acts like it is constantly switching between channel/signals but never stays connected. I am on a rooted 2.3.4 using downgrade and s-off running stock+ rom. I had wifi tether working in the past after root and rom but now it doesnt. my wife is on a rooted 2.2 with no issues. we have same settings and radios and hers works fine. I have used tb to uninstall and restore older versions I have uninstalled and downloaded the newest apk version I could find and it still does the same thing. The phone has no issues connecting to other wifi hotspots(home or public) and work fine on its own data for internet surfing. the only problem Im having is with wifi tether to connect laptop to.
radio is 2.15.00.07.28
software 4.08.605.2
any ideas or different free rooted apps?

running wifi_tether_v3_1-pre105.apk

Therr is a way to change settings in the epst menu which you access by dialing ##778#, that will allow you to use the stock hotspot app for free.

Dial ##778# and hit call. A menu should appear, select edit mode. A password box will appear enter six zero's (000000) as the password. A menu will appear select security. Look for and change any entries that look like "your#@dun.vzw3g.com" remove the "dun." so it looks like "your#@vzw3g.com". Then hit back to the main menu and select M.IP Default profile and look for and change the same entries as before. Once done hit menu and commit changes, the phone will reboot. Once rebooted use the stock app as normal ignoring the you must subscribe to this service message. Note if you do a *228 option 1, an ruu, or a factory reset from the settings menu or hboot, or have to reactivate the phone, you will have to edit the settings again before using the stock hotspot app. I have been doing it for years and verizion is none the wiser. There are either 2 or 3 entries which need to be edited.
