[Q] [Wifi Tether] Low download speed

---

I'm having some weird problem with Wifi Tether. The first time I start tethering after a system reboot, it works great giving expected download speed of around 15Mbps. I compare the speed using the speedtest.net app on my evo and on my computer. When I stop tethering, and later on start it again, then the download speed on my computer drops below 1Mbps (usually 0.8 Mbps) while the download speed of my evo stays the same (15Mbps). The upload speed does not get affected at any point.

Rebooting the system does fix the problem, but like I said, only for the first time.
I have tried changing the wifi tether app settings in every possible way, clearing the app the cache, uninstalling and installing it, turning off encryption and access control. I also tried the app without the TrevE Mod and got the same results. The only thing that helps is rebooting the system.

Here's my setup:
Wifi Tether- TrevE Mod
Device Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Setup Method: Auto
Wifi Driver Reload: ON
Wifi Driver Reload 2: ON
MSS Clamping: ON
Routing Fix: ON

I have connection optimizer turned off.

Since I'm using MeanBean v3.04 (with latest OTA 3.16.651.3), I have been reading that thread and found out that some people is also having problems with wifi tether, but not quite the same problem I'm having. I have also tried searching on google and this forum.

Is any of you having this problem? Any idea how to fix it or what is it that rebooting the system does that temporarily fixes the issue? Maybe there is a way of achieving it without rebooting.

Thanks!

I have the same issue. I have a feeling its all the options we have to select to achieve it on jellybean. I don't recall having the issue on ics. I'm running close to the same setup but a little older version of meanbean. Was also having the same issue on stock w/ goodies too.

I started using wifi tether with my old EVO 4G running Froyo and didn't have any issue up until now with EVO 4G LTE running Jellybean. Please let me know if you find a solution, I'll do the same.
