Wireless Tether

---

Has anyone gotten wireless tether to work? I know the built-in hotspot is free for another month or so, but I'm looking beyond that.

no luck with either

I haven't tried it yet, but wouldn't the Barnacle Wifi Tether app work now that we can rollback and re-root?

code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether works perfectly if you're rooted.

Mine works fine

Yeah it definitely doesn't work for me. It also shows up as an ad-hoc connection in my available networks. From what I remember with my Evo, it showed up as a normal wifi network? What does it show as for you guys?

Wifitether only sets up ad-hoc unless the kernel was modified such in some builds i found of EVO and Droid Incredible. If you want infrastructure mode instead of ad-hoc you need to use the built in wifithether

Oh man, if you could get the built in one to work forever and have a few extra options, like channel, authentication, etc, that would be awesome. I realize the other wifi tether kinda works, but the stock one seems to be really stable.

How does the wifi hotspot check to see if it is still free?
Because I tried running Droid Wall and nothing showed up in the log.

Anyone having luck tethering to through the Wii? it works fine on my computer but the Wii says it cannot locate a signal...???
