Wifi Tetering

---

Have a question re Wi-Fi tethering. I am rooted running Eclipse V1.3 I am looking to tether my Samsung Galaxy 10.1 tablet and my Droid X2. The problem is when I start the tether with the phone and tablet I get a webpage from Verizon wanting me to purchase the tether for $20.00 a month. I thought one of the benefits of being rooted allowed you to be able to connect without any restrictions? Any help would be appreciated.

You will need to use either this...

or an app from the market.. I recommend Barnacle as I have used it before.

That being said, so far these apps only support ad-hoc mode and not master or access point mode so some devices and clients may not connect.

Your mileage may vary..

There is also a thread here.. somewhere about using radiocom to tag data packets differently to utilize the stock hotspot, but i beleive that method no longer works.

Barnacle is very simple and easy to use. Can be set with wep password too. I recommend it as well

Thank you both for your quick reply, will give it a shot.

i 3rd, the use of the Barnacle app. my friends that have iphones ask to use my wifi.. and this little app has never failed.

I've heard of an app called face sniff. Supposedly like fire sheep where it van gain access to accounts on a network. I wonder if A) it works, and B) it works with barnacle haha
Anyone ever try the app before?
