Default Tethering

Which app are you all using for tethering? I can't seem to get the wireless one to work, the wired one looks good, but not sure if it works with the HERO. There are two in the market, one is pda net which ive used, but it breaks up every few minutes and there is easy tether, but I haven't used that.

I think all you need is Htc sync installed to use the wired tether. I use the wireless tether just fine, you just have to experiment on which one works best for you. Try the 1.5 wireless tether.. Provided your hero is rooted.

You need HTC Driver installed for wired tether, and you also need the 2.11 PRI from one of the Eris ROMs.

Unless someone else knows about an update, There is currently issue with wireless tether and fresh toast. Like the ability to enable the wireless tether but the phone will lock up when disabling.

I've used and enjoyed Pdanet but now it "expired" and I can't access any secure sites (like email) and it's really annoying.

Never got Easy Tether to work

I have the "Wired Tether" by the same people who made "Wireless Tether for Root Users" and can't get either to work (running Fresh 2.1.2)

I'm pretty sure I have the HTC Sync drivers on my computer since my system detects it successfully as an adb android phone.

Idk what to do, I'd prefer to get the wired tether for root users to work but even if I could figure out the wireless problem that would be cool too.
