Default Wi-Fi Tether w/ Root

I've successfully rooted my x10a and installed wi-fi tether 1.51 with no luck. Whenever I press on "- Press to start tethering -", I get a window displaying

Sorry!
The application Wireless Tether for Root Users (process android.tether) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Any of you guys had any luck?

I'm not using that specific app but I do use wifi tethering.

I installed Barnacle Wifi Tether and then in settings i set athwlan0 as the LAN port.

It works fine for me, I get 7+ mbits and it's held up for over 5GB so far. Might be worth a shot.

That's the error I got before I manually set up the LAN interface. Did you change that setting?

Follow the instructions I posted. The WAN interface is already set, you need to set the LAN interface.

I tried "android wifi tether", It says "no netfilter", by reading the guide from that developer's website, it says we need to get an android 1.6 update. I think it means the android 1.6 in our X10 is the earlier version of 1.6, those tethering software require something in the later version of 1.6. I also found the update on that website, but, X10 does not have recovery mode, so I dont know how to flash the "update.zip" into my x10

Do you have SuperUser working properly? Another thing can also be the WAN setting, it should be something like rmnet0.
