Use verizon mobile hotspot free, AP mode

---

Hello all,

just picked up a fascinate to tinker with while waiting for new phones too arrive . With an easy task in qpst you can tether via verizon mobile hotspot for free. Obtain QPST (don't ask me where to get it)

Install GalaxyS Drivers (they are floating around the forum)
Put phone in modem mode (setting, wireless, enable dial up)
Fire up QPST (youll see windows adding the driver etc blah blah)
Add port (should be USB in there)
Once you see your phone in qpst goto the start clients menu and start service programming.
hit read from phone (password is 000000)
tab over to M.IP, under profile 1 click edit.
Changed tethered NAI to YOURNUMBER@vzw3g.com
Click write to phone,
phone will reboot, use mobile hotspot

NOTE: I am not responsible for any charges you may get, but you should be fine

EDIT: Please note if you ever reprogram your phone *228, then you need to perform this again.

If rooted can wireless tether app work? Thinking about upgrading soon, but not wanting to pay for something free now.

technically this won't require root but yes i am rooted and using verizons app for AP mode instead of wireless tether for root users.

Is there an advantage to doing it this way rather than using wireless tether? Not being critical...just curious.

I didn't look into wifi tether for root much for the fascinate but by default it seems to use ad-hoc mode some may prefer AP mode also this helps those that don't wish to root.

Great point, having a norm connection would be nice. Got so used to ad -hoc. Thank-you for quick reply.

I was able to do this on the incredible via the phone. Anyway to access this on the fascinate? On inc I dialed a code into the dialer and changed setting
