OK
Thanks for posting the issue with internet sharing
Here's the fix
Use reg edit and change these values:
HKCU\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNETSHARING\LASTCELLCALL CHANGE TO "MEdia Net"
HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\ForceCellConnection change to "MEdia Net"
AT&T blocked option to change connection type so you have to change that in reg.
Now just softreset and enjoy.
PS
I'm using it right now
OK

tether tweak cab for att stock?
Hey I don't have my Tilt 2 yet so I can't test this but I cabbed up your changes. Maybe one of you with Tilt2 MEdia Net could test this sucker out? First make sure you are currently unable to tether and then install and soft reset to see if it fixed it. Report back!
edit: cab removed, report of no success

Doug, it didnt work for me...
This is the correct reg
"HKCU\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNETSHARING\LASTCELLCONNECTION CHANGE TO "MEdia Net""
I updated it manually and it doesnt stick. Its forcing me to the other APN still....
Thanks for reporting back, removed the cab from my post. So yours is the correct key but it doesn't stick.... hmm. Sounds like flashing a custom rom might be the only way out unless you put a registry tweaking thing in startup.
I just tried this using AT&T Tilt 2 on the stock ROM and it worked.
I could not find any such key called "HKCU\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNETSHARING" so I ignored that part.
I changed HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\ForceCellConnection to "MEdia Net".
I reset the phone.
I tried to share through a USB connection, but it kept appearing on my computer as a hard drive despite selecting the option for Internet Sharing.
So instead I tried sharing through Bluetooth PAN. It was actually easier than it used to be on WM6.1. I selected Connect from the Internet Sharing program and it brought up a list of Bluetooth pairings. I selected my laptop (win7), which I had previously paired for ActiveSync purposes. The phone said "connecting to computer" and then "connecting to internet" and then it was done.
I accessed websites on my computer and refreshed to make sure it wasn't cached. I checked that my computer's wifi was disabled and that the phone's wifi was not on. Looks like it works.

Question...on the stock ROM, does the built-in connection use the wap.cingular connection or the isp.cingular?
I heard it was wrong to use isp.cingular. Should we create a new profile specifically for wap.cingular?

This method worked for me. Thankfully I have a tetherable TP2 now ^^...only thing is the connection sucks until AT&T fixes their network. Takes forever to load a simple page....
That works great for me, but after soft reset "HKLM\Comm\InternetSharing\Status\Enabled" reverts back to Value of "0". To use Internet Sharing, I have to edit this value after every soft reset.
Any possible fixes for this? Thanks in advance!Stock AT&T Tilt 2
Edited To Add: It finally stuck! No idea why it took so long.

Doesn't sound like your ready to play with registry (no offense). Always know you can cripple Windows if your not careful. You have to open the "\\Plugins" folder at the top of the root dir of the phone and then select registry. Follow the given instruction from there. Again though, be careful.
Oh im sure im not.... I dont think ive messed with a registry since my Moto v620 years ago. My Tre0 750, just had every cab i ever needed already made.
If its not sticking though... i guess theres really know point till someone figures this thing out. I hate how AT&T blocks certain features....

NOTE! -- THIS IS ONLY FOR AT&T CUSTOMERS
I have made a cab version of my fix so that mortscript isn't required. Simply install and restart your phone and your ready to go! (much easier instructions eh?)
That's it!
