Hi
The tethering speed on my computer is much slower than the actual speed on my phone. I tried both ICS and WMwifirouter via usb to tether. And they both show similar speed. So i don't think it's because of software.
0.5m kbs on computer vs 1.7m kbs on phone
do you guys know a solution for this?
before i used Samsung a777 to tether and the dl speed was 1200kbs
so i don't know if ATT now block smartphones form tethering?
Make sure in Settings/Connections/Connections you have set both networks to MediaNet and take out any proxy settings.
Not sure why it would be slower though.
I tether and the speed is the same without any tweaks.

Now don't get me wrong, I love my Evo, but why would the tethering be so slow?
I can't direct link to results so I attached them as images, but the wifi tethering on the Moment was almost double the speed of usb tethering on the Evo.
Shouldn't the Evo be faster & shouldn't usb be faster than wifi in general too?
I am in a 4g coverage area, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Is there some way of getting faster connections?
What method are you using to USB tether?
All: I just got my WiFi Xoom, and I have it tethered to my (rooted) HTC Thunderbolt using WiFi Tether.
It connects fine, but seems slow when using Speedtest.net - I only get about 2Mbps Down, and less than 1Mbps up. When I tether other devices to the Thunderbolt (4G LTE) I seem to get much better performance which seems more in line with the performance it is capable of.
So, I was curious to know if there was some sort of a limitation or issue with the WiFi speeds when tethering on the Xoom? I can't say I see speed issues with the Xoom when connected to an access point at home on a cable modem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I dont know but the fist time I did a speed test with my TB and my laptop was very fast over 20BM, I did reset my phone and rooted one more time,now Im having the same problem :-( if someone know please help how to fix it!
Samthing here, when using the "internet connection" mode I get 20mbps but when using PDA net or Easy Tether on my TB it's like 1.5mpbs! Anyone got any ideas?
just did 2 quick tests with wifi tether and got about 6 down.
Is there a way I can USB tether my tablet to my phone? I believe 3.1 has USB host support, so if I got the USB adapter for my tablet would it be able to use it for internet? I don't want to buy the adapter before knowing if it's going to work.
The reason I'm asking is that I've always used USB tethering on my Evo 4G when tethering to my laptop, and I get great speeds. However, I tried wifi tethering for the first time today with my Galaxy Tab and found that download speeds won't go above 250 kilobits/sec, while upload speeds are 1.2Mbit/sec. From my phone the speedtest still shows 6-7Mbit/sec download speeds, which is the same that I get over USB tethering. Wifi tethered download speeds are also this slow when using my laptop. I tried disabling encryption and disabling CPU scaling (ie set min and max freq at 1Ghz) in case the phone was CPU bound, but it had no effect. The actual load on the phone was minimal during a wifi tethered speed test (3% usage). So there must be something wrong with wifi tethering on my phone.

Hmm, I wonder if logcat and/or dmesg have any useful info. It could be an issue of the usb networking driver not being present, or it could be something simple like the tablet not using dhcp to ask for an IP or DNS server.
in the uk, on the ee uk network and have 20gb monthly data
i have created a hotspot but it always hangs
anyway of speeding this up, on my tablet device its a lot faster and doesnt hang, so im guessing it could be an issue with my macbook 2013 retina 13' or is there something else i can try?
I am having exactly the same issue with my Z3 COmpact + MacBook Pro 15" Retina 2013.
Tethering with my 1+1 no problems -.-
This makes no f:ing sense.
Try USB tethering, I think the WiFi chip in the z3c is **** and can't handle tethering at full speed. Install HoRNDIS for your Mac to enable USB tether.
Im on t-mobile here in USA.I tether to me Sony laptop and me ps4 streaming fifa at the same time zero issues

I often use the WiFi hotspot on my Z3C with my Macbook Air with no slow downs in speed. I do not tether it though.
Probably depends more on the speed or maybe I have a faulty unit. My LTE reaches around 50-60 Mbps when I use the WiFi hotspot it drops to 20-25 Mbps with both my Mac and PC. When I use the USB tether I get full speed.
Hi. I have Samsung Galaxy Note 5 T-Mobile and MetroPCS plan with unlimited data and only 8GB HotSpot with high speed. I'd like to have unlimited HotSpot and high speed to use on PS4. I tried to change APN settings, apps like FoxFi and PdaNet, but it's useless. I can have high speed on laptop with PdaNet app, but when I trying to share it, it's only low speed, and tried Wi-Fi and LAN on PS4 - same thing. I have no idea what to do, I can't connect other Internet cause traveling, hotels and other places have poor connection and speed, especially with PSN restrictions (I've spent a month to download the last game). Please help.
I'm in same exact boat lol. :good:
