[Q] Tethering APN No Longer Working? - Atrix 4G General

The APN setup for free tethering seems to be dead; it is no longer working on my phone. I have reboot, I have reset, and I have no luck. My phone will not connect via tether or even phone browser with the free APN set. I am in the Motorola Upgrade Beta program, and I did the upgrade, but that is the only variable.
Anyone else experiencing this? Did AT&T Clamp down?

I'd be willing to bet that they locked it down...

Im a beta tester and my tethering still works, did you make a custom apn?

Yes, it is my custom APN that that is no longer working. All other APNs are working fine.

Just tried mine... at first I thought it wasn't working... but it connected and worked...
slowly at that... maybe just the time of day?...

Does yours look like this?
APN=wap.cingular
Proxy=wireless.cingular.com
Port=80
[email protected]
Password=CINGULAR1
Server=
MMSC=
MMS Proxy=WAP2.0
MMS Port=
MCC=310
MNC=410
Auth.=
APN Type=

I also read that you may have to have wireless on before you enable the mobile hotspot.. don't know if it helps.. but I just tried mine with my laptop again and it worked... .63 down .16 up...

Can't connect to WiFi??

I have the stock Android 2.1 on my phone and I rooted it but nothing else. For some reason my phone will not connect to my home WiFi. I put in the WEP key and it still says disconnected. Not sure if root had anything to do with it since I only assumed WiFi was working before I rooted. Any ideas? WEP is right, not sure what the "Key Index" is...

Root has nothing to do with it.

Is your router setup to only allow N connections? If so, the default wifi is only for G and B networks unless you have updated the kernel.
Could it be because you're a dirty gator? Sorry, I know that's not helpful, please forgive me. Go Noles!!!

Harrison, I am certain that's not the problem.

I hit connect but the status under the WiFi setting never changes from disconnected.

Well first of all root def.ly is not the reason. I would try a few things such as reboot the phone and router. Next I would try to disable the security on the router just for testing. see if you can connect without any key. Also try connecting to an open Wifi connection that is available. This open would narrow down your problem to either the phone or your home network. If you are able to connect to other wifi connection then the issue is not with the phone but your home network.
Mine seems to not want to connect to the wifi until I go into Settings - Wifi, then suddenly it decides my wireless router is there and connects. The only other app on my phone that can activate the wireless radio is Wifi Analyzer, but I have that feature turned off.

Not familiar with Trigger, is it 2.2.1?
Wifi calling does not work on 2.2.1.
No its 2.2 based, im aware it don't work on 2.2.1 -_-

Some ISP's are blocking the tmobile servers in their Domain Name Servers. Try changing your routers DNS settings to openDNS's(google them) and see if that helps. I had to do this to my work's ISP(comcast) and my home ISP (Uverse) for it to work, as soon as I made the changes it worked perfectly.
Ok makes sense cause the error says sumthing about isp, and I recently changed the dns on my router ill change it back and see if that works thanks dude

VPN works fine in Wi-Fi but not with 3G

I'm hopeless here. I have a paid VPN service, and it works perfectly with my PC, with my mobile on Wi-Fi and with my friend's mobile also on 3G, but not on mine. For sure there's something wrong with my device. I tried hard reset, different ROMS and all different servers and settings.
It does connect to the VPN and it keeps up the connection, but internet just doesn't work. Anyone have any idea why this is happening? I tried to search other threads about this, but no success.
Thanks

Same here ... I search but nothing ... I'm on Ressurection Remix 3.1.3 with Kernel cm 10.1... VPN in 3G don't work

vpn thrue 3g and mobile connection
hi
reason, routing.
1. you have to setup your vpn connection to route any data between your vnp-connection.
or
2. you use another apn who route unsecured and secured data to different routes.
(secured data = VPN, unscured Data => www)
Check the isp apn if it use a stateful paket inspection firewall. this apn can ussually only route secured data (vpn).
Its no bug its a feature to solve some problems like too much connections, timeouts, reduction of hacker attack surface, and more..
you can find this information in the special vpn-whitepaper from your isp.
i hope this helps you.
How does the go to my p.c. app work?Is it pretty good app. Thanks

When you set up the VPN on your phone, make sure you fill out the forwarding fields as 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 otherwise no traffic will be forwarded through it. Testing on wifi from the same location as the host is a miserable way to test VPN as it tells you nothing. Turn off the wifi, and always test on your mobile data. There ARE carriers out there that WILL filter out VPN connections for normal user accounts and require you sign up under a business-class account to use such connectivity, this is because they want more money from you, and to not give you an easy way to get around their tethering detection. Plus in some countries, you're not allowed to possess the capability to encrypt and secure your own data/traffic and the means of encryption are banned (and therefore filtered "on-the-wire").
Use VPN Service that has open port. Like http://xtreamvpnworld.blogspot.com ive been using it for more than a year. I got no problem.

That's seems odd. Anyway I haven't tried built in vpn, how about openvpn? Have you tried it? I think built in vpn doesn't support voips like viber etc. Or maybe your vpn provider does not. I really don't know. Because I tried using droid and xtream vpn it works on every chatting platforms.
