Have you tried Barnacle?
Do you BONSAI?
You're not trying to play games online through your phone's connection are you? Cause if so you will fail miserably.
Not sure, but I don't think the PS3 can connect in ad-hoc mode. Are you sure you're using an app that supports infrastructure mode, and is configured to operate that way?
Every one I've ever used has operated in ad-hoc mode...

I have tried barnacle without success. I did manage to finally get wireless tether working through the default wireless tether app that comes with asc roms.
Now all I have to do is improve my 4g signal strength. Thinking about overclocking a tower or two. ;p

**HERES HOW TO TETHER YOUR DATA TO YOUR PS3**
First you must tether to your laptop (if you have one). Then what you do is get an ethernet cable (cheap on ebay) and hook it from your laptop to your PS3.
Then you have to share your data from your laptop to your PS3. I can't say exactly how to do it on your laptop cause I don't know what kind you have so you will have to look up how to share your internet connection from your laptop to other devices.
Thats pretty much the short explanation. Look up on youtube "how do i tether to ps3" and you will see exactly what to do. Thats how I figured it out

I use a program called barnacle legacy, and it sets up an ad-hoc network. I had to use this instead of the apk posted around here because that one created a computer-to-computer network, which my work laptop won't connect to (domain enrolling and all that.)
I'd say give that app a shot and get back to us.

wireless tether is ad-hov connections not interface; there's a big difference in the two.
computers can connect to both while cell phone's can only connect to interface connections.

Infrastructure mode is supported on droid incredible. dont know how they did it but i owned one so i know its possible.
Thanks for the replies.
Here is what I want to do...
I deactivated my incredible to get this fascinate.
I run wireless tether on the fascinate and would like to use the hotspot created to use the incredible.
For instance I could put the inc in it's windshield mount and get data to run navigation through the wireless network created from the fascinate.
I would love some help or at least to know if it can or cannot be done.
Great forum.
Fascinate oc1.2 for now

I just downloaded it from the market and ran it. Maybe it doesn't work on droid 2.
Theres another version apparently. The Legacy version was like a good version that worked for a lot of people, and I guess his newest version was something that didn't work for some, but worked for others.
Just wondering if anyone else is using the wireless tether app for their 360? I didn't think it would work since it doesn't work for wii but I just tried to connect and it worked, been playing multiplayer halo reach on it all week!
*disclaimer need the new xboxes I think, but maybe old one with the wifi adapter thing
I don't have a wifi xbox, but when My internet was down once I used my phone as wifi for my laptop, then shared my laptop's interent via cable... worked fairly well.
actually, wireless tether 2.06 should work for xbox or wii... it's in infrastructure mode on these phones. On older phones (like I came from a hero) it could only do ad hoc
I've used it for my 360...mostly black ops..but it works

i was hoping some one could help me out, or at least point me in the right direction here. I'm trying to connect through my droid x. It's rooted and i have wireless tether for root users.

Are you picking up the adhoc network on the xbox?
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
i can pick up my droid x's wireless network, or atleast it shows up when i scan for wireless networks. and when i try and connect it cannot connect to "androidtether" because it cannot find the IP addresses. so as for the ad hoc networks i'm not entierly sure. I'm kinda new at this type of stuff so you'll have to fogive me. But under configure connections it shows up as "infrastructure" as other forums has said it should.

Wired tether 1.4 works for me, except on linux - even though it appears that stock attempts to use rndis (dmesg on my linux box shows that it momentarily recognizes a rndis device), it doesn't work the same way that Rodderik's rndis support worked in his EC05 kernel... windows auto-detects it just fine, though

Hotspot hack isn't as nice
I like keeping track of how much data I use while tethering. Wired and wireless tether lets me do that. Playing MW2 and BF3 over 3G is data intensive, so I like to keep an eye on it. Plus, those are things the Sprint knows wouldn't be coming from the phone normally, so limiting their data use would be a good idea.

No can do. The PC doesn't have wireless. Plus it's nice to charge the phone and only use one radio at a time instead of the big drainer of EVDO and Wifi going full bore.
Ok so wen I turn on wifi tether it also turns on the built in wifi and then returns it off.
When it does that, built in hotspot and wifi say error. Can anyone show me alternative wifi tether apps?

Wow. It's just a question, and honestly, I was wondering the same thing as him. You don't need to get butthurt over this.
hey all,
I recently got a nexus 7 and I want to tether my sweet, sweet verizon 3g to it with my xplay, but none of the apps I try work. Barnacle doesn't even show up in in my n7's wifi networks list, and the Google Play release of Wifi Tether for root shows up but my n7 never connects and the app inevitable encounters errors on my xplay. Anyone have good recommendations?

I ran into that exact problem with wifi tethering in foxfi, too. Still looking for a fix
From what I can tell, bluetooth works for a basic internet connection (web browsing, etc) , but you can't do anything that requires a "wifi" connection, like downloading apps or streaming from google play services like music. It's a blessing and a curse, because it doesn't provide a full networked experience, but it saves you from potentially running through your data quota on intensive tasks which, if you have a 2GB plan like me, can be handy

I'm grandfathered into a Verizon Unlimited data plan, Once I got rooted I downloaded Barnacle Tether ( for free ) and set my phone up as a WiFi hotspot. Tested it at school back in the day and people had no problem connecting to it, had an iphone 4 and an iphone 3GS connected at the same time.

Nope, no such feature, and the root free tether apps require you to buy a tethering plan.

Its not locked out it just tells you you have to pay for it. But after that ruling by the FCC maybe they will stop this, I don't know.
