Is there a solution to wifi tether and 3g dropping off?

I have been using wifi tether and the built in tethering option on CM. On both my 3g will randomly drop in and out. Also, when tethering two computers the connection is almost unusable.
Is there something that I am missing or something that I need to change?
Thanks and I apologize if this has been answered. I tried searching without luck.

The only time that has happened to me, is when my screen went to sleep, because I had my m obile data unchecked. I have to force the screen to stay on during tethering. I used to have the tethering drop off as well, not the 3g. that was solved by changing the channel to 1. Never had a failed connection since then. Other than that, I would be rendered clueless.
Yeah keeping the screen on seems to help but I still can't figure out why the 3g shuts on and off. It is really strange.

Tips/Tricks to prevent connect to attwifi?

Any tips/tricks to preventing connection to attwifi without turning wifi off? It's speed is horrible in most places, and would just rather stay hspa+/LTE.
I've tried deleting WISPr_Android22_postpaid.apk in /system/app, yet it still seems to connect. Is it going to connect whether we like it or not because it's in our data plans?
There's a check box in Advanced wireless settings to turn that off.

WiFi not reconnecting

I leave my WiFi on at all times. I only have WiFi access at home, so when I'm at work I leave it on but am not connected to anything except the cell network. My typical day is about 10 hours at the office. When I get home, occasionally I will reconnect to my own WiFi but most days it will show my network as available and that my password is saved, but I have to toggle WiFi on and then back on before it will auto correct. Trying to manually connect from the network list doesn't connect either until toggled off and on.
Over the weekend, I can leave for several hours and reconnect without any issue. Seems to be something with the extended time away during the workday that causes the issue. Is anyone else experiencing similar or have suggestions on how to fix this issue?

Had that happen to me too. Turned airplane mode off and back on, reconnected right away.

Just toggling the WiFi off and on seems to resolve it, so it's not an overly huge issue. Just would be nice if I didn't need to toggle at all and it would auto connect as my previous phones had done.
