Which apps work for effective 4G tethering via either wireless or USB? I've got the latest version of Wireless Tether for Root Users, but I haven't tested it yet. Will the stock "internet sharing" feature work for 4G?
yes, if you pay for it. wireless tether works 4g

just curious i wanted to try out sprints tether before i bought easy tether or PDAnet.

Stock Hotspot
This is a known issue, and I don't think anyone has come out with a fix for it yet.
The Vaelpak version of WiFi Tether works flawlessly on Ricsims Stock Turbo 3.70 however, and it is basically the same version of your ROM without the Vaelpak theme.
No need to purchase PDAnet or easy tether.
thanks for the reply i use this as my main internet connection at home through my desktop and dont have a wifi usb dongle paying for one would be just like paying for pdanet so i just use usb tether but ive used up my pdanet "trial" lol and easytether just doesnt seem as good so just wanted to try out the stock sprint usb tether but if i cant get 3g then maybe ill buy pdanet.
again thanks for the reply
I would like to be able to connect my PS3 to my 3G/4G connection via a WIFI router. I have a Cradlepoint CTR35 3G router as well as a Zoom 4501 3G router that I have attempted to USB tether and WIFI tether (using the repeater feature) my phone to. I am on Caulkin's 2.8.1 rom, EL29 modem, which has the unlocked Sprint hotspot and USB tethering features. On both routers, I am unable to get the "3G connected" light to turn on indicating internet access. Are there any routers that are compatible with the Epic 4G Touch? Is there a better way of doing this? My PS3 does not see the AD-HOC connection if I just use the Sprint Hotspot app. My laptop connects directly just fine to both USB tethering and WIFI tethering. I greatly appreciate your input! Thanks

I have Caulkin's 2.8.1 and under apps it has a Sprint Hotspot app. That is what I am using for the WIFI tethering attempts. I need to do some further testing with the WIFI tethering to the router, but my main concern is to be able to USB tether to a router that supports the Epic 4G Touch and currently neither of the 3G routers I have purchased work in USB tether or WIFI tether.....need some insight. Thanks

The Sprint hotspot app creates an infrastructure connection, and not adhoc.
I don't see why you are trying to connect the Epic Touch to yet another router when it IS itself a router via the hotspot app, and up to 8 devices.

what your saying is true.. and yes the person did say ad hoc doesnt work, but if you read it, he also stated just using the hotspot app doesnt work.. regardless, my suggestion would be to just get internet at home and buy a regular router id like to see you play a high end game online with a 3g/4g connection lol.. either your phone is messed up, or your not setting it up properly.. because like ppl have said, the hotspot app turns your phone into a wireless router already..
I just tested connecting the PS3 to my E4GT using the Sprint Hotspot app on Calk's ROM and it works perfectly fine.
I saw some action regarding this a while back, but never saw a solution i liked. I don't want to install software on my machine such as CWM tether or pdanet. I came from using the HTC Evo 4G where this worked like a charm.
I can have 4g active while wifi tethering using "Wifi Tether for Root Users", so I could at least get a USB wifi adapter which would pay for itself in a month.
Ultimately, is there a particular kernel / ROM combo where 4g and USB tethering is possible on the e4gt?
So I've gathered from a couple threads that CM has a policy to not tether (USB or Wifi) on 4G - it drops you down to 3G. It seems that you can bypass this by running Wifi Tether for Root Users, and I've confirmed it works - 4G stays active (even if it's only maybe a meg faster than my 3G due to JB Wimax issues).
However, I can't find anything that will allow me to USB tether at 4G speeds. The built in toggle for USB tether works great (my system finds the NDIS driver fine). Anyone know of an app or even better, one with a toggle widget, that I could use to enable USB tether without dropping to 3G speeds?
Running Paranoid Android 2.54 by the way.
