edit: i;ve tried 'wifi tether' and 'open garden' now. open garden seems to work, but my laptop doesn't find the network
Why are you using a WiFi tether app ? Does the built in WiFi ap not work ?

I was under the impression that the built in app would be the verizon version and i would have to pay for it

I've been with Verizon for long time , I used to tether all the time , no extra charges. I think it became illegal to charge for WiFi hotspot .
I would check into it because you should be OK

Does anybody know what version of the Wireless Tether for root users works with the rooted stock ROM for the Inc2? Tried the latest 3.1 beta (3.1b6) but it doesn't work.
try this
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wireless_tether_2_0_7.apk
Im using the 2.0.7 wireless tether and does not work on my dinc 2, im running tsm_gingerbangsense_2 this is the message. Cannot communicate with DNS server (#########) Network diagnostic pinged the remote host but did not receive a response.
In the network and sharing center i can see this (this computer-Android tether-----x-----)
works fantastic on inc2HD
I found that Open Garden app works just great.
Not being able to communicate with the dns server means your phone can't connect to the internet, so there is nothing to rebroadcast via wifi. are you within a good signal area for 3g, and does your data work in other apps?

Hi OP.
Enable mss clamping and routing fix in settings on the newest beta. You will be up and running in seconds.
I noticed that using power savers may disable tethering. Uninstall those as well.

I'm having the exact same problem. I've tried multiple tethering apps and none of them work and last time I tried using open garden it broke my 3G and I had to revert to a backup. I'm running MIUI 10.7.
This may be a dumb question, but can root users use the 3g hotspot found in wireless settings for free? Or do I need to download another app.

All depends on the ROM. If you're running the stock ROM but just rooted you'll need another app. Some ROM developers hack the built in app.

Try "android-wifi-tether", version 3.1 beta 7. Go into settings and set device profile to the S2.
Worked fine for me this a.m.
So it appears to be working with android-wifi-tether however I permanently have the "Security policy restricts use of Internet Sharing" showing on my screen (when I activate the tether) until I reboot the phone, can anyone else on Juggs 5.0 confirm they have tethering manager in titanium backup or can they get Wifi Tethering to work without the feature added to their account?
Try the app barnacle wifi tether.

It's included in my plan as well and I'm on AT&T. Not sure if it's a Premier thing though, but my data plan came with hotspot as part of it, and it's not the data sharing plan.
When I tried to enable it, it told me to call 611 to activate it.
+1 for foxfi on ATT.
AT&T will force you to give up unlimited data plans to enable this from them and it's another $15 USD / month. I believe the context of the OP is without carrier plan.
If you have no unlimited data and can stomach the $15/mo, more power to you.
Foxfi doesn't work for me but I found a way to get native tethering work on this phone but your phone has to be rooted to do that:
1. First you need to delete TetherProvision.apk system app. Either by root explorer or TB. Removing this might cause a FC when you try to turn Mobile Hotspot on in Settings (happened to me) but keep on reading.
2. Go to Google Play store and install Power Toggle and add the Wifi tether widget to your Homescreen.
3. Boom ^_^.
Excellent! Thank you for finding this.
Or flash 15 toggles from the Development thread. Mobile Hotpot built in + flash light and others

The app posted supports only ad-hoc connections according to the description.
I haven't seen any android versions that supported ad-hoc connections by default. You've always needed to replace wpa_supplicant to make ad-hoc networks visible to android wifi devices. Note that you can broadcast ad-hoc without changes. You just won't see ad-hoc networks without changes.

i really dont get it, what's the point of tether apps like PDAnet+ or Foxfi?
The default built-in tethering functions (wifi hotspot, usb tethering, OR bluetooth) work fine and free. am i missing something here..?
I am guessing they meant they are running the sharing app on another device (since they mentioned tmobile). So the tmo phone is sharing the tmo connection and nexus 7 is using that shared connection to access the net.

O really? is it because tmobile detects the built-in tethering and does not want to allow it? Because i'm with Rogers (canada) and i've been using the built-in bluetooth tethering (JB 4.2.2) of my cellphone data plan to my Wifi tablet (galaxy tab 2) for a long time now and it works all the time.

So I went to the (how to guide) here and it describes how to get it with the wifi tether app and being rooted... well ive done that mate.... and I check my t-mobile account and it still uses my 2.5 gigs of free wifi tethering.... is there another way?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
If you already have a plan with free tethering what exactly do you expect from this? If you use data, it's going to show up on your account as being used whether you are tethering or not.
I don't expect anything I just thought the WiFi tethering would show up on on my data plan which is unlimited. My tether plan is only 2.5 gigs plan. It does the same as the stock hotspot tethering. Which in turn renders that app "WiFi tethering" useless. Its no big deal just asking the guide said he could use unlimited WiFi tether and T-Mobile didn't charge him for unlimited use... that wasnt the case for me....

It works for all data going in and out of your phone. And it all depends on which vpn you choose. A lot of free ones slow down data speeds to keep it free. Paid ones do not.

If your with Tmobile... use the my tmobole account app
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
STEP 1
"STOCK ROM"
-download "1 click tether" from the market...this will force the internal tethering to turn on
OR
Run an AOSP rom, internal tethering is unlocked in aosp roms
STEP 2
once youve figured out step one, you should be able to tether, whether on aosp or tw ,it dont matter....only problem is, tmobile will soon block you because of your user agent on the computer
so you have two options...
1. download a browser on your computer that supports changing your user agent...chrome, firefox...ect...change the user agent to something other than windows...you can now use unlimited tethering on your browser.
NOW.....This will only give internet to the browser, not the computer globally...The only way to get global tethering on every program on the pc you'd have to set up a VPN...via the phone or via pc...VPN's are usually not free thou
My setup
-Running CM10 ROM
-Using the internal tethering option in the rom
-I use google chrome
-In google chrom i use this extension called "user agent switcher" https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher/lkmofgnohbedopheiphabfhfjgkhfcgf
-everytime i open google chrome i change the user agent to "safari on mac"
DONE
Yes try vpn hideman.
