I read that the Desire HD has 802.11n but when I've created a WiFi Hotspot it shows a 802.11g while most of the other networks around me are clearly shown as 802.11n.
Does the Desire HD lack 802.11n? Or does the WiFi Hotspot disable it?
I would say that when DHD is acting as a wifi router it doesn't have the capability (or it's disabled) to broadcast a 802.11n network but it can definitely connect to a 802.11n network.
Can you confirm that it does indeed only run as 802.11g when acting as a Hotspot? (Each WiFi adapter I have is the same so I'm wondering if its a issue with my adapters)
Also I see no reason why they'd limit this, my DHD is my router and I'd love to have much better WiFi speeds on LAN transfers!
So I try to run wireless tether 2.0.7 and i get nothing.... Anyone have success with any version of Wireless tether?
assuming your rooted .....
i use wireless tether for root users wifi_tether_v3_1-beta6.apk
this is 4g but creates an ad-hoc connection
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
there is also the sprint hotspot hack
3g only but creates an infrastructure connection

Thanks.....
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

Use the hot spot app in calks it does infrastructure

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.
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.
To clarify first and foremost, I'm looking to tether Wifi to Wifi. Not Wifi to 3G as normal (aka FoxFi and such)
On the iPhone, there is the most popular tethering app MyWi for jailbroken users. It allowed you to tether in all kinds of ways.
You see, some devices cannot connect to my school's network over WiFi. But, my iPhone could so I would tether the WiFi connect to the WiFi hotspot so that devices like my Roku box or PS3/360 could connect to my iPhone to get internet from the school.
So basically,
School -> iPhone -> PS3/360/Roku
Passthrough WiFi
I miss this on my Android, and I see that when you use FoxFi - it turns off the WiFi connect to the school AP and only tethers to 3G/4G. I don't and can't really use that for something like gaming.
Anything like MyWi on the Android at all?

Only way I have been able to get WiFi passthrough is by plugging my Note 2 into a USB port on my PC or into my router if your router supports USB through 3G/WiFi
