My tethering connection via USB or WIFI hotspot has been disconnecting lately, and it's usually after transferring between 40-50MBs.
Tethering stays consistent and does not disconnect if connecting to my works VPN, via a new network connection in XP/Windows 7.
Can anybody explain why this happens?
Thanks,

Hey all,
having a bit of trouble holding a USB tethered Wifi connection with my G1. It has the latest CM installed. When I leave it connected for a period of time, the USB connection (not the Wifi) will drop out, leaving me with an inability to access the internet on my PC (still works fine if accessing internet via phone browser).
I am currently at a loss as to what it could be... I have the screen set to not timeout, so it is not the Wifi connection dropping. Any thoughts?
I can launch the wireless tether app and browse the internet on my laptop (even stream netflix without a problem) but when I turn off the tether and try to reconnect to my own WiFi network at home it won't connect to my router.
It detects the network and shows the full 5 bars but gives me an error message when I try to connect.
Resetting the router (by turning it off and on again) fixes the issue, but I want to know if there's a way to avoid all that.
Hi,
I need to tether my phone's wifi connection via USB. When I tether my 3g communication everything goes well, but if I connect to wifi and try to tether it, my phone does not tether it.
I am currently using a HTC Hero (2.3.3). Any solution suggestions?
Regards
note: I have to tether my connection via USB. It is a must for me.
So i have a pretty complicated network setup right now due to my normal home internet dying and technicians never coming to fix it, so i'm now using my phone on 4G, use the wifi hotspot on that phone, go downstairs, use another phone to connect to that hotspot and use usb tethering to get internet on my pc.
The issue right now is that i can't seem to be able to communicate with my desktop pc (connected by usb tether) with my laptop (connected on wifi hotspot)
any idea on what software i could use to fix that?
My android phone is usually on wifi at home. My laptop has some wifi chip/antennae issues so I have to either connect to the network via a lan port or, alternatively, use android phone usb tethering. If I am connected via the latter, on the laptop I observe that I cannot connect to the router network - I cannot even access the router login page.
I don't know a simple term for this feature. I guess it works like a network switch. But is there any app that, when enabled would help me connect my laptop (when usb-tethered) to the wifi network?
