Just use the mobile hotspot. Problem solved. Just make sure the hotspot is encrypted though. Don't use WEP though.

Oh OK. Sorry about that. There should be some apps on the android market that would let you do that. That's how I did it I a while back. Try easy tether lite.

The answer is: It depends. Depends on what infrastructure your company has in place to track your movements should they choose to. Even going through a proxy they could still sniff the traffic to your box if they so chose. I'd have your butt in a heartbeat as soon as that device lit up on the network.
I can tell you that where I work the mere act of putting that on your device and it's use with the intent of bypassing corporate restrictions would get you fired on the spot. Is it worth it?
Well I'm logging on to the customer lounge WiFi... guess the question would be could they tell its me and not a customer ...

Sorry, just woke up so it didn't process. If your incredible is not company provided, then no. They would just be able to tell you're on an incredible, and profile you based upon the sites you visited, if they wanted to go through the effort. But if it is from the company, IT should have its MAC.

they cant do anything about it.. although if you do hit 5GB bandwidth, they'll throttle your 3G for that remaining month.
thats about it and you can monitor it via t-mobile.com -- you should be fine as long as you arent using it to download huge files

Pan tether only works on Google?

I'm tethering my triumph to my Archie using wireless tether for rooted users..it connects just fine but I can only go on Google web sites on the archos (client)..but the triumph (server) has full access ..YouTube works but can only browse cannot watch vids...can only browse marketplace cannot download any apps...any help guys

There is a way to get your computer,laptop,notebook, tab to work with barnacle that program looks like it does all of the stuff you would have to do manually through cmd or what ever your using. Google is very helpful that's how I found out about doing it manually. There are manual directions out on the same forums listed in the link provided.

I found another thread on motorolatriumphhacks.com and it says to change the mtu on the client device but it needs to be rooted and there was just a new software update so I'm waiting till a root is avalible for the new software
. I have cleared the cache partition in my triumph to see but no go.. is the issue because of the mtu being set to high? Or a DNS issuer? Thank you for all your help I really appreciate it guys..

Yep looks like all you need to do it change the mtu to 1472 on the client (I.e. laptop,tap,computer etc.) And you should be good to go.

So the trick is to set the mtu to 1472 or under.. on this page it says how to set MTU on android device..but it needs a root to do so..
Sent from my MOTWX435KT using xda premium
Yeah that's the only work around at this point but it works great. You can also use the pdanet app or easytether. You don't need root to use those only this is you need to use your USB cable to wire tether and they cost money. There alternative options if you don't want to root.
Sent from my MOTWX435KT using XDA App
My program was really nothing more than an extended version of finding/setting the right MTU (for dummies, lol).
You shouldn't see any text when you open it. It should just run.
This is what I did for Barnacle. It may work for others that are limited to google only sites....
open start panel
type cmd
press ctrl+shift then click cmd to open as administratror
copy and paste ---> netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface "Wireless Network Connection" mtu=1472 store=persistent
hopefully barnacle tethering works
I use wireless tether for root users on my triumph and I use it to tether Bluetooth pan.

Honestly, not even sure what you are asking. Why do you want to appear connected to a Wi-Fi connection if you are on anything but Wi-Fi? Am I understanding this correctly? Either you are on: 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, etc. when connecting to data/network. Can you please elaborate more on what it is that you are wanting/asking?
I was trying to use video chat on the road and it told me i had to have wifi. I have 4g and i conveniently had my gfs phone to use as a hotspot but i was just wondering if she wasn't there i would have to stop somewhere with free wifi

True, video chat apps most likely will require a Wi-Fi connection in order to perform.
So i figure that there would b someone who knows a way to manipulate it

You can always try one of the many apps from the Market: Skype, Tango, ooVoo, Qik, etc... see if one of these works for what you are trying to do.

I don't think there is one, if there is, I am not aware of it.

Unlimited 4g workaround

Unlimited 4g. I'm sure you've all heard about it. I went and checked it out. Apparently the only catch is you can't hotspot. But since I'm rooted and running cm7 I should be able to still use hotspot with a third party app, right?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Tethering is built into cm7, no need for an app.. and you might need to change the user agent on the device you tether so you don't get the tmobile redirect.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
I am on the unlimited 4g, if I use Firefox, default settings, it seems to work fine. IE blows in the first place, but for the sake of mentioning it, and doesn't work, routes everything to a page telling me to buy tethering. I can also torrent just fine. I guess part of it is just the port it's set to listen on, 80, and if there is activity on other ports, so what.
Edit: also, SSL sites work.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I use the hotspot for my laptop and my lady's g2x. She is on the monthly 4g I'm not concerned with using my laptop, it's her g2x that worries me. I don't see how tmobile would catch on. But I wanted to run it by you guys before switching and potentially voiding my contract
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
so what your saying here is that if i switch to the New Unlimited Nationwide 4g data package i wont be able to tether my tablet to my phone?
That's what they told me but (I may be wrong) if you are using a custom rom or just rooted with a thrid party hotspot app tmobile want be able to detect or stop you, right?

I use Google Chrome & change the user agent. Give that a go.
How do you do that without an add-on
