I was told I could not Wifi Tether on Ipv6?? But I AM?? Ok here' what I did and try it . I have the LG G3 Android 4.4.2 T-Mobile. Wifi tether works on it too but first i got to start wifi tether on the APN i created ipv4 and connect to my labtop. Now when I"m connected go to settings on my LG G3 phone to APN settings and click back on Tmobile set APN ipv6. It works and faster. I google ipv6 and it said ipv6 wont wifi tether But im wifi tethering on ipv6 now. Well i was hoping you could do something with this. If you got tmobile just try my steps and see it works.
it depends

This is not uniform for android. There are some versions with support IPv6-Hotspot/Tethering and there are some versions without.
The google-version of android (nexus series) doesn't support IPv6-Hotspot/Tethering.
Good to Know
I Never new that. Im new to android. Took me about 100dollars and a Bricked phone to figerout how to root android. Lol!!. Well it works on ipv6 LG G3 tmobile for tmobile users. Thank You.

quick question for tethering (undetected). I have read it might be detected based off of the apn name used. So what is the apn settings used for remaining "undetected". I currently have a jailbroken iPhone 3g that I will be retiring that I do this with now.
Best bet is to root and then get the wireless tether for root users app.

I believe 3.1 beta 14 works when the right settings are used. Search around on here, I know I saw it somewhere.

Hmm, I don't now if that's true or not and if you had to use a different APN based on plan...Then I imagine if you didn't have that plan, connecting to that APN wouldn't work And if one proxy server can detect tethering then why wouldn't all of them do so?
I think I would look into that "tether guard" app and I would also use a method through the debugging mode of the phone.
Debug tethering, have to google that one
Free tether ? Something like that, the app costs $10 but I thought it was worth it back when I was on Sprint.

wifi tether works perfect, the debug tether is detectable, any other ideas? for a "wired" tether?
I can't get OpenVPN client to work on my Nexus 5 when on Tmobile's LTE connection. Works just fine when on WiFi, but when on LTE it just sits waiting for server. My Nexus 4 on the other hand is working just fine on both WiFi and TMO LTE (it's rooted with LTE enabled). Anyone else has this problem?
Thanks in advance.
If anyone cares, I figured out what's the cause of it. By default Tmo LTE uses IPv6 and OpenVPN has a problem with it (or my vpn server). Changing to IPv4 solves the problem.

hi there, this was the exact problem i was having today, thanks for posting about it. i assume you're using the openvpn connect on your nexus 5, right? how do you disable ipv6?

go to the APN settings (Settings-> More-> Mobile Networks-> Access Points NAmes -> click on the entry that is selected (should be the T-mobile GPRS fast.t-mobile.com)
scroll down, change APN protocl to ipv4
then save
Why would you need a VPN for on cellular can it bypass the throttle?

Thanks a bunch, that does indeed fix the problem with OpenVPN running on DD-WRT.
@markdapimp Security, all of your traffic will be encrypted and originate from your VPN's network

Yes but can you trust your VPN provider and even then if you trust them do you trust your VPN Providers Datacenter and if you trust your VPN provider's data center can you trust their network connections.
T-Mobile is apparently supporting IPv6 for certain phones.
I wasn't able to get the APN to "stick" on my year-old CM9 / Hefe Kernel and my build chain is pretty hozed up after a year of inattention, so I can't quickly check to see if IPv6 is enabled in the kernel or if there is a config/build setting somewhere that I missed.
Has anyone had any success with the SGS4G with this (on any ROM)?

I had my phone with CM 10.1 JB 4.3 set to the T-Mo IPv6 default APN setting and it worked fine.
Didn't try going to any IPv6-only sites, but the internet was still working and APN specifics said that only IPv6 was enabled, no IPv4.
Edit: Just followed the directions on my currently ICS CM9.1 (10/4/13 version) and while the internet works, it's still IPv4 only despite being set to only support IPv6. ipv6.whatismyv6.com returns unavailable.

You may be only getting an ipv6 link-local address. Hence the 'unavailable'. I'll check this out on my kernels.
Anybody experienced when enabling tethering by Wi-Fi, DHCP appears to be broken where no IP address is given out to any connected client, such as a laptop from the LG V10? I know it used to work prior to transitioning from AT&T to T-Mobile. Now, after being on T-Mobile with my AT&T LG V10 (H900), I cannot test if it works properly on AT&T, just in case it has something to do with T-Mobile configuration. I'm on T-Mobile One plan with unlimited data and the 10 GB hotspot feature. My AT&T LG V10 is on Android 6.0, with build # MRA58K, software version H90021y. Android security patch level of 01-01-2017 and last update indicated on 02-14-2017.
I have already tried going through Settings-> Backup & reset -> Reset -> Network settings reset; it doesn't fix the DHCP/no IP issue.
Tethering w/T-Mobile & EasyTether now counted as tethering (SIM1/SIM2 issue or DPI)?
Hi Everyone,
Been using my OP6 and loving it on TMobile. I noticed, as with other unlocked phones, tethering with EasyTether USB does not get detected as tethering...until today. For example, last month I had 0.0GB Tethering and did occasionally tether with Easy Tether.
My cable modem was acting up today and I switched to Easy Tether to do a WebEx video call (and forgot about it)...and happened to check and they counted 1.1 GB of tethering in 4 hours -- ouch!
The only change was I switched the SIM card to SIM slot 1 a few days ago, as it had been in SIM 2 because of some VM clearing issue I read about.
I am wondering if they detected tethering in because of SIM1 vs. SIM2, or did deep packet inspection and picked something up?
BTW...I also noticed today that tethering was slower than it usually was...not throughput which is usually 70-80Gbits around here, but more latency (like they were monitoring something).
Has anyone gotten WiFi Tether Router working on this phone? Any other thoughts?
BTW -- I did switch back to SIM2 because my VM's have not been getting erased since using SIM1. Also rooted on OOS 5.1.9 if that matters.
I also have a 3 year VPN subscription so I can avoid DPI but it's a hassle...

How are you using it? Without a vpn or with a vpn? Because I have read Sprint and T-Mobile are really looking at vpn usage, And T-mobile has been warning people and Sprint counting as hotspot. I personally on my own if no one knows about this would run it over a https tunnel, then your vpn is hidden the software is called stunnel. Many vpn providers use stunnel now, you just have to enable it.
Just noticed it has been awhile since they were last on here.

This will cover you 95% f the time, and you don't even need VPN or EasyTether:
1) Install VPN Hotspot (great open source app), use it to turn on system WiFi tethering, and then route all the traffic over WAN0 even if you are not using a VPN.
2) Note that root su "Settings put global tether_dun_required = 0" should do the same thing, but you can do both to be sure.
3) Install Change TTL, set enable on boot, and tell it to set TTL to 64.
Now occasionally, T-Mobile will still detect some tethering, but it only picks up maybe 5%, and even if you go over the limit they don't seem to be able to throttle since your traffic is routed over the non tethering APN. They may also be detecting some because I am not sure if Change TTL supports IPV6...the IPV6 TTL setting is Hop Limit or HL and since TMobile uses IPv6 by default...? To test this if you care, you could setup an IPv4 APN.
Regarding VPN -- I think they may automatically count this as tether, but I don't really know. I have NordVPN and a PPTP VPN to our home and vacation home and could test further, but I haven't because you don't really need a VPN.
Hope this helps,

What is the limit on tethering? I've never run into a problem but don't use it much either.

On my plan TMobile 1+ for business it is 10G before throttling.
One month my home internet was down and I was tethering and had switched to iDrive cloud backup from CrashPlan so for two days it was just blasting data through the tethering connection. It registered 35.1 GB Tethering and 389 GB of non-tethering (nearly all tethering) and was still not throttling at all.
Besides that one special case, I have never registered more than 1 or 2GB tethering using the method outlined above even though I have probably used well over 10 a few times....

Sounds like I don't need to worry about it then. I only use it for my android deck in my truck. Mostly music
