I was also having the disconnect problem with WiFi Tether, so that is why this option being made available is so nice for me, even though it is only 3G. But personally I absolutely LOVE the factory USB Tether feature. I most always only have to connect one pc, I don't have to broadcast anything, and the phone is being charged the whole time I am using it, instead of being drained. I never had any problem with WiFi Tether on this ROM using versions of a couple months ago or so. So I am not sure if it is Froyo or ROM related, since I don't run anyone's ROM but Chris's.

Update: I just tried WiFi Tether again and it ran exactly 4min before disconnection, and the phone was cold to the feel, not hot, so I know that isn't a part of the problem.
