Re: Wireless tether with 4G ????

If you have good 4g signal, this is the way to go imo.
I have 4g working with wireless tether. Although I was in a full strength 4g area, the link was no faster than 3 g. Tested speed on phone itself with the 4G and it was normal , but when tethering, the speedtests on laptop were seriously lower and no faster than 3g. It seems I read somewhere that wireless tether was designed for 2g and 3g speeds but nothing about 4G. Can someone do a speedtest when using wireless tether in 4g and see if they get same results? I have mobile network disconnected when using it in 4g mode and tried different channles, etc, no difference. As I said, when I tether via USB , this is not an issue , as everything works fine and my 4g speeds through tether are normal ( tested in same 4g area) .
I am using 2.05 pre 7 as the others do not seem to want to play nice with my rom. I don't believe this makes a difference from reading about the newer versions as they are mainly for compatibility with new models coming out, etc. If anyone has any ieas or can validate speed , please drop in a post. Thanks
