Not good! Wifi Tethering with Sprint Hotspot has a Big Problem!

[Gunflight]

When I connect to the hotspot I get full Wifi bars if the phone is running in 3G. If I turn on 4G the bars drop down to 1 or 2 and that’s if I’m 6” away from the phone. If I move 10’ away it drops off all together. If I shutdown 4G I can go 50’ away from the phone and still get 2 or 3 bars. This is crappy because I tether off the phone all day every day. The Evo 4G never had this problem. It had great tethering performance. Can someone else check to see if it’s a widespread thing or I just have a bad unit? The problem only occurs when 4G is activated while tethering. Not good.

Thanks.
