No Network Connection

OK, this has got to be somewhere in this forum, but I just can't find it. Sorry if I'm asking for information that's already posted.

I'm trying to use wireless tether. I rooted using unrevoked 3. I downloaded free wireless tether 2.0.2-pre14. Wireless tether fires up just fine. My computer sees it and says "connected." However, even though I am connected to the EVO, I get "no network connection" or "no internet access" errors. I can access the internet just fine on my phone; just not from my computer.

What can I possibly be missing?

Re: No Network Connection

I think the Wireless Tether is the wrong one Its not working on Evo it works on other types of phones. I think 2.05pre11 is around the lastest that may work on Evo. I am on OMJ 3.8x that has it built in as many other Rom Builders incude one version or other of it. Maybe try one of the custom roms that might have Sprint Bloatware removed.

Re: No Network Connection

Also, reboot your computer. Alot of people get on here and post after trying wireless tether with the exact problem you describe and rebooting the computer solved it so try that before anything else.
