I heard there are two ways to get free wifi tether.I don't know which one is safe or if that even matters.I know people here are more experienced than myself so this is why I ask for help.

I used this method here to get my wifi tethering using adb.
How to Get Free Wifi Tether on Your Atrix 4G! | Atrix 4G Hacks

These links are the ones that I found which talk about different ways to get wifi tethering to back up my question.

If it's just an adhoc tether devices like the xoom won't connect, better to use apn tehering

[Timelessblur]

how do you get that first one to work. My computer refuses to connect to my Atrix when I do the first method.

Root your phone then you can use Barnacle

Just use the one that comes with it method. Found it at xda check there.

I rooted my phone, modified the APN to bypass the check, but 2.3.4 broke that. There is now a hack where you edit a moto pref file and change a database entry. Once changed and the phone rebooted the check is removed completely and you can use the native WiFi and USB tethering as they were meant to be used.

that worked for me and was simple as pie

yea was able to tether also however I dont really have to at home but its nice to know I can do it tho...

I used the db editor method. I still get a pop up warning about my account has be authorized. I'm able to ignore it and continue. I guess that means it works and it won't be known that I'm tethering?

depends on your carrier... for me tethering is included in my data plan so i dont need to worry about that on rogers... tho other carriers may care and trust me they can tell...

AT&T will start placing people who do unauthorized tethering on a plan. If you are in the group, you will get email and a letter about it.

Make sure you go to your browser, go to 4shared.com - free file sharing and storage, and type in wifi tether. Scroll down until you see "Wifi tether v3_1 beta" and make sure you have unknown sources checked or it won't work.

How does this work better than getting the built in tethering to work?

This worked like a charm for me as well....Thank you sir!!

Try "barnacle" (Google it!) ... all you need is root and the app. Best method I have found.... much better than the stock app.

Enjoy! :-)
