Options for free GN hotspot / tether?

[mastawyrm]

I know the wired tether app i always used required that you have a kernel with iptables support. My guess is we just need to wait for someone to build that kernel. Or build it yourself

Can someone with a GN try to access the EPST menu? Go to the dialer and type in ##778 and click "dial." Choose EDIT, then enter password 000000. If it works, don't do anything, just back out.

If so, you can use the oldest trick in the book.

##778 = dials a non working number

Or, you can read the other thread specifically about this app that confirms Verizon can and will start charging you for tethering since it doesn't route data the same way PDANet does. You can also stop spamming the forums by advertising your product in any topic that remotely mentions "tethering", while you're at it.
