I have a HTC Rezound that is unlocked and rooted. I use wifi tether 3.1 beta 11 APK for my wifi tether. I check marked router fix in the settings menu.

My iPad 2 finds the connection just fine, and is able to tether to my phone wirelessly without any problems, however, I recently bought a PS Vita and I would like to tether it to that while I'm on break at work so that I can play online games with it. But when it searches for it, it won't find it. When I try to manually connect to the network, it also fails.

There is an option for manual connection, but I can't figure out what the default gateway number is and what the subnet mask is, ip address, primary DNS and secondary Dns, it's just a little too complicated for me. Even though I believed i entered in all the right numbers and had no luck.

Anyone have suggestions or anyone have success connecting to a gaming handheld?
 
The iPad 2 ip address is something like 192.168.2.1 where the ps vitas is 169.254.86.14 not sure if it makes any difference

And tell me if this sounds right. The wifi tether on the rezound is 192.168.2.0, does this mean I have to figure out how to change the ps vita to a 192.168.2.x? Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and also the default and secondary DNS is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
 
That Vita is auto assigned by the Vita. You need to either assign a static IP based on what you said in the 2nd paragraph, or find out how to get the Vita to release it's auto assigned IP.
 
Ok, first thing's first. With Wifi tether it's one device at a time. It's not a hotspot, it's a 1-to-1 connection. The 169 address you're getting on the Vita is a fake address assigned when it can't get an IP address from DHCP. So like the above poster said, turn off wifi on the Vita then turn it back on and try to get it connected to your Rezound again(and only the Rezound)
