I'm trying to tether my bionic to any number of laptops/desktops with built-in wifi or a dongle (Win7), and it keeps getting stuck on "Identifying". I read that this was a problem on some Intel wireless cards but none of the devices I'm using are Intel-based. I've tried changing channels, turning encryption off/on, all without any success. What else can I try?

> My phone is rooted and I have tried 3 things - android wifi tether (both stable and betas), barnacle, and the SQL hack to change the entitlement bit to 0.

>> I have a fairly good idea of what I'm doing here.

Ok, turns out it was an issue for whatever reason with the IP address. Changing it to 192.168.1.2 solved my problem.
