Wireless tether app not giving me 4G speeds

[O.G Incredible]

I'm using wireless tether in a 4G area getting about 10mbps but when I'm tethering I'm only getting 1mbs max! most of the time is actually less than that. Any one else have that problem, is there a setting that I need to turn on? Please help. Thanks in advance

I've noticed the same thing. I'm not sure, but I was thinking it might be a limitation of the WIFI connection. If you were not using LTE it wouldn't even be close to 1mb/s.

Which version of tether are you using? Have you tried the new 3.1 beta 2?

1.21 giggawatts Thunder

I don't think that's the case because I was getting faster speeds with mobile hot spot

I'm using the one from the market 2.0.7 I think it is. I'll look for 3.1 and give it a try

Ok I I tried the 3.1 beta 2 version and that didn't work. As a matter of fact ut wouldn't even let me tether unless I was in a 3G area, on 4G it would kill 4G and bring it down to 1x ? ? What's going on here? Any body else? Do I need to use a different radio? Is anybody else able to tether 4G speeds?

having same problem!!! wtf! Getting up to 40mbps down on my phone and barely 2-3mbps down when tethering to my laptop. Have tried every tether app I can find. Did you find a fix??

Maybe Verizon decided to throttle connection for 3rd party tethering apps because my Mobile Hotspot is moving right along..

because thats all your gonna get you never gonna max out your speed. Mbps isnt the same as MB/s

Um, what? I remember when I used the Hotspot tether (official one) it was much faster than what this Wireless Tether is. And hint: MB/s = Megabites/Second while mbps = Megabites per second. Those are the same thing.

b = bits B = Bytes.....big difference!

I have the same issue and I have tried a few different ROM's. Back when my phone was stock and I had the free MHS it smoked right along. Now it's in the 2-3 range. Used to be around 15.

Try using this app I haven't had any issues with it.

Well, I've been learned. Thanks.

 

[romiust]

going to try this, as I have had the same fproblems

That's the one I'm using.

which version? The most recent version of wifi tether didn't work on my rom, but wireless tether did work.

I've never been able to get wireless tether to work very well. I've tried a bunch of versions and radios and it has never really worked for me. I've kind of given up on it.
