Which device (manufacturer, type)?
HTC Droid Incredible (Verizon)

Which firmware is installed?
CyanogenMod 7.0.3 (Stable)

What version of wireless tether are you using?
3.1 beta 2

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install app
2. Start Wi-Fi tethering
3. Try to connect to the network

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The app does not appear to be issuing IP addresses to client devices.

Please provide any additional information below.
My Google Cr-48 will try to obtain an IP address, and then give up and say 
"Failed to connect"... My iPod touch will connect, but has a self-assigned IP 
address, no DNS server, subnet mask, etc., and can't connect to the Internet or 
anything else.

I have the same issue except it was working fine then all of a sudden devices 
could not get IP address.  Is there some file or other that can be cleared to 
see if that helps?

If anyone knows where there's a log file or some other file that will help, I 
can upload it right away.

I tried switching to ad-hoc mode (wext) and my Chromebook crashed trying to 
connect to that. Infrastructure mode (softap) doesn't crash it, but my 
Chromebook just never gets an IP address. I'm using the device profile 
"Generic", I have encryption off (turning it on did not change anything), I 
have the channel set to "Auto", WiFi driver reload is on and access control is 
off. I also tried reinstalling binaries and configs, and that didn't help 
either.

Ahm. Cyanogenmod comes with an built-in tethering-option?!? As far as I know 
... the chromebook does not support "joining" adhoc-networks.

I was using infrastructure when I found that in this problem. Also, I saw that 
option in CM7's settings and assumed it was Verizon's $30/no. option. If CM7's 
built-in tethering is free, I'll just use that instead.

I enabled "routing Fix" and I got it to work. Give it a try.

Enabling "routing Fix" worked for my HTC Evo 4G also.
