There is a new test-version of the app online. This new version renames the
name of
the wireless-interface. No idea if that helps for this issue here but ... give
it a
shot please and report your results.

Thanks but didn't make any difference we got it figured out at sdx forums the
problem
is our firmware didn't allow tethering, so we swap out firmware now it's
working.

Sure we replaced ourrtecdc.bin with the one from Leshak wireless tethering app,
located here
http://forum.samdroid.net/threads/610-Dev-Testing-WiFi-tether-for-i5700-Eclair-u
pd-19.04.
We also had to use his dhd.ko, as ours doesn't support netfilters, our dhd.ko
caused
the phone to reboot if the kernel had netfilters.
For some reason or other our dhd.ko and rtecdc.bin doesn't allow the
communication
needed to tether, but Leshak does, and they work great in the moment.
With these files changed yes I can use any version of your app, however without
changing them I can't.
If you want the files, I can upload them for you, Does this site support
uploading zip?

It's now possible to have more than one rtecdc.bin-file on the system and I've
implemented rules/a new strategy on how to load it.
1) Loading from sdcard: If you put the rtecdc.bin-file (which is needed for
adhoc) to
"/sdcard/android.tether/rtcdc.bin" this file is loaded and not the one in
/system/etc. If this file does not exist ...
2) Loading alternative rtecdc.bin from /system/etc. If the file
"/system/etc/rtecdc_adhoc.bin" (which can coexist beside the original one)
exists, it
will be loaded.
3) If the files for 1) and 2) are missing. The "original"
("/system/etc/rtecdc.bin")
is taken.
This should be implemented in the latest -pre-version available here:
http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wireless_tether_2_0_2-pre13.apk
I think we are not allowed to distribute the rtcdc.bin (copyright) that's why
we are
not going to integrate that file into our app.
Please check above version. Thanks.

Thanks that will do it, I looked over the code and yes it works well, we had
been
renaming the original rtecdc.bin to rtecdc.bin.bak or rtecdc.org, but your
ideal is
better using from sdcard or renaming the new rtecdc.bin to rtecdc_adhoc.bin so
both
rtecdc files can coexist in /system/etc.
Thanks again
