Seems I’ve been stopping by here frequently lately. I have been bouncing between PDAnet and PairVPN for my internet needs. PairVPN, however, it stopped hiding my usage from MetroPCS. So, I went back to PDAnet+, even with the slower speeds…but now, PDANet won’t stay connected longer than 10-15 seconds. It says connected, but I can’t get to any websites. Then, 10 seconds later, it says “Reconnect Failed”. When I look at the PDANet app on my phone, where you check the box for USB Tether, it says, “USB Tether. Please Connect from your Computer (forced closed).” No error message, nothing. I’m looking for any alternatives, so I have other options when this happens. I’m sure PDANet will be right back to normal come this weekend. It seems to do this randomaly.
What are you trying to tether to? A pc or router? If pc try EasyTether or Clockworkmod tether. The best way is to get an openwrt router and use EasyTether to feed it Internet and then disperse over wifi
hmmm…okay, I’ll look into it. It’s PC. I was on PDAnet trying to respond to you and reddit wouldn’t load on it. It would say the No Internet chrome page, but PDANet says it’s still connected. SO now, I’m back on my normal hotspot, using my data even though PairVPN is on. I tried looking for EasyTether, but I thought it was free? Everything says its 10 bucks, and I really don’t want to spend 10 bucks just to have the same problems as PDAnet and PairVPN
Found this cause I needed a hotspot. Clockworkmod tether works amazing! Not the biggest fan of having to be USB connected, but hey, it works great! Great recommendation!
