So I rooted, deleted the at&t blocker that the tethering thing does and tethering works.... kind of. My laptop can only connect to my phone if it's an open network. I wouldn't be worried if i wasn't at a college dorm and if i had the unlimited, but I only have the 2gb's and don't want to use them to fast


so anyone know why i can't connect my laptop to my phone when the wireless tether is password protected?
