I have a Evo 4G with CM 7.1 I have used the built in app, but it will not work for my needs. I have looked and used android wifi tether for root users, but I don't think this will work either.
My set up would include a desktop (wired to router), laptop, wireless router, and phone.
What I would like to do is use my phone as a backup connection if my home internet goes down (which happens enough). But since all of my devices are not wireless I have an issue of connecting to the internet though the phone. So I am looking for an app that would allow me to share my phones internet though wifi, but instead of the phone becoming an AP. I would like it to connect to my wireless router. From there I would set up my default gateway to be my phones IP address which would route the packets to my phone. This way all of my pc's and internet enabled devices could have a data connection when my home internet is on the fritz. Now I know alot will say the phone will not have the bandwidth to support that many devices, but I will disagree becuase in my testing I have got 1.7down .7up consistent on my phone which beats my awful home internet at 1.5down and .5up.
