I've had good results with Barnacle Wifi Tether. It only offers WEP.

I had less success with Wifi Tether for Root Users, but others have used that app successfully.
 
Wifi Tether for Root Users works right out of the box, no changes are needed. You want the one with a yellow icon.
 
Oh good I was getting all worked up but the only thing I can tell is there is no recovery cwm for this phone yet. Man I sure wish it had one. It took a bit of bull sing to get them to reset the service. Oh well I need to make a decision on this phone quick before I try take it back. I think it meets our needs. But got to get tethering. I will be around here working out kinks thanks to all you folks developing for this phone its a little low market but please here me when I say thanks from the poor folk who can't go out and buy an evo 3d. I might keep it for my wife just have to get it rooted. She loves her custom stuff.
Edit I just reread the statement about wifi tether working out of the box thanks Leslie Ann.

By "out of the box" do you mean the OE doesn't have to be rooted? The only phone I've ever rooted was the Optimus V, and this one looks WAY more complicated. TIA - sheureka
 
Tether had so far only worked on rooted phones. I use wifi tether for root users and some others have had success with barnacle wifi tether.

Tether requires root.

The App worked right away (though seems to be having issue now, I have to investigate).

On the Evo V, you have to change 3 settings in the app for tether to work.
