Root Tethering issues

I am having trouble, tethering my Spirit.

On the phone, speed test I get about 4 to 5 mbps down, and 2 mbps up.
When I tether it to the computer through the USB cable, it is extremely slow.
So slow I can only get half the page before it times out, and other pages never load.
Using WiFi tethering, the computer connects to the internet, but all the pages time out.

I am rooted, and I have tried, a half dozen different apps, with the same results. Or they don't work at all.

Using my old Samsung Galaxy 1. worked fine in tethering 3g.

Tried it on a Windows 7, and a XP machine. Now I'm just stumped.

Any Help would be really appreciated.

Thanks
 
you can use the built in tethering, go into settings/more/ 4g mobile hotspot, you'll have to change your use agent in your computers web browser.

That is the first thing I tried. Did not work. Rooted, that did not work. Changed use agent that did not work.
 
I use the new pdanet+ with the foxfi key (so its not limited). Works like a charm. I use it with my xbox 360 (when my cable modem is acting up) and with a desktop/laptop computers.
