Root [Virgin Mobile] Boy am I screwed

Btw reflashing it worked

Good deal. If you flashed the APN fix, then turning off WiFi will make data kick in automatically.

Question for you struckn that I couldn't find an answer to...
Does the APN fix need to be flashed each time you flash the ROM or is it a one-time flash & done deal?

It will hold through a dirty flash, but if you are switching to an entirely new ROM or doing a fresh install of any kind, flash it in the same session as the ROM flash.

The advice from @nathan75 and @GreyCelt is correct, your laptop might just be warning about the strength or reliability of the connection.

I mean, technically it's not free because you are still using data and we only get 2.5 gigs before we're throttled down to 2G speeds or whatever. However, by using the tethering that comes with these ROMs you're not paying extra for tethering service.

Look through your Windows settings, network connections. There is a rather unpredictable setting for "Trusted Networks". It provides a way to automatically use different security levels for different "hotspots". I've had trouble changing it in the past. Sometimes you get a prompt the first time you connect so you could also try deleting or forgetting the connection and hope for the prompt/choice.
