Root Wi-Fi Tethering

Now that we have root for the Rise, is it possible to use it for tethering? If so, what tethering apps are the best, as in causing the least problems?

Wifi tether for Root users is usually a safe bet. Might have to play with some settings on it to get it to work right...
 
Get Wifi Tether For Root User

Open the app and go to settings
Change device profiles to Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Click on routing fix
Done

You should now have WiFi Tether.. add a pass code if you want

I used to use barnacle until I had the evo... barnacle didn't like the Evo, but wifi tether worked the best.

wifi tether is what I used on the Rise, and it works nicely.
 
If it's on Virgin it amounts to an exercise in frustration considering the abysmally slow 3G speeds.
