After enabling tethering on my iPhone 4s (running 5.1.1) it takes like five minutes for any other device to see my wireless network.

Does anyone else have this problem? And does anyone know if there's any tweaks which can improve my tethering experience? Having to wait so long to tether is really bothering!

Also when I do finally connect to my iPhone to tether, if I connect through my iPad for instance, if I turn my iPad screen off even for a minute I notice that it for some reason automatically disconnects from my iPhone and I have to go through the entire process of reconnecting both devices. Is there a jailbreak tool which keeps an iPhone tethering connection active for longer than a minute without use...
