Problem with using WIFI

Hey guys, I was using mightyrom for a while, but noticed my internet was going really slow, so then i swapped back to spront. Ever since, the only thing I could get to work decently, was the internet sharing with the sprint fix cab. Im trying to use my phone as the modem, is the point.

Well, I was able to wifi it before, but now im having issues.

If i use wifi router, it seems it no longer allows my pcs to connect to it. It either doesnt show up in available networks, or it just never connects.

Now, when I use WMWRIFIrouter, a paid program {im using the trial} it does work. But the problems with that is, it wont charge while its running it seems. Because even though its plugged in, the battery still dies after an hour or two. The other problem is that it just gets so hot, and Im not sure if thats going to ruin the phone or not.

So Im looking for a little advice on what to use that I can use as a wifi connection for both PCs. Also, that as long as its plugged in, it will keep going, so I guess one that allows charging while its running.

Id appreciate any help.

Open the keyboard when you tether, it helps with the heat, if it gets too hot it stops charging to protect itself.

oh, Thank you. I kinda had an idea that might be why it stops the charging. Cause when I plug it in at first when I start it up, it seems its charging. But I come back after an hour, its hot and the batterys almost dead.

I really appreciate ya confirming it. Guess Ill try the open keyboard and hover it on the AC vent then,lol

I have a piece of aluminum, I take the back off and lay the phone on it, it never has an issue.
