Getting Saga to work as Wifi Router Hotspot

edwashere · #1 (**permalink**) 03-29-2009, 05:51 PM

I have the Saga and I like it very much.
I am trying to get it to work with WMWIFIROUTER software to enable it as a Wifi Router Hotspot.
I have it working except for the cellular side with Verizonwireless.
In order to use it, you have to have ICS installed which I do.
That was a hard enough task, but I cannot get it to work as a hotspot.
(I want to be able to connect to the wifi side as a router to use my ipod touch, my laptop, and other wireless devices).
Has anyone tried this yet?
Does anyone have some tips on how to get it to work?
I think I must have something not installed correctly.

Thanks.

I have this working on my Saga. Not sure what else to do beyond what you have done, ICS and WMWifi. Have you reset the phone in between installs?

i also have a problem with this, however, i can not get internet sharing to work at all, i am very frustrated beacuse nothing seems to work.

In Internet Sharing UI i select pc connection as usb , but for the network connection, it only says none, even when my cellular data is running , how do i have it recognize my cellular data network?

Worked fine for me. I just installed wmwifirouter and ICS. I also did the .NET framework update before I installed anything.

WMWifirouter not working on a Saga, although it works great on an Omnia. ICS works fine on both via USB. Symptom is that clicking on it from File Explorer seems to not really launch it. Both have the official Verizon updated (GPS-unlocked) ROMs. Same versions of ICS and WMWifirouter on both, although I don't see any way to determine exactly which versions those are... I think my WMWifirouter version is 0.91 or earlier. Which version(s) worked on Saga? Searched MS site but didn't find a .NET update -- just the whole 2.0 and 3.5 frameworks. A link would be great, or is it not needed with 2009 ROM?
