Question WI FI re-broadcast

OK guys, you guys are the smartest group i know to ask. So here is the problem.

What im trying to do is connect my phone to my computer for my internet connection (which is no problem) but what im trying to do then is use the wifi adapter in my COMPUTER to rebroadcast that internet connection to the rest of my house or wherever i am without having to have the phone plugged into that computer. . . . it sounds a little more difficult that what i think is possible. if anyone has any kind of information they could throw my way. links. programs. whatever helps guys. and if i have this in the wrong forum, im sorry.

Re: WI FI re-broadcast

so you're trying to broadcast the evdo signal to the rest of the computers in your house? if that's the case why not use a program like wmwifirouter that essentially turns your phone into a wireless router. it would be much simpler than running the usb connection into your computer and then trying to broadcast. the paid for versions have encryption. and if i'm not mistaken there is another made over at xda-dev that is totally free and includes wep encryption.

Re: WI FI re-broadcast

A lot of new cooked roms comes with wifi boradcast cooked in. However, more often than not your device won't be able to handle 1+ active connection so letting computer do broadcasting works better in some case.
