After some other tinkering (IP settings, security, etc.) my router uses the wifi tether to my TP2 as the WAN connection and everything I plug into the router will see the internet through my TP2.
The only problem is, if the router loses power, I have to log into the router GUI and re-establish the wifi connection.
I occasionally play GTA4 on my PS3 through this setup and it is playable. If Sprint gets busy during peak hours, gameplay can be lagged, but for the most part it works. |
i haven't ever tried it, but, what if the Linksys was left in infrastructure mode, but turn off it's DHCP. Then set wmwifirouter to attach to the wireless not in ad-hoc mode? I would be thinking this should let devices like a wii still attach to the non-adhoc wireless, and it may not need manual intervention on a power cycle of the router? I have been wanting to try this at some point but haven't gotten around to it.
