Re: WIFI internet Sharing HTC WI-FI Router/ WMWiFI

Damn.. no replies since I last posted my problems with WiFiRouter. Since then, the problem has not gone away. I've confirmed the same issue does exist on a completely different laptop. However, it appears the wifi card just locks up or something, causing it to be inaccessible to the phone. The result of this is sometimes, wifi is just missing from Wireless Manager, or is unable to be toggled on/off if present. I have to reboot the phone to get it to work again. I've also determined that this most often happens when the reception is weak, i.e. a good data roam signal combined with a weak sprint signal. Since this phone has no "Roam Only" it can switch to the weak sprint signal, causing all sorts of problems eventually locking up the wifi in the phone. Anyone else experience this? I'm going to try the latest update to the phone and if that doesn't fix it, I'll likely exchange it before the warranty is up. I just hope it isn't a design flaw.
