Re: Internet for home network using WMWifiRouter

I think what he wants to do is use his phone as the service provider. In other words have his home's wireless network's connection to the internet go over and through his wireless router. This is possible, but you will need a router to support it. If you have any of the routers supported by the dd-wrt packages, then you can flash your linksys router and then try to have your linksys use your phones "WiFi-Router" as a bridge to the phones 3G connection so long as your flashed router can see the phones Ad-Hoc network. This should allow you to have multiple PC's and devices with a local IP addressing such as 192.168.0.XXX whether your using DHCP or static IP's on your local network. Btw, folks the WMWRouter and HTC WiFi Router application dont actually turn your phone into a router. They just start an AdHoc network. A simpler solution would be to just use your phone's internet sharing and apply all the hacks that can be found on this site, and set up internet sharing on a pc in your home.
