Once you do that, run the wifirouter application from the program menus and within a few moments you'll have a useable wireless signal for your other devices to latch on to.
Very good info. I personally don't see why anyone would use this. I tether all the time but I use my USB cable so that I don't kill my battery!!! Works GREAT!!!! Besides, if I have my phone, and my laptop, then I have the USB cable too.
