Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91

I'm having some issues....

I have a Verizon TP. I first installed wmwifirouter .91 on stock verizon rom and it worked great for weeks. One day my wifi stopped working and i couldn't think of one thing i did that would have messed with it. I had to hard reset. Back to plain, fresh, stock rom i installed the app and it worked great until i decided that i would add WPA authentication onto the adhoc connection and rename it for convenience (WPA is said to not work with adhoc connections). the strange thing is that wifirouter still worked for about a week until i changed the adhoc connection WPA password and renamed the connection again.

After that i could not get my wifi to connect to its own adhoc connection. It finds it, wifi router will connect to it, but my wifi would not get p***** the "connecting" stage in the wifi settings. Now, my wifi would connect to my home infrastructure network but would not do anything. Example being gremote would time out and not work on 2 pc's that never had a problem before. I tried removing authentication from the connection, still wouldn't work. I removed the connection and manually recreated it, still nothing. I tried uninstalling wifirouter but it would not uninstall, which meant i couldn't reinstall it. I upgraded to a new version (which added both versions in my program list) which didn't fix my wifi issues.

I was looking to flash with custom rom for various issues so about 2 weeks later when i finally got the motivation to flash and redo my phone i installed mighty rom (which is pretty cool). Once i got everything going i installed .91 and gave it a go. Same issue. Wifirouter created the default adhoc connection but my wifi wont connect to it. Its finding all the connections around me and the wifirouter adhoc connection, but wont lock on it. I haven't even added authentication to it. I have yet to test gremote but this kind of sucks. Any ideas? how could it do the same thing after a hard reset?




BTW - the newer versions of the app are slow and buggy. They take way to long for wifi router to connect and the connection seems to always get "reset by remote party". .91 is fast, simple, and best of all.......FREE!!

Thanks a bunch.
