Re: Did Sprint cancel "Phone as Modem" services altogether?

My friend uses this everyday and always complains about the connection having to be re-established every 2-3 minutes with both tethering and wifi. Has anyone experienced a similar issue?

this is odd because my wmwifirouter is not allowing me to connect either.
i can establish a connection with my laptop & usb, but no internet connection...something seems odd. anyone know whats goin on?

i've even uninstalled then reinstalled without any luck....anyone know what's goin on?

Why would you call sprint if you were using a custom rom? ](*,):scratch:

Works for me using mightyrom. Just tried it now. I just clicked the internet sharing option when it pops up when you connect through a usb cable.

ummmmm.....actually you fail unless sprint somehow has the ability to know what rom your using without you mentioning anything while your talking to customer support....

If you need to use the program, you'd be better off getting the paid version, as this doesn't seem to cause problems.

finally figured it out...i think for some reason the app TellMe somehow corrupted my wmwifirouter....i hard reset and reinstalled, works great now.
