[REQUEST] Wi-Fi Sharing running in AP mode (Non Ad-Hoc)

I'm trying to get my phone to broadcast wifi as a normal router. I don't want Ad-Hoc mode because a few devices I have don't support Ad-hoc mode. I've tried playing around with the options in WMWifi Router to try to get router like wifi sharing but I haven't had any luck. Can anyone help me out?

Thanks.

IIRC the chip isn't designed to handle multiple wifi connections.... so its not going to work...

Just to clarify my first post. I'm not intending to connect multiple devices to my phone. I just want whatever I'm connecting to see the connection as a normal router/access point, even if only one device will connect to it at a time, I don't care.

The main reason I want this is because the Zune HD currently does not have ad-hoc support. If I could get internet access for it wherever I go, just think of all the music you could download on the fly.

Re: [REQUEST] Wi-Fi Sharing running in AP mode (Non Ad-Hoc)

I've been looking for this exact thing for some time now. What I do is tether my phone to my computer and then use the program from http://connectify.me/ with one of the access point cards... I use this http://www.microcenter.com/single_pr...uct_id=0305492 This will broadcast the wifi network you need. I know its a horrid work-around but does the trick when trying to connect things like the PS3 that don't see ad-hoc networks. Probably should mention that this particular program only runs on a PC runing windows7.

That's actually a decent tip, but you are right... big pain in the ass.

While the connection in the ad-hoc "Computer to Computer" mode, it's even able to handle multiple connections in parallel which means it makes the HTC smartphone a real mobile hotspot.
