WMWIFIRouter and TP2 woes
 
I have done two hard resets, but a thrid one I am sure will confirm this. My has made itself unable to use the internet except for wifi tethering after installing my version of WMWifiRouter. It possibly is due to me running such an old version, but it seems to make it unable to connect. I spent an hour with tier 2 and 3 tech trying to solve this issue. I figured it was this program, but I didn't tell them as it could possibly violate my TOS. Has anyone else encountered this issue. I have seen a bit similar issues, but no one seems to point to this program as the problem. Can someone post the HTC Wifi cab for me? I have also noticed if I turn the screen off I lose my connection.

Thanks

I have noticed that when i run wmwifirouter my internet on the device only works through the tethering, I have to softreset for it to work again

if you power the screen off by hitting the top button you phone turns off, with htc wifi it will do the same thing. if you are running an older version of wmwifirouter then i have no advice for you i'm sorry. but with the latest wmwifirouter I have no problems and no over heating issues.

This was not the case with previous phone... Mogul, Apache and TP were fine with turning the screen off. Overheating and the battery not charging fast enough don't seem to be an issue with the TP2 though.

After a hard reset it is confirmed that WMWifiRouter is the issue. Can people who had this problem post the version they were using? It might help the author in debuging or others who have this problem in the future.

Mine looks to be .91

I realize you are running the free version, but I can tell you that version 1.52 works perfectly for me in 4 different phones including my newest (a VZ TP2)

The final free version did not work well at all for me.

I haven't had the problem you're experiencing, but I've had tons of issue's with WMWifirouter over the past. Unable to uninstall, locks up the phone, screws up the wifi which sometimes cannot be repaired by doing a crash restore. Just use HTC Wifi Router, it's simpler and far more reliable.

not necessarily.

I have both programs installed in my TP2. For some reason, my LT will not recognize the HTC connection but connects immediately to WMWIFirouter.

I haven't spent any time messing with it because WMWIFIrouter works fine so I'm not going to waste any time on the other one, but WMWIFI gets my vote. I paid for WMWIFI & I would buy it again myself......

My TP2 using wmwifi via usb freezes a few times a day for months now but I also have it downloading at 200+/sec constantly so I'm sure that has something to do with it. It hardly EVER does it for normal internet usage (web pages, light gaming, messengers, etc.)

I don't personally Stealth Tether via this route, I use:

Tom_Codon CM Wifi Internet Sharing (for Wifi, obviously)
(Some Internet Share program) (For USB)

However, since my laptop is down and out right now, and I am using a PC that came with Win98 (upgraded to XP Pro SP2), USB is currently my only option (however it works, so no complaints here).

Viva Ninja Tethering (:-$)
