Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Ok, So I am having the GAYEST time with wm wifi router, and even just strait USB tethering.

Can some one please give me steps for doing this?

For Wifi router, I installed the ICS or whatever .cab, but when I run wifi router says it is waiting on ICS forever. So then it won't work.

When I tether it, I installed the "tethering" fix cab from Smartphonejunkie.com and then hit internet sharing, and it does nothing. Says it is identifying, yet on my phone it says it is connected....?

What am I doing wrong? I have looked through all the posts and just can't seem to put it together...Thanks everyone who helps!

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Me too. Sprint TP stock rom running the "cleanup package" only (which changes ICS to "sprint" instead of "PAM".

Installed the FREE .91 version of WMWIFIRouter and my laptop was surfing online in less than two minutes. No further tinkering needed, it just worked. Not sure why everyone else is having problems.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I just sighned up for the 21 day trial and WMWifiRouter is working great. Wireless, USB etc.
My connection says SPRINT and once you set it up initially, it is plug and play.
I am using this app because my regular tethering via USB with my Diamond was working as Phone as Modem only, after working fine for over a month.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Not sure I understand you. .91 was developed and released as freeware. I downloaded it, installed it and am using it for its intended purpose. What part of freeware don't you understand?

Oh BTW - Go Sharks! ;)

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I use version .81 on my TP and it works perfect. Unlike the newer versions you have to create your own adhoc wireless connection, but it isn't all too hard. I didn't need to use any tweaks or whatever.

I installed the Sprint cleanup tweaks cab before though. The only reason I use the .81 version is because my Mogul couldn't install .91 due to some issue with a setup.dll and this was the only version that didn't have a setup.dll. I never downloaded a newer version and it works with the TP so whatever. I used it on a busride from New York to Boston and it worked great.

Support should be given for v.91 regardless, especially since the license it was issued in was freeware. It doesn't matter if later versions were shareware. Also if someone asks how to work their paid GPS program, why should they need to prove ownership of the program for someone with some knowledge to provide help? As long as we're not provided knowledge to crack software.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

What are the additional benefits of the 1.25 version? I have a Sprint Diamond with the stock ROM.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

i think its just easier to setup since it automates the creation of the adhoc wifi network on your phone, but that's easy enough to set up on your own and to set it up with a WEP password. The newer versions I think lets you adjust the WEP password in the actual program.

Functionality-wise the pre-shareware versions work more or less the same as the later ones.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I will just stick with the free version. Anyways one day sprint and all the companies will block these programs anyway then what? he gonna give you a refund lol

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I found a CAB for the 1.25 version and downloaded it which overwrote the trial vaersion. I was using the CAB for a few hours then all of a sudden I could not access the internet even though the app said I was connected.
I tried Internet Sharing with Phone as Modem and that did not connect either:scratch:
I thought the cab was creating the problem so I deleted it and downloaded the trial version again. No luck so I reset the Diamond which I should have done in the first place. I was back in business.
I am still using the trial version of 1.25 because I don't want to have any problems.
The CAB did enter all of the parameters automatically. I didn't have to click to enter anything. The trial 1.25 does everything for you but the CAB was even quicker.
With the trial version, you have to click on TRIAL but the CAB does not enter TRIAL. It enters some sort of registration so I assume the CAB bypasses the 21 day trial.
I would go back to the CAB but I figure the app is worth the $30.00.
The CAB is designated as v1.25 600 something.
I wanted to be specific with this info just in case someone else runs into the same issues I had.
I thought the WMWifiRouter had been compromised:(

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I had that happen to me too. I install the trial and get online, it instantly says trial id invalid and demands a new key.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Just to clarify my previous post, There seems to be 2 CABS:
One is the v1.25 Version which downloads with a 21 day trial. It also prompts you for a registration key but all you do is click on TRIAL.
The second is the v1.25 version 600 Build. When you download this version, it enters the registration key for you which I think bypasses the 21 day trial.
I had issues with both until I soft reset my Sprint Diamond.
I am now using the 21 day trial version v1.25
I figure it is worth the 20 euros or whatever it is.
Also, I have been reading that there is a v1.30 coming out very soon. Was supposed to be available a couple of weeks ago but the v1.30 has some bugs with certain devices but the bugs should be worked out very soon.
Can someone verify if I am correct regarding that thaese 2 CABS do what I described?
One is available from the WMWifiRouter site and the 600 build is available on other sites on the web.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Check post number 7 here:programs, tweaks for a walk through, and the cab for the free version, it works perfect for me...

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

ok so i went to the WmWiFiRouter page and download the latest one, I installed it, selecetd the sprint as the conection manager and i have succesfully connect my laptop to the web. Is there anything else i am missing? I have not installed the ICS, will i get charged or do i have to installed the ics anyway?

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

1. You can tether with a USB cable using ICS for FREE. No software needed.
2. You can tether with bluetooth and ICS for FREE. No software needed.
2.a (Maybe you'll need MightyMike's FREE ROM)
3. Why shouldn't a software developer get paid for his work, whether or not he offered it for free or as shareware or as donantion ware or WHATEVER! You sound like a bunch of whiny socialists. "CORPORATE GREED"? You've got to be kidding me. Two guys working out of their garage is now an example of corporate greed? Are developers not entitled to earn something for their labors? If they sell a lot of software and expand, guess what...They'll have to hire more developers. That means jobs for you and me.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

i don't mind paying or donating all i am asking is if Sprint the Multimillion guys will charge me for either using WmWifiRouter or any other method of tethering

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

They will if you are set up to tether with "Phone as Modem" which is the default. If you have successfully changed it to tether via "Sprint" you are good to go.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I, am I'm sure others here, get your point - we see your position. We may not agree with it but we see it.

To me, freeware = free (& legal) and donation = optional. If I choose to donate that is purely up to me. That does not make me a whiny socialist. You can continue pounding the soapbox but I'm done.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

If you don't have PAM and you use your phone as a modem in any way, shape, or form, including ICS/Modem/WmWifiRouter/PDANet, you are very likely violating your TOS.

Sprint (to choose one carrier at random) does not seem to care, but can detect this usage no matter what you do... but that doesn't change the violation.

Proceed at the direction of your conscience/guru/priest/rabbi/mullah/whatever-sorry-if-i-left-yours-out.

Yes, we should all be more clear about stating the obvious truth of the above fact. I shall personally endeavor to harsh everyone's mellow by doing so from time to time in all tethering topics in a hopeless attempt to bring harmony to teh intertubes.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

you shouldn't feel bad about using v.91 even if the later versions are paid. If you wish to get the extra features of 1.25, then by all means pay for it, but don't let anyone convince you that you are obligated to pay for the newer versions just because they are shareware now.

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.

Man yall really know how to beat a dead horse with a stick dont ya...

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

what exactly did He do wrong here?? he politely asked a question and of all things, found an old thread to post in, instead of opening a needless new one.. kudos to the HIM!!!!

and to the new poster, sorry, i'd help ya out, but not until, at the very least.... u buy a lisenced copy to help support the devloper...

and v125 has never had any bugs for me, nor v120 before that.. most people absolutely LOve the newest version, but hey, we all disagree sometimes right lol...

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

This is one app I find so useful, I'd feel guilty for not paying for it!

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I am having the exact same problems. I never had one single problem with WMwifi in my old Titans (I just installed it with the wizard & it worked) but I can't get it to work in any of my TP's to save my life.

I have the paid for latest version installed in a Sprint TP flashed with a scrosler ROM & activated on Verizon.

WMwifirouter shows up as an available wireless network in my ipod touch & in my laptop along with my home linksys wireless router. If I click to connect to it, both the touch & the LT seem to connect to it just fine. If I then try to open a site, it tries to connect for a while & then says "server stopped responding" & never ever connects.

If I then click the linksys instead, both systems connect immediately.

I have tried redoing all the settings with no password or security of any kind enabled & even then it won't connect. I set the wireless LAN on the highest performance setting & that made no difference.

I am at my wits end here, I have no idea what else to try here. Does anybody have a clue WTF I'm missing here??

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I have the v1.25 and everything is working well. After the trial, I will pay the $30 or so as it is very much worth it to me.Obviously if my Internet Sharing was working as it did previously, I would not need WMwiifiRouter. But as I mentioned before,Internet Sharing is now connecting as Phone as Modem. But WM is connecting as Sprint which is fine. WM well worth the money and very easy to use. Works by itself:)With the issues you are having and since you have the paid version, maybe you can drop WM an email as they have Customer Support for the paid version and also free upgrades for any future versions. v1.30 is around the corner as per WMWifiRouter.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Well, if wifi router isnt going to work for me, does anyone know the workaround for verizon tethering?

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

If wmwifirouter isn't working for you its your rom not the software I have extensively tested this even on the stock sprint rom. It works very well. and I agree with Biker1 if you have issues drop an email to customer support that is watched and thats part of what causes new revisions is bug fixes. So please if you ever have issues report them

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Astain is right. I use this profusely to show off to my friends with iPod Touches trying to look for access points ;)

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

I did that one week ago, they never responded.

~John

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Connecting my 16 gig ipod touch to my unlimited VZ data is the main thing I want to use Wwifirouter for.

After using Safari on the touch, I never want to use the TP for browsing again. Not only is Safari awesome, I can actually see the screen on the touch outside in bright sun...........

~John

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

the program uses ICS to connect so if yours isnt working that could be the root to your problem. Most VZ users i know with ppc's cant get ICS to work lol

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Well, I got it working on Verizon ( reflased my ROM)

I just used the touch online for twenty minutes hooked to the TP & it worked super.

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

Does anyone know what I need to put for the wep password in .91? I need to secure it so my neighbors don't pirate my connection. When I tried entering my own password it said it didn't match with the program or something like that.
TIA

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

+1, took me less than 5 minutes to set up. Works perfect, no cab but easy to delete the program though.

And Here is a new thread for everyone who wants to have a discussion about warez or other offtopic crap, or if you just want to ***** about a certain thread or whatever. Let's not clutter the threads people. If you have a problem with a thread or a post, PM a mod, let them do THEIR job (not yours), and move on with your day.

Re: Wm Wifi Router
 

wow you guys are babies not who i quoted everyone else with the going back and forth don't post warez and don't get off topic if you can't help DON'T POST
anyway to all having problems your rom probable doesn't have the internet sharing hack and your carrier can see tehtering and block it their is a cab i believe in the essentials if anyone needs it pm me i will post a link later when i have time to but basicly you always have needed to delete and certain reg entries like rilphone and stuff from internet sharing folder and change certain values to 0 on internet sharing keys in reg pretty obvious if you search through reg however do not delete rilphone from anywhere else or better yet search through tho mogul forums many discussions but ill post cab anyway some entries are so obvious it not even funny i think one even said disable pam or disable internet sharing and stuff like that but basicly you will make windows show carrier it using info not passing through as pam it will connect as phone but i believe it is the various roms that are what is allowing some and not others but this will def fix the issues of people showing data con on laptops and it not getting any packets the phone isn't forwarding them simple as that and as far as wmwifirouter if you have it great if not be legit and if you not sure pm before you post and many will help you. but you should not do anything for .91 and up just install it and run it will even turn wifi on on our phones only phones thaty don't are ones that have hw switch

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

dude, if i think something is funny i will laugh at it...go put some ice in your panties and cool your jets bruh


ANYWAYS...excuse me for trying to help?? Some people need to be more grateful these days...

Re: Tethering with WMWifiRouter .91
 

try the cabs below before these hacks should work fine for everyone i also have man install files avail that jus need to be copied to the windows folder if anyone needs if anyone else still having problem tell me what rom your using and i will test it out and find a solution for you

sprint

att
http://www.fuzemobility.com/how-to-s...-the-att-fuze/

verizon should be same as att

some believe these haelp hide tethering to
HKLM\Software\OEM\WMODEM
"add DWORD "CheckProfile"=0"
"set DWORD "Multi-NAI"=0"
"set DWORD "WModemDUN"=0"
i personally believe that these are not necessary anymore however they can't hurt the multi nai if anything is the only one that probably does anything useful.
this used to work on my mogul if anyone still having problems try
(delete) the registry key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing] "Extension"="rilphone.dll" this will fix error 67 if that your prob

internet sharing install cab encase anyone needs i have heard vzw doesn't include if thats case simply install then run this shouldn't need any hacks
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/attachment...8&d=1228026795

and for the lazy run this cab to do the hacks works for me i do it just to not take chances if this doesnt work refer to instructions above
