So I found this thread a while back and read through the entire thing. It seems like a lot of people were having a bunch of issues.

My question is how many of you are running this app? Can you shed some light as far as the proplems you have had with using it? I would love to not pay Verizon the $15 a month just to tether to my laptop once in a while, but I don't want all of the headaches that others in the above link have stated they were having. Any insight would be much appreciated so I can avoid some of the problems others have reported.

Hi i saw this thread while i was on my phone and i got it on there and tried connecting it to the iphone at work since att disconnected the network connection on it and just was like ooo that has wifi lets see.... But anyways i got it to connect to my wifi but it was as if no data connection was there even though i was connected through the broadband connect, is there something i can do on my end to fix this?

Plus i wanna scare the crud outta my ATT rep at work cause she knows they turned the internet off on it but has no idea how to even use wifi on it, lol

I run WMWiFiRouter at my g/f house because she doesnt have internet access. Ive had only one nitch sometimes i get a message saying 3rd party has ended the session im not sure whats going on with that it might just be a setting i need to change but after i dismiss it i can continue to surf wirelessly it really is a great program. Some have said there are issues getting it to work in the first place but i have had no such issues just follow the instructions given to first use IntShrUI (connect usb cable) establish internet connection then disconnect reboot phone use WMWiFiRouter and it should work fine. oh and i use .91

Using the 0.91 version, I couldn't use the internet on my phone using a Wifi Connection. Not sure why but I did 3 hard resets and reinstalled everything but the Wifi would not connect to the internet.

You have to have the internet sharing files... Verizon takes them off by default because they want you to pay the extra $10 a month for tethering... if you search on the forum you should be able to find the files you need and instructions. just search verizon and tethering. Hope i could help and good luck... if for some reason you can't get it to work let me know and i'll try it on mine and write a brief how to...

I have the .91 and it works fine. Occasionally when I turn off the phone to charge it and turn it back on, my WiFi in the connections disappears, but a crash cleanup on WiFiRouter and a soft reset brings it back. What is the difference between .91 and the 1.20?

I get this same thing, it is close to connecting but my computer can't get any data. Connects to the wifi no problem , but no internet..
