Using Mogul as Modem

It is lighter, and initializes faster than the new versions. I've been using ICSControl a lot more these days as well. WMWiFiRouter v1.2 sounds promising though, so I'm gonna give that a shot whenever the public beta starts.

Can you give me an idea on what the settings should look like for ICS control I also have that installed but it looks intimidating with all those settings, maybe you can point me in the right direction of what to change the settings to. thanks again for the cab it was quick and painless.

It is really only as complicated as you want to make it. Your "Public Interface" is, as the name suggests, simply going to be your connection to the outside world. Typically this will be your cellular line (unless your trying to do something fancy, like using your phone as a USB WiFi card for your non-WiFi enabled PC). Your "Private Interface" is how you are going to share your connection locally. To achieve the same functionality as WMWiFiRouter, you will need to choose your WLAN card (TNETW12511 on the Mogul) as your private interface. Then I just set my private IP as the conventional 192.168.0.1 (not totally necessary, but it keeps things simple) and hit "Start ICS."



*Note - before starting ICS, you will need to have an adhoc WiFi network already set up. Then go into your WiFi control panel and select Computer-to-Computer connections only.

I'm not sure if there is a tutorial anywhere or not, but you could try the thread at XDA where the developer posted this program. I don't have a link handy, but it should be easy to find if you search ICSControl over there.

The beauty of this program is that you can share connections any way you please (although I believe this kind of ability is supposed to be introduced in WMWifiRouter v1.2 as well). For the example of using your Mogul as a USB Wifi card, you would just set TNETW12511 as your Public Interface and RNDISFN1 (that's your USB connection) as your Private Interface.

You can delete the "ForceCellConnection" folder if u want the Internet Sharing app to look like how it was on the previous ROM versions.

There is a cab floating around somewhere to import the reg entry for you, if you're not comfortable editing it yourself.

I've attached v.91 of WMWiFiRouter. This cab will also set up an adhoc WiFi network for you with the name "Free Viruses!!" (you can change the name, or set up your own peer-to-peer/adhoc network if you want, that is just the name I chose). Make sure your WiFi switch is in the on position before activating the program. Give it a try and let us know if you have any more questions

Edit: Sorry, give me just a second to upload the cab.

thanks man your the best! been looking for weeks for this program works great. i only have one question. it seems to be working without starting ie first. it should still be tethering using the sprint pcs connection only right meaning sprint should just see it as just normal data usage, no charges right. i did do the reg edits. man your awsome man. just downloaded cab then i was good to go. whoooooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo! one more ? the unlimted simply everything plan, is it or is it not limited to 5gb now. i keep seeing yes and no. anybody with a fosho answer?

Hey...Well I got some of the same questions here is my problem...
I was using Wmodem on my mogul for awhile with no problems. I connected to my old Laptop(no Wifi, or Bluetooth) as my primary connection. Well that Mogul took a crap not because of the internet sharing, just speaker and mic to talk on the phone didnt work. So sprint replaced it, I have a new one.

Well let me get to the point...I downloaded the new rom 3.56.
Just want to know the best way to use the internet sharing thru USB and not wifi or bluetooth cause my Laptop is old...lol. I know I need a new laptop...Thanks for telling me.

Any help would be appreciated....Thanks again.
