After thinking about this some more, I realized I didn't do a soft reset between installs. After doing this, I finally have success!! It seems that I get disconnected if I let my screen lock come on, so I have to either keep the screen active, or look into disabling this. Below are the steps I followed for any other XV 6800 users trying to figure it out.

- Created Ad Hoc Network as described:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1630553&postcount=2

- Ran WMWifiRouter.cab

- Downloaded ICSInstall.zip (linked below

- Extract the files from the ICSInstall.zip to your computer

- Copy ICSInstall.exe, ICSInstall.bin and cf.cab to your device

- Install cf.cab on your device

- Downloaded ICS_Non_OEM.zip

- Extract the files from the ICS_Non_OEM.zip into /windows

(I think there was something to install included in this.)

- (if so) Soft-reset

- Install cf.cab on your device

- Soft-reset

- Run ICSInstall.exe

- Click Patch

- Wait 'til it says Done

- Soft-reset

- Test ICS ( \Windows\IntShrui.exe )

- Delete ICSInstall.exe, ICSInstall.bin and cf.cab

My ICS says Check USB connection while plugged into the computer, but I had seen posts saying this was normal, and it did work using the wireless after this.

I am Using WMWifiRouter 0.85

Thanks to all who contributed helping me figure this out!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Doesn't make much sense though, as ICSInstall.exe overwrites the files from ICS_Non_OEM.ZIP... But glad you got it to work :) (you should use v0.88 though! =p) Also, the hacked files from those posts should not be need (and are indeed, also overwritten).

It's just a big bundle of weird! :) I need one of these devices in my hand to fiddle with...

Also note turning the power off may take a few tries to get to work, and WiFi icon (in windows bar, not in WMWifiRouter) should be 'connected' before you do it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rongara:
ok, I installed WMWifiRouter again on my Polaris-device and first it worked - I could easily go online with my notebook.

Now WMWifiRouter stays at "Turning on Wlan" and nothing changes for minutes. I already used the crash cleanup-option, but iddue persists.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
You tried a soft-reset ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rongara:
Of course I did :)

I also removed the ad-hoc connection in WiFi configuration and tried again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Checked the code. Seems like it's waiting for ICS to get busy.

Can you try just running ICS and see if sharing over USB still works?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] PeterI:
Has anyone got this working with a linux based machine? I can't seem to get my Asus eee to talk properly to the router. If I run in adhoc mode I can get a DHCP lease but the DNS doesn't seem to work (system reports it as 192.168.0.1) I'm a complete newbie with linux so perhaps I'm doing something stupid.

The phone & router seems to be OK from my Vista machine so I'm at a bit of a loss here.

Any thoughts?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rongara:
Checked ICS via USB and BT - both are working. After that I tried it via WMWifiRouter again and it still stops at "Turning on Wlan".

But at least 3G/GPRS and Wlan itself now keep working on the device itself :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
You should now be able to download the CAB directly through Pocket Internet Explorer. I think you will need the installer without network settings, though I have a suspicion it won't work on your phone. Let us know, also test ICS first :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Funny. Have you tried just connecting to it when it keeps saying "Turning on WLAN" ? Also, could you run again and wait a few seconds after it reaches "Turning on WLAN" and post here what the value of HKLM\System\State\Connectivity\InternetSharing is at that time? Also you can try switching to ICS itself and pressing connect manually, that may help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
A DNS of 192.168.0.1 is correct (this is the phone's IP, it forwards DNS requests to the servers it knows itself on its data connection, this is normal router behaviour).

Go to the console and do this:

ping 192.168.0.1

ping 83.149.98.107

ping www.jongma.org

What are the results?

If you can ping www.jongma.org without trouble, everything is working. If not... maybe a copy/paste of your 'ifconfig' (command in console) will be helpful. I'm no Linux guru and I only run it on servers and in virtual machines, so I cannot really test it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cyburke:
well my phone doesn't have wifi... it does not come with the sprint version of the htc touch. wifi is of course turned on on my laptop.

the install will not even complete, it just says "unable to install to this location" so then i choose to install to my storage card rather than the phone and it still does not install.

i'm very sad.

:(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
What the hell would you want to do with WMWifiRouter on a phone that does not have WiFi?! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rongara:
Tried it already before: Network isn't found.

Value is set to 7. ( "0x7 (7)" )

I can't press connect as it is already connected. Only disconnecting is possible.

When I disconnect in ICS WMWifiRouter establishes connection again and stops at "Turning on Wlan" again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Ok that value (0x7) is correct though... If you do show log, does it say something like rebind: fail or WLAN not responding? (that message should take approx 15 seconds to show up, if it shows up at all)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xda-ajr:
OK small progress, now ie offers to download it, and then tries to install, but now the install ends with the message:

Installation of WMWifiRouter.CAB was unsuccessful

which is the same as when the sync process tries to install it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Have you tried both different CABs? Have you tried if ICS works without WMWifiRouter?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] y2flyy:
Alright OK I apologize to chainfire and all the other hardworking members of this forum. We are all allowed one cellphone related RANT, aren't WE?

Apologize to you again Chainfire. Thanks for all your hard work

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Now that you have calmed down, if you still have the issue and not hard-reset yet, you can probably fix your wifi by running the EXE contained in this ZIP on your device and pressing the "Fix" button: www.wmwifirouter.com/download/WifiRevert.zip . Soft-reset after use. You could also download and install the latest WMWifiRouter v1.0 trial, then uninstall it again (mentioned a few posts earlier as well). What you should have done was use the "Crash Cleanup" option, and soft-reset, though.

Either one of the above has fixed the issue for everybody who has had similar issues and sent me an e-mail about it, so far.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] y2flyy:
Hey Chain thanks for showing restraint and kindness by not ranting back. I was extremely frustrated by spending half the day trying to get my internet back on my Tilt. Come to find it wasn't even your program that caused this issue (I jumped to conclusion b/c honestly your earlier version cause the same issue)

But what happened was I swapped my sim from my tilt to an unlocked iphone. when I swapped it back my internet was not working until I ran the disable proxy cab under proxy manager. Then it worked! So I was double an idiot earlier!

Sorry again bud. I promise you to buy two copies when u roll them out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] y2flyy:
Also maybe if you can help me with this issue. After switching my sim back to my Tilt from my iphone. the iphone will not connect to the adhoc wifi network using your program on my tilt. It did work perfectly before all this sim swapping.

Maybe you can help me with that?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] y2flyy:
Disregard that last request. I fired it all up again and it worked all of a sudden. Thanks though!!!!

WEP issue with HTC TyTN II (Tilt)

I'm a trial and registered user of WMWifiRouter v1.0 and noticed that the WEP settings would be lost (i.e. connection becomes unsecured) if you switch the network setting security from WEP to None, and back to WEP. The only way I've been able to get the WEP on WMWifiRouter to work again is to toggle the Key index from say 1 to something else. After that, the WEP works. I've reported this as a bug on http://www.wmwifirouter.com/consumer/contact.php but also wanted to share it here in case someone else had the same problem.

Inspite of this, I'm still very happy with WMWifiRouter and gladly parted with Euro 9.99 (after discounts) for it. I'm aware that there are other alternatives but I've been impressed with Chainfire's commitment to improve and refine this software. This makes my HTC TyTN II immensely more useful. Thank you!

iPod Touch with WMWifiRouter on a HTC TyTN II (Tilt)

WMWifiRouter works fine with my notebook and UMPC, but I've not been able to get WMWifiRouter to work with my iPod Touch (v.1.1.4) despite trying what had already been suggested by others to turn off the DHCP allocator on WMWifiRouter and use a static IP on the iPod Touch.

A connection would normally be established and that drop subsequently when launching Safari or another internet application like Google Maps. A large part of the frustration was from not understanding whether it was the iPod Touch, HTC TyTN II, WMWifiRouter, or a combination of them, that was causing these problems. It didn't help either that WMWifiRouter didn't have any problems with my friend's iPhone Wifi connection, just my iPod Touch.

I was on the verge of giving up when I stumbled upon a consistent work-around. I'll write it up in more detail if anyone's interested but the gist of a successful connection seems to be that you need to first connect the iPod Touch to another network (e.g. your home Wifi access point) just before you attempt to connect it to WMWifiRouter.

You will know that you're successful once you have the iPod Touch network option to forget future connections with WMWifiRouter.

I don't know if it's just my iPod Touch, but hope that might help someone else out there struggling with the Touch and WMWifiRouter. :)

How is the battery life when using this program for you all????

It kills my battery life. Wifi in general can be draining to the battery. But not this fast.

Doing some test looks like my battery goes down a little more than 2 percent per minute!

Any suggestions guys? I have been using it to give my iphone 3g speeds. But of course the only downer is my Tilt battery goes down very very fast.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Bungee88:
My suggestion is to wait for the 3G iPhone :)

Seriously, it should come as not surprise that running WMWifiRouter will drain your Tilt battery since you are using both Wifi and 3G concurrently (plus if you set Wifi to Best Perfomance). IMO, the heat that's being emitted by the Tilt is the biggest indicator!

Carrying both a iPhone and a Tilt is a little overkill, no? But if you must, I've read of folks that either get an extended battery for their Tilt, or pair it up with an external USB battery source and essentially use the Tilt+WMWifiRouter combo as a mobile wireless access point. Again, overkill if you ask me ;)

TapRoot Systems says its WalkingHotSpot software will let you use a 3G, Wi-Fi-enabled Windows Mobile or Symbian Series 60 handset as a Wi-Fi hot spot.

Got a 3G smartphone with Wi-Fi? Then you might be soon be able to use it as a Wi-Fi hotspot for connecting your notebook or any other Wi-Fi enabled device to the Internet.

North Carolina-based TapRoot Systems today announced its WalkingHotSpot software, designed to effectively turn a Wi-Fi- and mobile broadband-enabled handset into a Wi-Fi router. At launch, WalkingHotSpot will be available only for Windows Mobile or Symbian Series 60 smartphones. TapRoot CEO Bob Bicksler said.

WMWifiRouter and Eye-Fi

Has anyone be able to get WMWifiRouter to work with Eye-Fi card so that you

can send pictures from your digital camera with Eye-Fi card to your phone then

to the internet?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jaybirds2053:
Enter by mistake twice sorry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Bungee88:
Yes, I think you are looking for a free copy. Not sure what's your point though since trial users (including those that report bugs) do not receive a free copy of v1.00. Rather we get a Euro 5 discount off the purchase price, on top of the Euro 5 early-bird discount.

If you find the software WMWifiRouter useful enough, I suggest you buy it. Otherwise, look for a free equivalent elsewhere, bro.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RemE:
Regarding Tap Root;

"TapRoot ultimately hopes to sell the full-featured product (which supports multiple simultaneous Wi-Fi connections) to carriers, who would be able to offer it to their customers, probably as a paid service. TapRoot does not plan to sell directly to consumers."

WiFiRouter is here today, it works, and it's FOR consumers, not companies...

They claim Patent Pending I believe, hopefully Chainfire has beat them to it....

Thanks for the heads up. I've been pointing all my friends to WMWifiRouter because it's just so freaking cool what I can do with my HTC Tilt/TyTN. ICS Control sounds like a good (read, free) alternative.

I see on that thread that Internet Sharing on the Windows Mobile device isn't required for ICS Control. Does that make it compatible with more PPC devices or something? Cheers.

Just so that this post isn't entirely off-topic, WMWifiRouter got a bug fix minor upgrade to v1.01 today. Kudos to Chainfire for the fast fixes.

I am running the free .91 version and I am very happy with it, is there a convincing reason for me to pay for newer versions? Just wondering...I'm not sure there are a whole lot of new features from .91 that will make me want to invest into this...I will donate to chainfire, though...

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
I have seen many people saying they would try, but I don't think anyone has actually succeeded. There has also been no feedback about this. We might pick up one of these things to see what's up with them at a later date.

Actually I have not, because over here it is impossible to patent these things (and literally a hundred thousand dollars to try). That being said, I am going to speak with a lawyer who is into these things in a few hours to see what we can do about it. I mean, WMWifiRouter is prior art if there ever was such a thing ;)

On a side note, target market is completely different. They cater to the carriers, we cater to everybody. Add to that that their solution is built to be controlled by the carriers, probably in the end severely limited the end-user in how they use it (and automatically getting charged extra).

ICS Control is still dependant on the ICS package. It uses the IPNAT driver directly instead of the application, but it's still from the same OEM package (hmm that reminds me, who made all those installers for ICS ? ;)) - anyone who has ever disected a ROM knows this. Note that an upcoming version of WMWifiRouter will do that as well, as well as offer many more configuration options for the advanced users (ask and you shall receive). Been on the to-do list for ages, but never got priority in favor of other stability fixes. That all being said, please keep the ICS Control discussion in it's own topic :)

A convincing reason to pay for it? How about rewarding me for all the time spent on the development? ;)

Seriously, just save your 0.91 CAB somewhere, uninstall it, try the 1.01 trial and see for yourself. If you don't think it's worth it, uninstall it again and reinstall 0.91. I could list all the small and big fixes, the new features, enhancements, etc. However, in the end most of it comes down to better compatibility with more devices, more stability, and much easier usable for the less tech-savvy. It could well be none of these things apply to you.

Hey Chainfire

I really love your app but I got a problem. I uninstalled it and now my HTC Tytn I crashes and freezes when my normal WiFi is turned on and I switch the device off and then on again. I alway have to soft-reset... This only happens when the WiFi is enabled. I found out that you provides a regfix but that was for Tytn II, do you have one for Tytn I??? Please help...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
No I don't. One thing you should be sure to try is getting the latest version v1.01 and install it, soft-reset, uninstall it, soft-reset. If that doesn't help, contact me through the website's contact form so we can e-mail about it to fix it (much faster than through here). Be sure to mention the version you were using (uninstalling) when the problem first started happened.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SchmilK:
does this new version remove the need to set your pc in adhoc mode for inetnet sharing?? thus giving other devices that chance to connect?

Im checking out your trial version now to see whats up. :)

*edit*

FIrst step in the setup is to have the adhoc connection created :( guess this is stil the same way and I am also guessing this is a hardware limitation of the wifi cards on our phones.

OH well...good job any ways ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rxb216:
Chainfire, i will donate to you for sure. Your version 0.91 just makes my day, I can manually muck with the WEP setting so i am somewhat secured and this makes me happy. This version fits all my needs and is so much nicer to use that the lame hacked DLL method i was using earlier. Your work is greatly appreciated.

Chainfire, I downloaded your trial version 1.01 onto my AT&T TILT, installed with no problem. When I ran it, I got "remote computer has disconnected" and the program tried to connect again with the same results over and over again. Will your app work if I don't have the tether plan? Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GuidoZ:
Excellent app - works flawlessly on my Mogul. I made an OEM that anyone can use in a kitchen (DCD, NeuChem, etc). Simply extract the following ZIP to the OEM folder then build your ROM like normal. Once your device boots, you can either go with the trial or enter your own key. Works flawlessly!

http://rapidshare.com/files/105422704/GuidoZ_OEM_-_wmWifiRouter_v1.01.zip.html

P.S. If you want to add your own key, simply open the file "05ea6dd4-5a9a-4995-b70d-5fd2c7c39482.rgu" in any simple text editor and replace the trial key with the one you purchased.

Peace. ~G
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Yes. If you are running a newer version than 0.91 go to Options -> Configuration -> Network Setup.

Unless you have no data plan at all, it should work (but you might get charged!). I've only seen this specific problem myself once, on my wizard, but it gives that error whatever app I use to connect to the internet... Just doesn't go on the internet at all :)

Try going to Options -> Configuration -> Cellular connection and see if changed that makes a difference.
