Using My Phone as a Wireless Router
I thought that it was pretty cool that I could used my Sprint Mogul superphone as a router by installing PDANet. It brought one-click simplicity to computing whilst traveling while also allowing my to circumvrent Sprint’s silly data charges.
But WMWifiRouter makes my Mogul even cooler! It quite literally makes my Mogul into a wireless router, so any computer close enough to my phone can connect to it just as they would any other wireless network.
Netstumbler indicates I’ve got a range of about 30 feet before the signals pretty much degrades exponentially. However, that’s a heck of a lot better than having use a wire to connect the thing to my laptop, plus now multiple computers can connect.
It’s powerful applications like this that make it easy for me to overlook the shortcomings of Windows Mobile.
