Turn your WiFi-enabled Windows Mobile smartphone into a GPRS/UMTS/HSPA wireless router
Posted by Will on Thursday, January 10th, 2008 at 6:01 pm under Windows Mobile, Services, Applications, Announcements
If you’re paying for unlimited data through your carrier’s data network, shouldn’t you be able to use that data package on more than one phone? Why get an unlimited data package for each and every Windows Mobile smartphone in your collection?
WMWifiRouter is a new application for Windows Mobile 6 (possibly 5) that lets you share your WiFi-enabled smartphone’s data GPRS/UMTS/HSPA data connection over that delicious WiFi connection. As long as your other smartphones have WiFi connectivity, you can essentially use WMWifiRouter to turn one handset into a wireless router, and then log into that handset via WiFi to surf the unlimited data network to your heart’s content.

Wow, it’s a great idea. Some carrier is going to be very angry about their idea to give unlimited data plans.

Will this work on a HTC Touch on a CDMA network??

hmm, the few “unlimited” contracts I’ve looked at specifically disallow this. In fact, they disallow most anything but “normal internet usage” … which for me would include quite a bit, but to them means just simple web surfing.

Would this mean that if you have a Cdma evdo phone and an iPod Touch you could surf the web with the Touch using the signal from a Verizon phone?
