WMWifi is a cunning little app for Windows Mobile 6 that turns your handset into a portable wifi router.
Why would you want to do this? Well, apart from gaining the respect and envy of passing geeks (which should just about make up for the geekcrime of running WinMo in the first place) WMWifi will let you share your phone’s internet connection with any other wifi-capable devices within range.
At it’s simplest this will let you use your phone’s data connection with your laptop or iPod Touch. At the other extreme, you could run a whole office network through it – just be prepared for a shock when you get your phone bill.
The app is under development and there is no official documentation, although this forum at XDA Developers board has some fairly comprehensive notes with lots of tips provided by users.
WMWifi is available from here and is free for non-commercial use.
