kolos,

I tried what you said about removing the WEP and still no go. The HTC HD2 still can't find my N900. I tried it with another HD2 and it's the same results.

One thing I do want to mention is that because I think it's a problem. When I pick the connection which is the first option in Mobilehotspot. I have duplicates. Mind you I only have 2 connections to choose from which is my regular T-Mobile Internet and the MMS connection I setup for FMMS.

Screen shot attached to show what I mean.

It switches up to either show duplicates of T-Mobile Internet or T-Mobile MMS.

Anyone have this issue?

HeavyComponent,

This issue with multiple MMS access points could be resolved if you delete them, because you actually don't need them anymore after fMMS v1.x.x has settings for MMS access point included in its interface.

Removed the settings that I created and left it as default. Clicked on start and my iPod finds it, connects but still can't connect to the internet. Used 2 HD2's to find the N900 and they can't find it.

Might have to give the other application a try.

Next step is to install iptables and wireless-tools with mobilehotspot.

The easiest way to do is:

1. connect the phone with internet (wi-fi or 2G/3G);
2. enable repository extras-devel in Application manager and then close Application manager;
3. open X Terminal;
4. type sudo gainroot and confirm it with enter key;
5. this step is not necessary, type apt-get update and confirm it with enter;
6. type apt-get install iptables wireless-tools mobilehotspot and confirm it with enter;
7. after installation is done, type reboot to restart the phone;
8. open mobilehotspot, set WEP Encryption password (5 or 13 characters), Network name and Connection, but do not be connected with internet;
9. then press on button Start to start with wi-fi tethering.

Great article!
followed the instruction and it just works!
the new kernel is a must! after that all just work.

thank you! you've been more than helpful

I have varying levels of success with this, problems arise for me when two or more computers try to share the connection. If i set a netork with say the name 'n900' I find after a while something goes wrong, and I lose internet connection even though it says I am still connected to 'n900', and even after shutting down mobile hotspot, and even the n900 istelf 'n900' still shows up in the list of available networks, or sometimes it will show that I am connected to it in the taskbar even though it does not show up in the list.. Is this because it is seen as a peer to peer network?

The only way I can fix it is to start a new network with a different name, and the old networks are still showing up, even when I chose a network to connect to from the n900 itself..

Another thing, did you try to connect with N900 other device (laptop...) and try to browse with it?

Also, when the iPod is connected, did you try to browse with N900 to check internet connecton directly from N900?
