Will this ever make it to extras or is there another app I could use to share my 3g connection over wireless? Joikuspot does not provide a "lite" version for the n900
im running titans kernal
i open mobile hotspot but have problems getting it 2 start and then if i can get it 2 start nothing can see my hotspot yet i can see it on the fone??
I have some problems with my ipod and iphone.
Iphone can see the wifi signal from n900 and catch it, but when I choose the DHCP option in iphone, iphone gets the IP starting with 169.XXX.XXX.XXX and iphone cannot access to the internet.
But I realized that if I manually assigned the ip starting with 10.XXX.XXX.XXX, it works.
I'm just wondering the IP starting with 169.XXX, is from n900 or iphone automatically put the ip in dhcp. Because other laptops can get the ip starting with 10.XXX.XXX with no problems in dhcp and I don't need to put the fixed ip (10.XXX).
Also one more question although it is related to the iphone.
In all other wifi networks in iphone, the wep passwords are automatically saved and I don't need to put the password again for later connections. But the mobilehotspot wep password is not saved. I have to put the password everytime when iphone is trying to connect the hotspot. Is it natural in ad-hoc network wep process or do I miss something?

This is the "standard" range (on apples at least) for "random" IP address when DHCP fails for whatever reason.

Maybe the iphone does not like DHCP server hotspot uses (dnsmasq is not really a full-featured DHCP server but works for most cases and having full dhcpd would be wasteful)
