Usage

For most users, using WMWifiRouter is a matter of installing it, running it, and clicking "Connect". After the status icon has gone full green, connect your other wifi-enabled devices to it and you're up and running. At this stage, on most devices you are able to press the power button to turn off the screen and other powerhungry components to save power, while preserving the ability to use your mobile device as a wifi router.

Users with devices that have a hardware wifi switch (like the Titan / Mogul) should turn wifi on before starting WMWifiRouter and not turn it off again until the WMWifiRouter has fully exited and the loading icon has disappeared.

Because WMWifiRouter changes a lot of settings on your device, it would be wise to make a full device backup before using the software. WMWifiRouter also makes a backup of what it changes in case anything goes wrong (device crashing, running out of battery, etc). When this happens, you should soft-reset your device and WMWifiRouter, use the "Crash Cleanup" option, and soft-reset again.
