    Hey,

    I'm having some issues using the MyWi app on my iPhone 4 running iOS4.0.

    I know the app is running properly because the USB tethering works. However, when I try to connect to the "MyWi" wireless network, it freezes up my laptop and I have to restart.

    I'm running Windows 7 x64.

    I found this link: http://modmyi.com/forums/mywi/72202...top-connect-mywi4-via-wifi-2.html#post5384899

    I went to the Intel website and updated my driver to:
    13.4.0.9

    It still isn't working! Does anyone have any experience with this issue??

    Thanks.

    Yes I have. Didn't do a thing.

    Did you have a similar issue?

    Same issue for months on a Lenovo x201 with Intel 6300 and Win64, except I can't connect at all to the wifi signal (all my other devices can). It is a verified problem with a number of users. I have contacted the developer (Intelliborn) a number of times about this, with zero response.

    ^ That's not encouraging. I guess I'll make do with the USB tether its fixed and/or a new Intel driver is released.

    Thanks wiLx u Up, I had the same problem with an iPhone 4 at 4.2.6 on Verizon and MyWi 4.51.1 , using a Lenovo Thinkpad Win7 x64 with Intel WiFi drivers 13.3 (also tried 13.4). Per your advice, I downgraded to 13.2, and viola - it now connects fine to the WiFi tether (which is in adhoc mode from the iPhone).
