Hi all mobile users.
I was wondering if it would be possible to use my iPAQ 4155 as an
802.11b access point. My iPAQ has ppc 2003 on it. I would like to
connect my iPAQ to my windows XP computer via USB, then use my XP
system to surf the net through my iPAQ. Thanks for your knowledge.

wouldn't go on activesync.

Yes

* Windows Mobile 5 AKU 3.3 or newer or Windows Mobile 6
* Both a wifi and a cellular data connection
* An installed and working version of Internet Sharing**
* 15 MB of free device memory
* Additional requirements may apply.
** Some providers remove Internet Sharing from their branded devices.
The OP has an WM2003-device which is too old for WMWifiRouter.
Additional this device doesn't have the Internet Sharing installed. So
WMWifiRouter will never work on it.
Kind regards, Helge

Sorry, you can't - as has also been explained in my related roundup & bible
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407563 ), it's only
starting with WM5 that AP's are supported.

Make sure you check out my article - for example, if you have a Symbian S60
phone, you can use it as an AP.
