How To Install WiFi Router into your Palm Pre VIDEO!
Well, we have been getting a lot of questions on how to install the My Tether wifi router software onto your Palm Pre, so I figured I could make a short video on how to do that step-by-step in YouTube video fashion. This should answer a lot of questions for people who are having trouble so…
My friend actually just got a new Palm Pre and we taped the whole process on my digital camera.

Hey, Max, I love what you're doing with the hacks & site. I'm new to Linux — I know I should have learned it years ago but I was distracted. I think the pre and your hacks will finally get me over the hump.
Meanwhile, I wanted to email you an idea I have for a hack project for your feedback and/or guidance. But I didn't see an email contact handy on the site. Can you please pass along a way to contact you on-site (sorry if I missed it and it's around somewhere), or privately to me at anonym0use at aoldotcom (with a zero in “m0use” not an “o”). Thanks -'mouse

If you have updated to the latest WebOS, then yes, it will say @palm. one thing i have found to do is to copy and paste what you are suppose to type, instead of actually typing it. it then worked perfect for me and i was able to install it and it works great. in fact i had to use it last night, since my internet went out. was very fast. was able to play videos off of youtube, a little choppy, but it worked. try to copy and paste it, if still doesnt work. let me know, you can email me directly to spyder3232@gmail.com.

Hi, I finally got the WiFi to work on Vista64 – took a while, but got it going. Only thing is, I never see anything anywhere about the My Tether “patching” to be able to use WiFi. Is there a work around so that I don’t have to to this each time I want to use it? Re-booting the pre is a real pain – takes even longer than my PC!

I know several people who would also be interested but like myself lack the techsavylity to do it, jaja, but anyway If you know some one that will be willing to do it for me and other people let me know, and how much would he charge. Thank you.

first error I get is at the novacom command line. I checked and everything is in that dir. I get this:
?? getopt returned charcter code 0×3f ??
version: 16
usage: novacom [-a address] [-p port
this goes on and on but is different I think from the video you show.. And then also I am on my pre typing..so…
I proceed to next step since novacom is already included in my pal bin and I cdont know how to enter that vertical straight line?
I’m guessing that since I’m on a dell laptop and can’t find that symbol after the install.php (straight vertical line)
how can I add that?

attempted install of my tether from command prompr on new palm pixi w/ webOs 1.4.1.1 . Says it was installed but doesnot show in app list. Can someone help me with command to uninstall my tether and how to make the vertical line at command prompt? I think that may be the problem, vert line didnot appear as it should look. Thanks

Max,
Great video, very easy to follow. I followed all the instructions step by step and I do have the My Tether installed on my Palm Pre. I enable DHCP and it resets the device. However i am not able to see the wireless (ad hoc) device on my wireless networks list. Can you please direct me to how i get the AoNet to show up on my wireless networks list. I have the 1.5.1 version. Thanks
