Published by MartinVarsavsky.net in Fon with No Comments
In this video John Crispin from Fon shows how a Fonera can obtain WiFi from a 3G modem. If you are a developer and would like to write apps for the new Fonera 2.0 pls write to iurgi@fon.com.

I mean, when will the fonera 2.0 launch? I’m not a developer 🙁

Be careful with the 3G network! Listening to Internet radio, my wife ran up a bill of 600 euro in ONE NIGHT while on vacation in Denmark. She was trying to use a WiFi connection … but at some point the nokia must have switched to 3G.

@ David:
Yes, this is a real worry with this type of fonera. It should only be used within your country, if you travel with it the 3G operators kill you. What they do with roaming in a borderless Europe is highly unethical.

I have one of those 3G devices in Sweden and I also would like to be able to get Wifi. When is that app going to be released Martin? I assume we will need Fonera 2.0 to be able to run that, right?
BTW, I have unlimited 3G bandwith so I’m okay with that, I won’t pay 600 € bill or something.

Yes Martin, off course I would like to write apps to the Fonera and test it. I’m in fon beta testers group and I’ve got question. When we can except Fonera 2.0 for free to testers??
