So I have MyWi working really well using a USB cable. I wish I could tether using Bluetooth but that is another discussion. My problem is that I cant seem to get my laptop to tether to the iphone via wifi. The connection process stops at "waiting to get IP address". Any ideas?

EDIT: I am sure what I did but I got it to work. I read somewhere else that I had to first visit a website via safari with MyWi turned before I could tether via WiFi. As crazy as this sounds, it worked! I am now able to tether via USB and Wifi on my laptop. The speeds (at least according to the MyWi app) is pretty respectable.
