Most Windows Mobile devices have a g-capable WiFi transmitter inside, which theoretically allows for data rates of up to 54Mbps. Unfortunately, some manufacturers disable it via software (e.g. HTC Touch HD). Fortunately, reenabling it is easy:

change the value of dot11SupportedRateMaskG from the default 4 (1 in some cases) to 8 inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS.
Note: Some devices don’t have that structure in the registry. If it’s your case, our cab will create it automatically.

The folks at PocketNow.com have created a cab file which does this automatically – if you feel like giving it a pop, hit the link below:
