I tried shutting both devices down for 20 minutes and powering back up. I found on another thread that someone created two Wi-Fi networks on the eDGe, one with a password and one open. I tried his method and that didn't work, either. I tried Wi-Fi with Bluetooth on and Wi-Fi with Bluetooth off. Nothing works. I still get the same result "Not in Range."
I did go to McDonald's this morning to see if the Wi-Fi feature of the eDGe actually worked, and it did. I had no problem surfing the net or setting up my e-mail account.
I am very disappointed and unless I can get this thing to recognize my iPhone's Hotspot, the eDGe is worthless to me. I purchased it so that I wouldn't have to lug out my laptop whenever I wanted to look up something quickly. The iPhone is great, but the small screen is killing my eyes.

I'm not sure if the tether program discussed in this thread has an iPhone version but its worth looking to. It shouldn't matter if the tether is Apple or Android. As ar as the Edge is concerned Wi-Fi is Wi-Fi so there probably is a solution.
