Internet Sharing on Windows Phone
It looks like there is a setting hidden deep within Mango that shows ICS ( Internet Connection Sharing ) could be enabled on Windows Phone which will allow users to use Mango as a Hot Spot ( read it as : You are with your friends and every one needs an internet connection , assuming your carrier is one of the good ones that will enable this, you can set up your Windows Phone as a WiFi Hotspot and other devices – laptops, mobile phone etc could use the internet by connecting through your phone ). But the catch here is that it might not be enabled by default and will have to be done through the carrier. One other cause for concern is that it will drain you battery life quite quickly ( while using this feature ). This was seen on a 7.10.7720.68 RTM build on a Samsung Focus. via wpcentral
It looks like the device can support up to a maximum of 5 devices and if no one is using the connection it will auto terminate to save you some battery life. Do you think your carrier will enables this feature for you ? Optus ( my carrier ) does this for Android so I am assuming windows Phone will get the same treatment

SciLorsWifiPenetrate
SciLor’s Wifi Penetrate is a simple database that has predefined passwords for the common WiFi modems. This will be a great tool for network admins and the geeks ( you know who you are , you are the one your friends call when they have an issue with the computer ).
Some routers come with a predefined WEP/WPA password. Many people do not change them. ( Its a BAD idea to leave the default password ). To make it more “safe”, passphrase is different on every router BUT it is based on its SSID, so it can be calculated. you can use this tool to calculate that password. Following router-prefixes are supported: “Discus–”, “DLink-”, “Thomson”, “SpeedTouch”, “INFINITUM”, “Bbox”, “DMAX”, “Orange-”, “BTHomeHub-”
Before you think of using it for evil purposes think of the Bad Karma that you will get. Oh yeah before I forget neither 1800PocketPC.com nor the developer are responsible for your actions.
