Help Captivate can't find iPhone 4 MyWi

I have the captivate and the iPhone 4. Since I can't find a way that works correctly to tether my 3G from captivate as a hot stop, I'm using my iPhone with mywi which makes my iPhone a wifi hot spot. I'm able to connect iPods computers and other devices to the iPhone 4 hotspot. But the captivate cannot find the wifi network I create :(
It's WEP with a 10 digit password. Does anyone know why it cannot find the network or how I can get it to work?

Thanks!
 
MyWi creates Ad-Hoc wireless connections which some devices such as the PS3 cannot read. Is it possible the Captivate doesn't support Ad-Hoc connections?
 
I have an iPhone 3G with mywi and my captivate can see the iPhone but it does not connect.
 
Android phones do NOT currently support Ad-Hoc wireless networks. It's a bit ironic because the wifi tether app for Android also creates an Ad-Hoc network.
 
Any updates or workarounds on this? So, apparently Android phones still do NOT currently support Ad-Hoc wireless networks? I want to use my Windows Mobile 6.1 Samsung Omnia as a wifi hotspot using Wmwifirouter for a friend’s Samsung Android 2.1 Galaxy S Captivate. However, the Captivate’s wifi is not able to find the Omnia as a hotspot. I’m able to have other devices- laptops, iTouch, find and use the Omnia as a hotspot
