Hello,
i have a question regarding the modem functionality of the StrTrk under WM 6.1 Pro V2.
How can I share the Internet Connection of the phone to a Notebook?
(I already found the "Internet Sharing" shortcut but the question is what to do after...)
In order to find it out, i activated the Sharing through Bluetooth PAN. (On the telephone).
Now ist the the question what I have to do on my Notebook.
My Notebook displays me a Dial Up Connection and a Network Access Point Connection.
What I have to chose and what I have to enter on the Notebook then?
Is there anything to do with the telephone (except the sharing shortcut)?
Many Thanks for helpful answers!
No one for answer?
First off you will need to install active sync onto your laptop, then you will need a sync cable that will attach your phone to the USB port on your laptop. (bluetooth would be very hard to get working for this)
On your phone, start Internet sharing, and then select connect, after it says "Check USB cable connection", plug your phone into the sync cable that is plugged into your laptop.
The active sync will not try to sync but a new internet connection will be found by Windows XP.
Hope this helps
I have the same problem after I upgraded the ROM from HTC website. The upgraded ROM was still wm5. Now I upgrade the ROM from wm5 to wm6. The problem is still there. I checked the modem configuration in XP from control panel, but I can't find the modem device.
I also followed the advice here, but the screen of my phone just indicated "Check USB cable connection". I didn't get the instruction to connect the USB cable.
The upgrading was really nice for my phone except I can't use my phone as a modem. I do want to repair this problem.
Any idea?
Hello,
do you already installed active sync?
Another Problem:
I cant connect the phone through usb cable because the laptop is from the company where I work for. Iam not allowed to install any driver (On my own PC the Generic RNDIS is need to be installed). Is ist possible to have the modem functionality through Bluetooth without using Active Sync?
You don't need ActiveSync / Windows Mobile Device Center to use the Internet Sharing on WM6.
For connecting via USB, make sure you ActiveSync is disconnected and the USB cable is unplugged before you click Connect in Internet Sharing. When you receive the prompt for 'Check USB Cable Connection' plug the USB lead in again. Windows should now detect new hardware in form of a 'Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device' instead of the usual 'Smartphone USB Sync' and a new Local Area Connection should appear in Network Connections.
The Bluetooth PAN option depends on the Bluetooth Stack installed on Windows. If you have the default Microsoft Bluetooth Stack installed (Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista) you can go to Network Connections (on Vista open Network and Sharing Center and click Manage Network Connections below Tasks) and double click on the Bluetooth Network Connection icon. In the dialog that opens the phone's Bluetooth PAN Connection should be listed for you to Connect to.
That's it. You should be browsing the Internet via GPRS / EDGE.
I did install Activesync. Even I can see the remote rndis Internet device after I plug the usb cord to my laptop, the modem doesn't work. I also can't find the modem in the control panel for it.
Thanks, I connected my Cingular 3125 to my computer. The connection is a local connection as a Ethernet card instead of a dial connection. So I don't have to set up a modem driver for it.
Just in case I wasn't clear, you don't need ActiveSync for this to work, the functionality is done entirely separately.
There is no modem device any more, it's all done using a "Virtual" Local Area Network which you'll find listed in Network Connections.
You shouldn't need to configure anything, just plug in the USB cable and wait a few seconds. The phone should initiate a GPRS / EDGE connection automatically and you should then have access to The Internet.
If it doesn't, you may need to temporarily disable any other Local Area Connections (especially any that are used for Internet access) so that your PC is forced to use the one provided by the phone's virtual network connection.
Thanks, your explanation is very clear. The process is exactly like what you said.
StarTrek can be connected with Ubuntu as a Ethernet card now.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get internet from my computer to the vibrant via bluetooth? To be clear, I do NOT want 2G/3G on my computer, I want to share my LAN connection with my phone. I'm deployed to Iraq and I have a wired connection to my computer that I want to share with my phone. I've tried connectify and similar options but they don't seem to work. I've got XP and 7 on the laptop, so if there's an option for either it'll work.
Thanks in advance.
Using bluetooth would be slow. You'll want to create an adhoc wireless network on your computer. Here's how to in XP:

Edit: This is, if you have wireless on your computer.
I have an option in my HTC Mozart to share internet but when enabling it and connect to it with my laptop (ThinkPad with Windows 7) internet doesn't work. Laptop is connecting with success but there is no internet available. I was trying to set DNS manually but it don't work either.
Is there any way to fix this?
ps. I just installed Tango update but it doesn't help me

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just disable the LAN cards/adapters of your PC/Laptop without WiFi adapter...
