internet connection sharing

[jagr]

has anyone tried internet connection sharing via HSPDA to a PC using activesync or bluetooth yet? any issues?

I use USB/ActiveSync and it works fine.

Just follow the manual. I followed it and got no problem.

One thing though, in the manual, it said "execute 3gnetopt.exe in the PC to optimize it for 3G connection".

It seems, after that it changed the routing automatically and can slow down your internet connection when not using the ICC via PDA.

Well, that's easy, just disable the "additional" network interface in the PC.

i could get the usb internet sharing to work but bluetooth internet sharing doesnt work. my pc is able to detect a local bluetooth pan network without internet access. anyone got their bluetooth/internet to work?

I have internet sharing working via bluetooth on a tablet and laptop (both running XP). First I tried DUN and it worked which suprised me. Then I set up a PAN connection and got Internet sharing running. After that DUN will no longer work, it looks like it trys but then fails. But Internet Sharing is faster and works fine over bluetooth.

It can be tedious at first, you need to create a BT PAN Connection on the PC, you need to create a BT partnership with the Kaiser in your Bluetooth manager on the PC. You need to set the Kaiser's Internet sharing to "Bluetooth PAN" and have the Network connection set to go to your ISP's GPRS internet AP.

Once I have PAN setup on the PC, it's showing "Network Cable Unplugged"
I then Start the Kaiser's Internet Sharing and press connect, it starts a GPRS connection.
I then open the Bluetooth Manager on the PC, select the Kaiser's Connection Icon, right click and select connect.
Then the two devices connect and I'm off and running.

With 3G I have been able to answer calls and talk on my Jawbone BT headset while still connected to the PC via BT as well, pretty much MAGIC ;)

bluetooth still cant work with those instructions, i'll just stick to USB for now.

how do I ensure that HSPDA is working and its not just 3G?

My 3G icon changes to H when it connects hi-Speed. I'm wondering what Bluetooth Stack your PC has, I had issues with my tablet and Hermes until I got new BT Drivers from Fujitsu support. Your PC may need updated BT profiles? My laptop is Dell (uses a Toshiba BT Stack), the tablet is Fujitsu (also Toshiba BT Stack). Just a thought.

On the Plus side, using a USB cable will keep the phone charged, which is good because HSPDA is a power hog anyway.

Both USB and BT ICS work great for me. I've used it on Edge, 3G, and HSDPA.

I am connected right now via internet sharing using my USB cable. However, this is working only if I have a 2G signal showing on my tytnII. When I am in a 3G location, the internet sharing program sits with the message "waiting for network"....this is just after the message "checking USB cable".

I have tried many things including a hard-reset, not having a full sync relationship between the PC, just connected etc. All to no avail.

I am using a new Dell laptop running Vista Ultimate.

Unlike previous PDAs I've had, I don't know a way to force the tytn II to stay on 2G, so when I am at work in a 3G environment, I cannot get internet sharing to work.

Help!
