Hi,

The way I do it uses ActiveSync 4.5.

On AS 4.5 on the PC go into connection settings and uncheck/turn off "allow USB connections". That way AS won't try to start syncing.

Connect the Kaiser.

Launch 'Internet Sharing" on the Kaiser.

PC Connection should read USB.

Network Connection should read your choice of internet/network connection.

Click connect down the bottom left and you should get a connection...

This forum (and other Forums) are littered with instructions. Just takes a little diligence and reading to piece it all together. Previous poster is right, if you have WiFi on your laptop then you should try WMWifiRouter.

If you prefer ICS then here's the little that I know - might help you get started. So I'm assuming here that when you say "tethering" you're talking about ICS and not using your phone as a USB modem. Are you on a stock T-Mobile WM6 ROM or a cooked ROM? If you're on a cooked ROM you probably already have ICS available. Do you have any shortcuts in your programs for Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)? How about in your Comm Manager - anything to turn it on / off? If no, then you'll need to browse your file system on the device and find the file \Windows\IntShrUI.exe. That's the one you need to start ICS.

If you don't have it you can try installing from the attached files. No guarantees, but it might do the job for you.

Shouldn't need to do any other configuring on your phone, like disabling advanced USB options from connection settings. Also you shouldn't need to disable or change anything in Activesync on the PC, like disabling your USB connection. Once you start ICS select your connection (go with USB, it's easier and requires no setup). Choose your network connection. Click connect. Plug in your USB cable.

You're PC should add a new network connection, you'll get a new IP address for that connection (I think something like 192.168.x.x). Then you should be able to browse the internet.

I was trying to get this work on a Verizon Ozone, which definitely did not have the ICS component. In addition to the three files mentioned in the post above (installed first in the order listed) I needed to also get the IPDrivers CAB file from the author of WMWiFiRouter. I simply used the contact form on that website and mentioned trouble with Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). It sent an automated reply (about 12 hours later) that contained the file. So then I installed it, and then finally installed WMWiFiRouter. I found that the install order was important! I found that inspecting the WMWiFiRouter log file (under TOOLs in the menu) was helpful in figuring things out. I knew i had it right went there were no more FAILures in the log. Even then it did not work and I discovered that my WEP encryption key was not the recommended 5 or 13 characters and it had made its own longer key, which of course did not match what I used the system that was trying to use the WiFi. Once I put in a 13 character key, everything works just fine! I also found that I did NOT need to run the ICS manually, so don't bother messing around with it. WMWiFiRouter knows that it is there and uses it transparently.
