activesync stops after internet sharing

[easyride]

I updated to the lovely windows 6. I could sync to my XP computer no problem until I've used the internet sharing utility. Then everytime I connect the phone to the computer, the computer networks with the internet sharing utility and activesync doesn't get a look in.

If I delete my vodafone 1240 from the activesync devices I can start again until I use internet sharing again.

I need both. How can I stop internet sharing so that activesync will again recognise the computer? I connect via the usb port.

Try to accept wireless connection in ActiveSync.

not sure if it will work for you, but what worked for me (HTC touch pro, custom ROM PROven):

1. go to Settings on your HTC, Connections, USB-to-PC, select ActiveSync radiobutton, uncheck the "Ask me first about...." checkbox.
2. connect your phone using active sync.
3. disconnect (unplug)
4. go to that same settings again. Now select the other radiobutton (DiskDrive), AND check the "Ask me first..." checkbox.

When you now again connect your phone, it will (hopefully) ask what connection you want to make.
Otherwise, try changing the order of the above actions.
hope that helps.

In case if the above post doesn't help

Activesync on PC uses LAN interface for data transfer between PC and WMPhone.
When you enable internet connection sharing it changes some connections' settings to manual - i.e. 192.168.0.1. So make sure that your LAN interface that is used by activesync, is set to get IP address automatically.
