OK, I have a jasjam with all the factory provider settings for internet. All works well. But how do I connect to a laptop and use the jasjam's internet on the laptop?

My moto has phone tools that does this. But I wanna do it with my jasjam... Help anyone?

Yeah it's fairly simple. Make sure Activesync 4.5 is installed on your laptop (don't know if you need it if you use Vista)
Connect your laptop to the device with USB cable.
On your device start Internet Sharing (if it doesn't have it then you will need to install a ROM that does... pretty much all cooked ROMS do)
Then click connect... give it a few seconds and you should be able to connect to internet via your phone's internet connection

You can also do this via bluetooth. First go to Internet Sharing and instead of USB select 'Bluetooth PAN' in the drop down box
Click connect...
Then only your Laptop in Control Panel> Networks tell it to connect to Bluetooth Pan and you should be done.

You can even do this via Wifi but you need to get commerical software called WMWifiRouter

Cheers. I found that the bluetooth I was using was a little complicated. Ended up using an older stick and it works great. Thanks.
