How to make and/or recieve calls whilst using internet sharing

[The Rhino]

I am having problems using the internet whilst making or recieving calls, does anyone know how to rectify this or could this be a pc fault as i am running vista? Or could it possibly the rom (2.03.l3v5y WWE)

Mine does this aswell mate. Always has, regardless of what ROM im using or what pc im on.

Dont know how to do both but i really would like to know.

Also, to prove its not the pc, whilst i was on the phone (loudspeaker) i tried to use google maps to find a shop, and it reported that there was no data connection - so it seems the phone cuts the data off whilst on a voice call.

I hope someone knows/can find a solution to this....

Try This......
On the handset, tap Start and select Settings.
Tap the Connections tab.
Tap the Connections icon.
Tap the Advanced tab.
Tap Select Networks.
Under the first drop down box, tap New…
In the Enter a name for these settings: field, enter Orange WAP
Tap the Modem tab.
Tap New…
In the Enter a name for the connection: field, enter Orange WAP
Tap the Select a modem drop-down list and select Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G).
Tap Next.
In the Access point name: field, enter orangewap
Tap Next.
If required, in the User name: field enter Orange
If required, in the Password: field enter Multimedia
Tap Finish.
Tap the Proxy Settings tab.
Select the This network connects to the Internet option.
Select the This network uses a proxy sever to connect to the Internet option.
Tap Advanced… Tap on HTTP.
In the Proxy server field, enter 192.168.71.35
In the Port field, enter 8080
Tap ok five times

This changes your setting from GPRS to WAP.
It mite work cause i think its got sumthing to do with how your actually connecting to recieve data & voice calls & if your in the right area where you can actually recieve what you need to do what you want.

I use the internet on my HD and make n recieve calls all the time area dependent....

The settings above are for Orange users only....

thedaddyy, I tried your suggestion and it appears to work :D

The speed is massivly reduced whilst on the phone but it remains connected and able to browse.

I used speedtest.net to check the speeds of the connections and the results are below. I had HSDPA connection with only 1 bar.
