I have been having this same problem for weeks. When I first startted using the Internet Sharing App on my kaiser, it worked great. But one day it just stopped. The status just always saud "Check Usb Cable Connection" even though it synced up fine with active sync. Well after weeks of lookinf for a solution, I found it!!!!!!

I am running windows XP pro SP2 and WM 6.1 HTC official. After you have active sync turned off and you connect the cable, make sure you are using USB and Media Net and hit connect and it still keeps saying "Check USB....".

With it still plugged in, on your PC RIGHT CLICK on my computer >> properties >> Hardware Tab >> Device Manager. Expand Network Adapters. You should see Windows Mobile-based Device with a red X on it. Double click it. The device usage box at the bottom was set to "Do not use this device (disable)". Change it to "Use this device (enable) and click ok.

And your status on your phone should change from "Check usb cable connection" to "Connected" and ALL SYSTEMS ARE GO!!!

I did not disable this option I do not know how it got disabled since this is on my pc at work, but it work as it did before.

I have the same problem, but the only thing I can think of is that it's because I am on a mac?? DO you think that could be the problem?

I have been plagued by this problem for weeks. I just moved, have no internet set up yet, and needed to get online tonight to look some things up. I thought I was doomed... until I found your solution.

Thank you and good job!
