I have tried activating internet sharing via bluetooth before pairing and this made no difference.
Please help someone - I really like wm6 but I need to use my phone as a modem when I'm out and about. I had no problems with wm5.
My OS is XP Pro SP2 and the current ROM on my device is 3DES.1.
I've checked these forums for help with no luck, so any advice would be greatly appreciated
In short, ms decided to remove bluetooth dun support. So internet sharing is the way to go.
First you should be able to connect to the internet using your hermes.
Second, you should be able to connect to the internet using USB. Set the internet sharing application to usb, push connect and then connect the usb cable.
Third you need a bluetooth stack that supports PAN. My asus notebook with integrated bluetooth came with a toshiba stack. It didn't support PAN. Changed to microsoft stack wich didnt seem to support my mouse (couldnt figure that one out, it just wouldnt work) to back to toshiba stack.
download recent stack. I used:

downloaded and installed it, now i can use pan:
Start internet sharing application on hermes, set for bluetooth and connect
then connect computer using pan.
