Now thats what Im talking about. Yeah, it asks for both drivers - 1- HTC USB Modem 2- Diag driver. Not mentioned in the instructions. If you get this to work at your job, then change the settings within Internet Explorer and set the dialup as default. Then go to whatismyip.com to see which IP your using first at work, then after the change is done.

I think I'll just use Firefox for the modem browsing and IE for work stuff. That should work slick. I'll probably post back tomorrow if I'm successful.

This will work...only if they don't have a group policy in place putting a proxy into IE, and disabling the change of it.
At that point nothing will get around it in IE.

Im hoping it all works for you. IF you followed the instructions exactly, and Windows XP detected the HTC Modem Driver, and you setup a a new dialup connection with #777, you should be good.
