Verizon and XV6800 Internet Tethering

[nuguy]

For dun to not bring up that vzw screen, there are 2 or 3 settings in pst that need to have the first part of the entry that adds 'dun' to your number removed...

I know that sounds hard, but it's not.

I have an old 6700 that I bluetooth teather to my 6800 now and then, and this method has worked.

I don't use a lot of data this way, so I am not endorsing using this as a more permanent method, but for casual limited use I don't see a problem.

I know that there were settings in the registry that may or may not have had to have been changed to disable MultiNAI. Whether those actually do anything has been hotly debated in many threads. I always just made the reg edits as suggested, and never tried tethering without them. But up until either 19588 or 20226 (I can't remember which) tethering using DUN through bluetooth always just worked. I don't know if it was a change in the ROMs or something Verizon did, but I haven't been able to get it to work since. I just need to somehow get tethering working again. So if you can tell me where to find out how to make the changes that you mentioned that would be much appreciated.

Also, is there a better way? It seems like most of the people that have said that they have it working in this thread use WMWiFiRouter. If thats a better way then I can use that too, since I have a wifi card in my laptop. I've tried ICS Control, and never gotten it to work either. I've been flashing and modding phones since my old Samsung SPH-i700 and Motorola V710 so this shouldn't be that damn hard

Tethering was working on my XV6800 using the Internet Sharing in the PPC Kitchen... but now it doesn't work. Ideas?
