I have a mogul running the stock 6.1 firmware. I did the registry edit to enable the "Sprint PCS" connection. My question is do i still need a program like PDAnet? Or will sprint be unable to detect the usage?

umm why did you reg edit anything to begin with,, sprint pcs connection is just #777, it does that on its own.. did you mean phone as modem??? does this on tis own as well...

use wmwifirouter hands down the best program for this

He did the regedit to allow undetected WinMo ICS tethering by changing the PAM reg entry to Sprint PCS. This method requires NO additional software to tether.

So this is the correct way to hopefully use it to tether and not be detected?

You won't be detected unless you burn up 5 gig of traffic over the Mogul.

And I was inaccurate about no additional software required.. on XP machines, you need activesync 4.5 installed. Vista: you need mobile device manager. This ensures the PCs have the usb modem drivers.

For Linux.. honestly haven't found anything that works, so I just use WMWifiRouter. Ditto for Mac.
