Thanks a ton. I should mention that I am saying thanks using PAM since I just went though the above instructions

Mad respek and thanks to the PPC peeps.
I don't post much (as I dont know **** about most of this) but anytime I have a problem, I can get the answers here.

Also, found a free easy reg editor.

Select "Pocket PC 2002,2003 (ARM/PXA)" as it's a cab file that you can install on your devices versus an active sync install.
Figured I'd post this - had some difficulty finding a reg editor in the forums (prolly their, but google worked just as easy.)

Thanks again!

This was a LOT easier than having to go through all the steps on the Mogul to use the Wireless Modem utility. Awesome program, but tedious as hell!

I'll have to try this when I get home, thank you.

So what's this do? You just plug it into the usb port on your laptop and suddenly you can connect to the internet? What sort of transfer rates does the edvo network give with full bars?

Any side-effects of doing this? I use WiFi Router but this is so simply I might just set it up as an alternate method.

@ Chronster: It depends on your location, cell tower and all of the other normal internet variables. With WiFi Router in Vegas, using http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ to the LA server, I get 1112 kb DL and 308 kb UL.

When I plug mine in it ask what I want to do connect to internet, activesync or disk drive. When i hit internet it automatically starts my internet connection on my laptop.

If you enter "wifi" instead of sprint, will it use the wifi connection?

Just a question, why would you want to do that? Does your laptop not have a wifi card?

As to the original question, I have not seen anything before on how to share your wifi connection via Bluetooth or USB. So unless there is a regedit that I'm not aware of I believe your answer is no.
