Using the Phone As Modem with the USB cable

[WanderingMinstrel]

Discipler,
You said "I'm on the Sprint TP. I also have the PdaNet program, which I purchased, which also pops up when the phone is connected. My Laptop sees it as one of the ISP options."
Is there any advantage to using PdaNet over Internet Sharing? I have a license I could upgrade from my apache if it is a better option to Internet Sharing with the registry tweak.

Maybe I am old fashioned, or maybe just not adventurous enough (heck, I haven't changed the registry at all, and I pay the regular/full fee to Sprint to use the phone as a modem), but I tether with a usb cable, go to internet sharing, click on connect, and usually find that within 20 or 30 seconds I am online.

However, my connection is often hinky, and the service is painfully slow.

I mean painfully, as in Mr. T. in 1983 on the A-Team saying "PAINFULLY!" slow.

Is there anyone out here who uses the standard phone as modem service, with a usb cable, who has any ideas of tweaks to make, either on the TP, or on the computer itself, to speed things up?

Many thanks for your kind assistance.

Best,
Ito

i accidently deleted the internet shareing app from my htc touch pro, does any one have it or can give it to me so i can put it back on. im very sorry it was a stupid mistake of mine, i wasnt paying attention to what it was at the time.

I still get the same 67 password error. Used the ICS WModem fix, tethering fix and edited the registry as stated above to no avail. This isn't huge for me as I have WMWiFiRouter and use it wirelessly, just wanted to get it to work. Pain in the ass. Oh, this is form my TP2

use the cab below, it will show in programs as internet sharing. click it and select usb, then hit connect, then plug device into pc. you get a connection in 15 seconds or less. it says diamond fix, but works on tp, don't have tp2, but have many tp2 cabs that work on tp and diamond cabs that work on tp. they ar all same device as far as programs go for most part.

i was using internet sharing with Schwartz Tethering Fix and it worked great. then i applied the WMWiFi Router and that worked good for a 21 day trial. When the trial ended was no longer able to use ISC. I can not reload the Schwartz fix because i cannot remove the old version. I have the cab loaded on the phone but the first install is overriding and new install. Is there any way i can remove the internet sharing cab installed by the Tethering Fix?

Press start, settings, system, scroll down to remove programs and remove wmwifi.

Not quite. I have an Acer w/XP pro. No Comm section in the reg under Local_Machine.
