I'm on vista so its gonna be a little different here I assume your on XP. Some how on XP I can't remember how but you need to get to setup a dial up connection. See link below.. Dial up number is #777 user name and password should be blank. Then you should be able to click connect. It should act like a dial up modem and connect to the internet.

Look here for setting up a dial up connection:

If your using Vista let me know and I can give you more exact directions. Hope this helps..

I start it up on active sync then i went to internet sharing..and it stops active sync.. so i tried phone as modem (hayes compatible on com 1) and the phone says the remote host has ended the connection.
im completely stumped..
im starting to think its because im running a sprint based custom rom on my touch pro..
Is there any roms that are not conected to sprint , verizon and such? and does any body else have any ideas?
