1. ActiveSync often reports that it's processing files/bookmarks/etc. even if there are no changes. Generally it's not actually making changes, it's just a scan to check for changes.
2. The advanced networking functionality is more or less to be used for Internet Sharing, such as if you want to use your phone as a Sprint broadband card. I reason it breaks, from my own forum searching, is usually because of firewall issues since, in advanced network mode, the phone acts as a network adapter instead of a USB device. If you wanted to configure your firewall to allow all the ActiveSync ports/programs, it would probably work fine too.
