Question Hey, does anyone else who tethers have this prob?...

Hey, Everyone,
I've had EVDO USB tethering (via WModem) functioning for some time now, and also use WMWifiRouter to ICS via ad-hoc w/ my 6700. However, what I'd also like to do is USB tether, and then share the dial-up connection via ad-hoc on my XP box, but I can't share it. When in the Advanced properties (where ICS would normally be) there is only (D@MN! I wish I could Copy & Paste this):

"Windows cannot display the properties of this connection. The Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) might be corrupted. To correct this, use System Restore..." (But, I don't subscribe to the whole System Restore, uh..."feature," so I don't have any restore points.)

So, I'd made sure any and every WMI-related service was runnin', del'd the dial-up connection, reboot, set up the connection again, and STILL got the same msg in the Advanced tab. Everyone who tethers, 'you gettin' the same msg I am, or can you ICS (before I waste time tryin' to repair WMI)?
ThankSss
