ill start...
i connect to vision on phone no problem...
i then tried activesync (thats what i would do if i wanted internet on the phone via the laptop (if i was out of sprint range... and wanted to check for updates for programs etc..) i thougth the other way would work, connect phone to internet, connect computer to phone via bluetooth, active sync and would be good to go.. but that didnt work..
then i tried the internet sharing... set to SPRINT PCS, i connected ok (said CONNECTED on phone, and on PAN on computer side as well)
but when i tried to accesses anything on my PC, nothing...

am i missing something...
or do i have to us USB and bluetooth isnt an option (wouldnt see why that is the case)

thanks

When you want to use your phone as your laptop internet connection, you DO NOT use activesync. You have to set it up as internet sharing. Your computer will install seperate drviers and list the touch as a network device. Connecting through activesync will not work.
