I sold this one yesterday and ugraded to a newer toshiba running vista. This is what happens...

I start internet sharing, and it connects fine, status goes to "connected". Internet works fine for about a minute. Then, any page I visit wont open and i get the "page cannot be displayed" message, but heres the kicker, INTERNET SHARING STILL SAYS CONNECTED!!!

I have restarted the computer and mogul, tried different USB ports, still the same deal. Browsing in PIE works fine though...

lastly, before I get the "page cannot be displayed" error, a quick screen comes up saying something like DNSerror. But no errors if im browsing from my phone. What gives? i cant figure this out and i HAAAATE when i cant figure stuff out. Please help guys
awww crap!... wait a sec... do you have windows mobile device center?
