Re: Tethering A Touch

Okay, so I've installed WM6.1 on my Touch, and it seems to have changed all of this. Basically, it doesn't work anymore--the registry key that we're supposed to delete is not there in this version, it doesn't give you the option of chosing the Network Connection Type as Sprint PCS, and I get the Error 67 every time I try to connect.

The registry no longer has this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing
"Extension"="rilphone.dll"

Instead it is now:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing
"Extension"="isext.dll"

I also noticed this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\Settings
"ForceCellConnection"="Phone as Modem"

So, do we just delete the isext.dll extension, or is this other key perhaps forcing the connection through as PAM when we were able to avoid that type of connection before? Maybe this key is why I am not given a choice as to Network Connection Type?

Any ideas anybody out there? I'm not comfortable enough with registry edits to go hacking around blind. Thanks.
