I did both softset (turning phone off and on) and hardset (taking battery off and putting it back in). However, both times, and then pre-conneced with internet explorer, I saw "Power Vision" back in the "ForceCellConnection" setting registry.

I changed "ForceCellConnection" setting a few times, and now I have three lines of "ForceCellConnection" setting with two renamed to old etc, and the new line re-edited to be "Sprint PCS" (in lieu of the "Power Vision")

Is there something else that needs to be done to make the change to "Spring PCS" stick?

I could not install the Internet Sharing FIX.cab file - it seems to be garbled.

Thanks in advance for some advice.
