I read the entire thread and didn't seen any mention of this, so perhaps it is a problem isolated to my device:

Internet sharing is not working for me. I've used it in the past with several different roms without any problems. I have the Toshiba BT stack and normally, I create a new connection from my PC and select "serial" as the connection type. Then I select Internet Sharing on my PDA, press connect, and then double click the icon on my computer that represents my PDA. Done.

Now, when I try to create a BT connection with my Apache with this WM6 rom, I cannot select a "serial" connection - I can only connect a dialup network option. I initiate the connection from my PC, it dials #777, and then connects to the internet and I'm off and running.

So, I have the internet over bluetooth, but I would rather use Internet sharing. This new wmodem-esque way of using my phone as a modem seems slower.

Any thoughts? Is it just my device? Thanks!
