Re: How To: Using your 6700 as a USB modem for your computer.

my dialer was giving me problems so I decided to go about the old fashioned way. In internet explorer on your computer go to tool, connections then add a new dial up connection select the modem, then in the number to be dialed is #777 leave the user name and password field BLANK. this way I don't have to use the dialer that came with the USB modem driver. I also have mine setup to were when I set it up it brings up the dial prompt.

wow, this is great being able to use this phone for a modem now. i asked the the guys at the sprint store if this was possible, they said yes, but i would have to change my plan and it would be real slow (dail-up). all they wanted to do was sell me a wireless card and plan for my laptop.

THANKS

Has anyone from a Verizon carrier been charged for using their phone for tethering?

Don't get me wrong, I love the screen on the 6700, but there are web-sites I avoid going to when I am on my phone. WellI no longer need to worry about such a thing.

FYI: I learned this from another guy I was talking to about setting this up and there is a document in the accompanying zip file that he wrote up including screenshots with each step.

Requirements:
1. Before setup an CDMA USB Modem you must verify that you have two files:
?CDMA USB Modem.INF? (The inf contained in the zip file works as well "CDMA1X_USBMDM.INF)
?CDMA USB Modem Dialer.exe?

2. You MUST disable Active Sync! (Ctrl+Shift+Esc --> Processes Tab --> End the processes beginning with wce*)

Installation and Usage

1. On Windows Mobile: Tap Start->Programs->Wireless Modem
2. Select ?USB? as the connection type, and then press the ?Start? button.
3. Connect your Windows Mobile with Desktop PC by USB cable/cradle.
4. On Desktop PC, new hardware will be found. Select ?No, not this time? and press ?Next?
5. Select ?Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)? and press ?Next?
6. Press ?Browser? to specific the folder which contain the ?CDMA USB Modem.INF?, and then press ?Next?
7. Press ?Continue Anyway?
8. Press ?Finish? to complete ?CDMA USB Modem? driver installation.
9. After installation you have a new USB Modem called ?CDMA USB Modem? in Control Panel->Phone and Modem Options
10. Run the application ?CDMA USB Modem Dialer.exe? and then press ?Dial? to make the data connection leaving the user name and password blank.

Once it's all installed here are the shortened steps to get the modem up:

1. On Windows Mobile: Tap Start->Programs->Wireless Modem
2. Select your connection type, and then press ?Start? button
3. Connect your Windows Mobile with Desktop PC by USB cable/cradle
4. Open the application ?CDMA USB Modem Dialer.exe?
5. Then press ?Dial?

If this does not work for you, please feel free to contact me.

Hope this is useul for some of you.

For some reason my internet sharing just stopped working. This worked flawlessly about a week ago. ](*,)
