I did some research and it seems that the 5GB cap does not apply to the Sprint Everything plans but it does apply to the unlimited data plans, which is why customers would like the description "Unlimited" changed.
Whether Sprint keeps a close Eye on this cap is another story. It appears that you have to go over the limit multiple times before any action is taken.

what exactly does this do?

just installed the cab w/o the backlight changes and now tethered via bt...getting rid of my data card immediately.

Alright, so I'm having a problem. I used this on my Diamond and it worked like a charm. Now, however, I've upgraded to the latest leaked Sprint rom, installed it, and it's still showing up as PAM when it used to show up just as Sprint. Any ideas? Is this possibly something that they've corrected iin the new rom? Thanks for your help!

So question, I am getting a diamond soon, so if I install wmwifirouter will it work right out of the box? aka when I install it, I can use it and I won't get charged for the PAM and it will just seem as my normal data usage right? Or do I have to use the tether zip and install that in order to make it not use PAM and not get charged?

The latter. When you launch WMWifiRouter, it automatically opens internet sharing and unless you install the tethering fix it'll use it as PAM. However, mine doesn't seem to be working as I described above. Any help will be MUCH appreciated.

I am alittle confused here.
I am using my Sprint Diamond to tether without any peripheal programs.
I have the stock ROM and when I tether, I click on Internet Sharing, Connect and I am tethering. I checked and my phone says SPRINT as the name when I am tethering.
It would appear that the only reason to go the Wifi router route would be so you can go wireless.
The 5GB cap would still apply because you are still using your Diamond to Internet Share so the usage would show.
The above conclusions are formulated on my experiences and from what I have been reading.

This many paged thread was linked from the HTC Touch Pro thread about using internet on the HTC Touch Pro. I'm trying to read 20 pages thus far but it is simply making things more confusing for me. I just want to use this HTC Touch Pro(Sprint) as my internet modem for my laptops.

Sprint wants to charge a recurring $15/mo or more for the "using the phone as modem" to share the PCS Vision Internet Service from Sprint. Anyone successful specifically with the HTC Touch Pro (no after OEM ROMs), and using the bluetooth with either Windows Vista, or Windows XP Pro versions?

Is there a simple "stop the bleeding already" way to do this? Appreciate this great website forum! Ron
