So PDANet is a work around if you get that issue.

use internet sharing that is already on your phone. there is a reg. hack that you need to do. search these boards and youll find it. if you don't know how to edit your reg., take a deep breath and read. i don't want to sound mean, but there is sooo much info on this board that can answer all of your questions. just take a little time and do the reading. after that if your still having problems, then come back and ask.

once you get good at tethering, look up "wmwifirouter" it will blow your mind.

I think this is the hack for InternetSharing.On a Stock Sprint Rom
Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing]
Then Delete "Extension"="rilphone.dll"
then change "MaxCMCon.... from 1 to 0..

Is this an edit that's necessary with Alltel or could I just use 'Internet Sharing' raw without any issues? I'm really only worried about Alltel noticing the difference in data exchanged and figuring anything out.

it doesn't matter, as long as you have unlimited data plan. now tethering to your phone with out a PAM (phone as modem) is wrong. and of course sprint will tell you the same. of course this doesn't stop me and MANY others from doing it.

sprint knows when your connected to the net, but there is discussion on weather after using the above reg hack if sprint can tell if your using your phone to watch youtube or your laptop. there is no guarantee, but people have downloaded gigs of data a month without any charges from sprint. in fact i don't think i've ever heard of anyone getting charged for this ever (as long as they set up there phone right).

i just go to "internet sharing" thats included with the phone, and select Sprint PCS instead of PAM and never have any issues or extra charges. I tether mine all day will im at work, no registry changing or anything

I want to say this should be used to check your email and just surf the web. I can not stress enough that if cats keep downloading torrents and "gigs of data a month" Sprint will shut down tethering for free and make us all pay. This is more of a sprint knows its going on but letting it slide for right now things. You want to DL "gigs of data a month" do it on your home pc/laptop on your home connection.

So next time use WMWIFIRouter and let everyone share the bits. Tell the guy using the USB to connect his phone that he is not being polite by hogging bandwidth.
