Free Tethering? I think so.

[B18DelSolT]

The way i got it to work with internet sharing was first i changed only the Multi-Nai in reg, and then did ##coded#, and changed the profile value to 0, soft reset, phone provisioned and then worked fine, no error code 67 any more.

here is my speed test results


P.S. Im from Connecticut

i've had the 67 error nightmare that everyone else has had...i actually was on the phone with sprint tech's for 6 hours. My internet would not work aftr a hard reset and i used the ##786# to actually wipe my entire phone completely and re-entered my profile and phone numbers and it still wouldnt work. For some reason...the next day...my phone's internet started working. I think my profile actually got messed up at sprint somehow. They are shipping me a new phone so if i cant get the tethering to work on this phone i'm giong to use my new phone and see whats up with that one.

i'll edit this post later and let you know my progress...i feel your frustrations!

Just so I am sure after you have all of this setup you just leave it on "Phone as a Modem" for the default under the setting,connections right (you don't change it back to Sprint PCS after you are done tethering)??? Using the web on the phone will work just as it did before correct??

Thanks,

There is no need to set it for PAM, just leave set to PCS.

It's so easy I don't understand why anyone has a problem, just make sure activesync is installed as it also installs the modem drivers.

1. Change registry entry for rilphone.dll
2. Plug usb in computer only
3. Open Internet sharing, leave settings usb and PCS then hit connect
4. Plug usb into 6800, wait a few seconds for it to set up connection on computer, you can now close IE now as well.

That's it, remember when your done hit disconnect on your 6800 FIRST no matter what.

This is the procedure that works for me, with the exception that I have to hit connect when there is a active data transfer. If I do it while connected and not transferring data it disconnects and tries to reconnect then kicks the 67 error. This happens even after the wmodem regs are 0zd out

So there is no need to do the whole ##3282# step???

Well I just got around to trying this

1) Performed reg edit multi-nai from 1 to 0
2) follwed the posted steps by Primenall
-If I leave network connection as Sprint PCS everything connects fine
-If I switch it to Phone as Modem I immediately get error code 67
-when attempting to connect via bluetooth I get a message on my notebook that my device has rejected the request

I'm confused

According to Primenall above your not supposed to switch it to "Phone as a Modem".

Yes I know, however, others had claimed better results on speed tests using phone as modem so I gave it a try, just like how some reported bluetooth dun was always working
