Tethering No Longer Works w/ CAB or WMWiFiRouter...???

bmrisko · #1 (**permalink**) 06-27-2010, 09:49 PM

I went to tether tonight as I have done in the past (I already installed the cab / edited the registry to allow tethering through Sprint) and it kept hanging up at "waiting / check USB connection. For the heck of it I also tried WMWiFiRouter and it was hanging up at "waiting for USB connection" as well. I have restarted my computer and done a soft reset on my TP2 as well.

ANy ideas what could be causing this? I have never had any problems in the past and have not installed anything new recently.

Wirelessly posted (Opera/9.80 (Windows Mobile; WCE; Opera Mobi/WMD-50430; U; en) Presto/2.4.13 Version/10.00)

Same here. I also noticed that other tweaks(GT2L's) were not functioning also.

Bump...any ideas?

I can tether fine by setting WMWiFiRouter to make my TP2 act as a router, but tethering either way (Sprint built-in or Wmwifi) via USB is a no go all of a sudden.

have you tried a different usb cable or pc port.

Yes, I have tried 2 different cables and all 3 ports.

I can ActiveSync and charge my phone just fine.

check the proxy settings on the sprint connection--the proxy settings from your PC might have overwritten the settings on your phone.

Any idea what these Sprint proxy settings should be or how to make sure the computer has not overwritten them?

settings>connections>connections> set up my proxy server.

otherwise it's possible epst settings may be going into full effect now with a new data stream in the mix. in epst (##778#) under M.IP Settings, set MIP_MODE to Mobile IP Preferred.

proxy settings on mine are blanked out--the only think checked is "this network connects to the internet". everything else is either unchecked or blank.

not sure how to keep it from changing when connected via activesync.
