Phone using computer's internet connection?

[scott1998ta]

I'm connecting my touch pro to my XP pc using the usb cord and when I do the phone starts using the computer's internect connection. For most people this wouldn't be a problem but for me, the security software on the PC takes over and stops me from getting to certain sites. I use my phone to get on sites such as facebook for example since my work pc blocks it. I need my phone to stay charged since using the web drains the battery and the phone will die before the day is up. I don't want to bring my home charger to work plus I like to use MyMobile to see my phone screen on my pc monitor. How do I get the phone to use it's own internet connection instead of the computers?

There are 2 options: when you connect the phone to the computer, you'll get a prompt asking what kind of device you want to 'connect': the phone (activesync) or the memory card (disk drive). If you choose the later the phone will behave just like a flash drive so it will use its own internet connection for everything. The disadvantage is while your phone is on this mode, you won't be able to access the SD from inside the phone.

Drawback to doing that is it activeSync doesn't work and stops the MyMobiler program from working as well. Looks a lot better when I'm typing on my computer keyboard rather than holding my cell phone and typing on the keyboard. Trying to get it to still activesync but use it's own connection.
