Glad you fingered it out!

lol, crap... now it's doing it again with win7 to. Maybe it's overheating... Or maybe Ma Bell is making it do it from pulling too much bandwidth... Speedtest reports 2M.

23506 v4

Maybe i'll try vin's newest ROM.

Just curious if this issue has been fixed yet, having the same problems only ours is disconnecting after a few minutes... it is driving us nuts!

It doesn't disconnect for me in XP, but it did in Vista and 7. It has to be one of the services running that makes it disconnect. Weird thing is I tether on my girlfriend's laptop that I loaded 7 on and it doesn't disconnect. It is only on desktop computers...

i went into services.msc (run) on windows 7 and disabled two Mobile 2003 services. Runs all night now.

I'll have to try it out and see how it works. Thanks for the info.

Microsoft has a hotfix that somewhat has helped the problem... at least we are not disconnecting every few minutes anymore.

I believe those two services actually are what run your windows mobile device center.... ???

ya you need them for activsync to connect, but the Internet Sharing app doesn't need them to work. I do all my transfers and flashing with the sdcard directly anyway, it's much faster using my card reader.
