Hi Success,

Could you put your comment in a Dummy-Proof way fro me please. What do you mean by "ics"!?!? Can you spell it oput or direct me somewhere so it gives me a Step-by-step guide!?!?

Thanks,

G!

ICS is a program included in Sprint WinMo devices called Internet Connection Sharing. Are you trying to tether to a Mac or a PC?

No problem, but since you are on windows i would suggest using the USB mode whenever you can. it's much faster as you can tell from my sig. I am forced to use BT as i am a proud Mac owner, so BT is my only option. If you need any help setting it up, please feel free to report back. If i cant be of help im sure someone on the forums can be.

Hi Negrito,

Do you have a "Favorite" guide or instruction that I should follow. I have printed out the "TalynOne" guide and "SledgeHammer" guide.

Which is BETTER!?!? Or is there another one!

Thanks,

G!

Sorry i never read either one. I just did it, but im pretty tech savvy. Just try and do it, then if you have any problems or questions come back and ask. None of this will hurt your phone in any way so just try and see what happens.

I didn't have any problems setting up BT PAN-based tethering w/ my HTC Touch (stock WM 6.1). I'm using XP, if that makes a difference... Are people having problems with this, or are y'all trying to do something different and I'm misunderstanding?

I have everything set up but I keep getting Error code 67. I do not have a user name or password on my phone so I am not sure why it will not work. I installed the BT cab file listed in this forum and I see the BT PAN and Dial up but when I try to connect with either one it fails. I have latest rom from Sprint.

doesnt work for me, go to comm manager, internet sharing,

usb works fine

bluetooth pan says "device setup finished, connect bluetooth pan"

on my pc i have found the device but do not have bluetooth pan as a service, only have file push, vcard, and after downloading the cab in this thread - dial up networking.

dial up networking sets up and installs but i never get connection.

i have xp home and the latest htc touch rom from the htc website (updated about 2 month ago). also i am using sprint. anyone know what im doing wrong?

Please help, i hate using cables and my touch usb port is ****ed up so i have to hold it a certain way to make it work.

Thanks for your posts Steve. Using an HTC Touch and Win XP, I was striking out with BT DUN. But after installing your cab file from post #12 and following your comments in post #17, I just about had it working. The only extra step needed was to go to Control Panel > Network Connections on the PC, right click on Bluetooth Network Connection under Personal Area Network, and click Connect. It's working fine now with ICS.
