Bell Tethering

[frad]

I have heard that it is as simple as a registry entry change, but I don't know what or where to make the change. I am using omj's bell oem rom and don't know if it implements this registry hack.

if anyone knows what change is necessary please feel free to post. Thanks!

Aren't you worried that Bell will implement some tweak in the future and you will be surprised by a multi-thousand dollar bill?

NFSFAN's rom has somehow broken Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) over Bluetooth. It does still work with USB. Some people using his rom (including NSFFAN himself) have reported receiving data bills. Not sure if they were using ICS or some other method of connecting (i.e. phone as a modem).

My advice is the same as what others have said - do a test one month, and even then use it in moderation knowing that in the future you *could* receive a bill for your usage.

PDAnet is about 35 dollars but its worth every penny! and no wont get caught using that because it looks like your just sync'd with you Notebook .. not Tethered. They have a Trial before you buy.. id suggest you try it first... Ive been using it since the First PAN Device.

I bought PDAnet 2.0 and installed it on my laptop, then I installed the CAB on my Bell Mobility Touch. I did not special configurations just the basic install. I turned off the WIFI connection on my laptop. Clicked on the PDAnet icon on my taskbar and selected Connect. It worked perfectly. I am VERY neurotic and even though it works I`m wondering if I was suppossed to do any special configurations to hide Bell Mobility tethering. When I look at the options on my Touch, Proxy Mode is checked and Default Ntework is selected, are those the right ones? Upon connection the laptop says initializing connections, username/password verified, and finally connected.

What do you guys think? Is it all setup properly?

Thanks for the help
