Works like a charm! Just what i've been looking for.

Re: Get Wifi Tethering working on the Verizon Omnia I910
 

Guys once you have connected the USB and run the ICS program and connect on that. How do you connect via the PC ? cos when i just click IE or Firefox or something i get page cannot be displayed. and when i run IPCONFIG i get a 169 IP meaning no internet. Any help?

Contagous...

all the Ipconfig and release stuff ur doing isn't necessary...how do u normally connect ur computer to the internet... via wifi or by Ethernet cable...?

if by Wifi, try turning it off....

then go to start/programs/IntShrUI open this program and click connect make sure where it says -
PC connection it reads - USB
Network Connection reads - Broadband access

if its working properly the status should say connected....it should work under those settings...

the other thing u need to check, are u able to surf the web on ur Omnia thru Opera or PIE...? if not u have a different problem...

normally wifi and yes i switch it off, and then the program on phone says connect broadband access and seems to work, but then when i run something like Internet Explorer on my laptop and try to run a website it just comes up page cannot be displayer no internet connection found. Im on vista, and i was just running the ipconfig tools to see if its online.

Re: Get Wifi Tethering working on the Verizon Omnia I910

the other thing u should check, is in ur network and sharing center on ur Vista laptop, there u can troubleshoot any connection problems I'm gonna drop a couple screen shots of what ur Omnia should read if it working...I'm doing this connected with my Omnia as we speak...

Re: Get Wifi Tethering working on the Verizon Omnia I910
 

Ok i checked your screen shot, and mine looks identical, but when i load something like IE on my laptop i get nothing :(

Re: Get Wifi Tethering working on the Verizon Omnia I910
 

when u connect ur Omnia via ICS, have you looked at ur Network and sharing center on ur laptop to see the connection status? this is also important...

ur network and sharing center should look like the screen shot I attached if the internet is working properly...

Re: Get Wifi Tethering working on the Verizon Omnia I910
 

Here is what mine looks like when attached to the Omnia, something is defo wrong when its connected to my phone.

Any ideas?

*EDIT*

By the way i'm on a stupid Vista Home Laptop. I dunno if that makes any difference.
