Yes, it is.
Just connect it to your pc. That's it.
Through Active Sync it will automatically recognize an existing internet connection. Works even via Bluetooth. You just neen an Active Sync Partnership with the device and then you connect it the way you want, Internet connection will then be shared

I was using wm 2003 se and when I connected my BA to pc
via usb cable the ba will connect to internet automatically. But
as I upgrade to wm2005, my BA can not connect to internet anymore using the same usb connection. It looks like the pc is treat my BA as a SERVER or NETWORK CARD not a CLIENT.
I want to know how to configure the network to let my BA
share pc internet connection? Many thanks!
1. With my old PDA (Magician) I could browse Internet through my PC using USB cable and ActiveSync. Now, with my Artemis I cannot. Althought it's connected by cable, always tries to go GPRS or EDGE when I open Internet Explorer and go for a web page. What's wrong? (Browsing the web by WiFi goes well, so it's not a problem at home, but there is no wireless LAN in my office.)
2. I can sync my Artemis with PC Outlook software by cable or by Bluetooth without any problem. Would it be possible somehow to sync by WiFi as well? Presumably it would be quicker than Bluetooth.
cheers,
ctibor
For your works PC check what version of Active Sync is installed, I don't have the Orbit but both my HTC Artemis and MDA-CIII will connect and surf the net via a cabled connection - can't comment on sync over Wi-Fi as I have never bothered with it. I find it easier to plug the devices in each night to sync and charge - Mike

You may want to check that Settings>Connections>USB to PC>Enable advanced network funtionality is ticked

Yes, it IS ticked.
But anyway, thanks.
on device
start>settings>connection>wifi>network adapters
set 'my network card connects to' to 'the internet'
on pc
open activesync
file>connection settings
set 'this computer connects to' to 'the internet'
should be all fine then.
I have no problem to connect to the internet (to update weather, news etc) when I connect my P3300 to my desktop (which connect to the internet through a hardwire modem and a hardwire router). When I connect the P3300 to my laptop (the laptop is connect to internet through the WIFI rounter), I then cannot update those weather or news in my P3300. What setup do I need to change in the P3300 in order to be able to get to the internet through the laptop's WIFI connection? Thank you for any help.
Should happen automatically if you have a standing ActiveSync connection. No special settings needed. On the other hand - Check your firewall. Maybe some soft on the laptop is preventing your PDA from getting access to the internet!
Thanks Theonly1....one other thing though, I am using Vista ultimate x32....
not tried this yet but....just plug in and it will recognise the phone as a modem or GSM connection for internet surfing on the laptop?
Thanks again
Thanks for the feedback
Hi,
Thanks for the feedback. I have try to disable the firewall, but it still cannot connect to the internet. By the way, the laptop us window XT. If I enable the WIFI on the P3300, then it can connect to the internet by it's own WIFI. But if I disable it's own WIFI, then it did not connect to the internet throught the laptop's WIFI connection. I think there must be some setting in the network connection, so that it will be able to use the laptops WIFI and get information through it. But I do not know how. Any help is appreciated. Thanks again
hi guys
i need some help for internet sharing...just because i dont understand how to let it works...
wheni connect and syncronize my pda i try to lunch internet sharing...but it ask me options for usb or bluetooth
with bluetooth i cant use internet (in menu-->BT settings i have my pc but no service in the list)
with USB i have to create a connection (Connection settings-->??) because i have to create a connection...but no usb connection is mentioned in list
maybe i misunderstood internet sharing mean...i can use my PC connection to surf on pda right?
Using your PCs internet connection on your P3300 should be automatic when connected through Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Centre.
The program on your P3300 called 'Internet Connection Sharing' is so you can use the P3300 as a wireless modem and share it's Internet connection with your computer.
I recognise this problem however I have some what other.
If I connect to my PC the PDA is connecting directly by GPRS.
My details are in internet sharing are:
Status: disconnected
PC Connection: USB
Netwerk Connection: T-Mobile Internet
How do I manage that the PDA makes a connection with Internet with only USB and not creates a network connection for which it's trying to connect to by GPRS.
HI
I'm trying to share internet using the USB cable and activesync, I already configured my internet connection to share it with the new "local area connection" created when the HD is plugged in, but it doesn't work!
and by the way my computer has an IP:192.168.1.X, but the local area connection has an IP:192.168.2.X
really I even don't know if this is possible, but I did it with my old palm then I thought it can be possible.
thanks!
Using usb or bluetooth with activesync will share in automatic the PC internet connection without the need to set internet connection sharing on the pc

Either with OR without my HD can't see the internet connection on PC with active sync over USB.
Huh
I just plug my HTC Touch HD into the usb port and select "Internet sharing" and it comes up straight away, even works from scratch on windows 7 cos i tested it!
