Thank you for reading this, I really need your help.
Two options: which one below is true or possible?
1- It is possilbe to Connect my Laptop to internet via Dialup connect. on pocketpc phone? and connect my Laptop to pockect pc phone via Bluetooth.
Or should I use the dialup connection on my laptop to connect to internet using Wireless modem on my pocket pc phone?
does this make sense?
I have Siemens SX66.
You must be a mind reader because I was going to ask the same question.
Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated
I've successfully connected my XDAIIs to laptop for internet access.
On USB craddle, you can
1. Laptop connected to internet ( dial up / lan / whatever ) --> XDAIIs sits on craddle and connect to Active sync ---> XDAIIs can access internet
2. Use XDAIIs as the dial up modem via GPRS and your Laptop is able to access internet. This option u will need "HTC HUB" modem driver.
IrDA, you can
1. Use XDAIIs as the "Virtual" dial up modem via GPRS and your Laptop is able to access internet. This option u will need IrCOMM2k for emulating IrDA port on your laptop to see XDAIIs as its modem on its com port.
Bluetooth
This one i never try. I don't have bluetooth on my laptop :-(

Yes, --------GPRS -------- I do not like to use GPRS. I want to use my PocketPC Phone number and dial to an ISP using my ISP account.
Can you help me this. I can connect my Laptop to my Pockect PC phone via BlueTooth dialup connection modem (in my pocket pc phone), but how can I connect my pocket pc phone to the internet using ISP dialup modem and not GPRS.

Hi there,
Follow the steps below.Kindly note that to access your ISP, your SIM card should have Data Services enabled from your service provider.Also, the dial up number should be PSTN Number....viz nos start from 1 cannot be dialed from a GSM Network.Check thiis with your Network service provider.
1.FIrst of all pair your device with your laptop BT, so that your laptop checks the services which your PDA offers viz Serialport,DUN., Activesync etc...
2.Now, go to Network connections on your Laptop and opt for make a new connection.Just take care that you should opt for Bluetooth Modem while selecting the Modem.Rest all is same as you had done for your ISP.
3.Now, just dial the connection...your phone shd be able to maka a data call.
Pls let me know if you were able to do so...Best Luck

Thank you hdubli, I will try it and let you.
How about direct dial up to ISP/PSTN from pda phone?
Can we do that?
Imagine, go anywhere only with pda phone.
Yes one can do that For doing so one has to select the "Cellular Line" while making a new connection on phone and input the dial up number provided by service provider..I suggest consult your service provider for doijg this

You can only get up to 9.6kbps dialing up to an ISP account (CSD service, typically USD$9.99/mo). With GPRS you can get at least 28.8kbps... That's why GPRS is more expensive (typically USD$19.99/mo)...
Now unless you plan to just browse gopher sites (gopher://quux.org/)... I don't think CSD is worth the trouble...

GPRS is fine, but expensive in the UK. It is £2.35 per MB with an 02 monthly contract. Unless you get an 02 Pay As You Go SIM and 'bolt on' 02 Active5. It's £4 for 5mb.
If you use simple old fashioned dialup PSTN/ISDN you can use (for example) a free 0845 dialup (UK2.net) and use your bundled minutes instead.
OK it's slower, but I just want email headers and have over 800 minutes rolled over this month!!

Hi guys,
i need to use my tp2 as dialup usb modem trought my pc. I rember that i can do it with a old htc tytn II ...
Now the qestion is: can i do the same with a tp2 ? I need install a driver ? Which ?
I need use the tp2 for connect to a remote modem NOT for share a internet connection.
Thanks in advance.
create a new connection use cellular line enter the number and user and pass and whatever else then go to internet sharing but use that connection. and it will actually dial to use as dial up...
but i dont really see the point because even tho its dialing a number isnt it still using data FROM the carrier because it has to transfer?
Hi,
thanks for your reply.
I need to connect my htc tp2 to my notebook using a usb cable for start a dialup connection trought windows.
In really i have install on my notebook a RemoteAccess Software that use a dial up modem (and for this i would use my htc) for a number and connect t remote appliance
So i thinks that if i create a new connection cellular line on my tp2 is a not good solution.
About 4 years ago i rember that can do it with my htc tytn using a usb driver form htc cd-rom and install it on my windows system.
Now anybody have you any idea for do it with my tp2 ?
thanks in advance.
Hi ,
anybody have a idea ?
thanks
The previous answer is the way you need to go.
Your speaking in circles, if your PC is dialing a number you need to replace that with your phones connection.
In other words, whatever software on your pc that needs to connect to the internet should use one of the connections you setup, one being "Cellular".
Updated....
I think after a few reads I get you.
Your PC is dialing an access number directly into a remote server?
So you need the phone to just be a telephone line for the PCs modem to dial over?
And you would like to know how to do this through USB?
Is this correct?
I don't know how to do that but my clarification of your question may help get you an answer.
Question can't the server be access by IP address?
Then you could use the phones internet connection.
Good Luck.

I used to do this (dial-up) and since I switched to Verizon PC card I no longer remember how I did it... I think I installed a usb modem driver for my phone, but it wasn't a Touch Pro2...
Has anyone found the Samsung drivers necessary to get the native USB tethering working? I see the drivers mentioned in the user manual, but haven't gotten a hold of them yet...
Manual:
Tethering
Tethered Mode allows your computer to obtain an external data connection by using the device’s wireless data services and a wired USB connection. Tap USB tethering to activate tethering mode.
Important: If you are using your device for Tethering, you may be prompted for additional drivers. The Samsung Mobile Driver for SPH-D710 contains the ADB, CDMA, & WiMAX drivers that are required for using either Tethering (Phone as a Modem) or development tools.
- Go to SAMSUNG and visit the D710 Product page, where you can navigate to the Download Center to obtain this driver.
- The online FAQ also provide detailed information about this driver.
- A wireless data connection can be done by using the device’s Sprint Hotspot feature.
1. Press > and tap > Wireless and network > Tethering.
2. Tap USB tethering to add a checkmark and activate the feature. The USB tethering icon is displayed at the top of your screen.

However at that website, all you can currently download is the manual - no drivers. Any ideas? Anybody know where to get the drivers?
Thanks
There is a 99.9% chance that this is disabled (by Sprint) anyway without using Sprint's $30/mo official method.
Wait for root and modded roms.

Well with a USB cable plugged in, you can turn the feature on, but the computer doesn't recognize it without the drivers. I'm hoping that's a good sign...

I would be thrilled if that were the case. It isn't likely, but, bigger things have been overlooked before.
Please report back with results.
I've got a call in to Samsung tier 3 support and was promised a call back with more info, so I'll keep you apprised.
OP Delivers!
Looks like they put the drivers up. At work right now, but I'll be testing them tonight!
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SPH-D710ZKASPR
Select "Software" next to "Manuals."
Unsurprisingly, it looks like Sprint has disabled USB tethering.
I've installed the drivers, and the computer and phone successfully connect. Once USB tether is enabled, however, the phone will drop both 4G and 3G connections and throw up the following (see attached screenshot):
Error 67: Registration Failure. Your Sprint data service username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again.

I know the software/ drivers are configured properly because I can pass the internet connection on to the computer when the phone is connected to the internet via Wi-Fi.
Really disappointed (but not surprised)...

Not easytether, but PDANet works.
is it free? and doesn't require root?
I haven't tried Easytether on the phone yet, but I can confirm PDAnet works and is free , although it's limited to http only and no https unless you buy the paid version. Easytether changed their application so now it has like a week trial before it shuts down.
what i hate about easytether and PDAnet is you have to have the client installed on the machine already for that to work. i liked how my EVO (rooted) had the option to USB tether on any computer... guess i gotta wait until some good ROMs come out.
Just root the phone people and install wifi tether. Works flawlessly

Yeah, I've tried rooting the phone and then using the wifi tether and it worked for a while then it stopped working. Now I can't get it to connect to the PC.
Would be nice if there was a better way of tethering for free

If you use PDANet, the phone with PDANet installed will automatically detect if the computer has the client installed or not. If it does NOT have the client already installed, it will prompt you to download the windows EXE onto the phone, and then you can install the client onto the computer from the EXE it downloads onto your phone.
It's saved me a few times working out in the field.
I have the Sprint Hotspot hack that allows 4G or 3G to tether via Wifi without the plan. I would like USB tether as well to work, is there something that uses the NDIS instead of their own client? I know both MAC and Windows work with the NDIS device sharing... If not, what's the best one that will tether 4G via USB?
FL29 radio and im running GB 2.3.6 (dont care much about the ICS / Jelly Bean unless they have both 3G and 4G tether'able via Wifi and USB)
Anybody have played with ICS and gotten the 3G and 4G thetherable at least via Wifi? Wifi thether for root didn't work for me, reason why I went back to 2.3.6 and the FL29 Odexed SpotHot fix.
Which OS, with Gingerbread just root it and download the Wired Tether apk, from the same people that make the Wifi tether .apk I really wish they re worked the code for ICS or JB
YES YOU MUST ROOT THE PHONE!!
Otherwise Custom roms all seem to have USB and wifi tethering enabled.

Need some help doing normal dial up networking with my epic, (running CleanGB 1.0) and need to do some dial up networking, (like the old school kind). I just got a ZyXel MWR-222 and it doesn't seem to recognize the kernel TUN module.
So now we're back to 2007, setting logins and passwords, and phone #'s, and APNs. Can anyone help me with what those should be on the current sprint network?
Additionally, how do you connect it? Do you just plug it in and choose charging? Do you choose tethering? Do you do something else?
Any and all help is appreciated. Thank you.

Ur laptop has wifi right? I'm assuming

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
Try that. Its free wifi tether app. No need to use a travel router. Just search for a wireless router on ur laptop and it shoud see ur phone. On the app go into settings, check encryption and change passphrase, then change channel to 10. U should be good to go. This app works. I've use it and tested it for functionality.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
It's not a laptop. It's a mobile hotspot which means I need usb tethering. I have both the wireless and wired tether apps installed, however they won't work in this situation. I need to dial the APN by usb.
Try going into settings, then wireless networks and u should be able to tap on apn
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I have access to the apn settings and have mirrored them on the mobile router, (apn:Sprint, username:Sprint, no pw), as well as many other settings (including combinations of everything blank) with no luck. Tried #777 and *99# as the dialed number.
When u go into wireless networks, do u tap on "tethering"? Or when u plug it in usb, do u get the option for tethering alongside with charging and mass storage?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I have both the wired tether app (http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/downloads/list) as well as the option to tether connecting a usb device. I believe these offer the computer what appears to be a network adapter.
I don't think this device supports that. I used to use this type of tethering back with an old sanyo dumb phone. I think the computer (or in my case the wireless router, http://us.zyxel.com/products/details.aspx?PC1indexflag=PDCA200920&CategoryGroupNo=PDCA200927) is supposed to see a dial up modem.
Now obviously there are APN settings on the phone, (I'm using https://market.android.com/details?id=com.naskit.android.apnsettingsshortcut# to get to them). However, I'm not sure how the APN settings relate to what should be on the wireless router (they recommend no username, password, APN, etc). Moreso, I"m not sure if I should set the phone for charging, tether, or mass storage when the USB is connected.
I suspect that the phone simply lacks the ability to interpret generic whatever generic dialing is used. (The wireless router is designed for single-purpose usb modems as listed on it's page.) And I suspect the wireless router lacks the ability to execute what it wants (in debug mode or such) on the phone.
Ok, when u connect ur phone to ur pc and ur given those 3. Options, tap on tethering, and another screen should prompt u on ur phone. I've done this before, but its been awhile since, so ia m rusty on some of the process..(please excuse me)

I've tried it using the tether option that appears when you plug the USB in. Neither that or the wired tether app appears to work.

ok...what exactly are you trying to tether though? a portable router or a laptop?
a zyxel mwr-222 portable wireless hotspot. You can read about it here: http://us.zyxel.com/products/details.aspx?PC1indexflag=PDCA200920&CategoryGroupNo=PDCA200927
Yea..I know what that is. Its a wireless router. But are using it for a laptop? Does ur laptop not have wifi capability? That's what I'm asking. If it does, u shouldn't need that. I would have to do some further research on the dialup for the epic.

I've got two primary use cases.
1. Access point for a car. ipod, android tablet, 2 laptops, a cell phone or two. It'll also serve as hub for providing access to media stored locally.
2. Access point to stream video/audio to allow remote DJ'ing to a theater which only has sketchy wifi access.
3. As a network core I can use for establishing a network where ever I am.
While there are probably multiple other solutions, this seems to be the best product for those. Except that it doesn't seem to do the job. (The emails to Zyxel support haven't been very promising either.)

Yep other than the car you can download wifi tether beta (google it, if you can't find it I can upload the apk for you tomorrow sometime just let me know) it works great... after downloading and before launching go into the settings and set devuce profile as epic 4g and then the next setting setup method needs to be softap... now you can wirelessly tether to anything that has a wifi driver...

For the purpose of this thread, please assume I do not want to wifi tether directly to my phone and instead want to make the zyxel portable wifi router work.
well if your going to use that router...than you might have some problems. have you check the technical support page for that router?

You seem to be very close minded about a solution to your problem. That being said, what are your concerns with using wifi tethering directly to your phone? Range? 5 device limit? Stability? The built in tethering app (renamed from Sprint Hotspot to Wireless Hotspot) in CleanGB seems very stable to me, compared to older versions of WifiTether and it works in infastructure mode which should work with all devices.
If you also need a wired solution, you could use an older cheap wireless router with a third party firmware as a wireless client bridge. I use a Linksys WRT54Gv4 with DD-WRT running for this purpose.
If you absolutely have to use your zyxel, use a DD-WRT router as a wireless client to your phone and then connect a LAN port on the DD-WRT router to the WAN port of the zyxel. This assumes you are not using the failover option of the zyxel. You can use the USB port of the zyxel to charge the phone.
Edit: Another benifit of the WRT-54G series is that they run on 12V DC so you could easily make an adapter to plug into your ciggarette lighter. I also have a WRT-54Gv6 which will work as well, just not as capable a router as the earlier versions.

I think what iKm going to do is buy a $35 rasberry pi (when they become available). It should support my epic as a tethered usb network device. I can then use the rasberry pi to route both the Epic (and the pi's wifi) as WAN connections to the zyxel's WAN ethernet port. Combined with a verizon usb modem that should give me my choice of 3 WAN connections (including a 3 WAN redundancy).
Hi, I'm using MinCO v7 on my phone and love it. It's essentially AOSP with Franco's kernel.
I would like to disable all tethering to the phone (USB and Wifi) so that it won't turn on. Perhaps even disable Bluetooth so that I have Wifi only on the phone.
I thought it might be as simple as removing some APK's from /system/app.
Any thoughts/ideas?
I don't know why you'd want to go through this trouble to remove tethering, its not the kind of thing you activate by accident.
1) You can only tether via USB with a client BOTH on your PC and phone so no issue there.
2) Bluetooth tethering is a pain to set up and often unreliable..again no issue there
3) Wifi tethering...unless your fingers have minds of their own I don't see why this would be an issue.

Yes, I totally know what you are saying. It's still what I want to do though. Anyone else with some ideas? The point is, if tethering is gone, there is no way to share the phones data plan with another device. I don't want this particular device to be able to share it's data at all.
