Hello
Here is my situation I have:
-Desktop PC connected to internet
-PDA with WM6
-Laptop.
I installed wmwifirouter on PDA, run the config.
I now try to connect it to PC using USB cable then connect laptop to PDA using WIFI.
WHen laptop connects, it say No Internet Access.
I went to Desktop and set "Allow other networks ..." for the connections that shows up when I plug in PDA in usb.
However, this is not solving my issue, and after a while I get a message on PDA that IP coould not be acquired or something.
WHen I look in PDA at USB stats address is 0.0.0.0.
USB connection have address like 192.168.25.124 or something.
Please help me recover the lost day on this.
Thank you.

Hi community!
I have an USB Bluetooth on my desk computer which has a permanent internet connection. I want to connect to internet with my XdaII and i want to use the computer's internet connection.(and also use bluetooth to sync my pda.) I tried the "connect via bluetooth" option in Activesync program on my pda but nothing happens although bluetooth is on and my computer is discoverable.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thank you for your time.
If you set your Activesync to stay connected after you sync, you should be able to use the internet through that connection.
I just tried it and I am getting 483k transfer speeds.
Thanks,

Hi to all.
In the new roms from WM 6. Have and application called "Internet sharing"
I want to use the USB cable (not bluetooth) to connect mi laptop to internet trought my universal 3G.
How i use it?
I activate the connection. Mark the USB and my 3G definition. Connect. It's connecto 3G. And in the laptop i cant navigate.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.
You have to disable the USB connection in activesync on your PDA, as well on your laptop. Mine worked with WM05!
First, connect the PDA to the net by selecting usb connection and your default 3g connection, push connect and then connect the PDA to the laptop and it will be seen as some modem or something else.

Hi,
I can describe, how I am using this feature in Vista.
First I do prefer to use Bluetooth over USB. The reason: it is very often that I am in the room, were the GSM/3G signal is poor. Then I can place my Uni in the window or other place were the signal is much stronger, and connect with the Uni using Bluetooth. The transfer is more or less on the same level as on USB anyway.
Now, Internet sharing option is a new function in WM6, bit like internet sharing in desktop windows. Our PC is not using the Uni as a modem. It uses it as kind of gateway to internet, meaning it use different protocols then with modem connection.
So, after pairing my Uni with my PC in Bluetooth, I got another kind of network connection on my network connections list. It is marked as closed connection with red mark on Bluetooth icon on this list. Then I go to internet sharing in my Uni and select Bluetooth Pan option and then click “Connect”. It establishes its own connection to internet using setup, previously configured in my Uni.
Then, in my PC I go to Network connections list and just click “Bluetooth network connection” icon. This makes my PC to connect with my Uni via Bluetooth using network (TCP/IP) protocol and use it as normal internet gateway. If I click the icon once more, then I get window showing standard connection with bites transferred, buttons for options, disconnection and so on. It shows that the connection is with 1Gb/s, but this is only for connection with my Uni. The connection from Uni to Internet is , obviously much slower and depends of local conditions and 3G standard.
Hope I could help.
Edit:
If I try to do the same over USB, then there is a problem. After connecting USB cable, my PC automatically goes into AS mode and syncs with my Uni. Then If in internet sharing I select USB and click "Connect" the syncing stops, AS in Uni shuts down (this is OK), but my PC try to install a new driver for new device and it does not find it, so it can not recognize my Uni as a proper gateway to connect with over USB. If it would install a driver then on Network connections list a new connection should show up, probably named as "USB network connection".
That’s the other reason I do not use it this way.
Show second and third post. Expain how to quit USB in AS to use this feature.
I will try this trroght BT, but (for me) via Cable is better, the pda is charging all the time. Via Bluetooth the battery goes down quickly.
People need help. I flashed my cingular 8125 with crossbow reloaded rom, its great but cannot seem to understand how to use internet connection sharing to get my laptop online. under network connections i can see that my phone is connected to the internet. but my laptop refuses to browse any site. i have winxp.

Check your firewall. In this mode, you are loged to a new network with different IP than your IP from your home network, if any. Using internet sharing your computer gets IP from your PPC. In my case it is 192.168.0.xx and the gateway is 192.168.0.1. It means that if your firewall was set to accept your home network with different IP, then you have to set it to accept this new IP as well. Oherways you will not get any comunication through this chanell. Of cource, this suggestion is valid only if you have any other firewall then Windows Defender.

I am using this in Vista. There is something named as Center for Windows Mobile Cervices. This is Vista version of AS. Here I do not need to quite USB and AS. Simply set Internet sharing option in your PPC for Bluetooth PAN and then click "Connect" in PPC. After that, click "Bluetooth Network Connection" in your Network Connections List in the PC. You will get the page with list of bluetooth access points. You should see your PPC device marked as the default device. Bellow you have "Connect" button. Click it and you are done.
By the way, the second and other posts describe the attempt to connect in the old way using modem connection. WM6 does not provide the modem support for PC connection. It means that officialy you can not use WM6 device as a modem like with WM5 or Symbian devices. However, HTC has released the modem driver for WinXP and Vista for new WM6 as an after market support. You can google for this on HTC pages. I never used this, cause this new way seems to me a lot easier. Also I never heard about anybody who succeeded with does drivers.
I use Windows Xp and the firewall is OFF
With the new WM6 rom of Ivan works for me

Hi, just checking, my O2 WM5 rom don't come with the "Internet Sharing" program.
May I know how to get it?
My current rom version is 1.30.107
I have a problem to connect Polaris to PC.
It works without any problems (ActiveSync, copying, synchronizing,...) until I launch application "internet sharing" and try to share mobile internet for my PC.
It did not works, Polaris was not found in computer as any device, no internet sharing works, so I turned off the USB connection for sharing the internet and close the application "Internet sharing" in Polaris.
After connecting Polaris to PC again, Polaris is finded only as "Network Adapter" in device manager as "Windows-mobile network adapter" without drivers (with "?" in picture). If I delete this adapter manually while Polaris still connected, Polaris is found again, but still only in "Network adapters" as "Windows-mobile device".
I tried hard-reset of my Polaris, reinstall of SctieSync. Nothing helped, still the same connections to PC, only as "Network Adapter".
Installed is oficial HTC ROM WM6, czech customization.
I have no idea how to solve this problem.
Can anybody help please??
Many thanks
Open the Internet Sharing app, select the access point (you mobile internet connection), select the connection method (USB or Bluetooth, in this case USB), tap connect... now connect the PDA to the PC, wait a few seconds and start browsing... forget the network adapters, forget everything... just use it
You did not understand me.
The fact that I did not run internet sharing is for me NOT a problem...
The problem is, that after unsuccessful internet sharing I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO connect Polaris to PC in ANY WAY.. For ActiveSync, or to move or copy files, to synchronize Polaris.. Even when application Internet Sharing is turned off......
Polaris is still conecting as Network adapter, no other way..
Check the activesync (PDA) settings...
When cradled
X Snychronize all PCs using this connection:
'USB
Same for the PC
That is of course checked..
Then I'm officially out of ideas... but one more thing can be checked out, if it behaves the smae way on another PC, then the error is in the PDA, if not, then something has gone wrong on your PC...
When I connect the device as-ACTIVSYNC
I can not connect to WIFI or DATA CONNECTION
Why?
any solution?
I reconnected my phone with my pc last night. There was definately an option to use wireless when connected to your pc. Have a look in the activesync options.

Hello!
here's the situation:
I have a pc with broadband connection, a laptop wifi enabled and a pda asus p750. If i connect my pda with pc via usb and activesync.. voila: internet on my pda. But.. the laptop has no internet .
I know there is a little app called wmwifi routerfor my pda. it turns the pda into a hotspot but it shares internet from mobile operator. I want it to share internet from my pc.
is it possible..?
thank you,
ok.. what i've done so far:
installed wmwifirouter on my pda
connected pda to pc
started wmwifi router on pda and chose "usb to wifi" connection
on my laptop i can see the wifi connection i just created on my pda, i can connect to it.. but that's all. no internet on my laptop
Thank you,
This is so much my case as well
Did you find any solution yet?
I messed so much with IPs and Registry for the RNDIS addapter that now WMWifiRouter cant evne start properly the USB
Can you give me the default Registry for HKLM/comm/RNDISFN1/params/tcpip ?
