I setup WinMo Internet Sharing on my HP iPAQ 910c today, and it works great.

My question is in regards to Rogers Wireless (since the OP and a few others here have mentioned it specifically). Does the tethered data usage get deducted from your regular data pool (500mb in my case), or is it charged separately?

I had some concern, so I contacted Rogers and talked with both a standard CSR as well as their Data Plan people, and neither could tell me anything more than “tethering is not supported by Rogers, and you may be charged alot for using it” (not very helpful).

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

With regards to doing the opposite, and using the computers Internet connection on the windows mobile device using USB. I thought this was a standard feature. When ever I connected through USB active sync my mobile device used the main Internet connection. I’m sure there was even a setting to turn it off in active sync.

I’m using a TMobile Dash just like yours. However, even after connecting to a WiFi network, under “Network Connections” in “Internet Sharing”, I only see “TMobile Data” and “TMobile MMS” as options – I do not see the WiFi network. Any ideas how I can connect my laptop through my Dash using the WiFi network?

In the screenshots above, “Rogers Internet” looks like a wifi network, so I don’t know what’s happening in mine.

Thanks

I am currently using the GPRS (global package radio service) to connect internet via. mobile phone. Actually the connection is too slow as it is a wireless broadband service :(

I have done this before with my Dash. It works much batter with Vista than with my older Xp sp3. Is the speed the same connecting through the dash as it would be with a data card? If the data card still uses edge and gprs I would assume the speed would be the same unless they come out with a new 3g card …right? Just wondering if the card would be faster.

a big flaw is that you’re disconnected when you start a phone call… this wasn’t the case with my old SonyEricsson w880
