when i connect my tilt to my pc it starts active sync and i connect to my tilt via my mobiler to control my phone via my pc. when i pull up a webpage it uses my pc's network connection for the internet instead of using the phones cellular connection. is there a way i can force my phone to use its own connection instaed of my pc's?
thanks

Had to confirm that when the kaiser is connected to pc via activesync does it use the pcs internet connection without connecting to 3g or hsdpa?
Monitoring doesnt show usage while sync'd and surfing.
I would say so, it also works over bluetooth sync.
Yes it does
Yes, the Tilt uses the computers internet because when I'm plugged into my work computer and try surfing the web with the Tilt, the network security blocks sites.
thanks for the quick reply. Going to see if i could get this running this thru bluetooth.
Is there anyway to access internet on the HTC if you just have a PC connected to internet ?
using WM5 it's possible using active sync, but after i upgraded to WM6 it's not possible..
any clues ?
upgrade activsync
well....i downloaded the active sync from internet..
my IE on the desktop is using a proxy.. not sure if i need to configure something on the phone.
thanks for the reply
Is Active Sync required?
My nephew doesn't have AS installed (doesn't have a WM phone) and I wanted to be able to conect to the net without having to remember to taked an AS disk with me.
it's possible using wifi and routing the wifi from the pc to the isp
otherwise it's not possible
The only way how i know is whit bluetooth
Whenever I travel I take a bit of internet with me so I can use it in emergencies.
Another way to access the "computer's" internet over your phone is to use internet sharing from the laptop and create an ad hock wireless network between the laptop and the phone. That works great for me in places where there is no wireless but wired internet.
Check out this link if you would like to learn how to setup Ad Hoc Internet Sharing.
I can access the Internet whenever I have the HTC connected through my PC via USB and ActivSync.
Accessing the internet normally engages the GPRS data path, but with the USB to the PC (assuming the PC is connected to the 'net) it connects without engaging GPRS and routes through the PC.
It works on Vista and XP without any problems.
Another neat trick is using the HTC to allow me to access the Internet from my laptop when I'm away from the Office i.e. HTC -> USB -> Laptop -> IE Browser -> Internet. By using 'Internet Sharing' in programs folder.
Don't you just love technology !

I'm trying to set my laptop up to use the td2 to get a connection to the internet. can this be done either via bluetooth wiFi or USB. I have tried to add a bluetooth network connection but the laptop keeps giving an error saying could not connect to the remote device.
When I plug mine into my laptop via USB, I get an option on the device to 'internet share'. Does this not happen for you? I'm not sure whether Windows Mobile Device Center is also needed, but it may be!
I did this today using a Macbook. The USB did not work on the Mac but Bluetooth did. I had to connect to the phone from the computer using ordinary bluetooth first (without network). Then I had to choose Internet Connection on the phone using Bluetooth PAN - which I assume is Bluetooth network. Also had to select Bluetooth PAN on Macbook - was a bit fiddly but it worked. Anyway it does work with USB on the PC see post 16 of the thread here.
cheers both, i will check out the other thread but when I connect the phone via USB to this (work) laptop, I get nothing. My home one uses Vista and Mobile Device Centre, but my work one uses XP.
typically, after a reboot the phone gives of the option to shart internet sharing but the laptop wants to install a rndis connection, but the only way to do this is connect to internet. ironic.
Ok, finally have a proper Interenet connection and downloaded Activesync 4.5 from MS. This looks like it will resolve the situation.
How can I connect to the network, via the usb connection? I connect the X1 in office with proxy server.
when connected to activesync on a pc your phone will have the same network connection as you pc unless you turned off that ability in the pc or ppc end
so connect to activesync on the pc and minimize activesync and surf away

Hi all
I have a speedtouch wireless modem and for connecting to adsl i setup bridge.
so when i wanna connect to internet with pc i should connect with broadband connection.
now my question is how can i connect to internet with htc diamond ? (with these conditions)
i made a cellular connection but it didn't work.
if you got a wifi lan connect to that and your phone will be online
if you don't connect your phone to activesync and your phone will have the same network access as the computer running activesync
thats all you really need to do
