Well, we still know nothing of your setup (phone, ROM, etc.) just that you are probably using AS 4.5. Do you mean you can't connect via GPRS? or you can't connect via the USB cable to your computer's internet connection? or do you mean something else?
IF it is the GPRS or the USB then the solution is ALREADY posted, so please search for it. If it is "something else", well, good luck.

You can do it through USB, Bluetooth or IrDA.
These instructions are for universal, but the same applies for TyTN:
BlueTooth
IrDA
USB

Wiki updated, I've put it on FAQs:

DUN
Is there a way to use DUN now that it's been disabled because of Internet Sharing?
New Tyten and Vista
Ok, I've been through the 3 ways to connec as a modem, I actually manged to connect ages ago with XP.
I now have a new Tyten, well new for the states but probably old in the rest of the world.
Anyway the New Tyten has a thing called Internet Sharing instead of wireless modem
None of the old settings are there anymore.
It also has a new way to connect via Blue Tooth Pan.
I've tried the Pan way but I had no luck, the connection seemed to work but I couldn't get on the internet.
I then tried USB, I couldn't get Vista to recognise the Tyten, even when I turned off the active synch, anybody got any ideas????
with Vista and WM6 internet sharing I think its easier than DUN. there is a whole how to in the help program on your hermesjust open the help app and search for internet sharing. just make sure your phone and laptop are connected via bluetooth and then open the internet sharing app and click connect make sure its set to bluetooth PAN. on my laptop I have a little bluetooth icon when its on so I right click that and then connect via persoanl network and then a little pop up pops up and I click on the connect bottun and it connects in about 15 seconds pretty easy! I know for USB you have to open the WMDC connection settings and uncheck allow usb connections.
Thanks
Cheers for that, I'll give it a go, although to be honest I've been trying it all afternoon..
I get the connection but no Internet connection..
Help Still needed
Ok, the plot thickens, I found drivers on the HTC Europe site to connect your Hermes to Vista.
I uninstalled all of the previous active synch hardware and also thre previous modem
When I plug the phone in it doesn't open the new downloads.
Any ideas, I'm running Windows 5.1, is there an official Windows 6 I can update to?
Some help with Macbook
So the instructions are great but how does it work on an Apple Macbook? I've searched through the forum many times without any luck. Any ideas on how to connect via USB and/or bluetooth?

my phone was working fine but when I tried to set my wife's up to tether it wouldn't show new hardware found when plugged in and when I tried to manually install the driver the process bix just kinda stalled out and wouldn't go forward with the driver even though I had browsed to the right one. I had to uninstall the driver which was viewing the phone as a serial device. if you're having this trouble then try following te directions in the link above. it worked for me...
Hi All,
I'd like to use my Hermes as an USB modem for my laptop. I have checked the net and found some articles about it.
But, it says that I have to use wmodem application on my Hermes. At this moment I have a HTC 2.11 ROM on it (I have changed my T-Mobile hungarian, because it was a piece of ****), and I can't found this Wireless Modem application.
Can anyone help me to solve this USB modem issue?
Modem Driver and Manual D838Pro
Thank you very much.
But I need the PPC WModem application, because it is missing from my ROM installation, or maybe I'm so stupid to find this.
can someone post the procedure or software in english for wireless modem for hermes!
thnks
wmodem is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=306041&highlight=WMODEM
This is how I do it.
I just connect it through internetsharing.
Disable Active Sync and see that you have a local network to your windows mobile. Just Start webbrowser.
Works great for me.
Hey!
I'm new to all these great programs, so could someone explain to me how to use the WModem, what I can do with it, and what it is for?
Thanks in advance!
Why bother when you can do it much easier with Internet Sharing. Just plug in the USB cable. Starting Internet Sharing and off you go.
Agree, using Internet Sharing is the best & easiest way to go!
o rly?

im using the wm6 rom for htc universal...
tried using the internet sharing as the wireless modem is a bit complicated,
everytime i try it, i turn off activesync and then is says the device is not recognised and nothing happens... im on 3 mobile if it helps...
my friend has a mda vario 3 and his works jus fine on t mobile... any help?
I used the internet sharing in my hermes, but seems there is just one problem that is really irritating. Everytime, after connecting, I have to soft reset the phone because the disconnect button will not respond. The only to disconnect is through the gprs/3g soft bubble icon near the signal strength. After that when I try to start the internet sharing again, it will just not work. Anyone have the same experience?

You don't say which rom you are using? If you are running WM6 then you have the same problem I have. Internet sharing just refused to see the phone (in my case an XDA Exec - HTC Universal) as a modem. I found help here by searching. There are posts on this in particular complaints that Microsoft pulled Dial Up Networking (DUN) support from WM6 and some later WM5 roms in favour of Interner Sharing . This forum has help on how to reinstall DUN via a reg hack and it worked fine for me. Go search.
If this is indeed your problem, here is the link which worked for me...

Anyone else having trouble with the internet sharing not working? Ive gotten 2 different errors-
1. Can not connect for an unknown reason
2. Connection has been canceled by host provider
Ive tried restarting both the computer and the cellie.... any ideas?
Do you have activesync on the recipient computer? Are you starting internet sharing BEFORE connecting?
Sorry... a rather limited amount/attempt of help
I do have acticesync on the computer but it is not connected when using the connection sharing- Also, I do start internet sharing beforehand... Any ideas? I can't figure this out to save my life...
you have to connect activesync up first and let it sync the phone. once the sync is done then you can initiate the internet sharing. if your on the sero plan you need to have the regedit done first before it will accept the PAM connection
Have you tried reinstalling the networking cab file?
where can i find the netword cab file so i can reinstall it
im having the same problem

hi,
does anybody know if we can use internet from pc on the x1 via bluetooth...
i tried finding on google but in vain...can anybody help me regarding this...
ps: i am aware that we can use internet connection via usb cable...what i want to know is that can we use it via bluetooth...and whats the procedure...
thanks in advance...
so many views and no replies???
i really only think it will work the other way around. if you have 3g using the x1 as a bluetooth modem so you can get internet on your pc. unless you have a highspeed internet connection on your pc that isn't already wireless, in which case you can buy a usb wifi adapter for pretty cheap. i dunno if this was any help...
bleh. disregard most of that. i'm sleepy... i only read half. yes it is possible to use your phone as a bluetooth modem though
thanks dude...
the thing is that i hav a really fast pc connection and its cheap...whereas the phone internet service is costly...so i was just wondering if its possible...(net fron pc to phone via bluetooth)
thanks anyways...cheers
Actually there is a way.....
If you establish an bluetooth active-sync connection.
You should be able to surf the net via the bluetooth connection...
But it is still more efficient to go by wi-fi....
Stuart
awesome dude...ill check it rightaway..thanks
doesnt work...detects the serial port..but connection fails..
I know that with Palm OS PDA we used Mocha PPP, perhaps you can give it a try.
Else perhaps an adhoc connection if you want to try Wifi.
yes being connected to activesync with bluetooth give the phone the network access of the pc
been doing it since i had an old wm2003 device
or you can do this if you dont want to use activesync

Try initial the BT detection from yr PC (or the other way as I don't remember.). The "serial port" will be replaced w/ ActiceSync eventually.
It does work but it depends on your contract
The carrier company can tell if you are browsing through your phone or using internet sharing. I am on O2 and it does not have this, but if I put my T-Mobile sim card in, it works fine. PC's use higher bandwidth and this costs the mobile companies.
If you want to use it, I recommend using the USB lead as bluetooth and 3G connection will abuse your battery.
To use, press start, programs internet sharing. You can only use it if you have activesync on your pc, USB mode is activesync and your mobile provider lets you.

danjwalker
he want to do the opposite he want to surf using his computers internet not
letting his computer use his phone internet
so i was right the first time. all he needs is a usb wifi adapter.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nintendo_Wi-Fi_USB_Connector
something kind of like that
and you won't even have to use bluetooth after you set it up. just turn on your wifi in the comm manager

This method may not work anymore since PAN client is being removed in recent WM release. You may need to try this to get PAN client working. I posted my working experience over there w/ my Att tilt. But this method require a lot more effort to get it working compare to activesync.
yeah... you guys are backwards on this

why would anyone want to buy additional hardware when it "should" be possible to use the current internet connection on your PC over bluetooth?

i thought the bluetooth internet sharing only works one way...?
if you go to internet sharing on the phone, you choose bluetooth pan and then a connection that your phone uses to connect to the internet. that's not what he wants. someone correct me if i'm wrong and there's another way to do this bc i'm really not sure.
