Can you describe the actions you took to make it work? I'm using a mac, which I know most of you aren't, but I'd still like to have as much information as possible so I can try to figure out how to use it with macs, via usb or bluetooth. I know there's a wiki entry for tethering via bluetooth with the wireless modem setup, but the method doesn't work with Internet Sharing. If I(or someone else for that matter) can come up with a solution, I'd be glad to add it to the wiki.

Unfortunately, it seems it won't work with the Mac - see http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1041555&page=2&pp=15 and http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1030837 .

...that blows Appreciate the response though. I wasn't quite sure where to try and get more information on the subject. Doubtful that apple will release a software update for their bluetooth hardware to allow me to do it through bluetooth. I'll probably have to wait on a 3rd party app. Thanks again.
Update...was able to successfully use parallels to tether and connect via usb, but I'm not sure if it's possible to share that internet connection with OSX. Will keep reading.
Cingular 8525 (AKU3)-Internet Sharing with PAN problems
I have a Cingular 8525 (AKU3) and use BlueSoleil BT on my laptop. I followed the instructions described in the forum. After starting Internet Sharing and using PAN I see that the 8525 and the laptop are connected through PAN, but the laptop is not connected to the Internet. What am I missing? I can see that the PDA is connected to 3G, but for some reason on the laptop I can send, but not receive.
I even tried the same with my desktop with the same result. Is there a setting in BlueSoleil that is the cause for not getting on the Internet?
i cant get PAN working on sony ux280p (toshiba stack) with tytn mobile 6.0. it works fine on aku 3.2
Can you describe in detail how you did it?
reinstall or downgrade your bluetooth driver.
i have PAN working on aku 3.3, after i do "windows update", i having the same problem as u. so i have to do "windows restore" back a few week and pan working again.
now i'm on wm6.0, sony ux280p (toshiba stack) cant even find the pan service no matter what i do.
but pan is working on my desktop with windows xp with wm6.0 tho..
Kalrykh, I might be misunderstanding you here. ..but if you're trying to make the phone's "Internet Sharing" provide internet access to your Mac via USB, you can use Missing Sync for Windows Mobile. I've been using it all week (with WM5 AKU 3.3 and now with WM6) and it works *brilliantly*. I just tap "Connect" in Internet Sharing, then plug into my Mac. A few seconds later the Mac is online.
i use missing sync for the mac..all i did was install it and the started the internet sharing program on my tytn and my 8525 and it worked on both
Has anybody used a Nokia N770 or N800 with the new internet sharing system? I am planning to buy one and I want to be able to tether it to my 8525 when I upgrade to WM6.

OS 10.5 will support Bluetooth PAN profile.
I'm sticking with the current official Cingular ROM on my 8525 until then.
OS 10.5 is rumored to be coming out maybe at the end of March.
*wonders*
Why the fuss with bluetooth? the speed isn't fantastic.. stick with good old usb.. =)

dont like cable! but i have no choice! bt pan mobile 6.0 dont work with toshiba stack. but usb pan does work..
found no answer yet.
I tried both BlueSoleil1.6 and Widcom5.0.1 on my laptop XP with my WM6 based Qtek9100, both MyBluetoothWorkplace and Internetsharing show the connection is established, but IE (on the laptop) can't browse anything (while PIE will work over GPRS).
When I Ping the device IP interface (eg.192.168.0.1), it returns "request timeout".
That's strange! any help on that?
Hi Guys, My laptop wifi is broken so i'm wondering if it is possible to share my Wing's Wifi to my laptop via USB.
It is. I don't know about a default rom, but you can internet share off your phone's 3g on the rom i use, juststable. I've only figured it out for 3g though, not on a wifi network.
i''m using FingerMe currently but I used JustHome 19 before and I can't figure out how to make it work

You just run the Internet Sharing program included in the ROM, connect via USB, follow the program's directions, and you're off!
(Unless apreincher removed internet sharing...)
It should work with your WiFi connection on your phone, too.
Oh, and, on a WM6.5 ROM, it's called Modem Link.
hmmm.. i still can't make it to work. here's what I want to accomplish
- Connect my Wing to WIFI
- connect wing to laptop via USB
- share the Wing's Wifi connection with laptop
my laptop's wifi is broken so i'm currently looking for alternatives..

Hmm, well you said you are using the Modem Link program from WM6.5, correct???
You can install the original Internet Sharing program, here: http://thewingster.com/internetsharing.aspx
(direct download: http://thewingster.com/Documents/Internet Sharing.CAB)
Maybe that'll work for you, if you aren't using the Internet Sharing version already. And also, I think you're supposed to start the internet sharing, and then connect your USB. Otherwise ActiveSync might interferre.
ace, have you actually done this?
As far as I know, the default Internet Sharing program wont actually share the phone's wifi connection with the host computer.
The solution is to use Internet Connection Sharing Control v0.21, which is a third party application that was created specifically for arranging the data stream however you want. The author touts it as being capable of "Wifi to USB - basically the pda acts as a wireless network card for the PC (neat, eh?)." Looks like it might be a somewhat complicated program to figure out, but it should accomplish whatever he's asking.

The default Internet Sharing program has a connection called WModemLink, which might be WiFi.
I never tried it though, so it's true that the third-party app is probably better.

it's working now! i just used the CAB installer
i have a huge problem ..well here's the thing,i have pc without wifi but there i have a ppc(xperia x1) which has a wifi..so i want to use my ppc to scan wifi networks on my pc(connection : ppc with wifi on>usb>pc)..this is needed because i want to crack down that locked networks,i cant do that on x1 because i havent found any good wifi pen-testing tools.
i have tryed this showthread.php?t=341398 but its so hard to understand ..
pls help me,post links or something .
(sorry if it is in worng section..)
what i want to do is basiclly have wifi on the pc using the pda's built in antenna...
http://www.wmwifirouter.com/
i already have that but i dont know how to make it work...
That depends on ISC compatibility. Many devices can't share from 3g data to wifi properly.

That, and this should work, but your PC should have WIFI to search.

i dont have wifi on pc -.-
what i want to do is basiclly have wifi on the pc using the pda's built in antenna... so i was wondering if it is possible to make the pda some sort of adapter for the pc to use via usb/bluetooth?(i want to search for some wifi networks through that connection,i will try to crack wep key )
Wifi to USB
Ok, i was searching for the same, but not to crack wep key ...anyway i found this. ICS Control, it has a lot of settings and looks like its made for experts but it will work for you.
I can not test it at the moment but what i get from that post, it does the job!

lysdexical said:
Yes. I guess I should point that out as that is probably what people want to do with it. It should be able to share between any set of adapters. The common ones of course would be:
Cellular to Wifi,
Cellular to Bluetooth PAN,
Cellular to USB.
But it should also work with more "interesting" combinations like:
VPN to Wifi - get wireless clients onto a VPN
Wifi to Bluetooth - allow bluetooth network devices to access a WLAN.
Wifi to USB - basically the pda acts as a wireless network card for the pc

nice,thx on that... is there any tutorial for this ,its complicated as i see
well i have managed to do somthing ,now my pc sees the phone as LAN network ...but still i dont know how to search for other wifi netowrks..
I've successfully installed and used the WiFi sharing app but have found a few things that would be useful such as:
Variable length, alpha and/or numeric Key for access.
Ability to turn ON/OFF the SSID broadcast.
MAC Address Filtering (limit access to certain MAC addresses).
Ability to support WEP and WPA (one or the other).
Anyone have any thoughts on this or registry mods that may implement the above? I just don't feel very secure with broadcasting the SSID and not having a more robust key or encryption.
how did you get the wifi sharing to work? i have tried numerous avenues, and two different cab. files, but i cannot get it to work. here is the short thread i started to get some help, but i still cant get it to work. any suggesttions you have? thanks i really need this to work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=674769
I just installed the .cab file, re-booted the HTC HD2, and when I turned on sharing I just entered the desired SSID and a 10 digit numeric key for my PC to use when logging into the HTC. That's it, nothing special.
I'm just looking for alternatives that do NOT broadcast the SSID and have better encription and key alternatives.

I honestly haven't seen any solutions that incorporate all that, though I have seen the same question asked several times. It's not really an perfect solution (mainly the fact it only does ad-hoc connections), just gets the job done in a pinch.
cornholio, which exact cab did you use that worked for you? There's a couple available, and we're still trying to get one of them to work for poor tippingvan here...
I use "XDA-Tom_Codon CM Wifi Internet Sharing"

Thanks for the confirmation..I had suspected it would work, just haven't tried it m'self. But...I think soon I'm going to need to just try each one of the (at least 3) cabs floating around for wifi sharing and see if I can figure out the exact differences

still doesnt work, this one says that there is a connection on my phone, but not on my laptop. I'm gonna try another laptop and see if it works.
the xda wifi sharing is working great on my TMOUS HD2, but I dont understand the different options under "internet connection" heading. wap.voicestream...., internet2.voicestream....,etc.
currently using internet3.voicestream and all is fine. But it seems to only allow a tethered connection when I have my wifi toggled 'on'. what if Im out of wifi range?
uhm i use Tom Codon's CMinternetsharing but i wish i could pair to more devices. i want it to be a wifi router not wireless tether. help?

In my experience, if you use the epc.tmobile.com or wap.voicestream.com, you may possibly run into 2 issues. Both of those can be throttled, and if you use wifi sharing while roaming, it may deny access and all you get is a white page telling you your roaming, internet plan not appliable or some crap.
On my hd2, if i use internet2.voicestream.com, i can both roam with it while wifi sharing and i don't get throttled. Have not messed with internet3 but that apn is for vpn users, you get a direct ip vs. a kinda nat ip on the rest. Again, this is my experience. Your milage may vary
I searched quite a bit and it seems that there is still no option of connecting the Vogue to the internet through Bluetooth PAN and PC's internet connection. Can anyone confirm that PAN is still not possible with the Vogue.
Thanks

I set up a working pan a couple of years ago. The problem is that the framework doesn't recognize pan as a valid internet connection, so the connection checks for browser, market, etc. fail. The only way I know it was working is that Google maps worked. Go figure...
that problem may not exist in the cm builds. I have no clue what build I was using when I tried it.
Thanks, I'll have to look in to that.
so it doesn't seem to work.
I'd love a solution to this problem too.
Right now, I can't connect to the internet with my Vogue because it is unactivated. I've been trying to get a Bluetooth PAN to work for the past year or so, but I've given up. It's just too old to be worth it!
