Kinda new to the board so If you could send me a private message I might be able to find this again.. thanks
Have a look at chainfire's app which allows you to do it through wifi:

Wi-fi only?
This link appears to be wi-fi only.. will it work with the Sprint Network.. ?
Yeah, what it does is convert your Mogul's WiFi into an access point. Your laptop will access your Sprint connection as though it were connecting to your wireless router at home.
if my laptop is wireless?
I wouldnt need to use my phone if my latop is Wi-Fi.. Guess what I was wanting is a way to use my laptop using the sprint network, for when I cant get Wi-Fi.
I thought is was possable but I must have been mistaken

This is the point. Your Mogul will be your WiFi access point that will use Sprint internet connection. This is for when you CANNOT get WiFi with your laptop.
OMG !
I'll try it one last time...
1. Your laptop (as you just confirmed) is capable of receiving WiFi.
2. Your Mogul receives Sprint's data connection.
Unless you are not aware, your Mogul is also capable of receiving WiFi (like your laptop). What chaninfire's program does is make your Mogul capable of SENDING a WiFi signal while connected to Sprint so that your laptop will receive it. Your laptop will be connecting to Sprint's network through Mogul's WiFi signal. In other words your Mogul becomes a wireless router.
OK. i get it... Sorry.. was confused
Didnt mean to sound like a idiot.. but I was lost thinking that I could only use Wi-Fi.. But now know I can connect to the Sprint network and using wi-fi to connect my Laptop make perfecr sense.. now if I can just figure out how to get it working.. I'll take a lok at the like you sent me.. If I remember it looked confusing but I'm sure its not as bad as it looks... thanks a lot

The program is super simple. I use it to connect my iPod Touch to the net.

If you follow the instructions you will also unlock the internet sharing app. Once you have followed the instructions in the thread about chainfires app, to share your internet over USB,do the following.
1) terminate the activesync app on your handset
2) Run the internet sharing application
3) As soon as its done connecting,plug in the USB cable.
4) Enjoy the internet. A similar procedure can also be used to connect via bluetooth,but you get better speed over USB or via WiFi.
If you want to use wifi,you can either follow the adhoc method listed in the thread,or you can use a wireless access point. To use a wireless accesspoint,set your WAPs local IP address to 192.168.0.2 Internet connection sharing will want to be 192.168.0.1 Now you need to connect your mogul to the WiFi network,and connect your PC to the wifi network. Go into the network properties and set your pc to 192.168.0.x where x is an unused address. Set the gateway and DNS servers to 192.168.0.1 and your on the internet. As far as I know,this should work with multiple computers on your network,and it will connect up easily and seamlessly when you flip the wifi switch on your mogul.
From the WMWifiRouter topic:
Sprint HTC Mogul/SERO Notes
It seems Sprint is up to shenanigans in regards to tethering for SERO users. Those of you running Sprint ROMs should navigate to the following registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing" and delete the string value named "Extension". This will allow you to connect to the Internet via the Internet Sharing app without the dreaded error 67/authentication errors. Previous to this fix, Mogul SERO users would have to connect to the Internet via another method (such as starting Internet Explorer first) before pressing the Connect button in the the Internet Sharing application.
If you're really paranoid (it has been concluded these entries have no meaning when using Internet Sharing), using a registry editor, navigate to the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\WModem" key, and set the "CheckProfile", "Multi-NAI" and "WModemDUN" DWORDS to a decimal value of "0".

WMWifiRouter does this for you automatically, but that isn't much help if you want to share via USB instead of WiFi. The above solution should work with USB as well, and the error 67 goes away. GL
on internet sharing... should it be set to phone as modem or sprint pcs?

With the Mogul you can have your Wifi card on and still be on Sprints EVDO network at the same time. Basically you are broadcasting the EVDO connection wirelessly. I use it on my laptop and get pretty good download speeds. It pretty much like using the Sprint EVDO connection data cards...You have to go into the adapter settings under the connections tab and give it a static IP address (ie 192.168.1.9)
Work with Verizon?
It seems like all of the posts speak about Sprints network, do these methods work with Verizon?
Are there any methods specific to Verizon?
I just signed up with for a SERO account and have one major question regarding the wifi router app... Does it put the phone into "tether" mode? In other words, will sprint be able to detect that you are sharing your connection or does it simply bridge the phone's EV-DO connection to its wifi connection?

It's a bridge but Sprint can always detect it if they wish. A guy over in the WMWifiRouter topic says he has been tethering for quite a while this way and hasn't gotten a bill for it.
Oh So simple.. Bluetooth connection
Well I Got my Mogul like 2 months ago and just stumbled across the internet sharing app and to my suprise it worked.... No Xtra software required
I have a macbook 13'in w 2g ram, bluetooth and all that. I use my mogul with my mac and it works like a charm wish i had EVDO in the area but it is good for now....
Step one: Pair your mogul with your computer.
Step Two: Make sure you Have a connection to the net on your mogul. Use ie to go to a page on your phone (otherwise it will say your username and pass are not right)
Step Three:Open internet sharing on your mogul. Make sure your PC connection is: Bluetooh Pan and the Network connection is: Sprint PCS
Step Four: Tap the connect tab on your phone
Step Five:After the internet sharing has a connection to the net, go to the bluetooth settings on your computer, Select you phone and connect
There you have it Tethering VIA bluetooth with no Xtra software.
here is a question.....what if i need to connect a desktop to the internet using the mogul? how do i go about that? everything is about wifi and there seems to be nothing about connecting a desktop to it.
can someone give me pretty detailed instructs on how as i have never done this before.
thanks
I use pdanet for Verizon Titan. It works very well and simple. Simply connect through usb or bluetooth and bamn..you are connected. It also does not charge you any tethering fee....but acquiring pdanet is a cost unless you can find it somewhere....
problem is I dont know how to "simply" connect through the usb. Im pretty ignorant where this stuff is concerned. is there any free ware that does what pdanet does? not that im a cheapO but hey money saved is money earned right?
I'm still waiting for my tmobile mda to arrive and I have some questions about it. When your using aim or other instant chatting programs, how do you know if their connection is through wifi instead of the expensive tmobile data network? Does the internet explorer use the data network or wifi? I'm just want to know so I avoid getting a 200 page bill from tmobile. Thanks
good question, because t mobile default program it to connect through thier expensive network. i removed my t mobile settings and set up my router with a wep key to allow my mda to the net.
if you need more help please let me know
just starting to play with my hd, when sending an email or browsing the web is there a way to set what method is used i,e, wireless if in range or the orange mobile network, which i will be charged for?
i think by default, if you have wifi connection, it will connect to internet through there before trying to use the mobile network provider's internet.
Does anyone know for certain? Could work out costly on guess work
Yes, it always uses wifi first.
Thanks for the info, I will keep a close eye on my bill just to be on the safe side
It seems AT&T is blocking ports on their 3G network.
I have set up remote access to my NAS via HTTP using an alternate port (80 is in use for something else). With my old 2G Cingular 3125, I had no problem accessing it (still don't if I put my SIM back in it).
But on my new 3G LG eXpo, I can't get there. Neither can my daughter on her Andriod phone. Both IE and Opera say that they can't find the site. I can get there fine when connected via WiFi.
So AT&T must be blocking the port. I tried a few other ports not used by any standard services, and they also all seem to be blocked.
Does anyone know what ports are blocked or a way to easily determine that. Trial and error just isn't the way to go.
Or, is there a way to configure my phone to use something other than "MediaNet" where perhaps nothing is blocked? Something that won't make my data plan get bumped to a tethering plan?
Do you currently have a smartphone data plan? If so, then you should be able to use isp.cingular instead of wap.cingular
Hi,
in my car VW Passat + RNS510 + bluetooth premium
This basically is a cellphone included in the car and uses the rSAP protocol to get control of my cell phone (HTC touch pro 2 WM 6.5).
So far so good.
It pairs fine.
shutdown the phone connection and take full control of the SIM card
BUT
The cell phone also loose the data connection. No more internet access on the phone. No mails, no exchange server access....
This is not only anoying for the internet and mails. It is also blocking any WM application to get data access. In other words, I'm using an application called MOBBYWAY (http://www.mobbyway.com) to get the speed cam, radars and other troubles on the road informations. Now the application is useless
Does anyone knows if there is a workaround to get back the data without removing bluetooth connection?
???
HELP ...
Which brand is your phone and do you have data plan
Yes, I have un unlimited data plan for the cell phone. (Orange)
As I wrote, it is an HTC touch pro 2
bump.
would like to know the answer to this question too...

Hi,
it seems no one has informations on this.
Just to make some additional data in the game.
The car is able to provide the internet connection through the 3G connection of my data plan.
So far so good.
My laptop can use the internet connection of my simcard.
But this support exclusively support Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking profile.
The touch pro2 is not able to get the internet access through this path. No support of the Dial-Up networking.
who has any idea?
The equipment is working as follow
1/ Touch Pro2 contains the sim card with my Orange cell phone account + data plan
2/ The car contains a so called VW bluetooth premium 2. Which is in fact a cell phone
3/ The bluetooth premium pack takes control of the SIM card and shutdown the TP2 phone access as well as the data plan
4/ The bluetooth premium pack act as a phone AND provide my data access via bluetooth Dial-Up Networking
5/ Any device that support this profile is able to get access to internet. This is the case of my laptop
BUT I WANT TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET WITH MY TP 2 cellphone.
This one is not able to do so. The current reason seems to be the TP2 does not support bluetooth DUN access for getting connected to internet....
HELP
I am not sure of the protocols of each of the tech's however if it is not conflicting etc. wouldn't a simple reg edit change the shutting down of the phone dataplan etc???? Is there another way to add another protocol that will work? with the TP2? I know lil naive but I am still learning all this stuff and my brain is aboutr fried. not sure if configuring a MS SBS 2003 for the first time is harder or all of these things you have to remember LOL
I have the same problem with the Galaxy S II.
When i'm connected in RSAP with my VW's car data connection don't work, and so all the app cannot access at internet.
RSAP (Remote Sim Access Protocol) move the line from the phone to the car's nav kit (RNS510).
