Internet

Could anybody tell me step by step how to use the internet on my phone on my laptop? By bluetooth or usb... Ive tried and i think my computer is the problem but i just want to be sure im not doing something wrong.. Thanks

I usually connect the phone AFTER setting up Internet Sharing, as I've found that doing so beforehand will sometimes initiate an ActiveSync connection that borks the whole process. Of course, you can always disable USB connections in the ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center settings, making this a non-issue.

Well I tried it and it says connecting but on my computer it shows it trying to connect but saying no network access, i have unlimited data and i had a perfect signal so idk what the problem could be... any ideas? Or does anybody know how to set it up over the bluetooth link?

Here you go, step-by-step:

And just a friendly reminder: you could have found that by just typing "bluetooth" and "internet" into the Search box in the upper right hand corner of every page on this forum

I tether via bluetooth a lot. Nearly every workday. Have used both Vista and XP. Xp is easier to get set up. If using Vista, remember the OS is trying to protect you from hackers at the $tarbuck$. You will need to tell your computer that you trust the network (on my laptop with Vista it was called Network). You need to make it either a  private or home network. Once your OS trusts your network, you will be good to go. I believe the same is true for 7, but I only use 7 when providing technical assistance to those who have newer systems than I do.

Thanks RC, i knew that was there just didnt want to mess with the sync crap lol. I have a sony vaio with windows 7, i did have my wifi enabled ill try it with it turned off, thanks guys for the ideas i will try then thanks for the help
