Topic: post up your mobile phone scores...

[tdawnaz]

so i got a new phone and a new plan cuz qwest is dropping their cell service completely...so i thought i'd check my scores...

[justinlay]

Did you test your speed on your phone or tether it to a pc?

[tdawnaz]

huh?? that is my phone...didn't know that you could tether?? it to a pc...if a person has a pc would they do that?? and why?

i'm confused

[justinlay]

I tether my htc touch to my laptop if i want internet access. I only do it if i don't have internet access anywhere

[tdawnaz]

ahhhh...i didn't know that u could do that...that would be cool for traveling

 It can be done via blutooth as well, I'll connect mine and do a test now that we have a thread for it Cool  !

This is the bluetooth connection (DUN) Not bad , I'm used to a little more lol, but hey, I could deal with this if I had to

  Duh me :/  

 What do you set that up as in the phone, Iv'e only used mine as blue tooth, never tethered. We have almost the same device, mines flashed with the latest mighty rom, and all the SPB cabs, but the connections should still go the same. If you have time to fill me in.

[justinlay]

Im with verizon and i use there software. When I installed the software it gave the option to use bluetooth or cable. I have mine setup to use the cable. The steps to enable the tethering i haft to turn off the cellular radio under comm manager. Then go to start> programs and you will see modem link icon. Go there and under pc connection it gives you the option to use bluetooth or usb. You would use usb, and under menu you click start to enable the modem. Then i go back to the software i have on my pc and click connect and thats it im online.

 I see. Too bad mines nothing like that anymore    Have you used any other rom's on there ?  There's a lot out there, and they have much more features then the carrier rom's.

 I'll mess with it when i have time, but thanks
