C550 Passthrough / phone recognition

[Guest Goose Whisperer]

I've connected a c550 (on Orange) via usb cable & am using passthrough to use broadband to access the internet instead of GPRS.

However when I visit 'Orangeworld' I'm told i'm not using an orange phone

When using GPRS the phone is recognized as an Orange phone.

Is there some way of getting the phone to be recognised when using passthrough & a broadband connection ?

I think that when you are using the passthrough connection, Orange World is recognising it as your computer (as your using the internet from there) whereas on GPRS your on your phone.
