How to connect PC's internet from a smartphone via ActiveSync?

[Guest obladi]

I am using Windows Mobile 5.0 based smartphone, in particular Cingular HTC 2125. It was possible to access PC's internet from the smartphone via ActiveSync, but I can't do it now after upgrading OS and ActiveSync. How can I do this?

My PC is Windows XP and Active Sync is 4.5

Check in Activesyncs options that passthrough internet access is enabled.

Is that option also available for Active Sync 4.5 ?

I think I had such option for an older version, but can't find it now.

Do I have to lower the version?

Hmm no you shouldnt have too. I've just looked myself and can't see the option! I've attached my connection settings, you're should be fairly similar (although i'm not sure if these will affect passthrough settings)

Thanks for the screen shot. My seeting is exactly same as yours, but still doesn't work.

What about the smartphone side? My smartphone is Cingular 2125 and Windows Mobile 5.0.

Anything to work on the smartphone? Setting?

Are you getting any error in particular on your smartphone when you go to the internet? I had trouble with my blackjack before but this site helped me fix it: http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/activesync/tshoot-as4x.htm

The LSPValue.reg registry file, I downloaded and ran on my computer then magically everything started working.

wat?? it didnt work for me. ok so here's whats happening for me.

a few days ago i tried to go into opera using activesync internet connection and it says "Error. Could not establish network connection. Please check your connection settings" so i removed outlook to see if that solved it, but it didnt. then i downloaded that registry file and ran it but it's still not working. my active sync settings look just like what monolithix has shown but i dont have COM3 i have DMA. but i dont have "allow network settings to one of the following:" checked

any suggestions?

o and also, this was either after i uninstalled outlook or ran the reg file...

my active sync icon has a red exclamation mark on it when my device is connected. when i click view status it says: "Active sync encountered a problem on the desktop. Support Code: 85010014

What version of Activesync are you using? I use 4.2, I had troubles with 4.5 at first.
