Does your wireless network connect directly to the internet, or do you only have a connection via the PC?

If your wireless router connects then you don't need the PC - just connect to the WiFi and surf away!

If you're asking "can I use WiFi whilst connected via USB?" then I think the answer is yes - there's a setting in ActiveSync which allows connections whilst "tethered" (but I'm not sure if that just relates to GSM connections)

hi sorry what i was trying to say weather it was possible to make my tytn II act like a modem, connect to my pc via usb. and to a wirless router via wifi.

basically the pc would not be connected to any network at all,

i want for the tytn II to give the pc an internet connection, through usb,

but not through data connection on the tytn II but a wifi connection.

hope that makes sence.

TYTN II > connected to wifi network > TYTN II connected to PC via USB> PC has Internet connection throught TYTN II.

Yes.

You can use wifimrouter if you can find it (it seems to have disappeared) or you can do some reg tweaks so that the ICS (internet connection sharing) shares the wifi instead of the 3g data connection. Do a google for ICS wifi registry tweaks.

(It is a lot easier to buy a £15 wifi USB adapter for your desktop though.)
