I’m trying to setup my Samsung Omnia as a modem on my laptop using windows 7. Long story short, I installed the drivers/VZAccess Manager that came with my phone and I have nothing.

I’m not so computer savy so any help would be appreciated.

Are you paying for tethering?

If not, it will not work through VZAM.

does pdanet have a version for windows mobile? Should have got an android powered phone.

Even at that though, you should be able to open a browser window. You will just get re-directed to VZW where they will ask you ti sub

I’m a WinMo expert but not with Verizon. Everything is different for AT&T.

That was the behavior I saw when using the VZ Manager with a blackberry. You get connected, but they basically just lock you in a jail until you pay.

With AT&T you had to edit your access points…Internet sharing by default was set to use a different access point (isp.cingular) that only worked if you paid the extra fee. You had to change it to use the typical mobile internet access point. (wap.cingular)  
Not sure if that would have any relevance on VZW.

So I got this working using the WMwifirouter and IntShrUI. I pay normal data and email, $30, 450 minutes. I don’t know how long this will work for, if verizon picks up on me using this.
