Setting Up an Internet Connection With Your Computer

You can set up Internet Sharing in one of two ways:

⬤Connect your Treo Pro smartphone to your computer using the USB cable.

⬤If your computer is enabled with Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can set up your Treo Pro smartphone as a wireless modem using the built-in Bluetooth technology.

Note

While your mobile broadband data connection is active, you can receive incoming calls and place outgoing calls; however, doing either of these suspends the data connection until you hang up the call.

Sprint data services are available on the Sprint National Network; mobile broadband (EVDO) services work anywhere on the Sprint National Network, but broadband-like download speeds are available only in areas covered by the mobile broadband network. For information about mobile broadband services in your area, contact Sprint.

To set up USB Internet Sharing:

1.Connect your Treo Pro smartphone to your computer, using the USB cable.

2.Make sure that the phone on your Treo Pro smartphone is turned on (see “Turning Your Phone On and Off” on page 34) and that one of the data services icons ( or ) appears at the top of the screen. (If you don’t see either of these icons, then you cannot use your smartphone as a modem.)

3.Go to your Today screen.

4.Select Start > Programs > Internet Sharing.
