Thanks for all the feedback. I'll try to answer all the questions
that have been listed.
1. I have the Modem Link application & not Internet Sharing so I think
the conclusion is that I don't have AKU3 installed. But to the best
of my knowledge this is the latest download from HTC for this phone:
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/Software+Upgrade http://www.htcwiki.com/page/Use+My+2125+as+a+Modem
2. The exact process I try to follow to get connected & the error I
get is:
- Start the Modem Link application on my phone , using USB connection.
- Physically connect the phone to my Vista notebook via USB cable.
- Notebook recognizes that the phone is connected and enables the
modem.
- Modem is listed as HTC USB Modem in Device Manager.
- When I go to the Network Connections screen I can see that the
device is listed in the dial-up section.
- I double-click the modem & it appears to start by showing a window
displaying: Modems connecting.
- However this eventually times-out & returns: Error 638. The remote
server is not responding in a timely fashion.
- Here are the contents of the Modem Log:
