May have already been answered but do I need the 15 dollar a month service to do this and what happens if I do it anyways?

W/ my pearl i get "Error 653: The modem has reported an error

[hedmisten]

Anybody done this with alltel yet. The phone is a 7130e and I have wireless connection for internet now. Any directions would be appreciated, especially for using a wireless connection(once) and Alltel. I would like to get rid of my service provider and use the blackberry as the modem.

Can i use my 8707v version 4.1 OS as a modem for my windows vista laptop?
so far i'm unable to get it done.

I can get up to step 4 but when selecting the connection in the Desktop Manager my standard modem is COM7 and the selection only goes from USB, COM3 to COM6. Is there a way to add the standard modem COM7 manually in the desktop manager?

I wonder if anyone else has this problem.
I'm using the Curve 8320 as a modem for my Vista laptop and I have to remove and replace the battery from the BB every single time I use it or the connection won't work. Sometimes I have to remove it twice to get a stable connection.

[G35Turbo]

For some reason Desktop manager is not detecting the standard modem, I tried changing the ports and it only detects the bluetooth modem and the laptop internal modem. I've tried pulling the battery out and restarting the pc. I can connect using the USB cable but would like to use no wires. I'm not sure what to do, has anyone encountered this issue xp?

Has anyone had a problem connecting to the internet with BB after using BB as a tethered modem? Do I need to switch settings back and forth?
Thanks,
