I've been trying to tether my Pearl to my Fujitsu P1510D Lifebook so that I can use it as a modem with T-Mobile. Have tried all of the suggested steps posted elsewhere on this forum but to no avail. Can anyone post a clear and concise step-by-step procedure to walk me through this? One possible "problem" is that I have two modems listed in my Device Manager, and neither is called a "Standard Modem" -- one is "Bluetooth Modem" and the other is "Agere Systems AC'97 Modem" (the latter was pre-installed). Cheers and thanks in advance to anyone who can help. (P.S. I had no problem tethering my 7105 to a Toshiba notebook previously, so don't know what the problem is now.)

Are you trying to tether thru Bluetooth or with the usb cable?
I've only done it with usb cable so can't help if you're trying to do it with Bluetooth but have read on here that others have been able to.

Am happy to use the usb cable for now, though would eventually like to be able to do it using Bluetooth as well. Can't get either to work at the moment...

Is this the same if you use a 7105t?

It does not appear to be required for tethering, but my IT support group recommends disabling the Hardware flow control (enabled by default)
under the modem properties> 'Configure' button on the first screen > uncheck all boxes
