Hello everyone

Couldn't find anything about this on any of the threads.

I've had a personal 8700g (TMO) for long time (on BIS). Used it as a tethered modem with no problems.

My work gave me an 8700c (AT&T) on a BES. So I thought I'd try to set it up as a tethered modem too.

Problem is as soon as I plug the 8700c into the comuter (with Desktop Manager running), the wireless is immediately turned off, and I cannot turn it back on until I unplug it from the USB cable. This only happens when the Desktop Manager is running.

The Desktop Manager I'm using is 4.2.2.14 that I had been using for my TMO BB.

Is this possibly a BES policy thing that is turning off the BB wireless?

Thanks in advance.
