Hi There,
Have seen alot of chat about configuring your blackberry to be used as a modem when you subscribe to a service provider.

Has any one managed to configure their laptop to use their Blackberry as a modem via their own BES Server?

I have a 7100G + BES Server 4.0 sp3.

Cheers Gekko

Yes it is possible. See the How-To thread for instruction.

Yes. My modem FAQ does explain how to connect a BlackBerry as a modem for a laptop -- however, to get the data to go through BES instead of the carrier TCP/IP.

However, if you must use MDS data instead of carrier TCP/IP, you need to use the third party Sharkmodem product at www.mobishark.com rather than the modem built into BlackBerryOS 4.x on newer devices.

Does anyone out there have any experience with the mobishark product?
