• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

i have an HP Ombibook 6000 and i got a new cell phone a Samsung X427M and i was wondering which software would be the best to use with the Data cable i got just a little while ago:confused: i'm a total noob to laptop wireless
 
You can go to cingular.com and download connection manager then follow the instructions.
 
Tony,

Try searching this forum for "tethering". Also, since tethering on specific phones can vary, try www.howardforums.com for help as well. Connection manager may work if you use Cingular, but you don't say that you do. The howardforums site has a plethora of good information, and you'll probably find your best info there (unless someone else here has a similar Samsung as tether with the same service you use). :)
 
actually i forgot to mention i am with cingular, and i upgraded my phone, moments after posting that my other one bit the dust(my dad had it and he let me use it because he got a new one, my Nokia 6010 blew a fuze and dad let me use his, which was about a year and a half old) i had to give his phone back and get a new one, so i figured i'd try to attach his phone to my laptop and see what it would do , i guess it just wasnt the right cable, i upgraded to a camera phone a Motorolla V557, pay-day (tomorrow) i'm going to get the cable to attach this one to my laptop, so it was Connection Manager right? i'll do a search for that, thanks guys:cool:
