Hello again to all Esato and SE fanatics. I have an acer laptop. And i'm in our field office now. Since there was no wifi or any internet connection here, i'm trying to find a way to use my w660i. But for almost overnight trying to establish a connection, i failed.  is there any ways to do the connection or is it possible to do it? Thanks in advance.

How to get you online using your phone as a modem
(Tested on G502 - K530i - K610i - K800i - K810i - W610i - W660i - W880i - W910i)
First step, enable/activate your gprs data connection (you may have to contact your service provider to get it work)
To test if your gprs is active , go click your PlayNow in the menu (keypad '1'). If it succeed to open the PlayNow page then you are just a few steps away.
Second step, go to Settings>Connectivity>USB>USB Internet> and choose turn on
Don't forget to choose the right account at USB data account.
Third step, download W660i signed driver and extract it anywhere as long as you'll find it quick and easy.
Now, when you connect your phone to the pc (use dcu-60 or dcu-65 only), your pc will pop the hardware wizard or something like that. Just point everything it asked to the extracted signed driver files folder.
Once finish, everytime you connect your phone to your pc/laptop you should see theglobe icon on your phone status bar. It means you are automaticly connected to the web.
I.m.o. You should turn off every automatic updates in your computer to avoid downloading unnecessary big files
Regards

No, you cannot. You can use Opera 9.5 which you can download from www.opera.com.

There is a way by configuring the network proxy settings of Opera 9.5. I was able to do that before in IE but I haven't tested it again.

ok thanks. im still in our field office. and i lost 300 buck browsing thru my phone-laptop.
what i did is plug out my phone fm the laptop and browse thru opera mini 2.06 and 4.2.
i just call my girl and load me all txt 20 and i can browse the net for free using OM. hehe.
by the way, is this a bug on smart isp or is it just for free (naawa sila sa smart users?).

I don't know if it is a bug. Kasi ngayon eh free ang internet browsing using socket connection and not http. I'm not sure if smart is aware of that. Possible they did something with their network kaya nagkaganon. Or possible na hindi alam ng smart na pwede pala maaccess ang internet sa network nila using socket kasi by default, http talaga ang connection sa smart.

huh. are you sure? im still using http connection. im browsing right now and my only load is all txt 20 (loaded by my girl last night) with nothing at all just the 95 msgs available.
i cant connect usingh socket connection.
according to them (smart) its free browsing in their site. and if you browse outside their network, network charge may apply. i guess there is where the glitches starts. or baka naman galit lang talaga mga technicians(IT dept nila) sa smart management. what do you think? he he he he
anyways, sana habang naka smart pa ako ganun pa rin sa smart.

@iamsinned06: Mejo hindi ko ata nagets ung iba mong sinabi ah, hehehe! Ganito yan. Sa Opera Mini 4.2, free ang browsing using Smart network if Socket connection gagamitin mo. Pag default browser ng phone mo ang gagamitin mo eh free lang ang browsing within sa Smart sites lang, outside nun eh may charge na. Bug sa network nila na nag-aallow sila ng free connection using socket protocol. Hindi nila siguro alam na may mga web browse apps na may option ichange kung anong protocol ang pwedeng gamitin like Opera Mini.
