How do I use my BlackBerry to tether internet service for my laptop? I did the downloads and used the wizards to set it up with my BB and laptop but I still can't get the internet that way. I keep getting error msgs, so the dial-up doesn't connect.

Does anyone have any successful experience with this?

The reason that I want to do this is when I travel to MIL's house next year I want to have internet access. She doesn't have internet at her house. I can use my BB for myself but I want to show her things on the internet. The BB screen is too small for her to view comfortably. So I was thinking of taking my HP laptop with me.

I have Windows XP on the laptop. My BB is a Curve with 4.2.2 OS. My service is T-Mobile.

Any tips?
