Sorry you had such a lot downside since I followed the directions and it worked very well. instead of say "one of the steps" be alittle additional specific re the detailed directions Step XXX. Note my comment additionally in glossing over one amongst the steps and then update your post if still having issues. I even have been using my excess Blackberry Gb no downside however beware the overseas tether. I simply got burned with $100 once I thought i used to be connected to free WiFi in Malaysia. Disconnect the phone when signing in to overseas WiFI to avoid any problems.

The step I described is choose click on interface as RIM Composite Device and leave service name as RIM Composite Device,Create". I don't have "RIM Composite Device" as an possibility on the dropdown - only my BlackBerry - it says "BlackBerry [MY PIN]".
