Boy-O..
Where to start...

I think there may be a handful of people who bother with win 10 here.
You'll find connecting the n900 to win xp ...even win 7 works better.
and...
what on earth are you doing with the nokia pc suite?

This is a Symbian workaround. I don't know if it will help you or not.

I don't know what seanmcken23 (any relation with seanmcken, perchance?) uses it for but I use it for updating maps. Not that there has been any update between my last two tries spaced by about 6 months.

As others said, good luck with Windows 10. I would not touch it with a red hot poker unless totally forced to (e.g. at work) but IIRC, Windows 8 had a compatibility mode that allowed to pretend for specified applications that they were running on an earlier version of Windows. Perhaps Windows 10 has that too? Worth a try...

Hmm. Step 1, "install latest Nokia Suite". Wrong already. The newest Nokia Suite that worked for me was 3.8. That was about 1½-2 years ago when the latest was 10.something. I have no idea what the latest is now.

I think the title of your thread is the thing man...
your n900 serious problem is that you are using it in conjunction with windows 10..
which IS a serious problem
actually...
I'm having a hard time being serious about this serious problem....

just grab deb or buntu cram it on a usb flash drive...
stick it up the arse of that win 10 ..
restart your computer...
boot into linux...
connect your n900...
serious problem solved ...

it won't impact your win 10...
or touch your computer in any way....
and you'll have the convenience of an easier solution whenever you need it.

Configure the phone to use usb lan.
Connect the phone with usb pc suite mode.
Get kernel power and iptables for the N900.
Activate forwarding and make your iptable rules. Alternatively use genwall.

If you have driver issues with win10 and getting a serial port or what ever instead of a rndis (network device) you need to tweak.

Here something that could be a great help:

First, some more insight: The Linux rndis gadget function has USB class of 2 and subclass of 2, which matches "USB\Class_02&SubClass_02" in the usbser.inf file. This is why for some people, their device is initially detected as a COM port instead of RNDIS.

Solution 1: If you are one of the people that found this because your device is showing up as a COM port instead of RNDIS, you may be able to get away using the RNDIS 5.1 driver. Find your device under Ports (COM & LTP) in Device Manager. Right-click it and select Update Driver Software..., then Browse my computer for driver software and then Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer and finally choose Remote NDIS Compatible Device. This should install the Microsoft RNDIS 5.1 driver (shows "Acer" as the manufacturer). If this works great. If it causes Network and Settings and other network related things to lock up, then you need the RNDIS 6.0 driver instead. Try one of the other solutions.

Solution 2: If you have control over the RNDIS device and it runs Linux (i.e. BeagleBone), you can tweak the driver to get along with Windows better. For example, if you have a 3.16 kernel or newer, you can setup your gadget using configfs and include os descriptors. This is actually what I ended up doing for my case. You can find my fully documented script here. The key was specifying the compatible and subcompatible ids so that it matches "USB\MS_COMP_RNDIS&MS_SUBCOMP_5162001" in rndiscmp.inf. This causes the Microsoft RNDIS 6.0 driver to be installed for this device. With this driver, I have not seen the same lockup as I have with the 5.1 (Acer) driver. I also changed the vendor and product ids so that it wouldn't match the "Acer" driver.

Solution 3: If the RNDIS 5.1 (Acer) driver is causing problems and you can't modify the remote device, then you can reboot into a mode that allows you to install unsigned drivers. The you can install this unsigned linux.inf file. However, if you reboot without enabling unsigned drivers again, Windows will not load the driver anymore. For a more permanent solution, you could self-sign that .inf file.

Solution 4: This one is for Microsoft (and better than the suggestion below)... Add "USB\Class_02&SubClass_02&Prot_FF" to rndiscmp.inf.

ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

Here is the workaround that I came up with for my particular case. Assuming your device has the same USB Vendor and Product ID's it should work for you. If not, you can modify the .inf file (see link) accordingly.

http://www.ev3dev.org/docs/tutorials/connecting-to-the-internet-via-usb/?os=Windows&os-version=10

It would be really nice if Microsoft could make it so that rndiscmp.inf shows up as compatible with USB\VID_0525&PID_a4a2.

Good luck and have fun, maybe think about another os?
