Dude its really simple on Windows 7 first pair up your phone via Bluetooth once that is paired... Click Start then Devices and Printers your N900 will be there right click your N900 select networking from there you can dial onto the internet... i manged to achieve speeds of 997kilbits per second in my car Dude... BroadBand on the move its awesome ENJOY

I had the laptop connected to the net via wired ethernet, and enabled the wireless connection in connection sharing mode. Unfortunately I don't remember what option that was in the GUI. I do remember when selected it automatically provided IP forwarding, NAT and local DHCP/DNS.
After that I saw the laptop wi-fi on the N900's list of connections, picked it, and the N900 had net access via the laptop. Nothing more to it. I was impressed that it was built in to Ubuntu and didn't need me to fiddle around, and that it just worked.
