"netsh routing" command unavailable in Vista
Hello everyone,
On my Laptop I was connected to the Internet using a Bluetooth connection to another machine running XP. It used NAT, configured and installed using the "netsh routing" commands.
* netsh routing ip nat install
* netsh routing ip nat add interface “Local Area Connection” full
* netsh routing ip nat add interface “Bluetooth Network Connection” private
However the desktop machine has been upgraded to Vista and the "routing" command seems unavailable. The error says that it's unable to find the "routing" command.
Have they removed or disabled this feature in Vista?
I established the Bluetooth connection but can't browse the Internet on my Laptop.
Any ideas?

I'm confused orc, how would this resource help me?
I don't use WLAN but Bluetooth (PAN - Personal Area Network).

It doesn't appear to be there in Vista. Type "netsh /?" for a list of all available commands, maybe you'll recognise something there that is a substitute (I don't know enough about that kind of networking to know).

Does your Bluetooth get an IP address?
If so you can use the route add command.

ua549,
Well, I can setup any IP address for the Bluetooth connection
My desktop has 192.168.0.115 with the Gateway 192.168.0.1.
What IP and Gateway should I use for my Bluetooth connection
and what route should I add?
Could you show me one example please.

You will need to setup a route from the Bluetooth device to wherever it connects on its way to the normal gateway.
The route command has some examples.
Open a CMD window and enter route for the help screen.
Enter route print to see the existing routes.

Can you explain this more detailed?
I know how to add routes, but have no idea what IP and Mask I should use. Should I add this route on my Laptop or on my Desktop? Is there any tutorial for this?

I'll move this thread over to the Networking forum, hopefully the network gurus can give you detailed instructions

The route command does essentially the same thing as the netsh routing commands do. Set it up the same way.
My experience is limited to point-to-point Bluetooth bonding of devices such
as a cell phone to a notebook where notebook software routes the traffic to the private network and the cell phone routes the traffic to the internet.
Have you tried bonding the notebook to your desktop?

The "netsh routing" command is unavailable in Vista, that's the problem.
I can access my Desktop from my Laptop. However I'm unable to browse the Internet. It worked fine with XP, but doesn't work with Vista anymore.

On the desktop you need to route the traffic from the notebook that is not staying on your private network to the gateway. Likewise internet traffic arriving at the desktop destined for the notebook need a route to get there.
Do it with the route add command on the desktop.
Post all the commands you used in the netsh routing context.
Many of the networking features were moved to the RRAS MMC.

Hi, from another forum this guy says it works I haven't tried it :-
I got IPMONTR.DLL IPPROMON.DLL from 2003 , it is ok if you got these files from XP.
copy to Vista WINDOWS\SYSTEM32
and run
netsh add helper ipmontr.dll
netsh add helper ippromon.dll
now you can configure Vista routing and remote access.
