Hi,

I'm having a weird issue with tethering my phone. I'm using Bluetooth and I go into Sys Prefs > Network > Bluetooth DUN and choose Connect. No problems. However, sometimes when I disconnect (maybe 1 in 5 times) it'll hang on "Disconnecting" and won't let me reconnect until I reboot (the phone itself reports that it's no longer connected).

This would happen on 10.5 and still happens now on 10.6 (clean install). It happened with my old GSM phone and still happens with my current WCDMA one. I've switched phone carriers too.

Does anyone have any idea why this problem happens?
