I am just wondering...is it possible to connect the X5 to the internet through the usb port?

Yes, if it's connected via ActiveSync. Just make sure "passthrough" is enabled by going to Tools - Options - Rules tab, and checking that the bottom drop down menu (where is says "Pass Through") is set for "Internet".

For some reason reinstalling ActiveSync made it work. Wierd.
