Hi All,
When I connect via BT with Activesync. When I set passtrough on activesync I should be able to surf using the PC's BroadBand connection I understand. My question is, will all other internet related traffic be send with the BT connection ? ie, will MSN Messenger and things like PocketIRC be able to connect via BT also ?
Thanks,
Rob.
as far as i know it should be possible just like you should be able to brows the LAN network the pc with activsync is connected to
if my PC are conected to the internet and i want to connect my xda II via bluetooth, can i use the current internet used by PC? how
WWW thru bluetooth
Yes, Bond your XDA to the PC and connect via activesync. Once connected, open the internet browser on the XDA and you can surf the net. :lol:
How bout without using activesync, cuz i want to connect to internet via bluetooth secretly without knowing the person using the pc.

Network via bluetooth
Hi,
I am also trying the same thing. (Connecting without activesync)
Maybe you have to set up a network on bluetooth.
I would also like to print thru blutooth on the XDA2, so it uses the PC's printer on the network.
I am sure it can be done... not sure how :roll:
I am using XDAII Mini (i-Mate Jam) and trying to figure out how to browse the internet using my Apple Powerbook's active Wi-Fi connection.
The only way I can communicate with my Powerbook is using bluetooth. But as you know, the XDAII Mini's bluetooth software does not allow you to activesync with bluetooth nor allows you to create a network connection with bluetooth. And the later function is very necessary to successfully connect to my Powerbook.
In the new PDAs using Pocket PC 2003 you can find a very good bluetooth software (originally iincluded) which allows you to do the above.
I'm still trying to solve this problem and need any inputs.
Thank you in advance.
Cheers.
Hello,
With ActiveSync, it does let you to connect and synchronze and get an internet connection. Unfortunately that depends from the software you're using the sync.
Usually we have an icon where you can specify if to enable 'Pass-Thru' when the PDA is connected to 'Work' or 'Internet'

So I bought myself a WiFi dongle (802.11g) so that I could surf the net/pick up emails on my XDA by using a WiFi link to my laptop which is connected to the internet via ADSL. The laptop recognises the WiFi dongle but I can't get a connection between the laptop and the XDA. Both are in open mode with no security (i'll get the system working and then add security). The XDA can find the signal, says it is conencted, and then drops it again. I know it's not a range/power issue as they are right beside each other! Can anyone offer me advice on how to get the two devices talking please?
If you want internet on your XDA then just setup Active Sync via Bluetooth or Wifi. (AS 3.x)

Well I'm slightly further on than I was earlier - I have now managed to 'connect' to my laptop but I still cant 'see' the internet through the XDA. I can surf using bluetooth over Active synh but the range is too small so I want to use WiFi. I've run the internet sharing wizard but still no joy - what do I have to do?
Hi guys, currently only able to have one on at the time using the usb connection...anyway to have both using USB connection?? The only work around I can think of now is to have active sync thru USB and using wifi router for laptop...or USB for internet connection and bluetooth for active sync (mymobiler)...
anybody can help??
Can you be more precise? Are you trying to share the laptop's internet for the HD2, or the opposite?
If you're using your HD2 as a modem to access the net with your laptop then no, there's no other solution.
