Im trying to connect my xda2 to the active sync program on my pc using bluetooth rather that putting it in the cradle, i want to view web pages using my pcs internet connection on my xda2, so i can take it about the house, i can do it when its in its cradle, but did't manage to go very far with it lol, and i did manage to do it using bluetooth once, but cannot seem tog get it working again, does anyone know what you have to do to make this work,
thanks

If I buy a bluetooth USB adapter for my PC, can I then share and transfer files between my XDA2 and my PC? If so, are there any particular specs I should look for in an adapter? Also, would this then be able to allow my XDA2 to use my PC's internet connection (ADSL)?

yes using activesync just like when you connect using the cattle / usb
if the bluetooth usb follow the std of bluetooth then it should act the same no matter which adaptor you get
special settings

Hi,
The only setting you need to do is on PC ActiveSync. Go to Options > Rules > Pass Through (at the bottom of the page) and choose The Internet.
That's it. Once your PC is connected to the Internet, you XDA with Bluetooth ActiveSync can also enjoy the Pass Through Internet.
Cheers
joparp i did the same thing and it is not working!!!
Hi i have an XDA 2 and a MSI bluetooth USB adapter (the range of the adapter doesn't matter as far as i can tell because its the XDA 2's 10m range thats the limit). The XDA 2 connects through to the PC using active sync. Active sync doesn't have bluetooth support but this is ok because it can connect to serial (com ports). PC Bluetooth can create virtual com ports to connect to so just make sure that your PC active sync is set to your virtual com port. Then all you have to do is click on tools (in active sync on XDA 2) and select connect via bluetooth. Works great! free FAST internet when in range of the pc (10m open air) and if i can get it working with bluetooth, accessing the lan using Pocket Lan (if anyone knows how i'd love to know! ). hmmmm access to mp3's on pc network
Has anyone succeeded yet, I've got a belkin bt card F8T002 and xp, I can get the devices to bond but that's it, no sync. When I try from xda2 i get some message saying the port may be in use. Also the belkin info says I should be able to see several icons from My Bluetooth Places, I've got nothing, and after I set up the configuration, the information doesn't seem to be saved, when I re-enter the configuration I have to put it all in again.
It's a bit of a bugger really
Hy!
I've an xdaII.
I've the same problem with the USB Dongle's 3Com : 3CREB96B (on my PC).
Activesync doesn't initialisate, but i can send and received files by transfer without activesync.
I borrowed a Blue Tooth dongle from a friend at work. I got the ActiveSync running fine after a bit of messing about. It worked fine both for browsing and syncing with outlook
I only got it to work by selecting 'Connect via Bluetooth'. As this was some days ago and I've not yet had the chance to borrow the BT dongle again I'm not quite sure what I did.
However IMHO Bluetooth is one of the worst connection systems I've had to work with in a very long time .... Last time it was this bad was when you had to use a third party TCP/IP stack with Windows 3.1
Bluetooth Sync
unpair your XDA II and your PC. Then modify the below registry and pair again. After Pairing, run your Activesync in your XDA II and click Connect via Bluetooth in the tools
\HLKM\SOFT\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Activesync

I use BlueSoleil on my desktop and I can sync my XDA mini perfectly ... it took a bit of fiddling with the settings on both my PC And my XDA, but it's worth it.
