I already managed to set up my Blackstone to activesync over bluetooth, but I'm struggling to enable it it connect to the internet via bluetooth thru my PC which is connected by cable.
Anyone knows a decent enough guide that could get me through the process? Or could outline to process for me in short. (Windows XP on desktop)

Hi all,
I am trying to connect to the internet via passthrough
on Active sync (version 3.7.1) while my XDA2 is still in the cradle
to my pc (with an internet connection)
After several attempts I read the HELP file in active sync and it states:
Note The ability to use ActiveSync to pass through this computer is only supported on Windows Powered Pocket PC 2002 and Windows Powered Smartphone 2002.
I am on PocketPC 2003.
Anyone knows of any freeware that can do a passthrough while
still on the cradle (on PPC2003).
Thanks
you may be referring to a very old article.
I can do Internet passthrough with my QTEK2020 PPC 2003 while plugged into the craddle, and without any additional software, just ActiveSync.
yeah i've don passthrough on my xda2 with both usb and bluetooth
Hi!
How is this done? I saw instructions on a link and they seemed so complicated. Any "Passthrough for Dummies" info?
Thanks
This link may help. Go to the internet connection link and it will tell you what to set up in active sync and on the ppc. I did this and can now get my emails through my pc connection instead of gprs

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
Are you using the bluetooth drivers in XP SP2? on your pc
im running windows 98se
Active Sync 3.7
WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software
How do I achieve the above?
Win xp pro
pocket pc 2003 (XDA11i)
I can connect and get onto the internet but I need to be on the network with the pc. I am trying to test some apps running locally on IIS5. On the PC I type Http://dad/finedll/Mysql_3.dll how do I do this when connected via bluetooth.
Cheers

Go to ActiveSync Connection manager. Lowest option is something like "Allow ethernet and RAS connection with this desktop". Put a check into the checkbox and you should be set.

Yes. You can either get a wireless lan SD-Card for your mini and hook into your WLAN if you have one or you get a Bluetooth dongle for your machine you are running ActiveSync on. Then setup ActiveSync and your mini to use Bluetooth as syncing connection and all will be working fine.
that there dongle..
mate thanks for your response, i have the blue tooth dongle and although it does let me conenct to my PC - it wont to the internet via my adsl until i hook up the usb cable. is there a specific bluetooth or internet setting?
regards

excuse me, which version of ActiveSync has these settings?
versions
on the PC its 4.1 on the xda mini its whatever it comes with, why?
juan
active sync
what happens is that if i try to connect them with active sync and no usb cable (but the blue tooth dongle in my pc) it just searches comports and usb...and i get now where.

ActiveSync has no bluetooth out of the box. You have to use your Bluetooth driver software to map a virtual serial port to the bluetooth device. When this option is enabled you have to do the pairing of magician and PC again, and you need to setup the magician to use the virtual serial port as well. When both devices are set up correctly the magician talking bluetooth will appear to the PC as a device on some virtual COM port such as COM 5 or whatever. Then you can setup ActiveSync to use COM5 for serial connection (although it is bluetooth) and all is fine.
How to exactly set up the virtual com on your PC differs from BT driver to BT driver. Maybe someone can give exact step-by-step directions, it was a long fiddle for me as well...
Hi All,
I'm sure this has been discussed 50 million times, but I can't find a good lead. I'm trying to sync my wizard to windows vista via bluetooth (it works via usb). I'm running WM6 (a cooked ROM of course), and my computer has all the necessary components for synching. The Windows Mobile Device Center is set to allow incoming bluetooth connections and the phone and computer can see each other. However, Windows Mobile Device Center (wow, it needs a better name) keeps saying not connected. Any ideas? Thank you!
same problem here
I am also struggling to connect/sync in Vista via Bluetooth dongle. I have defined I/O ports but my PPC disconnects as soon as connects/finds the designated port.
any help or comment would be appreciated.
cheers!

Since everything is in order, it's worth a try to disable your firewall.
In most cases that solves any probems.
Windows ActivSync is a little troublesome that way.
