Internet via bluetooth

Hey Guys,
I'm new to the PPC,where i just bought a K-Jam and installed activesync 4.1 on my laptop (winxp sp2).
i have also a bluetooth dongle (MSI) and it seems to be working fine with me, i can connect my kjam to the laptop to syncronize my data.
now when it comes to using the internet via my laptop, i'm lost
i've been reading all threats which confused me when setting up the connection and i'm still not able to work it.
please if anyone can help me step by step , i'll be thankfull
thanx in advance.
I have noted by Bluetooth experiences with connecting my Xda Exec to my Home PC internet connection. It took me over a weeks worth of shouting & frustration to get this working as I ended up falling down every pitfall you could fall down! :evil:
Anyway, take a look here:

all you need to do is discover your device and connect to the dial-up networking connection.....
once that's done it's just a matter of getting the correct phone number, username and password (if applicable).
In the US for T-Mobile the phone number is *99# and there is no user name or password.
dear underwurld
thinks for your fast response and for trying to help, not sure if the link is working at the moment , i've tried to open it several times.
lvlolvlo,
i donot think it can be that easy, i came across alot of threats were all about the activesync and ports and network connections , what made it more complicated.
any help..?
Oops sorry about that....
Missed a bloody 't' out try again:

@lvlolvlo... DUN connection via TMobile.... erm I didn't go anywhere near that
:shock:
@freeway
i donot think it can be that easy, i came across alot of threads were all about the ActiveSync and ports and network connections , what made it more complicated.

Dear Underwurl,
i would like to thank u for these amazing information and references , however ( to tell u the truth) it is still confusing to me..
i thouhgt there might be any guidelines where i could go through steps
1-
2-
.
.
and so on...
i think i have no problem connecting my device to the laptop ( not through the dialup thing but through the activesync 4.1 and it says connected in both)
also all reference were talking about incoming ports and outgoings ones which doesnot exist in activesync4.2 ( i know it might exist on 3.8 ver)
1- if it is somehow connected to the activesync, are there anything to be configured for the proxy server , and how ( i'm using my office lan)??
2- when it says connected i try to open IE but all i get is page is under construction...what does that mean???
3- is it something related to the bluetooth (msi) driver or ghosted ports??
u c....i'm going randomly considering all these thoughts, which is confusing me alot...
will appreciate any help...
OK....
So, just to be clear:
Have you installed those nice WICOMM Bluetooth services installed on your PC?
Andy
PS
Do you have WiFi in your office???? Bin Bluetooth if you have!!!!!!!
yes, I installed the BT software that came with my BT dongle
it shows widcomm in my driver data
and no idonot have wifi in my office
what do u think?
while connected with my laptop via activesync, i checked the tcp/ip setting with pocket mechanic, it is showing a different ip address than the one in my laptop connection (LAN connection),
but showing a correct host name
and it says " Local area networks cannot directly communicate across wide area networks because they are defind by a private class of ip's"
any idea?????
when i open internet explorer on my kjam it says "page not found"
is it that difficult for you guys,
no one have gone through this before??

HSDPA VIA TYTYN FROM PC ..??

Hi,
I was just wondering how to use my tytyn phone as a high speed modem from my pc..? basically I want to be able to connect my phone to laptop and surf at High speeds when on the move... anyone know how to do this..? I though you just connect via active sync and it defaults to your phone connection.. but any help is appreciated.. thanks.. :wink:
You need to turn Bluetooth on both devices. Pair them together and have your laptop use the Dial-Up service provided by your phone. No username and password. Just dial *99#
Thanks fo your reply.. but I dont have bluetooth on laptop.. can I use usb instead..?
Ok.. I tried the following but it didnt work... ! I connected phone to laptop via USb, then started wireless modem on phone, laptop (XP) picks up new modem, created new dial up with moblie as modem and *99# as dial up number, I see connections flashing on mobile and dial up attempts to connect but fails on user/pass , I triedleaving them blank, then user/wap (im on t-mobile) none of which worked.... any help is appreciated...
I am watching this thread with interest too.
I have a Bluetooth adapter for my laptop but would like to see what the experts say on here first..
FINALLY WORKING WITH 800KBPS DOWNLOAD..!!!!!!!
I finally got it working with my t mobile vario 2 ... if you have the same then the APN is general.t-mobile.uk and uername /pass is user pass

Now im surfing the net at nearly 1mb from my car..!!!!!!!!
Awsome! Watch your driving as you're sniping that eBay item though :shock:
ive been using my hsdpa via my vario 2 over bluetooth today and its very quick, someone was saying that there speed slowed down dramatically when they used it over bluetooth but i can confirm that they were tell porkies. Ive done speed tests on many different sites today through out the day and got 1.7mb every single time.
It is just like using wifi at home on 8mb for surfing sites, obviously downloading is slower though

xv6900 no internet plan

HI, i just recently got the htc xv6900 from verizon, but i didn't get the internet plan. Is their any way for me to get internet through bluetooth or anything else? Any answer would help thanks
Anyone? plzzzzzz
Not that I know of.
you're not asking if you can be online when active syncing are you which you can. There's ways to active sync through blue tooth and I'd guess you can be online that way also but I haven't done it.
i have the sprint version (basically the exact same unit) with evdo service, but when i dont want to use it, i active sync via BT to my computer -- which has inet connection.
once the connection is established, then yes, u can get internet on the vogue. other than that, no other real way i guess...
for the activ sync could you guys tell me step by step how to do this? and my computer comes with bluetooth so i don't need a dongle right? OO and thanks for the replyes
No internet plan
You could also buy a microsd card that is a wifi adapter. Unless someone has cooked a rom that unlocks the WIFI capabilities
set the active sync to com7 and have ur BT dongle connect to ur fone.
thanks for the respons i will try it out as soon as possible
There is no wifi on the cdma vogue
Alright now i just got the usb sync with the xv6900 and i got internet. So i decided to use the bluetooth, but i was wrong: i don't have bluetooth on my desk top so i'm soon going to go to staples to buy a bluetooth adapter. I'll keep you guys updated. THANKS for all your help guys.
WOW guys!!! THanks for all of your advicess. I got the D-link Bluetooth Adapter DBT-120 for 30 bucks. And WOW it works. Not only is the internet fast, but it's free. I just plugged it in and installed in my besktop (with the given CD) and BAM it works. On the program just set it to recieve any invite. So far i've been to pocket youtube, and weather bug. Do you guys know off any good sites for games and wat not?? Thanks

Wifi Connection Problems

To all:
I have an ATT Galaxy S4. It is stock running I337UCUFN1. The problem is I can not connect to any Wifi locations that prompt for a login screen. When I first got the phone it was not a problem, but now it wont work. I can connect at home, but not at the gym or at work where I do not have access to the routers. I have called Samsung, but they want my phone for 7-10 days to fix it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you,
Jeff

Samsung S4 SCH-I595 wifi connection problem

Hi , I am new here and I have this little problem. My SCH-I545 with Android version 5.0.1 shows wifi connection to my access point ( Got IP address) All my other devices that connect to the web thru the same AP are working . When I try to connect thru WiFi, it will not reach destination, not on browser, not to GooglePlay, my location can't be established....very annoying. It started today...it was working yesterday. I reset the phone to factory default and the problem did not go away. Not sure what to check right now.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you
