iPAQ/Nokia 6310i internet connection but no websites avail..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi all,

I have made a succesful dial-up connection to my provider from my iPAQ to my
Nokia 6310i via bluetooth.
In the top of my iPAQ screen I got the two arrows (without the x) confirming
the connection.

However, when I start Internet Explorer on my iPAQ I get "The page you are
looking for cannot be found" for ANY website (I tried www.pocketpc.com for
instance).

Any ideas how to solve this?

Tried it.
Didn't help, exactly the same error.

Tnx for the quick response though.

Yes I can! Thanks for the util and the tip. Ping works fine!
So I do have a connection. So..... any ideas in the next step of the
analysis? I am lost.

Only strange thing I discovered is that in my connections I saw that my iPAQ
is connected via bluetooth with a "Bluetooth Dialup modem" where one of the
other options is "Bluetooth" (and Generic IrDA - didnt work so far). But
when I select "bluetooth" instead of "bluetooth dialup modem" I get the
error message "There is no Bluetooth hadrware installed on this device".
That does not seem logical while I CAN ping via bluetooth..... Maybe this
helps analysing the problem??
