bluetooth link ?

[joshyb]

hello all

i just wondered if anyone has experience sharing a internet connection via bluetooth . i know this isn't wifi but bluetooth is a networking technology. i'm pretty sure you can do it between pc's but can you share it to a mobile phone such as a k750i? do you need to run some sort of gprs translator for it to be in a correct format for the phone to read?

anyone who has experiance setting up this kind of internet sharing your thoughts and advice would be appreciated

Usually the Mobile phones show up as a modem on the computer,
and then you can dial a no typically some thing like *123# or what ever your service provide gives you.
Once your cell phone is connected you can start browsing..

strangly i'm looking to go the other way , ie share my pcs internet connection to my phone , but thanks for the comment , yeah i want to surf the web on my phone via my internet connection ...

Dont think that can be done. But then again it aint impossible..

Did you try bridging the Bluetooth and the LAN connections together?
and then use a browser and point


Found something on Ggl.
