I have a Motorola V505 phone linked to an IBM ThinkPad T40p using Bluetooth.
I am not using a dongle as the BT is built into the laptop. The phone and
the laptop can pair without a problem.
However, after they pair, when I open the "My Bluetooth Places" folder on
the laptop, and click on any service there (like OBEX File Transfer) I get
this error message on the laptop:

Error Establishing Connection

That's all I get before I close the BT Folder.

Can anyone help? I have had intermittent success but it doesn't last.

The laptop is running WinXP SP2
The firewall is Blackice

ANY help would be greatly appreciated

TIA

Mark

First off, it sounds like a stop over at Mauricios site is a must. excellent
site and is run by a regular in this Forum. Check out
http://www.geekzone.co.nz/ and then to his BlueTooth Forums and How to
Sections.

pairing but not connecting.
