So far so good - I can now get a connection.
However it fail's with an incorrect 'host server' message.
Do you know what I should change the host server to? I am on cable which
gives me a new IP address each time I switch my pc on?
Thanks for your help.

Please don't top post. I've fixed the quoting in this message.

Actually the IP address from cable is irrelevant. The BlueTooth
connection sets up a *different* IP network and the PC would be
assigned a different IP address there than via the cable modem.
