hi is it the wavelinker if so i've got one its hard getting it working but you have to first find the ngage with the XTNDConnect Blue Manager then open up the mRouter and tick COM4 and it seems to connect after awhile

The basic idea (details depend on which/whose Bluetooth software you have on the PC):
1. Use the Bluetooth software on the PC to create a "virtual" serial port (so called "COM" port).
2. Pair the PC with the phone.
3. Configure PC Suite (mRouter/Connection Manager) to use Bluetooth and the virtual COM port you've created.
4. Launch PC Suite.
