The PC Suite connectivity via an USB cable does not allow you to connect to the Internet through your PC.

Only on Eseries phones (E50, E60, E61, E62, E70) and Communicators (9300, 9300i, 9500) is there an "IP passthrough" feature for this (requires Nokia Network Bridge software on the PC).

With some older phones it is also possible to use gnubox (I don't know if it only works via Bluetooth, or also the USB cable).

For N70 the only way is with Gnubox, if You are lucky. I try, and was not able to do that.

hey guys, been so busy with other things such as work heh,

hmm i looked at that Nokia Network Bridge soft and how i understood i need a PCI card for that too. I believed that connect nokia wouldn't be so hard and i dont need to spend extra ���.

What is it when you go to: CONNECTIVITY>DEV. MGR.> and it asks you to st-up a new profile with server settings and stuff?

Thanks
