Laptop + Nokia 7650 as modem (GPRS) via bluetooth (Widcomm)

7 replies · 12,054 views · Started 09 January 2003

I have a problem setting up the Nokia 7650 as a bluetooth modem via Bluetooth.

I have the Tecom USB dongle with the Widcomm bluetooth software.
PC Suite and everything is working fine, but i cant get the phone to act as a bluetooth modem via bluetooth. When I run N7650_Modem_Setup.exe I cant choose "Bluetooth modem", just "IR modem".

Why is that?, any ideas?

thanks

I had the same problem with MSI bt, but it turned out that i didnt need to
install that N7650_Modem_Setup.exe, because the bt software's dialup
network worked fine. So no need for Nokia software.

ok, I�ve tried that. But the phone doesnt seem to trig the gprs connection. The computer just say "PPP Link terminated".

The operator (Telia) says that I should use *99# as phonenumber, but that doesnt seem to help.

I found the problem, in phone settings, u must choose a default APN for GPRS. That field was empty.

Jyrik: How did you configure your Bluetooth DUN with 7650? I can't seem to get mine to work. I using Widcomm v1.3.5 for my MSI Key. Please help. Thank you.

I just upgraded my BT SW to Tecom 1.2.216 and configured the BT DUN for GPRS use. I'm using Globe in Philippines and dial to *99***1#.

It always get stuck at "Registering your computer on the network.." and the next error that appear says "Error 734: The PPP link control protocol was terminated."

Can someone help me out? I didn't have this problem when i use my T68i. Shrugs! :cry:
