1. setup paired connection between pc and k800
2. go into network settings on pc and enable "bluetooth Network" (using the Bluetooth LAN Access Server Driver)
3. Bridge the local area network and the Bluetooth Network
4. In bluetooth settings go into properties of the K800 and tick "Network Access" (authorisation tab)
5. On the K800, in bluetooth settings/my devices, select the computer and "allways Allow".
6. then go into bluetooth settings on pc and attempt to start the PAN Network Access Point (this didn't work - it just kept trying to connect on the phone but wouldn't) - even though it doesn't work, it creates a data account with the name of your PC in the Data Account settings on the K800. Disconnect the PAN Network Access Point service
7. On the phone, go into internet profiles and create a new profile, using the new data account (the one with your computer's name on it). Set this profile as the default profile.
8. On the phone, go into the browser, the phone will auto connect to the computer and you will be browsing the Internet using the computer!

If you have a manual IP setup on your internet connection on the PC, this may not work. But if you get DHCP off your broadband router this should work for you too. (note this method works WITHOUT having to share your internet connection - that's why the two networks are bridged)

Method doesn't like to work in Vista.

It wont let me bridge my bluetooth adaptor with my Wireless since bluetooth isn't a "high speed network"

Hmm, that's a bugger. If you can't bridge, try sharing the internet?

Vista decided to not work and not let me share lol. <3 vista

2nd real trouble with vista. first was BSOD (accidentally installed XP Zone Alarm, whoops lol - fixed )

Do internet charges apply to the phone, or the computer though? Like, will Cingular bill me for using their internet, or will my ISP on my computer bill me?

@ max_wedge

Any similar WORKING method available for K750???

Not similiar, but there is a working methodL

@Wally_dog, when you use the bluetooth data acount, you are not using your carrier's network, so therefore there is no charge. The data traffic comes out of your computer internet provider plan.

Hi Max!

Good to see you around here too
=]

Nice topic! Good to see you sharing these knowledge with se-nse guyz to!




People, don't forget that this will only work with the Widcomm stack!!

follow the "how to" here http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=342643 to get your BT adapter working with Widcomm Stack.
Be sure not to get any newer version than 5.1.1700... this version didn't worked for me
I'm using the 5.0.1.801... the patch works with this version too...
just follow the guide.

My adapter has Belkin Software and it works fine. Maybe the belkin software is just a branded version of widcomm? I tried downloading widcomm but the links are dead. My belkin software doesn't allow to permanently allow connections to devices within PAN connections - so every time I use the PAN from my phone after logging into the system I have to re-authorise. It then okay until I log out.

Which version is your Belkin (Widcomm) software?

ooh i cant see it, its too small font size, please write in more larger font size

Is the bluetooth device my phone or a type of bluetooth "modem" that send the signal? Because I tried to install a Bluetooth softqare and it said I needed to plug in my bluetooth device... so I plugged in my phone with Bluetooth on and it didn't work >.<

i did as you provided the steps but when trying to browse on mobile am getting this error "Connection failure,check settings.if problem persists please contact your operator for support"...please help...

when i get my next phone(m600i or w950i) and set up my pan running off of my router through a usb bluetooth dongle ill write a guide and post it up here. reason im not going to post it yet is i dont actually have a phone to test its usage, theoretically i think i can get it to work but im pretty sure my k610 doesnt support pan. =[

it's just an asus wl500gp running a custom build of dd-wrt i made with bluetooth kernel modules, bluez and usb kernel modules also etc etc. along with a bunch of scripts. to get it going...should get phone in a week or so, a few weeks after that guide will prob be here ...if i dont run into any problems(unlikely)

at least this way u dont need ur computer on .

edit: on second thought does the k610 support pan

whenever i bridge the bluetooth network and the wireless network connection, the wireless connection always disconnects but whenever i get rid of the bridge it connects again. Help?

Is it works on W550?

How do you do this on a K850i?

Is it possible on a K610 ?

does anyone know how to do it for mac computers and a k810i?

Hi!

I have succesfully connected to internet via pan networking, via the computers bluetooth in vista, Using Widcomm software by the way, not vista's bluetooth stack. My question is: I can't get the streaming work.. I have selected the computer in the streaming connection prop. but no luck. It try's to connect to the mediaserver, for a long while, but after... not successfully.. What is i doing wrong? Is there more settings to set?


Thanks in advance...


Phone spec : K550i @ W610i

awesome trick man wanted to do this for a long time luv ya!!

dude can it work for W810i...bcoz W810i supports PAN..

still aint working for earlier mentioned how to do internet sharing...???

This trick did not work for me, and I was trying this already before finding this thread.

but this thread allowed me to clarify that it wont work with my BT stack, it is: a Billionton bluetooth device and stack, and looks like it is not a widcomm compliant softwtare

anyone knows if widcomm would work with my adapter and where to get the proper version (5.0) ?

any link ?

found it and uploaded it here:

http://sysbabe.flashdance.cx/~yurais/Widcomm_V5.0.1.801.rar

not work for me.I use bluesoleil 5 and k800@k810...what wrong?

any help here?

I think that it works because i can use PAN with my bluetooth stick. But the Problem is that my phone doesn't have PAN!!(W800i). I have searched for other ways many times but i couldn't find them..

has anyone found a way fpr macs? (osx tiger)

Can this work with my W950i and dial-up internet?

so does this work with a w550/w800/w810 ???
the sdk method works in my w550 but not able to get this method
has anyone else got it

what are the speed limitations? I dont have wi-fi, so I may resort to using this on my n95-8gb...

LOL Just my thoughts

Is there ay tutorial for this for linux?

Hi everyone, where can I find the Bluetooth LAN Access Server Driver? On the web I cannot find anything..today google isn't my fiend.
Can anyine give me a link or upload it somewhere?thanks.

Is this possible for w7000i ?

If Yes, then plz mention the way in detail to do it.

Hey folks! Any chance of making this trick work using the USB cable instead of Bluetooth adapter?

Just asking since when I connect my K550i [> W610i thanks to se-nse :-D] to my PC, I see a disconnected LAN connection.

So going by your bridging technique, would it be possible to bridge the two LAN's? my Internet LAN to my K550 USB Ethernet Emulation??

Wow! wouldn't this trick, if it were to work, tick all cell providers off!
It would be like, Buy a SE phone and visit this post to find out how to browse internet on ur SE phone using ur computer's net connection!!

I'll try this myself in a few days and post back with results!

I achieved this with my W580I (unbranded). You don't need to bring the connections if you're using Widcomm 5. All you need to do is go to connections and set up Internet connection sharing using your Bluetooth Netwotk. Then follow the directions to connect them and watch your computer closely. Try a SEUS if it doesn't connect. If if your running the latest version have it re-update. It worked for me! (note this will not modify your personal data, please backup to be sure.)

The only thing i can reccomend is using virtualization to run windows and then follow this tut. Tiger (as far as i know) doesn't allow Bluetooth PAN.

i couldnt make it work.... can anyone help me? Just write a better "manual".

Oh. I use W910i but on Toshiba Bluetooth stack.

I get these options:

I tried with bluesoleil and Widcomm drivers. it at least connected with bluesoleil but i couldnt have internet access.With bluesoleil, the phone was forcing me to create a data account (i think to make it work as modem). And it didnt connected at all, i dont know y.
When using widcomm, the bluetooth network wont connect. when i tried to, it appeared error messages like couldnt make connection because of security and the other was that it couldnt connect because both devices were set as NAP (or APN, i dont remember).

First i would like to know what phone you have. (I have W580i)

This is what i did after talking with SE Support:

1. Unistall Widcomm
2. Reinstall Widcomm
2. A: Set widcomm Advanced Config/Local Services/Network Access to acces the internet. Click ok. and close the boxes.
B: Got to your regular connections properties. Set it to sharing using the bluetooth network.
3. Use update service and flash to the newest firmware, even if you already have it.
4. On your phone add a new device.
5. Enter the required passkeys in computer and then phone.
6. (On your phone)Click connect, watch your computer very carefully.
7. If your computer asks for the passkey click cancel. THen when it asks for network access, tick the checkbox and click ok really quickly. The phone should then display connected. Then create a new internet account using your Bluetooth device as the connection. Set it to default and enjoy.

hi,
everyone know how can i use this guide with my k850? the options are differents of k800

any help? thanks

Look above you and try that.

I have on k550i
What do you mean with "flash newest firmware"? the phone's firmware?
You do all this before pairing the phone with pc?

EDIT

Hey!! I reinstalled bluesoleil and it worked! Thanks!!!!

I think it shouldnt be working but it is!!

Hi lecsi

I have the bluesoleil software too, but i can't connect my k850 with internet by bluetooth, could you say what did you do to made it work?

I dont know how the menus from k850 are.
Go bluetooth menu on the cellphone, search for a new device and pair with the computer. Bridge the bluetooth connection with lan connection on "network connections" on pc. On bluesoleil (mine version is 2.6) there is an option for PAN networks where you can create a new private network or select to use another network. There i selected my LAN network and clicked ok. Then on cell phone, associate the PC data account to an internet profile and save it. Then go to My devices menu on cellphone, select your pc and press connect. On pc it should appear that it is trying to connect to a PAN network, select the option to always accept connections and press ok.
you should be connected now. I dont know if all the steps to connect really matters. I dont know if you really need to bridge connections. But anyway, try that.

Great



I would use internet connection sharing (with widcomm) because bridging networks always destroys my connections.
