On youtube i saw a video where somebody had a bluetooth dongle on theyre computer and he cconnected it to his phone and then went onto the internet on his phone using the computers connection so gprs wasnt on or anything
Just wondering if anyone had a tutorial or link to help me on it ?
( Also it was a k750i i think, or a w810i And i woujld like to do it on aa k550i )
Full Version: Bluetooth Internet
Some time ago I also saw how to do this in a German SE forum, I tried it and after some time it worked for me, even though I have to admit that I could not figure out some real use of internet on such a tiny screen when you are near to your computer. Anyway. here is the link click
Since it is in german I will try and translate the main points for you. As I use German interface on my k750i I only guess how certain options are named in English interface.
First you have to install J2ME SDK on your computer. (could easily be found via google)
Then you have to find out your computer's IP address and via which com port your mobile is connected to the computer, you will need this later. To find out your IP address in windows go to start -> execute and type in "cmd". Now a console should appear. Here you should type in "ipconfig".
Now you have to set some settings in your mobile. Create a new date account named "wireless" (or whatever name you like).
GPRS connection
Name: wireless
APN Address: leave blank
username : leave blank
password : leave blank
IP address: -> computer's IP address
-> save
Now create a new internet profile also named "wireless" (or again whatever you like
)
connect it to your data account named "wireless".
Internet mode:http
proxy: yes
ip address: -> computer's ip address
(in the German tutorial these settings are different to mine, but this are the settings that worked for me after some trying)
now set this profile as your standard profile. Also go to general java application connection settings and set "wireless" as your standard profile.
Now connect your phone via serial port (bluetooth) to your computer.
On your computer start "connection proxy" (belongs to j2me sdk). Go to file->settings and set the right com port (the one your phone is connected to). Also set a baud rate of 57600 (if it works you can increase the rate later). Push "connect".
Start "device explorer" (also j2me sdk). Activate the option called "serial networking" and restart your device explorer. Afterwards, install an internet brwoser on your phone like opera mini via the device explorer (file->install). Now all you have to do is right click the phone's internet brwoser in your device manager and push "start". It is important that the browser on your phone is started via device explorer, otherwise it would not work.
This thing did not work out for me at my first try, so you have to be patient and try some different settings in your phone till it works. Also, for some reason, this thing only works for me with opera mini 1.2 but not with the actual version. Also you should check via "connection proxy" that the phone realy sends the data to the internet via bluetooth and not gprs, so there should be traffic in the connection proxy while you surf in the net.

Does this work with a DCU-60 Cable instead of Bluetooth? I don't have a BT device and I don't wanna buy one... just test this internet thing =D
