Hi all,
I appreciate ur good work on dis forum. It has really impacted lives.
However, pls I want to know what other thing(s) or configuration I need to do to browse on my desktop using my phone (nokia 3500c) as a modem.
I browse freely on my phone both using d phone’s native browser and other web browsers, but when I try to hook it up to my desktop via bluetooth (or USB cable), d PC Suite recognizes d connectivity & then internet ready BUT as I attempt to open any website using d native Internet Explorer browser, d screen displays “cannot found server’’ & ‘the page cannot be displayed’’ EVEN while browsing continues on my phone.
I think d technology behind Bluetooth/IR/USB connectivity is to automatically make communication btw devices, esp using ware like PC Suite? Do I need any other configuration to make d desktop browse internet using d phone?
I’ll appreciate ur prompt response. Thx.

I'm able to browse the Internet for free on my Desktop when using my phone as a modem. I'm using Opera 9.62. I was able to configure it to work for free. IE and Mozilla Firefox do not work.

@ dennevhyn_31
So pls could you post out here the settings for the Opera 9.6 free browsing using phone as modem?
Hope to here againn from u.

I can post it here but i'm not sure if it's gonna work on your computer because it depends on your network provider. But don't worry i'll teach you. Install opera 9.62 first on your computer and then i'll pm you the settings. Thank you.

can you pls. send me also the settings? i have already installed opera 9.62 on my computer. thanks.

Where are you from and who is your network provider? I'm not sure if it is going to work on your computer. But anyway, I'll PM you the settings. It's worth giving a try. I'll send it you if I'm not busy anymore. Thanks.

@ dennevhyn: would appreciate if you can already send me the settings (free pc internet using smart and/or globe ).
salamat.

@dumboman: it's not working anymore in smart. They blocked and disabled the proxy support. The only things that i can access for free on my computer are YM, chikka and MSN. I haven't tried it in globe again but most likely it's not gonna work as well. Sorry. Don't worry, i'll look for another way.

4. Put a check on the box labeled "Check time-out for connections"
5. Enter "120" on the textbox labeled "Time[s]"
6. Leave the checkbox labeled "Additional" unchecked
7. Leave the textboxes labeled "Server", "Port", "Username" and "Password" blank
8. Enter "www.tigo.com.gh@server.operamini.com:80" on the Opera Mini server textbox
9. Uncheck the box labeled "Reset of a server at an error"
