yes it can be done, i use it myself.
I am on o2 here in the uk and they have a special program to use but only for o2 phones.
It can be done but I dont know how to set it up other than using a program like I have.

you need to call your sevices operator...they will send you some settings for gprs.....after that you create a new connection on yyour pc and select to use the bluetooth or infrared port whatever u wana use....the service operatolr will also give u a phone number that u need to dial thru the pc to connect.
that shud be it,,u will be all set

ok people thanks a bunch..alls connected ..i got a connection speed of 115.2 kbps wich is ok via gprs
but yeah no sites r opening:S cant browse nothing on the pc why is that?
Posted by SCORPIONKING1982
the 115.2 kbps is the speed of the BT connection between your phone and the PC, not your GPRS speed mate.
I dont know why not, does your operator allow browsing www sites over GPRS?

The different WAP and GPRS accounts on your phone each have a corresponding number, which forms part of the number your mobile network provided you to enter as the dial-up number on your PC; it is the last digit of this number. You have to use the correct number so that the connection knows, which account on your mobile to use.
If you look at the list of accounts on your mobile they are numbered from top to bottom, the first account being number one (they are not actually numbered like this on your mobile, you will have to count mentally). Simply count down to the required account and note its corresponding number; now replace the last digit of the dial-up number on your PC with this new number.
You should now be bale to access the internet.

I know you have a cable but have you tried using it over BT anyway just to see if its any different?
