I have my P900 connected to the Internet via a Windows
2000 PC with a bluetooth USB adapter. It all works
fine except that to connect the P900 to the Net I have to
walk to the Windows 2000 PC, go to "My Bluetooth
Places", find the P900, and do 'connect to serial port'.

This kind of defeats half the point of having the wireless
connection as I have to be in front of the PC to get the
P900 online Also if the connection drops (out of range)
etc then I have to go back over to the PC and do it all
over again.

Is there any way with the Windows 2000 software (I'm
using a Widcomm chipset Bluetooth USB dongle) of
having it keep trying to reconnect to the P900, or
automatically connect to it when it discovers its
prescence - so that I don't have to keep walking over
to the Windows 2000 PC and manually connecting. It
would be really nice to be able to just walk into my
house and have the P900 automatically go online...

Thanks
