Hi
I have searched extensively on both this forum and google, but still cannot connect to the internet on my laptop using my K800i on O2 payandgo.
Basically, what are the settings (asn, ip, user, pass etc. etc.) for my phone, laptop, and bluetooth?
I try connecting using the bluetooth modem, and the *99***1# number and it says connected, then disconnects from my phone saying something like "ppp connection error"...
is it a PAN fault?
Thanks

I am not O2 (T-mobile) but I was having the same problem and it was driving me wild with frustration. Have you not rang O2 technical support? That was the only way I got mine working. Sorry for not helping much although the dial up number for me was *99#

You can make a PAN connection on your laptop by the bluetooth software on it.
Not all BT drivers know what PAN is, but most BT2.0 drivers do.
If you have older BT drivers like Widcomm 3.x or 4.x then PAN doesn't work.
With the newer 5.X drivers PAN is available.
Also most Toshiba drivers support PAN.
I don't know about IVT drivers but I think the newest do support PAN.
On the K800 you must choose a working data account under bluetooth internet settings.
Also choose a working data profile under Internet profile and if you have a Java browser under Java settings.
When you've got a BT2.0 stick then you can make a 3Mb/s connection to your K800.
Gprs and 3G will limit the speed you really get.

Just received reply from O2, and apparently Pay and Go sims don't allow "GPRS Mobile Web" - if that is what I need........
Are they correct? I can access the whole internet on my phone, just not on my pc, so i thought there was a problem with the bluetooth connection, rather than the Sim card.

If you can browse on your phone then it also should be possible to browse on your laptop, using PAN (bluetooth network) this must be easy because you don't need modem settings anymore.
When you have a PAN you need to edit some settings on your laptop, the PAN network isn't default open for all services like ftp and pop3.
The settings are similar to a normal network connection and you can get a network icon in your tray if you wish.

That looks like a secure connection, it won't work 
If you get a working connection then be prepared for the phone wanting to connect to gprs/3G internet as it will be seen as another pc on your network

l think what o2 said is correct about PAYG sims not having full http access, l used to use an o2 sim in my p900 (when it was free  ) but could only use the web browser with it, other apps like agile messenger, VC, fondo player etc. wouldn't work. |

I used to use agilemessenger fine with my wap minutes on o2 with my old P900, I also managed to make a bluetooth internet connection on my laptop but it was painfully slow

I've tried different settings, PAN on my phone is set as client (when the pc has made its first connection you can choose this) and the bluetooth PAN drivers give an automatic IP and dns to this connection.
On the SE developers forum I've asked why PAN works this way and not the other way.
Under bluetooth settings is 'Bluetooth internet' telling me that you should be able to choose a PAN connection from there.
This is not true, you can choose an existing gprs connection instead and PAN is not available.
I hope they'll answer my question soon
