Hi guys,

trying to get online with my laptop through my phone(w960). Works fine with the USB cable (i am using it now) but when connecting with bluetooth despite the m-router and pc suite saying it connected the mobile networking wizard always just says "searching for mobile phone"

Any ideas how to get this to connect?

Cheers and beers!

open up control panel, and look for the modems listed.
Goto the diagnostics tab and do a query on each of them, you see an output in the query that mentions SE... thats the COM part you want to enable in M-Router

Hi All,
With alot of playing and the eventual setup on a different laptop to test - I have it working (using as we speak).

Basically i setup m-router to use a random blank comm port (comm 3) instead of the Bluetooth modem port - then mobile networking wizard detected the phone straight away. When you setup the bluetooth connection it still uses the bluetooth modem on comm 5.

When setting up connections i would advice everyone to select the option to use the phones existing settings and then select a connection that doesnt begin with wap (eg mobile.o2.co.uk instead of wap.o2.co.uk) as this doesnt seem to work.

Glad i managed to figure this out - hope this info will be useful to someone else.

Cheers

And make sure to check the firewall. It can cause problems too.
