If you mean using the phone as modem, and an e.g. laptop with bluetooth card.

Yes I use this,..T68i (also the m-model) as modem, and my laptop with an Anycom bluetooth pc card,..surfing the internet on gprs. Works very good

@ohm, maybe what you mean is to use your PC as a gateway connected to the T68 via bluetooth? if this is the case yes, if you are using Windows 2000 or Windows XP. You simply have to configure Internet Connection Sharing.

And what would be the "client" in the T68? The WAP browser or the e-mail client?
Good idea, but it wil not work this way ... as far as T68 is concerned.

It is very rare that your surf on the phone at home is it not?

I for one use my big monitor and my trusty 900Mhz machine to that.

Although it would be cool in certain areas, with certain yet-to-be business collaborations. Like having free wap surf while waiting in the airports and such..

I wanted to do that too... but with the upcoming P800. If you're wondering what use that would be... I was gonna install an MSN emulator on the P800... then connect to the net using Bluetooth, and my cable internet... so that anywhere in my house, my MSN is active and free... I can chat from anywhere in my house.

since you use MSI BT, the installation process creates a DUN profile for you. just use that. no need to look for other settings.
