This guide shows you all the configurations steps needed to add a mobile phone as a Bluetooth
modem to your computer. You can simply use your cell phone as a modem. We are using
computer running Windows 2000 without modem, a TDK USB Bluetooth dongle (version
1.3.2.7), and a Ericsson T39m in this example.

14. The Wizard will then create the Connection itself. Uncheck "Use area code" because we

Hello,
First of all you will need to download the drivers available for the mobile phone. I guess you
will find them on their official site. Just install them and you are connected to internet. Also, if
you know linux based operating system then you can use the live CD , it is simple to use in
linux. You have to just plugin the mobile phone, without installing the drivers. Guess this
information will help you.
