Hi All,
I'm trying to connect my laptop (Windows XP) to the internet using my
new T-Mobile SonyEricsson D750i over Bluetooth. I'm on a monthly
contract with T-Mobile, and can access the internet using the phones
built-in browser.
This is what happens.
I click on 'My Bluetooth Places', click my mobile (ablse), click
'Dial-up Networking on ablse'.
A dialog box titled "Connect BluetoothConnection" appears, and I type in
the following:
Username user
Password wap
Dial *99***1#
The laptop then dials the connection and after a few seconds the message
"Bluetooth connection is now connected 115.2Kbps" appears on the taskbar
and a dial up connection appears to be established.
The phone says "Connecting", then after about 30 seconds displays a
message "Connection failed, check coverage or mobile internet settings".
The dial up connection on the laptop then terminates.
I've tried various combinations of username and password - user
one2one/wap, leaving both blank and different numbers *99***1#, *99#,
*99***2# etc with exactly the same results.
I'm not sure quite where to look next. In the phones list of Data
Accounts there are three set up, "T-Mobile Internet", "T-Mobile GPRS",
"T-Mobile WAP" with settings which seem correct according to various web
pages I've seen.
Anyone any thoughts?
It worked like a dream when I was with Vodafone on a t68i... :(

With Windows having a habit of visiting windowsupdate (despite having
switched off auto updating) I daren't connect my laptop via GPRS in
windows. Not that I'd want to use it anyway ;)
Linux only GPRS for me ;-)

I only ever used 'doze with the t68i because of Vodafone's GPRS
software. It's bye-bye time for Uncle Bill now!
I'm using the Easy GPRS Connect front end and it works a treat. Are you
using a front-end or writing your own pppd stuff?
Cheers,
Andrew

Since I'd always written my own pppd chat scripts since I first dialled up
in Linux, I just modified an existing one for (Orange) GPRS. Never really
bothered with the pppd frontend stuff.
