I tether on average 2 hours a day (train commute) on ATT using my iPhone SIM and used the ATT MediaNet package previous to the iPhone. I am currently switching between the N82 and N95-3. The WinMo phones require PAN not DUN for bluetooth connectivity. You might try installing PAN support ... on Garage there are two projects, not sure which works best as I have not used either... https://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-pan/ https://garage.maemo.org/projects/whitejack/ On Sun, Jun 1, 2008 at 2:09 PM, Sameer Verma <sverma@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > Dr. Nicholas Shaw wrote: >> When wireless connectivity isn't available, I've connected my N800 to the >> Internet through my Motorola Razr v3 through Bluetooth.
