I have a Nokia E71 phone, an N810 and a laptop
running Fedora Core 9. The laptop has Bluetooth, also a USB cable to
connect to the E71.
If I have a good signal, I can use the packet data interface on the phone
itself, or on the N810 via Bluetooth to get an Internet connection.
But the laptop does not always work. Close to a tower, if I use the cable
and select 'PC Suite' mode on the phone, the Gnome network app shows a
wireless connection and syslog talks about ttyACM0 and activating my
connection.
Further away from a tower, the connection does not show in the app and
syslog says 'ignoring due to lack of mobile broadband capability'
I had naively thought the two devices used the same capability on the
phone.
Does anyone know what the problem is, and if it's possible to get a
connection on the laptop at greater distance ?
