I'm trying to establish bluetooth dial up network with my XDAII & laptop.
I've got both devices bonded but the ports seem to differ from each other so it won't dial up via my XDAII.
I've read other forums about installing a new bluetooth stack but I'm a bit weary unless I get a bit more info.

Anybody out there that can help??
I've included some links that I found that discuss this topic but the download links are broke.

I have got this working thanks to a few searches.
Just for info if other people are getting stuck but here is the thread that I used;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=16384&highlight=bluetooth+modem
For info the details off the o2 site are very detailed if you want to use a bluetooth USB connection, it is mainly if you are using the cradle.

Anyway I'm a happy chappy, I can now sit in my garden & upload files without loads of wires!! :lol:

hope it's rather small files because gprs is often pretty expensive pr MB
and always very very slow unless one is used to 56K modem i guess

Yes files are quite small but when your stuck in a caravan for a week with no phoneline this is the next best thing.
