Hi, I've got a bluetooth adapter for my laptop. I've tried setting up my Treo 750 that I recently upgraded to Windows Mobile 6 to tether to my laptop for internet access. Looks like Bluetooth DUN is disabled in AT&T's WM6 rom. So I figured the PAN route seems better anyway since I think it doesn't drop the connection when a call comes in (although it takes more steps to initiate it every time, kind of a pain...). So it looked pretty easy to set up. I paired the devices, set up Internet Sharing on the Treo, and set my laptop to connect to my phone through PAN and all seems to connect fine, but I can't ever actually get on the internet. The phone shows connected, the laptop shows connected. The phone offers three options for internet sharing - AT&T, ICS, and proxy. AT&T or proxy both seem to connect, ICS does not. I noticed on my laptop that my IP address for the bluetooth PAN is 0.0.0.0. I don't know if that matters or not for this type of connection. Also, I've tried this with both the MS bluetooth stack and Toshiba bluetooth stack with the same results. All seems to pair and connect perfectly, I just get no IP address, no DNS servers, and (because of that, I think) no internet connection.
