Widcom stack bonus! Wireless Networking(OT- not GPS related)

---

Hi all,
I've been following the Widcom port across to the XDA-II, not because I want to attach a GPS, but because of the much expanded feature set.
I installed the BluetoothGPS.zip file, then activated all the new services offered by the phone.

I have a Belkin F8T001 USB Adapter in my broadband PC. I want to use BT to surf the net from the XDA without paying O2. Trouble is, my Belkin doesn't provide an Activesync Profile, so it can't be done. Until now, that is.
Belkin USB adapters offer a 'Network Access' service. The Widcom stack now allows the XDA to wireless network with my PC, map drives with Resco Explorer, surf the net without the bother of Activesync, oh, and Activesync over BT Wireless LAN if you like. The PC acts very much like a WiFi access point.

Another excellent bonus is the ability to browse the PDA with the BT 'File Transfer' Service. This is easier than browsing through Activesync, as you can open picture files directly without having to transfer them to the PC first.

Nice one guys, well done!

And where can I download these drivers ?

Sounds like a solution. Where???? :lol:

is there a current url for an up to date version of the widcomm stack which can be directly installed?

PAN vs LAP Bluetooth Profile on XDA / iMate

---

G'day All,

Thanks for the post on Net access - It's not as easy as it looks (having spent AGES getting iPAQs working with Bluetooth Dongles (BTW: You DO need 1.3.2.7 of the Widcomm Stack on XP to make PAN connections work!!!

My question is:

Has anyone managed to work out how to get PAN or LAP Network Bluetooth access going on an XDA II??

I can easily get a PAN network access connection going on an iPAQ 5550 (with the identical Widcomm stack version) - On the XDA II with the Widcomm stack installed, it defaults to a LAP profile... (Using BT Null Modem). I can't get this method working with internet access.

If I connect XP to the iMate, then the PAN driver is used on the PDA - BUT I can't get any traffic through (this is the same on the iPaq and the iMate).

Anyone got any clues / hints for me, please?!?! (ROM versions etc are latest).

Cheers.
Andrew

Hi,

I'd same the problem, but since I enabled service Personal Network Sever, then at PC side connect to Xda II, it's working, I can ping from / to Xda II.

(enable service by start > setting > bluetooth > from File Transfer to Personal Network Server, I checked them all)

But it's problem to connect via Xda II to PC, then I restarted PC and PPC and make new shortcut of PC Network Access.

Now it's working I can use Resco file explorer to map driver of PC share folder and get access to file. But it's seem unstable because it's hang sometime.

ps: Thank so much to the great person who made bluetoothgps.zip.

I tried the url, but is is not responding anymore with ftp and the username and password. Has anyone it for me?? :cry:

I'd very much like to get hold of this file as well, same problem - user/pass doesn't work anymore.

Probably don't need another "me too" but I have been searching for this stack high and low! Please let us know where we can get it!

Immense thanks!
