Bluetooth DUN

[medmansri]

I've recently signed up for T-mo Tzones package which works pretty well for what I need. I've heard that I could use my MDA to connect to my laptop via bluetooth DUN and surf the net on my laptop. If anyone has done this, could you share your settings please?

What I've done so far...
-connected bluetooth DUN with computer
-dialed *99# and left login id and password blank

I am able to connect successfully but the internet on my computer doesnt work. What could be the problem? Thanks for the help.

You can try replicating the proxy trick on your computer...

not quite sure how to do that.... but there must be another easier way shouldn't there?

Well T-Zones net access is redirected through a proxy server by T-Mobile so your not going to get it online unless you go through that proxy server. If you don't want that hassle you should subscribe to the plan designated for the MDA/HTC Wizard which dosen't need the proxy server... enough rant...

Search the Forum for the T-Zones proxy hack/trick and i'm sure you'll find the proxy address and port. In your browser/other internet app set those settings in them and see if you get online. I can't tell you if it will actually be replicatable on the PC (though i see no reason why it can't) as i use T-Mobile Internet for the MDA so i don't need a proxy (i.e. i can't test my advice).
