Could someone show me how to set up the BT for net browsing on both PC and TG50?

I can hotsync with BT though...

Read the post at the bottom of the page in THIS (http://www.cliesource.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2609) thread (last post on page-1).

And if you still have problems, give me more info about your system and I'll see if I can help.

Aloha, GG

GeekGod,

I've followed all your instructions but still couldn't get it work. :(

I press "Connect" on my Clie, my PC beep and a message pop up in the system tray "Bluetooth Connection Successful. Bluetooth device XXX is connected to 'Bluetooth Serial Port' service in this computer"
Then on my Clie display "Signing On".....and then "PPP Timeout 0x1231" message. :(


I guess the problem is on my bluetooth setting in my computer, but have no idea where to look for the problem...

There are few postings about bridging the bluetooth with ethernet card. I did it. BTW, I use XP Pro.
Now in my Network Connection I see a Network Bridge section with 3 items inside, the network bridge icon itself, Local Area connection (status Enabled, Bridged) and Bluetooth Network (status Network Cable Unplugged, with an 'X' on its icon).
And my broadband connection icon status is Connected and Shared.
My Internet Connection Sharing is also enabled with most services enabled.


Finally, here is my BT setting on my XP:
Local Services enabled: Bluetooth Serial Port (COM9)
Among the other services, there are Network Access and Dialup Networking which are set to Manual.

I tried to activate the Network Access service, coz I see there are settings to "allow other devices to access Internet/LAN in this computer"
But when I press "Connect" on my Clie, the BT service ignored the connection request (no beep, message popped up).

Thanks for the BIG help!

Geek God,
Ok. read your other posting. I disabled the bridge and enabled the BT "Network Access" local service.
Then I tried to "Connect" then my BT service respond, acknowledging the "Network Access" service being requested.
"Signing On"....but then..... "PPP timeout" again. :(

So now where is the problem? Many thanks
