Getting netfront to work

[Clie_Constructo]

Hi I have tried time and time again to try and get internet on my clie but I dont know how..
Im trying to connect via the cradle to a computer thats connected to the intrnet by another computer thats on broadband.
Please someone tell me step by step how to do it.
The manuel tells me nothing and my cd manuel keeps freezing.
Thanks

u can connect via your cradle, download softick ppp, set your connection to via craddle, and connect. Kaching! Browse thu google to download the program. I am not able to direct u to the website bcoz it is down. But i am sure that the program is called Softick PPP. It works well for me.

BT-Bluetooth. Sort of wireless connections within a distance.
WiFi(Wireless Fidelity i think)- wireless internet connection

You may want to do a web search on these two to understand them better. Go to this site regarding WiFi:

dont both wi-fi and bt both require additional hardware like bluetooth enabled phones etc ?

Yes, for BT you need to have a BT enabled phone or a BT enabled pc with internet. For WIFI you need an AP (access point) or a PC with a bridged wifi connection recieving internet though a wire. Using a BT enabled phone or an AP are the easiest, but it is possible to use either through a PC.

my dad has the new sony ericson with bluetooth... is that eough?

D you mean to say the nx80 has built in bluetooth?

[Wytnucls]

I have connected to my broadband connection via the cradle after installing Softick PPP v2.
I didn't know it could be done and have been connecting only through Wi-Fi before.
This NX80 never stops to amaze me!
Thanks to LightBuLB for the pointer!

nope .. you can use the Internet ... but you would require additional Hardware like a Bluetooth card or a wi-fi card ... as Meir87 pointed out, you will also need to have a bluetooth phone etc etc :rolleyes: ... so make sure you have the hardware required for connecting to the internet ...
