Dial-up networking

The Dial-up Networking feature allows you to connect your Pocket PC to

another Bluetooth-enabled device through a phone line. Once connected,

you can browse the Internet, check/read emails, etc. on your Pocket PC.
The Bluetooth device that will provide the Dial-up Networking service

to your Pocket PC should have access to a telephone system, either a

hard-wired or a cellular connection, and capable of answering a call. Such

device can be a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone, Bluetooth-enabled

desktop computer attached to a telephone system, or Bluetooth modem.

To set up Dial-up Networking:

1. Tap > Bluetooth Manager.
2. Create a connection to the device that will provide telephone access.

See the section “Bluetooth Connection Wizard”.

3. On the My Shortcuts screen, tap and hold the newly created shortcut,

then select Connect from the pop-up menu.

4. On the first Bluetooth connection screen, double-tap New

Connection...

5. On the second Bluetooth connection screen, enter a name for the

connection, dial-up phone number, and the other prompted information.

Then tap ok.

6. Enter the required information on the succeeding screens.
