How do i use my v710 via bluetooth as a modem on my powerbook

CASH629 · Aug 26, 2004

Here are some instructions on how to connect to the internet using the v710 as a bluetooth modem. Its not compatible with iSync at this time, although there are rumors going around on some Mac boards that Apple is getting ready to release iSync 1.5 which is supposed to support some Motorola phones. I would assume that would include the v710.

Setting I am using:
(from another thread, but worth repeating)
In Network System Preference:

TCP/IP Tab - Make sure using PPP.

PPP Tab -
Telephone Number: #777
Account Name: [yournumber]@vzw3g.com
Password: vzw

Proxies Tab - Leave Alone.

Bluetooth Modem Tab -
Modem: 3Com Impact Analog 14.4
Uncheck Wait for Dial Tone

Go back to the PPP Tab and click Dial Now...
That brings up internet connect, make sure it's name, number, and password setting are the same and click connect...

It works great. This message was posted with my Airport Card turned off and no devices plugged into my powerbook...

I hope this helps you all out.

If you connect this way it runs off of your minutes
