Creating a trusted pair between your smartphone and your computer
After creating the trusted pair, you can use your smartphone as a modem any time it is within range of your computer, bypassing the discovery and authentication process. You need to do this only once.
1.Make sure that your computer’s Bluetooth setting is on and that your computer is discoverable. Check the documentation that came with your computer to find and change these settings.
2.On your smartphone, go to Applications and select Bluetooth
.
3.Select On if it is not selected, and then select Setup Devices.
If your computer is not enabled with Bluetooth wireless technology, you may be able to purchase a wireless Bluetooth adapter accessory for your computer.
To use DUN, you must have a data services plan and access point name (APN) information. Check with Cingular Wireless Customer Care to obtain your data services username, password, and APN information.
