Use a Bluetooth Device as a Modem

You can use a phone that has Bluetooth capabilities as a modem for your PPC-6700.

To do so, create a Bluetooth modem connection on your PPC-6700 and then send information to another device by using Bluetooth. The device relays the information over the network and then sends back to your device any information that you had requested over the connection. Once you create a modem connection to the Bluetooth phone, you can reuse it whenever you want to use the phone as a modem. Make sure that your PPC-6700 and the destination device are turned on, Bluetooth is turned on, and that the devices are within close range.

To accept a Bluetooth partnership:

1.On your PPC-6700, tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections.

2.Tap Add a new modem connection.

3.Enter a name for the connection. In the Select a modem list box, select Bluetooth. Then, tap Next.

4.If the device appears in the My Connections list, skip to step 9.

5.If the device does not appear in the My Connections list, tap New Partnership, and follow the remaining steps.

6.Select the device name from the list, and then tap Next.

7.Enter a passkey, and then tap Next.

8.Enter the same passkey on the device, and then tap Finish.

9.Select the device in the My Connections list, and then tap Next.

10. Enter the phone number to dial for this connection, and then tap Next.

11.Enter the required logon information for this connection, and then tap Finish.

You can start using this service for the program that uses the Bluetooth connection, such as Inbox on your PPC-6700, to send and receive e-mail, or Internet Explorer to browse the Web.
