Internet from PC over BT into E50?

7 replies · 5,208 views · Started 12 October 2006

HI, I have a PC with DSL internet connection and i would like to buy E50, but i don´t know if can i use PC DSL internet connection over BT or USB Cable into E50 to sync calendar or download emails etc. Could somebody help me ?

Thanks.

P.S. Gnubox is only for "old" s60v2
P.P.S I´m not sure if E50 supports IP passthrough?

All Eseries phones, I think, support and should work with "IP passthrough" (Nokia Network Bridge) and an USB cable. No Nseries phones do, nor phones like the 3250 or 5500.

no, all Eseries don�t support ip passtrough. In the user guide there is nothing about IP passtrough (only Data call or High speed data (GSM only) and packet data (GPRS) ) , and Nokia does not support BT PAN profile..., so could somebody help me to find a another way?

If E50 doesn�t have IP Passtrough and is not supported by Gnubox project, and don�t have SPP, no way!

SPP - Serial Port Protocol - the last one who have that, was 6600. After that, none have SPP. Neither E50 have it, so no way:frown:

I got my mac to connect to my Cingular EDGE service over BT by using the following instructions , just make sure that you first re-setup your phone through the BT wizard to be used as a modem.

Nearly the same problem for me - I just want a Point-to-Point TCP Connection to my PC to do SyncML with a local eGroupware-Server.

I'm sorry - but maybe I don't understand you ... you got internet to your mac via bluetooth from your cellphone - this isn't the question of this thread - isn't it?
