<br> Here at work they won't let me setup a wifi AP, so I have to use<br>bluetooth. I bought a bluetooth dongle and installed it and it's software<br>on my *cough* Windows *cough* PC. I can get connected just fine, but<br>
cannot get connected for internet access. </blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Has anyone done this<br>successfully in windows with a BT dongle?
<br></blockquote><div>... <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> A rogue hotspot would just get me canned.<br><br>Any thoughts? Thanks!
<br><br></blockquote></div><br>I have the exact same problem - I've tried various solutions intended for Palm/PocketPC (Softick PPP etc) but they don't work since the 770 doesn't really believe that the bluetooth PC it's paired with is a phone. I think what's needed is some software that handshakes with the 770 as if it's (say) some SonyEricsson phone.
<br><br>In the end (after loads of posting in the ITT forums to try and work this out) I gave up and just set up a rougue AP when I want to show someone somthing on the 770 - in effect that just means I don't use it much :(
