Can anybody help me with using my t616 as a modem for dial-up for my desktop. Modem drivers are up-todate, mmodem is detected fine. used dial-up netwoking, phone dialer, hyperterminal. It simply does not dial anywhere. Starts dialing and immediately throws "no carrier".

Connection is through BT which works great. tranferred files OK, did sync with outlook, etc.

PLEASE help!!!

@george:

Are you sure that GPRS is activated on your account? Can you dial a normal CSD dial-up number?

Other than that, I can't really think what could be wrong. I use Bluetooth and my T610 as a dial-up modem almost every day and it's always worked fine since day 1.

I think he's trying to dial to his ISP via CSD(regular dial up) and his provider doesn't allow CSD on his account, or in general.

Hi guys,
Thanks for your reply. Yes I would like to AVOID GPRS and use my regulard CSD dial-up to my ISP. So providers prohibit CSD? what should I do to make them to allow it?

If this is just a matter of call to Customer service, I'll make their life miserable until they do it.

WHY they do not allow it?

Provider is ATTwireless in US and Rogers ATT in Canada.

Thanks again

George

Rogers ATT in Canada does not provide CSD. You must use GPRS.... because it's more expensive? and it's more efficient use of RF signal?

Thanks Estor.
What CSD or RF stands for?

Any idea about ATT wireless in US?

Hello all,
I am experiencing a problem very much like Green Lion is having. I have used my T610 with my Axim PPC as a bluetooth modem to access the GPRS data account (T-Zones) for years. I recently moved and am trying to use my T610 as my BT Modem with my Desktop PC in the same manner. I have a Belkin Bluetooth Dongle, I am using Windows XP SP2. I am able to setup the dialup connection using my Bluetooth Modem, and I can make it connect. When connected it shows the two monitors icon in the taskbar and I get some data sent and recieved, but I can not do anything online. I open up Internet Explorer and it will never load a pagem, I try to updade virus definitions and it has a connection error, nothing works. In the status window it shows data being sent but very very little being recieved. I have gone into the command prompt to check for an IP address when connected (ipconfig) and it shows that I have an asigned IP. I have tried this with the same PC and 3 different phones. All three phones are T-Mobile with the same basic T-Zones account. One is a T610 factory settings from T-Mobile, One is a T610 that has been unbranded and updated firmware, and the other is a Motorolla A630 from T-mobile. My friend can bring his T637 from Cingular/ATT and we can connect with no problem. I am very frustrated sand can't figure it out since it works just fine on my PPC and not on my Desktop. Thank you for any help.
-Nick
