Qtek8080: Using as BT modem with notebook PC possible ?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

first of all: thanks to everybody who has confirmed to me that after the upgrade it is possible to use the 8080 as BT modem together with an iPAQ 5550 (had initial problems but now it works :-)

Next problem now:

Is it possible to use the Smartphone to setup an internet connection on my notebook PC via Bluetooth ?

I wasn't able to do hat before :-((

***

With my old phone (Nokia 6310) this was possible without any problems.

I'm using a Pretec BT card in CompactFlash format (which is inserted inan adapter for the PCMCIA slot of my notebook PC).

The Pretec BT manager finds the Qtek8080 (and the dialup and Obex profiles). Both devices (Qtek and notebook) "see" each other via BT.

But I do not know which modem I should setup on the PC.

(The Nokia 6310 came with a special BT modem file on the CD...)

Using the Nokia modem file does not work unfortunately.

Has anyone of you already setup successfully a BT modem connection between a PC and the E200/Qtek8080 ? (I know this is only possible since the firmware update is available. I have upgraded my Qtek, so it should already be possible.)

Any ideas ? Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advance !

Regards

Gerhard

P.S.

I am temporarily not at home and have thus not the Qtek CD with me. I am not 100% sure but I think it did not contain any modem driver file. But could please anybody of you check whether such a file is on the CD or the Orange E200 CD ? Or maybe anybody has such a file from HTC or an other working modem file ?

There is a guide for the E200 here but I don't know if that any good for you.
