Can i connect the SPV C500 via my PC to internet (active syn

[Guest Marko31]

Yep this is the question :

Can i connect the SPV C500 via my PC to internet (active sync ) and if yes, how to ??

thx in advance ! :)

You need to change your 'internet setting' under data connections to 'pass through'. Haven't tried this via Bluetooth yet, used to be a problem on the E200 (at least for me).

[Guest Marko31]

Thx it works

[Guest carl_donaldson]

How have you guys done this? Under Options on Active Sync do i select The Internet or Work for pass through - and what menu do i select on the phone?

Sorry for being stupid but under settings-data cnnections- Internet Connections I have Orange GPRS selected but in that menu I dont have Pass Through.

Thanks guys

Do this

[Guest carl_donaldson]

Thanks Sponge - fixed now - This Forum is excellent!

[Guest carl_donaldson]

Right Ok, pass through works - but now my Standard Internet connection just doesnt work - sits saying connecting for ages - I installed the shell thing that keeps the GPRS connected and when i try to connect, the Gsignal strength is excellent - surely i dont need to change the settings as told two posts back everytime i need to switch between std use and passthrough.

Please help - cant live without gprs internet - work would just not be the same.

[Guest simonbratt99]

not really sure why you would want to do this. why not just get on the pc and use the internet, if you next to it?

am i being thick here?

Ordered a bluetooth 100m dongle so can leave comp upstairs and sit watching tv downstairs whilst on messenger etc for free and also sync my new emails coming in wherever i am in the house.

Away from home ill use gprs. Simple really but want this working before i drop bluetooth into the equation.

Cant imagine that i need to change settings every time though - surely others must use a system like this.

Sorry guys, I'm pretty slow tonight ](*,) ... can the C500 connect to the Internet through an already connected PC, via Bluetooth ?

just either a Yes or a No, no need to argue more :)

thanks !

Yes it can.

I have a 100m bluetooth gongle on my PC that is connected to the internet via ADSL. My C500 has it's data connection set to Automatic, so when I am connected to ActiveSync via BT it uses my ADSL connection. If I move out of range it switches to GPRS.

[Guest jimbouk]

ditto - I can get emails and msn messenger to phone over BT from my laptop which gets broadband over wifi - so I can pretty much move the laptop anywhere at home and then have the phone within about 30 feet to get Bt connection.

I dont have 100m dongle - does that really work better or is phone BT range the limiting factor?

[Guest merydian]

Yes it can.

Thanks for the reply =D>

[Guest jharvey00]

i too had problems getting this to work - it now seems to operate but pages still display really slowly on my phone (i know its using pass through as i turned radio off to disable GPRS)

is there anyway of speeding this up at all? the phone is currently connected via the sync cable.

[Guest clacton crew]

how do you get this to work with aol broadband as i do not have a dile up connection. :?:
