WiFi for the BJ2


Recommended Posts

The BJ2 has no integrated WiFi.

As it stands, there appears to be no available microSD WiFi cards on the market. Search for one and you'll get about a million links to articles up to a year and a half old about Spectec announcing one. No progress has been made.

So my first guess would be to find an adapter that will go from a miniSd or SD WiFi card to the micoSD slot. Unfortunately, these adapters are made to fit the smaller cards into the bigger slots, and no amount of lube will solve our problem.

Then I remembered that the BJ2 comes with a USB cable which can be used to connect to your computer. This is used for synchronization and internet connection sharing. However, the internet connection is shared to the computer from the BJ2, which we all know.

This makes me wonder, can it be reversed? Can a USB WiFi card be attached to the BJ2? I don't see why not. Connecting it wouldn't be a problem with the cable that comes with the phone, an off the shelf USB WiFi card, and a $3 USB gender changer adapter to hook them together.

Configuring it and getting it to work with the BJ2, well, that is the question I wish to have answered by this thread. Any ideas?

I have been wondering that too.

I'd even be happy to use my computer's internet on my blackjack2 through bluetooth or even the USB connection

You can use your computer's internet throught the phone when connected to Active Sync via USB or Bluetooth. You go to the connection menu of the browser and change it to "The Internet"... just remember to change it back when you are done. I use "WAP Network".. I have found that if you use the "Auto" or leave it on "The Internet" that it causes the "Remote party has ended the connection." error.
