Hello
I was formally using an ASUS MyPal, with Pocket PC 4.20 . To connect to the
internet, I use my Nokia 6300 phone, by the mean of a bluetooth network
connection. It works great. I bought recently an Airis T620 PDA, with Windows
Mobile 5, and I can't do the same, it discovers my Bluetooth network Access,
but I can't activate it, in order to use my GPRS connexion.
I welcome every suggestions. Thanks

Let's make this straight. You're referring to BLuetooth DUN, and not BT PAN.
They're completely different.

BT Dial-up networking (DUN) is what the Nokia is offering (no Nokias have
gone *exclusively* the PAN way, which, unfortunately, can't be stated about
Windows Mobile). Are you absolutely sure that your new Airis can't see its
"Dial-up Networking" feature? What services do you see when you click the
Nokia from inside the Bluetooth device list? Can you post a screenshot of
it?

I am sure that the Windows Mobile 5 see a DUN

So, you've discovered the DUN service & defined a connection just like under
WM2003.

Note that actually starting a connection, as has also been pointed out in
some of my articles, is done differently under WM5 than under WM2003: in
the Connectivity bubble, there's no connection link to click. You must rely
on the individual programs' activating the connection themselves - or,
alternatively, you can start them from the Connections menu, using the
Connect context menu item (this requires a LOT of taps).

Isn't this difference between WM2003 and WM5 that confused you?

I think I was not clear. I usually only activate my Bluetooth network
connection. And I have internet. I do not need to create any dial up
connection . Just activate a network connection.

Please post a screenshot of your current Bluetooth settings screen, showing
the Nokia.

This is a bug in Windows CE - there is a problem with retrieving values from the registry.

You can work around it by opening the bluetooth applet in the control panel, removing the connection from the Trusted list, and then scanning for, making trusted and activating the connection all in one go (without closing the applet).
