    Hello,

    Question 1: Laptop on the internet with V551 dial-up.

    I installed the modem, via bluetooth.
    Appears in Device Manager, "query modem" works OK.
    When I dial out from the computer, from the Dial-up connections, it opens up the call dialog on the phone(calling my dial up number), but it disapears after 2-3 seconds. If i call the number manually from the v551, (redial by buttons), it connects as i can hear all the familiar dial-up sounds in the speaker. What am i doing wrong? Anybody managed to fix that? I noticed some users got their palm to access the net like this.

    Question 2: V551 on the internet with broadband?

    Can I surf the net with my V551 via laptop? The laptop is on cable.
    I noticed a bluetooth network icon under my network connections. Can it bo done?
    The phone is all default, no editing or anything. Bluetooth connection only, no cable. (i'll buy it if I can accomplish one of the above).

    Thx in advance.

    I'm also wondering about this.
    Is it possible to use the V551 as a modem and use my dial number to access the net on my laptop. I'm not paying for internet access on the phone, if that matters.

    Thanks,
    Bob T.

    I have Cingular and a 551. I ended up having to purchase PDA data service($39.95 unlimited) to finally access the internet with my laptop.
