    I have Motorola v400 phone, and phone tools.

    I have not figured out how to use the mobil phone to dial up my isp.

    Am I missing something here? I thought I could use the phone as a
    modem.

    I thought I could bypass paying the cell phone company extra charges
    for internet access.

    Thanks,
    Robert

    Re: Does Mobile Phone Tools connect me to the Internet?

    A GSM phone has no real dialup modem, just a sort of virtual modem which
    makes a connection to a carrier's IWU (Inter Working Unit), located in some
    service center. The IWU has the actual modem that can make analog data calls
    and/or fax calls over the PSTN (public switched telephone network). If the
    carrier doesn't provide an IWU, or if your account isn't provisioned for CSD
    (Circuit Switched Data), then a GSM phone cannot data and/or fax calls. If
    your account is provisioned for CSD, then all you need is to install the phone
    as a modem with Windows Dial-Up Networking.
