Hi all
I am having problems connecting to the net using the harrier as a broadband modem. Several Telecom helpdesk staff tried. Orb staff tried and still no luck.
The error message is 'com8'

Thanks

Lui

Welcome to Geekzone... Are you trying to use it as a modem via USB? IF yes, have you tried the instructions on this page?

This sounds very much like you are trying to connect via Bluetooth. is this correct?

If yes, you need to make sure your harrier has v1.35 ROM before you start. Try also reading this guide http://www.telecom.co.nz/binarys/....

If you are using Bluetooth, then you are in for a world of hurt. Best to get started with the USB connection and go from there....
