Anyone using their N95 to connect laptop via Vodafone usingg BT serial modem link? Have my phone connected to laptop over BT and phone can access Internet but cant link the two together. WHen I use Nokia PC Suite to connect to internet I get a "connection to network failed" message.

I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

I've used mine successfully, but that was a while back. I'll take another look (will probably be tomorrow at the earliest though) and see what I did last time.

Would appreciate that, tearing my hair out at the moment.

Hey Peejayw,

Just got a data plan today and sorted this out on my end.

I'm connecting using Bluetooth Dial-Up connection. All I had to do is set up the connection to call *99# do not enter a usename or password. No problems here - have you tried this?

Which Plan did you choose NZTechfreak? Mobile Data Plan? And how much bandwith is included?

Do whatever you want to do man.

I'm on the extortionately expensive 3G for $80 plan, but I'll need it - away in Hastings for 6 weeks from Monday...

Yep all sorted, did the same as you. I was trying to connect via Nokia PC Suite but no joy there.
