Ive just purchased the Nokia 6600 and a bluetooth dongle (belkin) and I want to be able to surf the net on my phone but not have to pay the gprs charges when im at home and instead connect via bluetooth to my pc.

Now ive installed the dongle and shared the connection just fine but how do I tell the phone to use the bluetooth connection not the GPRS?

Thanks in adavance
Will

In theory yes, have a look on this guide. The steps to share the internet are the same ones to allow for synchronisation. It works with other Symbian phones, like Nokia 3650 and Sony Ericsson P800/P900.

What happens is that it seems Nokia has removed part of this functionality on the Nokia 6600, and it's not able to fully use this. A shame...
