Hello everyone!

Before beginning my inquiry, I would like to say that if this kind of post was already posted, I´m apologize, but the true is that I didn´t dinf anything regarding to this.

So, here comes my inquiry: I have

1. Mio A501 with - access to internet from my mobile provider, bluetooth, ´´Network Drives´´ where I can configure a Bluetooth PAN Driver. If I try to configure the Bluetooth PAN Driver, I should be able to insert an IP address or to get the IP address automatically.
2. A Dell Latitude D620 which has already a Bluetooth driver installed and also the posibility to create a PAN network.

When I try to connect the Dell with my PDA, making a PAN network, my Dell says that the connection cannot be made and I should check the configuration or to see the help file(which by the way it doesn´t help me so mych).

I would like to connect the PDA with my Dell creating a PAN network and using my mobile data subscription that I have in order to navigate to internet from my Dell. I would like to use this option, for example, when I´m travilling and I don´t any wireless network around me or the posibility to connect directly to LAN.

I would appreciate any information regarding this inquire and tell me if you also tried to do something like this, or maybe this is not gonna be ever possible.

If your device provides DUN (dial-up networking) this is the easiest one to setup. You can find more in our Bluetooth Guides.

Well, I should check out and see if my device provides DUN, even if I doubt it.
But I guess that my problem is that i cannot make the PAN connection between the two devices, and I don´t know why.
