connecting internet via bluetooth

Hi community!
I have an USB Bluetooth on my desk computer which has a permanent internet connection. I want to connect to internet with my XdaII and i want to use the computer's internet connection.(and also use bluetooth to sync my pda.) I tried the "connect via bluetooth" option in Activesync program on my pda but nothing happens although bluetooth is on and my computer is discoverable.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thank you for your time.

If you set your Activesync to stay connected after you sync, you should be able to use the internet through that connection.
I just tried it and I am getting 483k transfer speeds.
Thanks,

Share Internet for other Devices

Hello,
I connect tornado device to a Wi-fi hot spot, and I want to know if it is possible to share its internet connection with other devices through bluetooth.
Thanks in advance!

At the moment, you can share only your data (GPRS/EDGE) connection though PAN/USB (Internet Sharing app) or ad-hoc WiFi (WiFiRouter app). Unfortunately WiFi connections cannot be shared, neither thought USB nor PAN. If I am wrong, please do correct me!

There is a way, but only for PDA, i think it shares wifi via BT

Are you sure that it is possible to share the internet connection.
I tried with ipaq 2215 pda, but I couldn't manage to connect.
Thanks in advance.

Internet Sharing using my SDA?
I've been banging my head on this one. I've got "Internet Sharing" App installed on my SDA with WM 6.0. I can connect to my Laptop via USB cable and "share" the internet in that way. I"ve tried "Internet Sharing" via Bluetooth or DUN attempts via BLuetooth to no avail. Any hints how to get Bluetooth functioning with "Internet Sharing" or DUN? Thanks in advance.

Sharing ActiveSync connection via Wifi

Hi there,
I've been looking for a solution of the following problem and I was wondering if anyone could help me:
You all know that ppc (windows mobile) connected via ActiveSync to a computer has direct access to the internet connected to that computer (some kind of pass-through connection). I would like my ppc to act as a Wifi hotspot sharing that ActiveSync Internet connection.
Most Wifi sharing software available assumes sharing GPRS/3G etc. connection established via cellular network. I would like to share internet connection established via USB/ActiveSync pass-through.
I'm not sure if I'm making myself clear.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?
Best regards.

Hi,
Did you manage to find a solution? I have the same requirement.
Thanks,
Paolo
