Two reasons,
1. Your 3g Dongle is not supported.
2. You have to edit the PPP settings with;
a. APN
b. username
c. password
For Example, I will use my data provider-
a. APN = internet.beeline.ru
b. username = beeline
c. password = beeline
Yours will be different, so check with your internet provider for your dongle.

TyTN (v1605) as bluetooth modem...?

Hi all - help!
I am trying to set my TyTN to be a bluetooth modem. The instruction manual is useless.
If I try to connect to my device from my laptop (Dell D610) I get the only option of installing a modem device - I do this but it simply acts as a standard dial-up. I am prompted for a telephone number, username/password. Furthermore there is no generic bluetooth modem displayed in control panel as suggested by the manual.
What I am after is a way to connect my laptop to the TyTN over bluetooth and then use the 3G connectivity as internet access...
I can use the 3G from the phone no probs - so I know the phone is correctly configured in terms of access. It is just the bluetooth part I cannot get working.
It makes no difference if I have wireless modem started or not either...
Help???
Rich
OK - I figured this out...
To install Bluetooth modem do this:
1 - activate bluetooth and set TyTN to be discoverable
2 - on laptop search for new device and connect
3 - select dial-up networking service and connect
4 - set up passwords if necessary
5 - when presented with dial-up info, give the connection a name and simpy add *99# as the phone number.
6 - ok this and the connection is set up and a new dial-up conection (mine is COM40) appears in control panel modems.
In order to connect:
1 - turn on bluetooth on TyTN
2 - activate wireless-modem, select bluetooth and hit start
3 - double-click the new connection on the laptop
It should open the BT port, connect and you should be off...
I got 115k/sec using this over 3G
Rich
PS - you can also do this using the built in USB modem. Basically, start the wireless-modem app, select USB and hit start. Now plug your USB cable in and when prompted install the driver off the vodafone CD (I used the one is OEM/Apps/Drivers/USBModem). Once installed again put *99# as the phone number of the connection. To use simply start wireless modem as usb, connect the device and dial the new connection name. I got 215k/sec indicated!!!!

The 115K and 215K are default port speeds when you setup the connection. If you select the properties of the Bluetooth and USB Modems you can raise it up to 921K
Thanks for the help, here, rakr1 - I've also been pulling my hair out over this. I got the BT modem recognised (also as COM40) and tried using the Vodafone ConnectMe app but it attempts an unsupported AT command and bombs out. So, using your instructions I've now got my TyTN connected.
However, it's still constrained to 115200bps. The modem properties dialog doesn't let me set it any higher. Ideas? How did you change this, rkorzuch?
Thanks.

Mine only allows up to 230K .... is there a newer driver or something ? i used the link from the wiki.
Thanks!
Oh, as a side note, when I tried to install this -- it said something in computer management that made it sound like it was in beta -- something like Preproduction version, [REMEMBER TO CHANGE SYSID] something along those lines .. is that bad?

Don't pay attention to it - in reality, your TyTN communicates far faster with the desktop. the port speed only hs meaning over serial connections, not over IrDA / BT / USB ones.
(At least, this has always been the case in all my tests.)
sorry to sound stupid an' all, but I'm on t-mobile (UK) and I'd like to know what bearing this has on their "Web 'n' Walk" plans, I'm only on the normal version, rather than the plus or max, so would the methods on this site avoid their notice?
thanks, Forlornity
(oh, and First post! I've been lurking for a while now but decided to register today)

I am not sure if you can connect through the wireless modem, I would expect that your dial up wouldn't work. You can give it a try. Even if they would notice, what can they do? You can always tell them that you did it by accident.
I am pretty sure I've read a post somewhere that someone was doing this for quite a while.
As far as I know the difference comes in the traffic limit, where web and walk should be 1 GB and plus is 3GB.
What's a bluetooth modem?
I followed the steps above and managed to get connected (which is great. thanks Rich!)
However, everytime I try to do this again it gets to the registering on the network phase, I can see the connection, send and receive lights blinking and then it suddenly stops and I get a "error 31 : a device attached to the system is not functioning" error.
Any ideas?
Cheers,

Vogue as internet connection for xbox360?

can anyone tell me if this is possible or if it has already been done.
edit: got my answer thanks to musicman247 over at ppcgeeks
Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. Latency is too high. But, you may be in a better data service than I am, so:
Steps to use phone as internet connection for Xbox360 & Mac
First of all, this requires the use of a computer or laptop with an ethernet port.
1. Connect your phone to your computer with internet sharing
2. Open "Network Connections" on your phone
3. Click on your Phone's internet connection
4. Ctrl+Click on your Ethernet port
5. Right-click on either one you have selected
6. Choose "Bridge"
7. Connect your Xbox360 (or Mac) to your computer/laptop via an ethernet cable.
Viola! It works!...at least it did for me.

[Q] establishing a console connection trough serial cable

Hello everyone,
I am taking networking classes and I was wondering if it's possible, instead of carrying a laptop with me, to use my SGS2(rooted) to configure switches/router with.
I bought a female to female usb adapter, and i also have a USB to serial cable. So all the cabling is fine, but still when I open a console emulator i get nothing going there...
I believe it may be parity related, but there seem to be no console parity settings on any of the terminal emulators that i was able to find on the market.
Usualy, if you extablish a console connection from a laptop via USB, the usb port gets defaulted to COM3 or COM4. Do android devices have a defaulted COM port to the usb connection, Is there a config file where I can change it, or is it supported at all?
any help would be appreciated,
thanks

Ethernet activation?

I have a UG802 and would like to connect it via a wired connection for better speed than what I get with wireless. I have a USB/ethernet adapter, but ethernet is not detected when I plug it in, even though the ethernet light is on on the adapter. I tried manually switching on ethernet in the settings, but the switch just slides back to "off" after a second, presumably because it is not detecting the network. Any ideas?
Thanks
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? I tried another USB/Ethernet dongle, same result. I have no idea if there is a "right one" or not or how to find it if there is a "right one."

Turn off wifi
if it a pre built system and you just installed windows there should be a mb driver cd that have the Ethernet drivers on it. if not you have to go to your mb vendor web page or the ethernet vendor web page and download the drivers if there not installed yet.

[Q] Tether a rooted TF700 to a rooted Android phone via USB

Hi,
I have a rooted TF700 and a rooted Nexus S both running CM10.1. Is it possible to connect a USB cable from the dock of the Infinity to the Nexus S and use its network connection? If I plug a cable in then the USB tethering option in Settings is greyed out.
I imagine this would involve the use of a different kernel - I'm willing to try and make my own if I need to and someone can point out what config option needs to be compiled in.

If you do it, add the ability for two android devices to be connected together, one as host and the other as attached media device or attached storage so they can exchange files.
Regarding internet sharing, I do this now with my tab and my phone but over wifi. I just toggle my phones wifi hotspot (or you can tether for free with PDANet and FoxFi; depends on carrier - on Verizon fails to be able to download market apps so was dysfunctional for me) and connect the tabs wifi to the phones wifi shared internet (definition of a wifi hotspot). Waaaay better, no wires. And works on stock or unlocked/rooted/ROMd.

This is already possible using the Prime/Infinity dock's USB port I believe. Using the micro USB port on the tablet itself would not be possible as it registers as a client not a host.

Yep, this already works fine using the built-in Android hotspot. My issue is that my phone's battery dies in a couple of hours doing this. I want to use USB because it would use much less power on both the phone and the tablet (and the phone would actually charge while plugged into the dock!).
Actually it seems to work already! I was being less than smart and had forgotten to turn on 'USB tether' on the phone. It's a pity there's no notification on the tablet to show it has an internet connection via USB though.
