Hello I have a bluetooth enabled nokia phone which can be used to connect to internet by using Bluetooth Dial up networking service. In order to do that, I should be able to add the Nokia bluetooth modem in SUSE 10.1 (Using KDE) How do I do it
Until the phone company brings my adsl line, that's what I'm doing. You need two files:
/etc/ppp/peers/gprs:
---snip---
Now, open two consoles. In one type:
rfcomm connect rfcomm0
to create a link via bluetooth to your phone, and then in a second console:
pppd call gprs.
Mine doesn't pick up DNS settings from the phone company, so I have to edit /etc/resolv.conf manually.
Hope this helps. If anyone knows how to Yast-ify this, please let me know. The modem module has space for AT commands, but only three lines.

Only thing I had to do by hand was add the phones bluetooth address to /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf to have it bind automagically. The rest you can do in YaST: Modem: Baud Rate: 115200 Init1: ATH Init2: ATE1 Init3: AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet","0.0.0.0",0,0 {this seems to differ from phone to phone, I got it from some forum for my Moto} Provider: PhoneNum: *99***1# username: none/or internet or something (think its not used for my provider) NB: works faster if you tick "Stupid Mode" Increase your "Idle Time-out" (that took 2days of my life debugging) E-Mail disclaimer: http://www.sunspace.co.za/emaildisclaimer.htm
