Then you will get a wireless ethernet where the name and the password       for the network is configured on the phone.              Another option might be to connect to the phone via bluetooth.       If you start drakconf, and click on Set up a new network interface, i think       there might be some solutions there.       I don't remember if you have to do some basic bluetooth configurations on       the pc first, go pair with the phone.              There many years since i have bean running bluetooth, and i don't remember       all the details.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
