The USB Internet connection is working and now I want to set my laptop up to use the bluetooth connection. I was searching the Internet for a good howto for using bluez as PANU using the new configuration files without daemons, to no avail. Using pand I was able to get bnep0 created. A while back I found a statement saying something like "PANU is not supported, use NAP and/or GN." Is this still the case? My phone insists on paying the NAP role.
