Subject: [Bluez-users] emulating a GPRS modem with a linux PC
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2006 11:02:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <45617D44.3010403@det.uvigo.es> (raw)

Hi all:

I have a PDA and I need to connect to the internet with it, but at work. 
I tried Synce but it doesn't work, because Pocket IE wants a true 
connection, and Synce still doesn't support the desktop passthroug.

So I had the idea of emulating a BlueTooth GPRS modem with the PC. This 
is: the PDA will think that my PC has a GPRS modem and will use it to 
connect to the internet.

Is possible to do that? I tried to do it with pppd and /dev/rfcomm0 but 
I was unable to make it work :(

Thanks.
