Hi,
I'm pretty sure some of you have tried this or a variant of this.
My landlord is in this dilemma. He couldn't find a laptop model that has PCMCIA slot. Phased out na daw according sa mga stores. He's going to buy one because namatay na iyang P3 na laptop.
Our internet is currently Globe Visibility. It uses the Huawei E620 modem which is PCMCIA device. Tauran ra siya ug sim and then connect.
You can actually use the sim card in a phone and you can actually get unlimited internet minus the ability to make calls.
So considering what devices we had, I proposed this solution for him:
Internet -> Cellphone -> Bluetooth -> Laptop
WE DON'T HAVE A USB CABLE. I left it in Cebu and have been totally reliant on the bluetooth.
Since his phone doesn't support 3G I used my K810i instead so we can take advantage of the highspeed internet.
I installed the sim in my phone and paired the phone with my laptop via bluetooth. I configured DUN on the laptop as well as BT PAN. I can trigger my phone to dial the internet using the laptop.
Here's where my headache starts (the kind where you go bald by pulling the hairs from its roots):
1) The phone can browse the internet.
2) The laptop can connect to the phone and tell it to dial
But, I cannot browse the net on my laptop.
has anyone tried to successfully configured this set up before? Even with another SE phone?
