Configure PDA for Bluetooth dial up

[Jigabyte]

Hi Peeps,

I have an o2 mobile and want to configure my PDA so it uses the mobile to connect to the internet but I don't know the settings for o2.

Any help

Cheers,

Jiggy!

Hi,
they should be set up already, but http://www.filesaveas.com/ has a list of all the carrier settings.

Is this what you mean, or are you trying to connect to the internet programmatically?

[Jigabyte]

Yes that was it; I found another site and have created a connection with works great. Do you know how in vb.net cf call the connection and close the connection. I am buying from software for FTPS and I need to open the connection first.

Cheer,

Jiggy!

Hi,

Public Function Connect_To_Default_Server() As Integer
 
        Dim Response As WebResponse = Nothing
        Dim Request As WebRequest
 
        Try
 
            ' Retrieve the requested page.
            Request = WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com")
            Response = Request.GetResponse
 
        Catch webex As WebException
            Connect_To_Default_Server = 1
        Catch ex As Exception
            Connect_To_Default_Server = 2
        Finally
            If Not Response Is Nothing Then
                Response.Close()
            End If
        End Try
 
 
 
    End Function

Should establish a connection for you. If you need to drop the connection, you need to look more at TAPI - opennetcf.org have a TAPI component

Thank you mate for that; I want to connect to an FTP server so I assume I should put the FTP address in and it should dial across bluetooth to my mobile and connect.

Hi,
this will establish the connection - you can then connect to your FTP server, as you will have a connection

Hi Mate,

It's been a while but I am at the stage where I am trying to use your example but it does not like webresponse or webrequest. Do I need to import something?

Thanks mate,

Jiggy!

Hi,
yes - system.web I would guess

Thanks mate, it was system.net!
