RIM supports bluetooth DUN? |
Hey lenovo brother!
I just got a brand new t61 2.8 penryn stinkpad last week. I got it with a 7200rpm 160 gig drive...intel turbo memory, bluetooth, fingerprint reader, widescreen wxga+, 6 cell battery, intel abgn...etc.. I just upgraded the memory from 2 gigs to 4 last night... ohh and I am running Vista Ultimate x64... This thing is freaking screaming... btw... i got it through cpp for under 1,000 dollars with free 2 business day express shipping. Anyone interested can send me a private message. Anyone on to task.... I don't think you should have to suffer much further. I have been asked in the past to accomplish this same task at my job and the only way to do it is over a usb cable.... Just to prove it to you, have you tried a windows mobile device like a dash or htc device? Have you tried a nokia? these connect seamlessly over bluetooth and your able to use that device's internet over bluetooth. I have never gotten a blackberry to share internet over bluetooth... honestly I don't think it can handle it. My 8320 can't handle uma, bluetooth stereo headphones going into a telephone call. The second i accept the phone call it either drops or reboots the phone. |
the device handle bluetooth DUN....

Not at this time.

T61p, 8830 No Bluetooth connectivity to Desktop
Hi,
I can pair my BB8830 and my Thinkpad T61p running latest Vista Home just fine using the Bluetooth icon on my taskbar. However, the RIM Desktop S/W 4.3.0.17 does not recognize the pair. USB connectivity is fine. However, no BlueTooth. I try the Desktop Connection Settings to detect Bluethooth and no go. On My Vista Bluetooth devices, I only see the ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate loaded. I do NOT see any MSFT Bluetooth driver. Should I? What can I do so that I can get Bluetooth going? thanks, |
