Re: windows 10 nokia n900 serious problem

i didnt read all of it just the thread title makes me shiver.

Re: windows 10 nokia n900 serious problem

"serious problem"?

Yes, windows 10 is a serious problem easy to solve. ;)

Re: windows 10 nokia n900 serious problem

Did you consider using 'qtmobilehotspot' application on your N900. It offers weakly secured wifi, but also networking via USB connection.

We can't help you much because the information that you are giving us leading to the conclusion that win10 is the problem. This is the only thing you changed and when you are doing it the same way like in 8.1 and you can proceed all configuring steps like before and only the connection is not working, then it would be better to contact a windows forum.

Or please address exactly your problem.

Device manager?? Do you see a modem or a network card??

You could also try with bt dun/(rfcomm,ppp), if you see there a modem make a dial up connection. Don't know if win10 supporting that.
However me personally would go with a lan connection (bt/wifi/usb), because the modem emulation phonatd of the N900 is not so great and the speed is totally different.

Re: windows 10 nokia n900 serious problem

So here the steps to use the usb modem in win7 without the pc suite/ovi app.

1. You have a nokia n900 usb modem in the device manager
2. Control Panel -> Network and Internet -> Network and Sharing Center -> setup a new connection or network -> set up a dial-up connection:

username and password from your provider.

Code:

Dial-up phone number:*99#

user name:internet

password: ****

3. Connect

If your ISP has an apn you could also try this:

dial-up phone number: *99***1#
and configure the usb modem in device manager:
properties->advanced

put following option:

Code:

+CGDCONT=1,"IP","internet.t-d1.de"

internet.t-d1.de would be the apn.

You crack me up, man. If you had followed the link, you would see the latest that Microsoft is offering up is 3.8.54.

It might not fix his problem, but in no way is the article "wrong"...

Sorry, you are right. I did not follow the link, I was put off by the word "latest". I know for a fact that the last time I tried, I had serious difficulties locating the Nokia Suite as ancient as 3.8. The Nokia web site was already down and all I could find on Microsoft was PC Suite 10 or something like that. I had to dig very deep to find 3.8.

I did some quick search now and it seems the situation has reversed. So I take back my statement.

don't forget the onboard widgetized flanger...
it needs to be reflabernated...
