hello
 
i just purchased a nokia n810 and receiving it tomorrow. I read some comments that it is hard to connect the n810 to a windows mobile 6.0 and higher because the blue tooth is bt pan and not dun.

is it still possible to connect the n810 to the phone? and oh ya my service provider is at&t with a Samsung blackjack II if that helps.

Welcome to the forums.

I'm not the person to ask about Bluetooth networking, but someone else is sure to have an answer for you.

download PDA net to your phone. that should work. if your phone has wifi you might also want to try wmwifirouter. there's also some hacks that will enable dun on blackjack but i don't have any links right now. i'm using a moto q9c with pdanet and it works perfectly, not the fastest speeds but it gets the job done.

The following page lists the HTC Touch HD as supporting Bluetooth DUN, and it's a Windows Mobile 6.1 device:

so it seems that Bluetooth DUN hasn't disappeared completely from WM devices.

WOW, thanks! after reading the first article i realized why bt pan is a lot better than dun. so i'll be using BT PAN from now on. even though connecting takes a few more steps i get more pros out of it.

As another solution to the first post, you can also install the application called maemo pan. it took a bit of fiddling around with the connections but with some research/trial&error i got it to work.
