interesting, there must be something I'm not doing. I've done very little with my n9 do far (don't want to have to flash it!) eg no inception and only networking and utilities installed on the developer mode screen. I've just tried app-get install pptp-client as per maemo thread 35961, but it errors couldn't find package (I did devel-su first).
I do have n9qt installed (am very impressed by schturman + co) but just minimal things selected (swype bubbles off, traffic/etc in drive, enlarge avatar, video zooming, couldn't get larger emoticons in messages as I don't have inception
my nexus is rooted now, and is 4.2.1 jb so I wonder if bluevpn doesn't like that....though it seems ppp widget gets the same problem with my n9, possibly pointing blame towards my n9s setup?
I'm sure in years gone by I could create debug logs in Linux for dial up connections to see what I'd got set wrong....is there a way to set debugging up on my n9 to debug the mobile data link to log file to somewhere? (my Linux is very rusty....slackware in the 90's was good fun!!)
maybe my uk Orange 3g connection needs me to use specific ap/uid/pwd when being called by a remote device (the nexus 7), I've set ap to orangeinternet to match the n9s settings, on n9 the ap uid/pwd are both blank....maybe I need something when using a remote app?
all help/comments very gratefully received! Thanks
BLueVPN works for me. I had to enter some info after i connected the two together by bluetooth. In BlueVPN i had to go to the Settings menu, tick the Bluetooth Insecure Socket box, have *99***1# in the home number box, and have "orangeinternet" in the Access point box. Authentication is left as "password authentication". Then i had to EXIT BLUEVPN, not minimise but EXIT using the exit button, and then run it again, and then connect them together. Now, it works every time.
If an app, like say the mumsnet app, wont use BlueVPN's net to connect, i can usually use Chrome to access the site, rather than using the app, and it'l work well enough - though Google play will only let you browse, not download anything.

Hope someone can advise.
Neither of the above solutions work for me. Not PPP and not BlueVPN. My Nexus 7 is rooted and have all the apps that are needed. It's running Android 4.2.2.
I tried it my wifes work phone (Iphone 4S) and it connects the Nexus 7 in seconds to infrastructure wifi, and I cannot even get OTG usb wire connection to work with my N9!!! The OTG works with drives etc, but not with the N9. OTG can't access the N9 64 gig memory at all.
PPP widget just reports modem port not found when I try to connect.
/Thanks

My Asus Transformer TF101 with Android 4.0.3 connects to Internet via N9 using both Bluetooth and WiFi ad-hoc.
Strange to see problems with another Asus tablet.

I got BlueVPN to work after a lot of experimenting. At least simple browsing and my email clients work. Pretty nice for what it is. Reminds me of Amiga500 hacking decades ago.... Still no luck with PPP.

Rebooted the phone, switched on BT on the phone. Rebooted the Nexus and turned wifi off and then turned BT on and waited a bit, then I ran BlueVPN. After several tries, had to use exit button in BlueVPN after each failure, it suddenly just worked. Been running the connection for 14 hours now.

If you want true bluetooth tethering, I have compiled an open mode kernel with the necessary NAT and MASQUERADE modules. You can download the kernel and modules from my other post: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=1329699
Then download the scripts from:
http://www.ctrl-h.net/nokia/harmattan/btpan/
I used a slightly modified version of the tether script posted by jschan from here:http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58570. This is the one I was using on N900.
Then I added some rules to udev for any bnep* device.
Added a slightly modified test-nap script (just changed the timeout to something like 11 days) as discovered by myself and madmo:
So here are the steps:
I have tethered both an iPod touch and Nexus 7 to my N9 and N950 at the same time. Works like a champ.

Ok, I got Bluetooth pan working on the n9.
After that I got pan working with the test-nap.py script from the bluez repo and the tether.sh script from another thread on maemo.org.
I have put all the files into this gist: https://gist.github.com/4133214
So here are the steps:
- Download my kernel and modules.
- Depmod the modules
- Flash the kernel.
- Untar the btpan scripts under /
- remove the "network" clause from DisablePlugins in /etc/bluetooth/main.conf
- Connect from other devices!
