| + | ====== PPP over Bluetooth to Nokia E61i From Mac OSX ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | It is possible to link a Nokia E61 to a Mac/Windows or Linux box using PPP over Bluetooth. There are lots of tutorials on the net, however I could not get any of them to work, So this is the procedure I used. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Required Stuff ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * GNUBOX s60v3 | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | NOTE: I had problems accessing the main GnuBox site, but after a quick google I managed to find the {{gnubox.zip}} file and did a self-sign using https:// | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== First: configure the Phone ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Under Tools > Settings > Connection on the phone, creating a new " | ||
| + | * Connection name: Bt | ||
| + | * Data bearer: Data Call | ||
| + | * Dial-up Number: 123 | ||
| + | * User name: abc | ||
| + | * Prompt password: No | ||
| + | * Password: Leave as the default | ||
| + | * Authentication: | ||
| + | * Homepage: None | ||
| + | * Data call type: Analogue | ||
| + | * Max. data speed: Automatic | ||
| + | * Advanced Settings: | ||
| + | * IPv4: | ||
| + | * Phone IP address: automatic | ||
| + | * DNS Address: My local DNS server | ||
| + | * Use login script: No | ||
| + | - Start GNUBOX | ||
| + | - Options > create records. NOTE: each time you edit the Bt Access Point profile, you will need to re-create records. | ||
| + | - Exit GnuBox. GnuBox needs to be restarted after creating records. | ||
| + | - Restart GNUBOX, the windows should now be almost full with lines of text. | ||
| + | - Make sure the peer Bluetooth Device is detectable | ||
| + | - 2box Bluetooth > Serial port | ||
| + | - The box should show the BlueTooth peer that you want to connect to, select it. | ||
| + | - For "Do you want to require encryption?" | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Second: configure the bluetooth PPP server ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | I am peering the Nokia E61i to a Mac OSX 10.4.11. I found that I could use the standard Bluetooth-PDA-Sync Bluetooth serial device. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The following command starts PPP in no-detach mode and debug enabled so you can see it working. It assigns the Nokia E61 the IP address 192.168.0.2 and uses 192.168.0.1 for its end. | ||
| + | |||
| + | < | ||
| + | sudo / | ||
| + | </ | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== Third: bring up the PPP link ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | - In GnuBox, select Debug > Bring up IF | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | And the PPP link should now be running. | ||
