2.7.9 Dial-up Networking
The Bluetooth Dial-up Networking application allows this computer to use a modem
that is physically connected to a remote device to access the Internet or log on to a
remote network.
Open a connection to the Dial-up Networking service that is provided by another
Bluetooth device, following the instructions in “2.4.3 Creating a Connection” on
page 10.
After the Bluetooth dial-up networking connection is established, a virtual Bluetooth
modem will be installed on your computer and a Bluetooth Connection icon will
be added to Dial-up Connection group. You can double-click the icon to make the
connection.
The connection can be used the same way as any other networking connection.
For example, you can open a browser and explore the World Wide Web, if the
remote computer has Internet access.
To close a dial-up networking connection, just go to My Bluetooth Places,
right-click the service name and select Disconnect.
2.7.10 Network Access
The Bluetooth Network Access application allows this computer to join a Personal
Area Networking (PAN) or Local Area Network (LAN). The type of network
connection that is available is determined by the configuration of the remote
Bluetooth device.
Joining a Personal Area Networking (PAN)
PAN provides ad hoc network between Bluetooth devices. If a remote Bluetooth
device provides ad hoc network service, then you can connect to it by these steps:
1. Open My Bluetooth Places and discover the Network Access service
provided by the remote Bluetooth device. Then double-click the service to
make the connection.
