Network Access
The Bluetooth Network Access application makes it possible for this computer:
• To connect to a Local Area Network (LAN) using the physical connection on a remote
Bluetooth device.
• To connect to an ad hoc network provided by a remote Bluetooth device. When joining
an ad hoc network, it can take up to one minute after the connection is established
to obtain an IP address and automatically self-configure.
The type of network connection that is available is determined by the configuration of the
remote Bluetooth device.

Bluetooth Serial Port
The Bluetooth Serial Port application allows this computer to establish a wireless serial
connection with a remote Bluetooth device.

and receive data to and from the respective communications port (COM port) assigned
to the Bluetooth serial port. The wireless serial connection may then be used by the
applications as though a physical serial cable connected the devices.
