Menu > Connect > Bluetooth® Connect Connecting your computer to the Internet via Bluetooth® You can use Bluetooth® to connect your computer (laptop, notepad or PC) to your phone without using any cables. Your phone acts as a modem. You can use it to connect your computer to the Internet for web browsing, sending and receiving e-mails and transferring files (FTP). Your Internet connection can be circuit switched (CSD) which gives a connection speed of up to 9.6 kbps or GPRS which gives a connection speed of up to 57.6 kbps. With GPRS you are usually only charged for the amount of data sent and received, not for the duration of the connection. Also, with GPRS, you can still make and receive voice calls while accessing the Internet, although the GPRS connection is suspended during the voice call. Note: To use CSD you must subscribe to your network operator's CSD service. To use GPRS you must subscribe to your network operator's GPRS service.
