To use the 8130 as a Bluetooth modem, turn on Bluetooth and go to System Preferences -> Network. Select "Bluetooth" in the left sidebar, and fill in the telephone number, password, and account name (#777, vzw, and
respectively if you are on Verizon). Check "Show status in menu bar" and click Apply. You will be able to connect using the modem icon at the top right, in your menu bar.[/QUOTE]
What is the "left sidebar" you are referring to?
I click on Network and I see what is listed below. All of this information is centered on window. There are 4 (four) tabs to choose from under Location and Show. Those are: PPP TCP/IP Proxies Bluetooth Modem The PPP is the highlighted one I'm referring to below.
The part in () confuses me a bit...can you please explain a little...
Also, which password is being asked for?
I have the network screen up as follows:
Location: Automatic
Show: Bluetooth
Service Provider: (blank)
Account name: (My name is Auto-Filled)
Password: (Auto-Filled)
Telephone Number: ######### (9 digits without any dashes, spaces etc.)
Alternate Number: (Blank)
Save Password is checked
I check "Apply Now" and then authenticate. I then click "Dial Now" and the Bluetooth screen pops up asking to "show modem status in menu bar". I then click "Connect"
I then receive a popup box that reads:
Internet Connect - A modem error occurred. Please verify your settings and try again.
Again, You have me confused by your (). thanx in advance
