  • Using Windows Mobile 6 and Internet Sharing with my Mac using Bluetooth

    I use verizon for mobile wireless so I don’t really have to do this, but I think it’s a good thing to know how to do.

    1. Enable “Network Connection” in the Internet Sharing program by editing the registry
      1. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\InternetSharing\settings]
      2. Set “AT&T ISP” to “Media NET”
    2. Pair Phone and Mac.
    3. Make Bluetooth LAN network connection on Mac
      1. After the Mac has found the phone and been paired, go to System Preferences -> Network
      2. Click the “+” to add a new service.  Choose Bluetooth Pan.
    4. Start Internet Sharing on Phone
      1. In the Internet Sharing application set:
        1. PC Connection to Bluetooth PAN
        2. Network Connection to MEdia Net
      2. Click Connect
    5. Connect to Bluetooth Pan Network on Mac
      1. On the Bluetooth icon in the Mac menu bar, find the phone,
      2. Choose Connect to Network
    6. You should now be connected to the internet.

    For a registry editor, I use Total Commander.
