Ok so im moving soon and the new house is 12hours away...I dont want to be stuk sitting there doing nothing the whole time... The solution... Bluetooth


Ok So basicly I have a bluetooth enabled phone from Verizon wireless.... Samsung SCH-u740 and it can act as a modem for a pc if you have a bluetootha dapter.

like this one

I got mine from walmart for 20 dollars and I can also use a bluetooth headset on teamspeak to talk to people wireless.

Few easy steps to set this up
1. Pick a ISP I use a free one called DialinFree. It is suppost to be for Michigan but I use it in Florida.

2. Create a account and get the dial in number

3. Install bluetooth drivers on computer

4. Plug in bluetooth

5. Connect phone with bluetooth by setting phone to discovery mode and having the computer find it. My computer had  a auto setup wizzard that was a huge help. It asked me what I would like to setup to use the device for. Make sure you select Bluetooth Modem.

6. Right click the modem in My bluetooth places and click connect.

7. Put in your account name password and dial in number

8. Click connect and your good to go

*note* This may cost you airtime so I suggest doing it on weekends when you have unlimited minutes

Not all of us have unlimited minutes on weekends but if you have the modem type plan thing (ask the sales rep.) you can get it unlimited . But if you dont have unlimited long distance then you will still be charged.... unless you live in michigan or near another free dial up number lol.

99% of cell phones have free nights and weekends...and most of those have unlimited long distance...so boom there you go

99%? are you shittin me?

ya unless its some prepaid shit

ok 70 % of all contract phones may be like that

there is some offers in which distance matters,if you want to go with some talktime scheme,then both are should be in same network area.
means one of then should be not in roming mode or in other state.

wireless internet is already available right? using usbs? why don't you just get one, that would much safer and easier to use. compare deals and get the one that is much cheaper with a much faster speed.
