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 [Image: d-link-dbt-120-usb.jpg]

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 hadĀ  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
so its the exact same thing as the cell phone hack/mod you just wanted to post it in both categories
notice its a quote Wink

But in any event it does work because thats what im on right now Big GrinBig GrinBig Grin
