Pocket PC to Phone via IR

MooMooFarm · #1 (**permalink**) 03-26-2003, 07:55 AM

I have a Nokia phone that I believe is the 3360, anyway it has a IR port and I was wondering if there was any way that I could connect it to my Pocket PC like the other guy did with the Bluetooth? Whenever I try to make a call to my ISP via my PPC Cingular disconnects me.. I was just wondering if there was a certain way that I needed to do it like with the Bluetooth.

Thanks

Hi,

Even I am trying to do the same. I would like to use Siemens SX56 that has a GPRS connection(using AT&T wireless) to be used as wireless modem for Dell Axim(via IrDA) to access internet. The attwireless link leads to Connection Manager software. Is this the software you are talking about? Could you elaborate whether the additional S/W shoud be installed on the phone or the PDA? Also if you can shed some details as to how to configure the PDA and the phone(for IRDA) to use the GPRS on the phone it would be really helpful.

Thanks,
Ram.

I have not done this myself, but, it sounds like you need to install the software on you ppc. Then enable the ir port on you mobile phone. Then go into the software on you ppc and have it manually find the modem/phone via ir.

Hope that straightens things out for u. Post if it didnt work, hell.....post if it does

In other words - - - keep us posted!!!- - -
