Using 6300 as Wireless Modem

Heya guys, I own a Nokia 6300 with a working GPRS contract with TPG.
I want to somehow use my Nokia 6300 as a wireless modem so that my iPod Touch can use its internet so I can surf the web on a larger and better screen. Using bluetooth perhaps?
Is there any way I can do this?
Regards,
Josh

You can use the supplied USB cable to use your phone as a modem to connect your desktop or laptop to internet. There is an app for symbian devices called 'joikuspot' through which you can do wireless tethering. I haven't come across an application like, or itself, for non-symbian devices. So if you want wireless tethering better buy any latest symbian smartphone.

How to set up email, add apps, use web through wireless modem?

Hi,
Have a new 8310. OS is v4.5.0.37 Platform 2.7.0.55I'm in Australia, currently with Telstra but in the process of changing.
I have not purchased a data plan for the phone. I have a wireless modem for my desktop & wondering if I can use this to connect my phone to the web without purchasing data?
Do I need a data plan to send emails? Can I use my existing online email acct(yahoo), or do I need to set up a special one for the phone? If so, please explain where/how? If not, what other info do I need to configure the existing one? It seems I need a PIN as well as e-addy & password(& assuming it's the yahoo password?)
TIA

Yes. Basically, to do anything other than use the phone, you need a data plan. Period.

Yes...see the above reading material.

No...not required.

PIN...hmmm...there are many definitions for that acronym in the BB world. The most usual one is a unique identifier, much like an IP address or phone number, that is assigned at the factory to your BB. It is used to register your BB for various services (yes, via a data plan) so as to identify your BB on the network.
I hope that helps.

Sharing Internet via Airport Extreme using a USB wireless modem

I have had to go to NextG access using a USB modem (only option). We previously succesfully had the second iMac sharing the internet connection on an ethernet-connected wireless service. Now, I cannot get the other iMac to share the connection, because there is no option to choose the USB modem.
Another problem is the USB modem is top-dog - it won't connect unless I turned off anything else using anything remotely looking like wireless (even when I have my bluetooth phone connected to another USB hub). I can connect to the NextG network after disconnecting everything else and THEN reconnect, but I just can't get the Internet sharing going. I have also had the iMac freezing, demanding a power-off-power-on (unheard of in my experience!).
Is there any remedy for the Internet sharing at all? Configuring a different channel or something on Airport? Using one of the other config options?
I think there are something like USB-to-Ethernet adaptors (pretty costly here in Australia) and don't want to shell out for one if it doesn't work. Same with a third-party router. I also wondered if I should just forget about using Airport completely and run a few metres of crossover cable?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hi Steven, I know this question has been answered and is a couple of months old but I think you may be able to help with my set up? I have a Thomson speedtouch 510 v6 modem router provided by Karoo (UK). My other Belkin N modem router has just bust [again] so the Speedtouch is my old faithful backup device. Now, i've never been able to get on ichat with the Belkin as its a mimo n speed and this is apparently not compatible; So i'm now on ethernet with the st510 and have just set up ports for ichat thanks to a thread called http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2719419&#2719419.
What I want to know from you (because I really need a wireless router to get me off this ethernet support system and back on airport) is how you're getting on with the st510 / airport extreme combo now and can you use ichat on it? If so does your connection doctor say full cone in network settings or something else? As I say, I really want to use ichat and have never been able to in 3 years of owning my Macbook Pro. Hope to hear back from you Steven. Regards Steph

Can I use an airport extreme to extend the range of my wireless modem

Can I use an Airport Extreme to extend the range of my wireless modem?
At one end of my house I have a dual band wireless ADSL modem which provides my internet connection and I want to extend (improve) the wireless coverage to the other of the hosue where my Apple TV (2nd gen) is located. I have being trying to extend my wireless network with an Airport Extreme but so far without success. I can get the Airport to join the wireless network, but I suspect that it is only acting as another client and not actually extending the wireless range. There is a setting in the Airport configuration to "extend and existing network", however when I choose this option the Airport no longer connects to my existing wireless network and I am beginning to suspect that this fuction only works with another Apple device (Airport Extreme or Express).
Has anyone been able to extend the range of a third party wireless router / modem with an AirPort Extreme? If so, any advice that you can offer wold be appreciated.
Regards
Michael

Thanks Tesserax,
Your answer has confirmed my suspicions.
Option 1 from your suggested solutions is not a goer because the modem and Airport Extreme are in different parts of the house making it impractical to run a cable between the two devices.
I did try option 2 and bought a Netgear range extender, which according to Netgear it would work with my D-Link modem - not.
However I have managed to work around the problem (sort of) by using the Airport Extreme to create a wireless network between my iMac 27 and my Apple TV. The idea is that the iMac will act as a router between ethernet connected ADSL modem and the wirelessly connected Apple TV.
The good news is that I am now able to play the content from my iTunes library on my Apple TV without interruptions due to a poor wireless connection . Although the connection from the Apple TV to the internet is not working I think this is most likely just a configuration issue and for me it is not really a show stopper.

My computer is slow on the internet and even stops at times, i have 98mbps to the modem but only 20 mbps and sometimes less on a ping test- what is wrong? i am using a wireless connection do i need to upgrade my wireless modem in the mac?

my computer is very slow I have 98mbps to the modem but when i run a ping test on the machine i get 20 mbps and sometimes it is .10 mbps- do i need to upgrade my wireless modem on the machine? what can i do?

used speed test and got 20 mbps, tested the modem and got the 98mbps...something weird as my system just stops and will not load to sites like google and yahoo but will always respond to sites like CNN...does this mean anything?

Using iPhone3Gs as a broadband wireless modem

I read somewhere that it was possible to use the iPhone 3Gs as a broadband wireless modem for a notebook/laptop PC. Is this true, and can anyone verify that it works?
I am thinking about getting a 3Gs for myself and giving my 3G to my wife. But in order for that to be cost effective we have to get rid of her verizon phone and my broadband wireless card, both of which are with Verizon.

Tethering is not supported yet.
From AT&T's website:
" in the future, AT&T will offer tethering capability for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G."

Using iPhone as wireless 3g modem ? possible ?

I have the older iPhone, and am seriously considering a new 3g iPhone. However, I have read in some reviews that the new iPhone 3g canNOT be used as a wireless 3g modem to connect your MacBook Pro to the internet. I would ideally like to wirelessly (using the built-in wlan), connect my wlan MBP to the internet. If that cannot work, could I connect an iPhone using a wired usb connection to my laptop, and then connect to the internet ?
Thanks

This is not allowed right now.
(its called tethering - google for that)
Someone made an app-store app that did this, but apple yanked it. AT&T wants another $30 per month for a PC Data plan.
This may re-appear some day, because it is technically possible, just not currently allowed by Apple and ATT.

HT3546 can you use your wireless modem and a airport to extend wifi or do you need two airports?

please help

If you require a wireless connection, then you would need a second AirPort to accomplish this. The first AirPort would connect to the existing wireless modem via Ethernet. It would be configured as a bridge and also configured to be extended by the second AirPort. You can use any combination of 802.11n AirPort models for either of the AirPort to configure an extended network. Finally, you will want to disable the wireless radio in your wireless modem to prevent Wi-Fi interference between the two wireless networks.

Using Airport Extreme (802.11n) with Netgear Wireless Modem Router

I have a quick question, can I use the Airport Extreme in a wireless modem router?(http://www.netgear.co.uk/wirelessadslrouterdg834g.php)
By plugging the Airport into the Netgear router would I be able to by pass and run a network this way. I have a 802.11n enabled MacBook and Apple TV, the Netgear is the weakest link!!!
Many thanks.

neptune2000's post was implying that you connect the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) to the Netgear.
The AEBS does NOT contain a modem. Therefore you will need a modem, either the Netgear or another.

Using your Palm as a wireless Modem. :) (Rogers AT&T)

I have read a couple of times that it was possible to use the my treo us a wireless modem for my laptop..
Since Rogers recently started selling the Iphone, their $30 dataplan is now 6 gigs!! (up from the just 200 mb)..
I REALLY REALLY wanted to see if I could do this.. (surf the internet on my laptop wirelessly).
first I purchased a USB Bluetooth adapter. the Dlink DBT-122..
It took me hours to finally find out the secret on how to use the "dial up networking"..
"pairing" the laptop and my treo 680 worked fine.. the rest I had to guess and find on the internet.
1.) The phone number to dial was *999***1#
2.) the username was :"wapuser1".. (which I took from my palm in the PREFERENCES::NETWORK)
a password wasnt needed,

Hi @kams01,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I see that you are having some connection issues with your HP Officejet 8620 running on Windows 7. I am sorry for the frustration, but happy to help!
I would recommend going through these two guides:
'Printer is offline' Message Displays on the Computer and the Printer Does Not Print: Windows 7.
Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection.
Tips for troubleshooting wireless connection issues.
The following tips can help you troubleshoot and avoid wireless connectivity issues. You can try these tips separately or in combination to get a successful wireless signal.
Move the printer and the computer closer to the router, but no closer than 6 ft (1.8 m). Wireless signals can be weaker at greater distances between the printer and the router.
If you are experiencing an intermittent wireless connection, try restarting your router. Consult your router manufacturer, Internet service provider, or network administrator for instructions on how to restart the router.
Remove any metal objects between the printer, the computer, and the router. Objects such as refrigerators, microwaves, or metal bookcases can interfere with wireless transmission.
Move any device that emits radio signals, such as microwaves and cordless telephones, farther away from the printer. Such devices can interfere with wireless signals.
I would also visit this website, HP Wireless Printing Center - Troubleshooting Issues.
Hope this information is helpful, and thank you for posting!

Using iPhone as a Wireless Modem

I was in Europe and bought a USB 3G wireless modem to access my emails and data on my MAC. It was so simple, (and a small wireless USB enabled modem that worked flawlessly with my MacBook Pro). The product and data plan was about $100 Euros.
How cool would it be if we can plug our iPhones into our Mac Notebooks (with a USB connector) to access AT&T's networks and be productive while we are traveling whether is in the USA or abroad?
Are the iPhone teams working on such a USB connector? This would be ideal for road warriors.
Thoughts?

Tethering is not supported with the iPhone, and at&t has no unlimited data plan with a tethering option for the iPhone. If supported, this would likely cost at least $60/mo for such an unlimited data plan with a tethering option that likely wouldn't be unlimited for tethering based on at&t's current data plan that includes a tethering option.
