Using N73 as modem via infrared

Hi,
I'am trying to set-up a configuration to use my N73 as modem via infrared (iRDA).
I followed the instruction provided with PC Suite but it didn't worked.
One thing is that the "N73 iRDA modem" choice doesn't appear in the modem list (I can see N72, N93, E60 and E61 but not N73).
Is there anybody around that succeded in the set-up of such configuration ?
Thanks for your help
Emmanuel

Hi Manta,
Thanks for your feed back.
I have PC Suite 6.81 installed and I get the following error message :
"Network connection failed. Modem is used by another application or is misconfigured". (I translate from the french message I have on my screen).
When I click 'help' it says :
- I should deselected infrared from PC Suite (I did)
- There could be another application using the same port (I changed the port but got the same message)
- There is a problem with the modem driver (I installed Win WP SP2 on my laptop and reinstalled the modem nothing changed)
The infrared configuration is working fine with my 6310i, so...?
Thanks and regards
Emmanuel

  • Configuration for using N73 as modem with Infrared...

    Hi,
    Can someone from Nokia explain us how to set-up a configuration to use N73 as modem via infrared or Bluetooth.
    The N73 manual refers to PC Suite manual, I followed this manual step by step but at the end it doesn't work.
    One thing also is that E61 menu refers to a "Connectivity -> Modem" option that is not available on Nokia N73 ?
    I tried to set-up a packet connection but it doesn't worked either ?
    I use PC Suite 6.81 (the latest version) and XP SP2.
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Emmanuel

    Hi,
    Sorry for not coming back earlier.
    I contacted Nokia support in France but they never came back to me.
    The N73 user manual is saying to follow the PC Suite manual instruction :
    "Detailed installation instructions can be found in the user guide for Nokia PC Suite.
    Tip! When using Nokia PC Suite for the first time, to
    connect your device to a compatible PC and to use
    Nokia PC Suite, use the Get Connected wizard available
    in Nokia PC Suite."
    I used the mentioned wizard and I got PC Suite connected to the phone by Infrared ok.
    Then I disconnect PC Suite and use the "Internet connection" wizard I get the following error message :
    "Network connection failed - Modem is used by another application or is badly configured".
    As suggested by the on line help I tried the following option :
    - Make sure that PC Suite is disconnected before trying to connect (I did and it didn't worked)
    - I changed the port used by the connection (and nothing changed)
    - I re-installed the modem driver and I even installed SP2 on my configuration (nothing changed)
    Somebody mentionned to me that I might have to create a Packet data connection, I did it but again it didn't changed anything.
    I'am now almost sure there is an issue using N73 as modem with Infrared.
    Worse saying also that my actual laptop configuration is working fine with a 6310i and that my N73 is working fine as a modem when used with USB cable.
    One interesting point also is that there is in E61 a "Connection->Modem" menu option that apparently is not existing in N73.
    Any new idea welcome
    Thank you and best regards

  • Using iPhone as Modem via bluetooth within Win XP

    can any one help me configurating my PC settings getting iPhone working as Modem via Bluetooth within WinXP ...

    Does your XP computer support Bluetooth? Are you using a carrier that supports tethering (AT&T doesn't, for example)? If both of these questions were answered in the affirmative, you should be able to connect your iPhone to your PC either under Settings or in the "Add Bluetooth Device Wizard" on your computer. Also, ensure that tethering is enabled in your Settings app.

  • Using N95 as a Modem Via USB on O2UK Network

    Hi I am trying to connect to the internet with my laptop using the N95 as a modem via USB. I have tried a couple of different ways to do this. I've tried using the one touch access in Nokia PC suite and it gets up to the part where it says "verifying username and password" then says unable to establish a connection. I have also tried connecting from the "connect to" tab in the start menu on xp (also tried vista) and selecting my mobile as the modem through which to connect. I am an O2UK Customer and i have been told the user name and pass to use to connect is user=mobileweb and password=password. Im sure this is true because it does get past the verifying username and password bit when i do it this way. But when it gets to the "Registering your computer on the network" part it fails.
    What am i doing wrong. I have tried this in both GSM and UMTS mode.
    are there any other O2UK Customers who have managed to use their N95 as a modem? If so please can you post here and explain how i do it.
    Any help is greatly appreciatedMessage Edited by n95nooby on 29-Oct-200703:05 AM

    Do you have an IBM / Lenovo Laptop?
    I do and I checked the event logs and noticed failure 680 which indicated that no dial tone could be obtained (cable not plugged it) or similar symptom.
    I used to receive the error "one touch access failed to establish a network connection" using the Nokia PC Suite. I checked under start | settings | network connections and selected properties on the valid dial-up device. Then I noticed that the device was using the Internal Thinkpad modem instead of the Nokia. This explained the error 680 as the Thinkpad modem was not cabled to the phone line. After changing the connect using device from thinkpad to Nokia all worked well.
    Let me know if this helps.

  • I use to administrate my DSL modem via an ip-address. When I enter it into FF8 I am asked where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent FF8 from doing that?

    I use to administrate my DSL modem via an ip-address. When I enter it into FF8 I am asked where to save the file. Why and how can I prevent FF8 from doing that?
    And now anytime I am entering an ip-address I am asked if I want to download the file.

    It happens when the modem server doesn't send the file as text/html, but with another MIME type.<br />
    I tried the index.html addition in case the server might send that file as text/html.<br />
    If your DSL modem has a support website then you can try to ask there for advice about how to configure the modem server.

  • Till my last software update on my MacBook Air I have been able to use my iPhone as a modem via USB. Now it's not working anymore. Other functions via USB are still fine. Any ideas???

    Till my last software update on my MacBook Air I have been able to use my iPhone as a modem via USB. Now it's not working anymore. Other functions via USB are still fine. Any ideas???

    The Mac was recently upgraded so it is the Mac, or is it?
    Looking for a common denominator:  I'l start with wi-fi as the common communication medium.
    Known:
    A) Broken: iPhone —> wi-fi —> Mac.
    B) Broken: iPhone —>USB—> Mac.
    C) Broken: iPhone —> Bluetooth —> Mac.
    D) Working: Mac —> USB —> other USB devices.
    Unknowns:
    E) Test Mac —> wi-fi —> a non-iPhone router.
    F) Test iPhone —> wi-fi —> another wi-fi device.
    Given not A, not B and not C either the Mac or the iPhone could be the culprit.
    1) E        |  F        : Non sequitur (deepens the mystery).
    2) not E  |  F        : The Mac is the common denominator.
    3) E        |  not F  : The iPhone is the common denominator.
    4) not E  |  not F  : All heck broke loose.
    For case 1:  It would be something on the Mac that prevents it talking to the iPhone through three media even though it can talk to other routers over wi-fi.  That would be weird indeed, given the iPhone is talking to other wi-fi devices with no trouble. 
    For case 2:  All of the Mac’s intranet media broken (wi-fi, Bluetooth, and wired-USB) and at least wi-fi works on the iPhone.  Something weird is going on in the Mac.
    For case 3:  The iPhone router function is broken.  Upgrade the iOS?  Test using another iPhone?
    For case 4:  Throw everything in the trash and start over.

  • Airport Time Capsule 3TB can't connect to modem via ethernet

    Hi all,
    Thanks in advance for any assistance on this issue ...
    I am having extreme difficulty in connecting my Airport TC to my modem via ethernet.  Ideally, I want to use it to extend the range of my wifi, as well as back up my machines.
    I can't get the AP TC to add on to an existing network in initial set up as , even though the option is available, the Airport Utility (6.3.2) doesn't seem to keep it selected, and wants to create a new network.
    When I create the new network, my internet connection drops out, even though the modem indicates that it is connected.  I then edit the internet connection in AU by telling it to extend the existing network (add in the SSID etc) which picks up the internet connection again, but then the Airport TC drops out, and all I get is a blinking amber light and a message saying no configured Airport Base Stations detected, continuing to search.
    I have no doubt that it is something I am or am not doing.  I have soft, hard and Factory reset the TC, reset the modem, changed cables, pretty much everything my tiny brain can think of.
    I have looked through the support pages and follwed thier advice, with no luck.
    Help please.

    I  can't get the AP TC to add on to an existing network in initial set up as , even though the option is available, the Airport Utility (6.3.2) doesn't seem to keep it selected, and wants to create a new network.
    "Add" would be used for a wireless connection....and you indicate that you are using Ethernet to connect the existing modem/router and Time Capsule together....so the correct setup would be to create a new network using the exact same wireless network name and password as your existing network.
    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <--> ports on the current modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the Time Capsule.
    Here, I am assuming that the TC will be located at least a room or two away from your main wireless router. If it is located any closer, there will likely be wireless interference issues between the two routers. The wired connection between the modem/router and Time Capsule must be maintained.
    AirPort Utility will suggest a setup that looks somewhat like this.....except you will see a Time Capsule instead of an AirPort Express as illustrated below:
    Network Name would be the name of your existing wireless networik
    Base Station Name is a device name that you want to call your Time Capsule
    Password is the wireless password of your existing wireless network
    Verify confirms that password
    Click Next and the setup utility will auto configure things for you in a minute or two
    When you see the message indicating Setup Complete, click Done and you should have a green light on the TC.

  • I have trouble getting my new Apple TV 2 to work to the internet. I have an Imac with OsX 10.6.8 using a 3G modem to connect to the internet. I have a Time Capsule with Airport. I can't get the Apple TV to see my internet connection

    I have an Imac with OSX 10.6.8 dual intel core.
    Apple TV 2
    Timecapsule
    3G modem connected to iMac for internet access.
    I have tied to get Apple TV2 to see the inernet but it does not seem to see the inernet connection either via the Airport network or even if I connect it directly with a ethernet cable to the Timecapsule or the iMac.
    I have tired to set up Home Sharing but it doen't see the Itunes Store so no go.
    I don't have wired internet but it is probably something to do with using a 3G modem
    Any tips on how I can check if the TV coonect to internet and what to do about this problem?
    I was trying to connect my HD TV earlier using a WiFi USB modem but it could not see my iMac. Apple Support told me to buy an Apple TV but that is not helping as I can't see anything there either.
    Regards from Michael

    Thank you so much Paul_31 for your suggestions, HUGELY appreciate the effort
    I have reset the printing system, a few times for good measure but nadda.
    I have also looked at getting the software from the Apple site after seeing that with Snow Leopard you should let the operating system lead the install not the manufacteurers software as it is most likely out of date.  I too found it wasn't there so I uninstalled the software got up the CLX_3300 series stuff then went from there with the USB cable.  It apparently hasn't worked either
    Unfortunately now after using the print utility to scan for a while that has now gone again on the last restart of the Mac.  I am so completely clueless
    The box says the printer is compatible, the place of purchase said it was compatible, the Samsung site says it is compatible.
    I think it's the set up of my Mac? Our maybe a glitch in the network settings?
    Thanks again

  • Telephone will no longer let me use my PC modem to...

    Hi NO one at BT has been able to help me with this,
    OK explanation:
    For my work I still use the old modems to dial into remote machines (this caused problems explaning this to BT they kept on talking about my BB hub!). Using an internal modem in my laptop to dial out using the voice part of the BT line.
    You can here the tones of the numbers being dialled, it then handshakes with the modem on the remote machine then the signal just hangs.
    I have had my phone line for over 8 months. I have been able to use modem remote connect the whole time until last week.
    I completed a line check, came up clear. I then called BT. Line check clear. They said the only option is to have an Engineer sent out. Then I got told that it could cost me... etc.
    So booked an engineer then hung up. Got a call 30 mins later... ( during the 30 mins from hanging up I started to fault diagnose the lines in my house) then got told they had done another line check and it now shows a fault! Will it would I was using the line and fault finding on it!! They didn't tell me that they would do another line check.
    Anyway engineer came following day... guess what no lne issues in my house or outside. After 15 calls and 6 hours later I was getting no where on the phone.
    How can I get this looked into!?!?!? It seems the bandwidth on the voice part of the line can't take modem data anymore!
    I have tested my laptop, it works on my lines in 2 different offices it also works at a friends house and they are on BT.Line quality sounds fine on voice calls and BB never drops out.
    1. Why has this stopped?
    2. Why can't BT have a higher level of tech support?
    3. Why just cold transfer me to other departments?
    4. Why send out an engineer when there was no need for one?
    5. Why does the Tech guy I reported this to tell a blatant lie on the system on my records. "noise on phone line" I never said this!!!
    6. Who can I complain too? NO ONE!
    7. How can I get this resolved? NO ONE KNOWS
    All I want is the capability to dial out using pulse dialling via modem again! FROM MY OWN PROPERTY.
    CAN ANYONE AT BT HELP?????

    Welcome to this forum. This is a BT domestic customer to customer help forum, any messages posted here do not go to BT.
    Can you try the modem plugged directly into the master socket without any ADSL filters. You will lose your broadband connection during the test, but it will eliminate any problem with the BT Home hub, or the microfilter.
    ADSL does not start until 30kHz, which is well above the range that an analogue modem works at.

  • I have connected my time capsule to motorola SG6580 modem via ethernet.  I have a wireless network on the motorola and a wireless network from the time capsule.  I get duplicate IPs error messages sometimes. How do I fix?

    I have connected my time capsule to motorola SG6580 modem via ethernet.  I have a wireless network on the motorola and a wireless network from the time capsule.  I get duplicate IPs error messages (no connection) sometimes when trying to connect devices to the wireless network. How do I fix? Sometimes devices cannot connect to the network because of conflicting IPs.  I look on the Motorola and every device has a unique IP assigned but occasionally a device has taken the IP of another device.  I have been writing down all the devices and the IPs they have been using.  It happens more with PCs than Macs, ipads or iPhones.

    If the Time Capsule is set up correctly in bridge mode, then it is the responsibility of the Motorola modem/router to provide the correct IP address assignments for all devices on the network.
    Check to insure that the Time Capsule is correctly set up to operate in bridge mode as follows:
    On your Mac, open AirPort Utility
    Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Network tab at the top of the next window
    Insure that the setting for Router Mode is configured to read "Off (Bridge Mode)"
    Once you have confirmed that the Time Capsule is configured correctly, everything else is the responsibility of the Motorola modem/router as far as network routing and IP address assignments for devices.
    If you continue to have IP address issues, then you should contact the Internet Service Provider (ISP) that provided the Motorola device to you and ask them to fix the issue.

  • 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.

  • Possible to use TC as modem?

    Hello!
    I currently use a Thompson modem (3 years+ old) to connect via ADSL (by the  telephone line) to internet. I only use the TC as bridged backup device, connected via ethernet cable to the modem.  Is it possible to make a different setup and use the TC as primary modem?
    The upside of this is to take advantage of the better and/or faster wifi technology of the TC (dual wifi bands and what not) than my old modem.
    Thank you,
    Per

    You do need a modem for adsl.. there is no modem in the TC. But the modem is bridged.. you cannot plug a phone line into the TC.
    I should have been more specific.  You don't need a modem to dial into an ADSL account that uses PPPoE.  Put the modem in bridge mode and use the TC for the PPPoE connection and routing.
