I bought a "Billionton" BT device from a shop in Sunway Pyramid for RM45. The device was supposed to be using CSR radio according to Billionton website. But when I went home and plug it in, it shows ISSC rclxub.gif

I have enough bad experiences with ISSC radios, but I didn't expect this.

I need to use it to pair a laptop to my Dopod 838Pro using WM6 Internet sharing (I've been stationed by my company to a very big and popular telco, and their network blocking my 1. IM which I need to talk to colleagues, 2. e-mail which I use to receive tasks from my superior, and 3. certain pages on Wikipedia that have been vandalized (the stupid thing blocking the edit button from coming out so I can revert). So I want to use my Dopod to bypass the network. But with the stupid lauya ISSC device, cannot (WM6 can only use bluetooth PAN to work as gatewaty, not act as serial port modem. I suspect that it's caused by the device's PAN being buggy, since it says MAC address is 11-11-11-11-11-11). The device is supposed to be model UBTB1.

Now I google again, found out that I have bought ciplak Billionton device.

Need advice. How to get Ori Billionton device? How much will it cost really? This device already cost me RM45, and stupid BT PAN cannot work.

Also, what can I do with this piece of junk? I cannot return it because I already broke off the antenna (which turns out to be placebo) in a fit of rage (ok, actually, I was using it to force a new tabletop air ionizer with a 2-pin plug into a 3-pin socket) and I doubt the shop will accept return since the device is technically "working".

Plz help. The stupid network at this place blocking me from e-mail, IM and a lot of webpages (stupid thing seizes up in such a way upon happening upon vandalized Wikipedia pages that the edit button will not show up).

you could always set up a proxy server from ur home pc and establish a SSL connection tongue.gif

or...

just try google-ing for UltraSurf / Broken Arrow (they're the same program, but go by different names)

EDIT : the program is for your laptop ... not the dopod smile.gif

My knowledge of BT only limited to software. I don't even know there was such things as fake Billionton dongles until I googled yesterday, and all these while I thought ISSC BT chips were legally licensed BT chips sweat.gif

> bro, try out https://www.gohidden.info
I dunno. I'm trying to stay ethical, hence I dun want to use proxy bypass program on their network.
