What Window OS are you using? If it's Vista, you should be able to see an bluetooth icon (if activate) on the taskbar. Right click and choose 'open bluetooth settings', you should be able to see a pop-up window as photo below, you should able to see com port in one of the tab:






Goto Control panel, click on 'network and sharing center', on the left column, you should able to see ' set up a connection or network', click it, you should be able to see another pop-up window ' Connect to a network' as the photo below,



then choose 'connect to the internet', then follow the rest of steps as described in thread #1, it's straight forward and logic.

Hope it helps.

Consider pairing is complete and done

1. Double-click the Bluetooth icon at taskbar select BB under the Devices then click Properties.

2. In the device Properties window, go to the services tab and take down the COM number beside the Dial-up networking (DUN) field.

3. Create a new connection using the New Connection Wizard.
Click on Start -> Connect To -> Next
-> Set up a connection or network
-> Connect using a dial-up modem
-> Select the Standard modem with the COM which is same as COM number in Blackberry under Bluetooth device list -> properties under service tab!

4. Unselect others field -> Next -> Give a random ISP name -> Next -> leave the phone number field blank -> Next -> leave all user name and password blank -> Finish

5. Enter *99# in the Dial field

6. Go to Control Panel -> Phone and Modem Options -> Modems, select the modem with the COM number obtained in step 2
then go to Properties -> Advanced. In the Extra initialization commands field, input the following string then click OK: +CGDCONT=1,"IP","net" (can either be "net" or "unet")

7. Connect *connection name* windows click Dial, leaving the user and password field blank.

Please follow the step-by-step instruction, have installed the modem script for Mac? (Pls note the attached modem script is for BB Bold 9000, other BB model may not work, please google for the appropriate script)

As for Digi APN, please google or call your Digi Service Centre to find out.

Celcom RM 98 unlimited can download how much per month? Any Fair Usage Policy?

WOohoo! I successfully manage to get connected via Digi SmartPlan.
The trick is to change the "net" to "diginet" in Step 7.

Enjoy!

Hi idq2k3,

May I know which plan are you using from DIGI? I'm planning to get a data plan from telco to enable me to use my BB 9000 as modem. Digi does charge extra for tethering with PC rite?

Glad to hear that idq2k3 you did it

Different ISPs (Maxis, Celcom, Digi, etc) have different username and password, please check with them or google

hie guys, how about tethering via usb? any step by step guide in lowyat? thx.

Install Blackberry Desktop Manager, then follow the link below, I believe it's straight forward.

thx bro!

Thanks for sharing..

Hey guys I got an issue here..my gf's streamyx has gone down which I believe resulting from lighting strike,so I thought I might lend my gf my bb to tether awhile..so, I copy the desktop manager installer v.6 into my phone and attempted to install it after extract d folder.but however I managed to extraxt it,but unable to install it which comes out an error ..have you all know how to solve this problem??

Sigh spoiled my mood with the error

Did I read it correctly? The BDM (Blackberry Desktop Manager) is supposed to copy into your PC or Mac, then use USB to sync and check and install your OS, apps, contact, calendar, etc.

Is there anyway you can download again your BlackBerry Desktop Manager again? I suspect something wrong with the "exe" files you downloaded..

All is about BlackBerry.. Happy Birthday "auronthas"
