hey all, looking for a little tech help. I'm trying to use my phone to dial up to the web on my laptop.

ok, so I get a window pop up titled "connect nokia N900 USB Modem (OTA)"

I'm supposed to enter the following info:

Username

Password

dial

any idea what info I'm supposed to input here?

thanks

This depends entirely on your mobile operator, the number itself is often *99# then with the username and password you use to access your operator's data service.
Alternatively if you just use ovi suite to use the device as a modem (note that for me at least, this only ever works via bluetooth, not using the cable) it has a list of loads of operators worldwide and will preset all the connection info for you.

thanks nidO

Get Joikuspot Lite from the internet. It is free and turns your phone into a modem. Says it needs 3g but I have got good service from lower reception. Go to their website (put in Joikuspot Lite), enter your phone model from a list and then enter your mobile phone number including international code, UK code is +44. They will text you back the software and then you can install it. I cant remember if you take the 0 off at the beginning of your mobile number after +44 or not but try both ways until you get the text back. Works great and is simple to use.
