Motorola Q tethering?
 

How do I tether a Verizon Motorola Q to my N800? I have the data package with the tethering option.

I had it working once via blue tooth the first night that Verizon enabled the additional data access on my phone, I suspect They sent an update (?) as I have never been able to make it work again. I had previously loaded the registry fix to enable DUN via BT, as Verizon was disabling this ability. I don't know at this point if the registry is still set to allow. Let us know if you are able to get it working. I'll post back also, If I figure it out.

The bluetooth stack on the moto q is funny and doesnt play well with the n800. Install PDAnet and you're all set.

I loaded PDAnet on my Q and paired my N800 with my Q and still no luck connecting. Can you provide details of how you got yours to work?:confused:

Thanks!! Installed PDAnet and got mine working too.

What did it take to get the N800 working with PDANet?
UName and PW in #777 DataCall or not?
I am still having trouble establishing a connect even with PDANet.

Have RePaired and reran the phone wizard etc.

RePaired and manually set up a dial up connection. Now PDANet on the Q is asking me to register. I haven't confirmed that this will work with South Florida Verizon as of yet.

Uninstalled PDANet from the handheld and reinstalled from my pc - standard install using Active Synch.
Confirmed that Motorola Q on Verizon with the Data Plan activated.
Note that my procedure involved doing the normal blueTooth Pairing and then manually setting up a new connection for Verizon with
DataCall

Sweet, the fact that Cell phone calls can be received during (rather interruption instead of no phone calls at all) a data call makes PDANet completely worth the price for me.

If you have the tethering option on your plan, you don't need a user/pass. I just leave mine blank and it works just fine.

I also left my username and password blank. With the Q and PDAnet I only saw speeds of 150 to 200 Kbps but with the KRZR I saw speeds of 470 to 520 Kbps.

I dont know what the reason is for the huge difference in speed between the phones. Maybe its due to the fact that the KRZR is bluetooth 2.0?? I also heard that with PDAnet you don't get an EVDO connection.. But I never looked into it.
