Could be wrong on this but from what I've read in these forums 156 is EDGE speed, and a pretty good one based on my own experience with T-MO. Mine ranges between 85/175

Well, I got my N800 last night and decided to give this a try now. Pairing is being a little weird as it's showing they're connected, but I can't see any files or anything on the T509 from the N800, even though I know they're there and it shows the folders that contain files (Images, Sounds, Videos). Internet isn't working either with it but I also have the $59.99 family plan. This was more just for fun and sort of a just-in-case type of thing, nothing serious. I'll keep playing with it and see if I can get anything going.

N800 & 770 both worked for DUN with my T-Mobile Internet ($19.99 plan) on my Nokia N73 phone right out of the box - the file browser works from either Internet Tablet to the phone also (as the 770 did previously with my Nokia 9300).

Do we know for sure this won't work? I know the Blackberry's don't "officially" support DUN, but I've been able to use this feature with my Pearl and my MacBook and MacBook Pro without any problem. Of course, I did have to download a modem script specifically for the Pearl, which may be why the N800 won't work. But what kind of error did you see?

On the t509 you actually have to go in to the File Manager and individually set the "Share for Bluetooth" in the options of the item.. such as an image in "My Pictures".

They will not show up until you do that...

Here's what my MacBook does to successfully connect to T-Mobile through the 8100 using this script http://www.fibble.org/BlackBerry%208100

Is there a similar log on the N800? I've searched all over for one.
I've tried setting the extra AT commands and playing with the APN and username settings, but to no avail. I've also manually edited the AT commands in this file:

/var/lib/gconf/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/T-Mobile@32@Internet/%gconf.xml

Hopefully someone else (more experienced than I) can try hacking away with all this info: http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/h...ity_guide.html

Yes, I got it working.

I first signed up with Tmobile Web and was able to ssh via port 8080 to my linux server at home. Unfortunately a week later my access was revoked and I could only web browse ( I couldn't tunnel through http or ssh). Alas, I subscribed to the $29/month plan and all is well.

Thanks for your help,

Here's a follow-up post. For some reason, I can no longer get online using my phone. When I select the T-mobile internet setting I was using successfully before, the connection manager says I'm connected and data is transferred and received. However, web pages won't ever load. I even tried deleting and re-entering the T-Mobile Internet connection to no avail.
Any idea why it stopped working?
Neil

Tmobile is doing some wacky stuff with port access to control what people are doing with the internet plans (and to close off the free internet people have been getting for a while). See howard forums for more details.

If you are buying a phone for use with TMobile, make sure it will support their longly delayed 3g network, as the Edge speeds are painfully slow and make me want to punch myself repeatedly in the face while loading pages.

I'm in the same boat as you. Just did an entire morning of web searching and have successfully gotten my 8100 to tether with my mac but havent had any success with the n800. I suspect the same thing you do, it could just be as easy as getting a specific modem script on the n800.
