    I've got a fix for the failure to start automatically and updated the script. Details on my blog.

    Great. Do you know how to connect the N900 with Windows 7 and use the 3G internet connection from the phone? Do I need any specific drivers or programs? With my Nokia 5800 and Windows 7 it was very easy. Just connect the phone via Bluetooth, go to the device control panel and click on "Connect". No program or additional driver was needed. Is it the same for the N900 with this script?

    Now it starts correctly but i still have issues in connecting.
    In windows7 i get error 734, PPP connection terminated.
    I'm using the same dial-up connection i use with n900 & usb cable.
    Any idea?

    DaSilva: once the script is running and device is pared, right click on n900 in bluetoooth devices, you will find dial-up or remote connection in contextual menu.
    I'm unsure how to set the dialup as it is not working for me...

    You are the Man!!!
    It is starting/working like charm for me too.(WinXP+PC Suite Drivers)


    (OT: I still have some issues with other tools - proftpd ftp server - trying to automatically start them on boot and maybe same cause applies there)

    Could you please suggest the best way to troubleshoot/monitor upstart execution?

    This is sort of going in the reverse direction.
    Does anyone have any experience tips on Bluetooth PAN between N900 and Windows 7?

    The 3G reception in the Office is rubbish and we don't have wireless, so I'm thinking that connecting to my office PC via bluetooth and then using its Internet connection might be the best thing.

    It started working for me too with Windows Vista after installing PC Suite, couldn't get it working before that. Works with Ubuntu&blueman without any tricks.

    I'll say it's ready for packaging as 'Bluetooth DUN support'

    Thank you, Philipl.

    As another poster mentioned, what are the chances of packaging it for us code idiots?

    I expect to have time to put a package together this weekend.

    I'm glad people are finding it useful!

    Packaging was easier than expected. It's now available from the extras-devel repository. I will be beginning the promotion process but for the impatient, you can turn on extras-devel to access it. Please take the warnings about this repository seriously and exercise caution over any packages you do install, including mine!

    quick comments:

    use XB-Maemo-Display-Name field
    use XB-Maemo-Icon-26 filed (48x48 icon)
    Use more user oriented description. Do not mention upstart script in description. It is Bluetooth DUN support, that people might even understand.
