Together with a compatible computer, you can use your
device as a modem to connect to the web, for example.
Before you can use your device as a modem
• You need an appropriate data communications
software on your computer, such as Nokia PC Suite. For
more information, see the Nokia PC Suite guide.
• You must subscribe to the appropriate network services
from your service provider or internet service provider.
• You must have the appropriate drivers installed on your
computer. You must install drivers for the cable
connection, and you may need to install or update
Bluetooth or infrared drivers.
To connect the device to a compatible computer using
infrared, press the scroll key. Make sure the infrared ports
of the device and computer are directly facing each other
with no obstacles between them.
To connect your device to a computer using Bluetooth
wireless technology, initiate the connection from the
computer. To activate Bluetooth in your device, select
