DUN...AGAIN

somethingcivic

Aug 23, 2005, 11:21 AM
Any assistance in trying to get my 815 to do DUN? Thing is...I have a Mac Powerbook running 10.4.2. I have built in BT and an airport for my wireless network at home...but the BT DUN would come in handy elsewhere. Any suggestions on getting this thing to work on a Mac?

thanks.

OK this is actually pretty easy to do if you haven't already done so dial (##342587) this will enable the dialup feature. After this is done bond your phone to the mac. then create a new dial up connection. your user name is @vzw3g.com and password is vzw. dial #777. The only thing left to do is associate the connection with a modem. this was the hardest part if I remember I just kinda played around with the bluetooth modems listed and found one that worked. I remember it was a motorola one. Anyways I'm sure you can find one on the list. It took like 5 minutes for me to find one. I don't have a mac but I used this setup on a snowboard trip and my friends powerbook a few months ago so i know it works. I hope this helps and if you need ...

This works before the newest firmware. If someone would kindly show me how to enable DUN with the new firmware 8720_01.1E.00 I would most appreciate it.

You might the 8720_01.1E.00 firmware is new but not all stores are currently selling E815s with the firmware. According to VZW stores they should have the ability to flash this firmware sometime in mid march.. After writing my last post I tried to do the ##DIALUP and it didn't work.. anyone know what the story is with the new firmware.. is DUN blocked? or automaticly enabled now? Well when I get home tonight I'll try to connect via bt data connection and I'll report my findings tomorrow
