To set up a laptop to connect to the Internet using a mobile phone, you can use the BlueTooth network. This saves you the hassle of wiring your phone to your mobile PC.
Instructions
Step 1
There are two prerequisites for the implementation of the task: the laptop has a BlueTooth adapter and the ability to use the phone as a modem. First, set up internet on your mobile phone. Make sure the connection is working.
Step 2
Install the correct drivers for your laptop's BlueTooth adapter. Sometimes, in order to use this channel to connect to the Internet, you need to have certain drivers. Now select the program with which you will synchronize your laptop with your mobile phone. It is better to use the utilities recommended by the manufacturer, such as PC Suite.
Step 3
Install this application on your laptop. Turn on the BlueTooth function on your phone. Make your device visible to other equipment. Open the control panel on your laptop and go to the "Network and Internet" menu. Select "Add a wireless device to the network". Wait for your mobile phone to appear in the list of available devices. Highlight the phone icon and click Next. Enter a simple password and re-enter it on your phone to accept the sync options.
Step 4
Launch PC Suite and open the Manage Connections menu after the utility detects your phone. Click the Settings button. Configure the settings for the menu that appears. Usually you need to specify a username, password and access point. Click the Save button.
Step 5
In the window that opens, click the "Connect" button and wait for the connection to the server. After gaining access to the Internet, simply minimize the program window. If you close the PC Suite utility, the Internet connection will be automatically disconnected. Check the battery level of your phone periodically to avoid unwanted shutdowns.
