Hi all -

I'm still needing help, although Thanks To Chris I have moved on just a 
touch!

Having uninstalled everything to do with PCSuite and reinstalled it, I have 
now been able to make a Bluetooth connection between my N91 and PCSuite. So 
now, when I have Bluetooth turned on, and I boot up the laptop, I no longer 
get the wizard popping up asking for a driver, hurray! What happens now, is 
that I get a message on the phone asking  me if I want to allow the laptop 
to connect, I press soft key one to accept, and then a few seconds later, I 
get the same message again, and when I press soft key one again, it seems to 
then be ok.

From here, I then tried to use the N91 as a modem, by going to 'Networking 
and Sharing' in 'Control Panel.' When I clicked on make new connection, and 
then 'dial up' I was shown 2 items, the first said "standard modem over 
Bluetooth button 6" and the second was the Motorola modem, this I understand 
to be the built in modem; my N91 wasn't listed. I clicked on the "standard 
over Bluetooth" and entered *99# for the phone number, the T-Mobile user 
name and connection name, and pressed the connect button; again, I got a 
message from my phone asking me if I wanted to allow a connection from the 
laptop, and I said yes. I could see with JFW that the laptop said "dialling 
T-Mobile" and below that on the screen was the message "registering your 
computer on the network" and eventually a message came up saying that the 
attempt had failed. When I clicked on the diagnose button, it told me 
"Windows did not find any problems with this computer's network connection."

One of the things that confuses me, is that when the phone flashes up that 
message asking if I want to allow the connection from the laptop, and I 
press key one to say yes, the phone then says connecting to laptop, 0 
percent, and that screen doesn't change!

 I guess I also need to understand why I couldn't see my N91 as a modem in 
that list that had the Motorola and that standard over Bluetooth[I'm 
uncertain as to what this latter actually means]

I also need to know if the above looks as if I've done everything right?

I'm bearing in mind that T-Mobile told me that because I'm on PAYG, I can 
not use my N91 as a modem, but as John Gallagher who is also on this basic 
contract is able too, and my experience when talking to network providers is 
that they don't always know what they are talking about, I'm still hopeful 
that I can get this to work!

Thanks for any further help -

Andy

| Ok Andy. In Programmes and Features, remove everything that is to do with
| PCSuite, such as Nokia Connectivity Cable Drivers, Nokia PCSuite, and PC
| Connectivity Solutions. Once they've all been removed, restart your PC and
| reinstall PCSuite. This should take care of the problem I hope! Good luck.
