Also try software named gnuBox, it allows you to use the inbuilt apps with bluetooth internet, and allows you to pair the phone and the pc from the phone, no need to pair it from the pc. Just search gnubox on google;)

@ gardar,
Have you actually tried gnubox w/ your P910? I hope l'm wrong but I think this only works for series 60. It would be nice though if this works for the P910. I would love to be able to initiate a bluetooth connection with my PC from my P910. At present I can only initiate a bluetooth connection with my PC by going to the PC phone connection link > properties and selecting com8 (my bluetooth serial port)

Follows the following steps:-

1. put your BT doggle to pc
2. On your BT on P910i
3. Install the software from the BT doggle
4. click Bluetooth serial port
5. Search for the P910i
6. add it
7 you get connected with P910i using internet on your pc

*note
if you cannot pair try to click on port com 4, com 5, com 500 for bluetooth

Hope it helps ^_^

In my case, I just use the default Windows XP BTdriver. I remember when I did this the first time early this year, I installed the driver that goes with the billionton dongle. It was very problematic and I could not connect. I was so frustrated then. To my big surprise, when I unsinstalled the driver and forgot to remove the dongle, it just connected using the default PC driver. I didn't know this then that XP had it's own driver so I guess that's the reason for the conflict w/ the billionto driver.

Windos XP has drivers for most of the BT dongles out there. These BT dongle manuals always tell you to install the software first. Don't do it. Plug in the USB BT adapter directly into the USB port of your computer, and bingo, XP recognises it and everything should be fine. This is true for most adapters. Somr like Kingston doesn't have this luxury

If it weren't for bad lucks, I would have no lucks at all.
