Well, guess I need to correct something that I just said regarding that modem string. For, in playing around a bit, guess I didn't need it on my other devices, either.
Now, for just connecting and dialing without doing anything extra, I do indeed need that string for my other devices. However, when I couldn't connect to the PK via Bluetooth without going into the connection settings and entering the access point, well, I decided to try that on my other devices, meaning delete the modem string but enter the access point before trying to connect. And, when I did that, just like with the PK, I didn't need that extra modem dialing string. Hope that made at least some sense. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Bishop" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, December 04, 2004 11:26 PM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] finally some success with cell phone and PK Vicky, Thanks for posting this and also for all your detective work. It's very much appreciated. Glad to see success, and hopefully with a little fine tuning, you'll get it to work consistently.

Well, I was already connecting that way with the slower speed, but not with the GPRS. But, finally, I'm connecting that way as well. Actually, it doesn't seem to work every single time, but I can keep working with the settings and make it work. And, it has seemed to connect most times, when I go into the phone and enter/confirm the access point I am using for GPRS first before trying to connect. Keep in mind that I know very little about all this, and am just getting info from Cingular and the web to try and help me figure it out. But, in the end, even though I needed the extra modem string for my laptop, as well as for my other note taker, I didn't need it for the PK after all. Also, for that matter, while I needed to go in to menu/settings/connection/gprs on the 6620 and enter an access point for the PK, I didn't need to do that for the other devices I used. Also, grin, I haven't gotten a bill for this month yet, so can't tell you for sure how much what will cost. But, for the moment, anyway, I have both the more expensive data connect plan to use my cell phone with other devices, as well as the less expensive plan set up for receiving data on the phone. But, I have limits on both of the amount of data I am allowed to receive without paying more; and, if I've figured correctly, I am close on the phone, and maybe have a little more data I can use with connecting to other devices. And, maybe in another month or so, I'll know what plan will work best for me. Oh, as a point of information, here is where I got the info about the access point to use, as well as the idea to try connecting without the modem string: http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:DKoNx8U_adwJ:www.idmonsters.com/files/DeviceAndSoftwareSettings.pdf+ispda%40cingular&hl=en ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.pulsedata.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
