Hello, I have just purchased an Anycom Bluetooth-Lan Access Poin
AP-2002. I am trying to access my wifi lan over Bluetooth from m
Orange Bt Windows Mobile Smartphone (SPV E-200) so that I can shar
internet access, files, activesync, use phone as a modem all from m
bedroom because I am disabled and have to spend a great deal of time i
bed. My Bluetooth PC doesn't have the range to reach my bedroom s
thought that I would set up an access point in the bedroom itself usin
my wireless network which is much stronger in the bedroom.
Just to be sure I have also put in the bedroom a wireless access poin
(an Apple Airport Express) which also has an ethernet input into it
into which I have placed the ethernet cable from the Bluetooth LA
access point
Can you guys tell me if this is what this kind of product can do?
tried the dlink version of this product but couldnt even change th
alpha password to numeric because Smartphones only allow numerica
input for passwords. At least with this one I have got further and bee
able to change the password
My phone sees and has bonded with the access point with no problems
However How Do I Actually Use the Access Point? What I mean is wha
program do I go into on my Smartphone in order to make use of th
Bluetooth to LAN access? I told you I'm pretty basic and a beginner a
all this.
My other questions are about which actual settings do I need to alte
bearing in mind what I want to do with my phone ie share interne
access, share files, activesync, use phone as a modem? What setting
for the following mentioned in the Anycom configuration web.:
1. Access Point Settings (will it still work even though the acces
point factory IP address is in a different range from my router i
172.16.220.51 compared to 192.168.0.1?),
2. LAN Access via PPP (LAP),
3. LAN Access via PAN (NAP) (DHCP is what I usually use but th
default is fixed?)?
4. PPP Authorization under security (is this my ISP user ID an
password?)
I have spent the last couple of weeks trying to e-mail and phone Anyco
themselves for support but have got nowhere hence I'm writing to thi
group in the hope that some of you gadget gurus out there might be abl
to help
Thanks again
Jami
