Hey guy's, hope you can help me out... or hope someone else had the same problem as me.

I have a HTC Tytn ii with WM6.1 installed. My laptop is a Dell Precision m65 running the normal windows bluetooth stack. I pair my laptop and phone, not issue. I run the internet sharing program on my phone and click the Bluetooth PAN connection, the phone establishes a 3G connection and everything looks fine. Then I go to 'Network Connections' on my laptop and connect the Bluetooth Pan Connection, it connects successfully.

Now... My internet connection should be shared right? Wrong!! Open a browser, but no connection... no internet...

Am I missing something?

Keeping in mind when I connect my phone via USB to the laptop and do internet sharing it works like a charm... only the Bluetooth PAN internet sahing giving me a problem...

Please help me :(
 
Found a way around the problem... Seems like it was the DHCP server that is a bit wonky on my phone... I manually set the IP on the phone and the laptop, making the phone the gateway. Seems to do the trick...
