Connecting to the Internet via Bluetooth and Orange (Partner) Cellular Network

If I remember correctly, that method only works with USB cable, not
via Bluetooth. If  you want to connect via bluetooth you will need to
pair your cellphone via command line tools (hcitool scan, rfcomm) and
use wvdial with your APN settings. If this works for you I can provide
details once I get home (got my wvdial.conf there). You can also
search the mailing list archive, people have done this already.

Good luck,
shay
