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

[Amichai Rotman]

Sorry - no go...

Only Mass Storage mode works. Nothing happens on other modes.

I have a Nokia E71, which has a special USB mode - Connect PC to web -
which, on a Windows PC, would bring up a virtual CD-ROM containg the
GSM Modem driver to be installed in Windows...

Is there a config file somewhere I should edit so my phone gets recognized?

I manually added Orange as a Mobile Broadband network - but I can't
find the Connect button anywhere...

Any ides?

Thanks!
