Enabling "network" is enough to get your PC connect over BT to N900 using PAN (and well, bluetooth manager on my Linux box reports success). But to use that connection, it is not enough. N900 should set up PAN network interface, and enable dhcp over that, as well as IP forwarding. In that case, network connection will be shared over PAN and (potentially) it will be possible for several devices to "tether" that way, using N900 as BT gateway. Practically, it is not apparent to establish, and BT bandwidth is limited anyway, so for similar usage profile WIFI hotspot mode serves better; and BT DUN (using package available for Fremantle) in usual tethering case. hth -Vitaly > Let's make the page better, if it has incorrect information on it.

How can I share a network connection from my cellular device (N900 or other) with other devices over Bluetooth from Maemo 4 and Maemo 5 devices? Let's make the page better, if it has incorrect information on it. I'm no bluetooth expert, but I know how to click an "Edit page" link.

I think maemo-pan is in the Maemo4 (diablo) repository. I don't recommend using that repository on Maemo5 (fremantle) though if you don't exactly know what you are doing. andre -- Andre Klapper (maemo.org bugmaster) ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

Certainly, I agree, but that doesn't help me setting up Bluetooth PAN. ;) There it says, one must install the maemo-pan package, but there is no maemo-pan package, neither in the preinstalled catalogs nor in the three extra repositories.

Re: Bluetooth PAN on N900
Hi Andre, For me, the best Bluetooth PAN page is http://wiki.maemo.org/Bluetooth_PAN If http://wiki.maemo.org/Fremantle_Unsupported_Bluetooth_profiles#PAN contains some more up-to-date information, it should be integrated into the "Bluetooth PAN" page. And if Maemo PC Connectivity provides an easier/better way to do it, then it also should be documented in "Bluetooth PAN". Looking at the pages, "Bluetooth PAN" says at the top that it's specifically for using the device as a PAN client to use another device's network connection, which the "Unsupported bluetooth profiles" page mentions bluetoothd, which is the server-side of the equation. So if you want to connect your N900 to another device to get on the internet, then follow "Bluetoth PAN", and if you want to allow other devices to share your N900's network connection, enable bluetoothd and add network to main.conf (I think). Cheers, Dave.
