Hi Rob My tip to take away your pain is - use the USB cable. I was delighted to find my powerbook (G4 1.67GHz) recognised my Nokia E61 when I plugged it in. Make sure you select PC Suite when the phone asks you which mode to use. You will probably have to get Telstra to tell you the username or number to dial. I had 3 tell me. They will probably tell you Macs aren't supported but just get them to tell you the manual settings for a PC and fill those details in on your Mac. You will use Internet Connect to configure these details.
Hope that helps Regards Greg P.S. You should be using the 3G capabilities of the E61 (HSDPA or UMTS) not GPRS - this will give you 300kbps+ (I got up to about 460kbps) > From: Rob Findlay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Thu, 17 May 2007 16:45:08 +0800 > To: WAMUG Mailing List <wamug@wamug.org.au> > Subject: Using Phone as modem > > Anyone out there been through all the pain of setting up to use a mobile > phone's GPRS connection to access the net with your mac. > I'm trying to set it up with a Nokia E61 connected via Telstra and a > powerbook G4 and not quite sure where to start.
