Customer Review: It works easily and an excellent price
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a Samsung BEAT cell phone. For a week or so, I had been trying to figure out how to use it as a modem to connect my PC to the internet. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get it to work using the phone's data cable. I noticed that Dial Up Network is listed as a Bluetooth feature on this phone, so I decided to give that a shot.
I went to Best Buy and the only USB Bluetooth adapter in stock was $39.99. I checked Amazon and decided to try this instead, since my order would be under $10 including shipping. I ordered on 07/13/2008, and the package was in my PO Box on 07/17/2008. I picked it up at about 4pm, and my PC was on the new Bluetooth DUN internet connection by 5:30. The only difficulties I ran into were configuring the setup do dial the correct number (#99* for me), and directing my web browser to use the TMobile proxy server address (216.155.165.50 port: 8080). Note: with TMobile, you also have to have their data package on your acount for this to work.
Using this adapter with the included software, I am also able to transfer files between my phone and computer. Other features are supported, but I have not used them.
As for the item itself, it is pretty small, so just be careful not to lose it. This shouldn't be a problem for me, since it just stays plugged into the back of the computer.
Overall, it's one of the best tech buys I've made in a long time. I can't give less than 5 stars because the ordering, shipping, and product performance have been flawless to this point. I will update this if any issues come up.
