Nokia 6225 CDMA set up as modem ?

Hi Chris ,

I did this a year ago with my 6225 and my Sony laptop and it works a treat . As I am a computer halfwit it took quite a bit of doing .

I downloaded software from the Nokia website and then I contacted Telsra and I think I downloaded stuff from them too . I remember that Telstra were very helpful and talked me through the whole thing . Ring them up and tell them you are having trouble hooking up

A month or two ago I put my phone through the washing machine and thought I had buggered it all up but it made no difference - the setup , is all in the computer .

Good luck ,

Willie .

Hi ChrisO,

I too do this regularly, the trick is to make sure the port numbers are set "correctly". The PC does not like to share the phone with the Nokia software. If the Nokia software shows the 6225 as being connected, then the PC will not be able to use it as a modem. I set the port number on the Nokia software to something different than what it actually is, that way the Nokia software doesn't recognise the phone being present thus you can now use it to dial out.

Also, remember to set up on the phone to be able to use it for data calls.

I hope this makes sense as its a bit hit and miss to get it working, but once figured out works well, albeit not at fast broadband speeds as advertised (well, not for me anyway).

Cheers

I have a 2280. I had to go to the Nokia site to install it. It worked but not too well but when I got my phone bill I quickly disconnected it and went to an internet cafe

If you go to the settings in PC Suite and unclick all of your connections ie CABLE BLUETOOTH etc, it should work. Otherwise your PC will assume that the phone is in use. Good luck.

i have the same phone and will want to do the same thing....let me know how you go with it....
