Using the Internet
Now that the ISP and phone set up is complete, when you use an
application that requires an Internet connection, the Red-M Blade
will automatically contact the mobile phone which will dial your
ISP and give you an Internet connection.
Note: If you subsequently change the network service selected
on the System, Prefs, Network screen (for example, if you
change to Bluetooth Bt LAN Access service that uses a LAN
Access Point on a corporate Bluetooth network), when you want
to connect to your mobile phone, you must reset the current
network service to the Bluetooth Dial-up service that you added
in the above procedure.
To end the Bluetooth session
To end the Bluetooth session and thereby terminate the mobile
phone call, do one of the following:
• switch off the Palm Vx.
•use the Disconnect option (if one exists) in whichever
application you are using.
•go to System, Prefs, Network and tap the Disconnect button.
