Title: Irda Connection To Mobile Phone
Post by: Ovi on September 26, 2006, 06:22:02 am

Hi
I have a zaurus SLA-300 and a Nokia 6021i phone (with O2 as carrier). I want to use my phone as a modem in order to get internet access. On my network setting on zaurus I have the option for IrDA connection to phone/modem but the initialization always fails. Does anyone have experience with this sort of connection? Any O2 Germany users using their phones with the zaurus?

I'm still working on muy setup, (password/id issues) but there is some useful info on getting the phe and the Z to talk on the ceel phone ir beta3 thread in pdaxrom forums.

This was the first issue I had, many years ago. There is an option to produce debug info from the chat script, though I can't for the life of me remember where that is now.

My issue eventually boiled down to the fact that the pap-secrets file was being filled in, but not the chap-secrets (or vice versa).
