net access - SL-5600/aircable/nokia 3650 SOS living in hell
« on: April 18, 2004, 09:55:53 pm »
:cry: I have a SL-5600 runninbg std rom with T-Mobil internet using a Nokia 3650 phone and an aircable. I have tried to get this thing to access the net for the past three (3) months. No dice Sharp, T-mobil and Aircable point at each other. Some peple claim to have this combination running, and if I get it going there is supposed to be a wifi patch for the phone. The phone accepts the bluetooth connection and asks authorization. The icon for connection at the bottom of the screen is X\'d over. and when opera is started an announcement block stating \'server not found\' comes up. I have tried using pppd by hiting \'?\' on bot before the 5th run level and selecting pppd, I also have commented out the auto serial respawn in initab. options is not implemented, I am starting to look at ip-up, etc.

Also, I have not been able to flash bios upgrade, some say it matters others ay it does not.

Excruciatingly frustrated, and amazed there isn\'t a better set up by all the vendors involved. How strange this is supposed to be a front line phone and Sharp has no support and wiped out their support web site, it took me some time to find this site, thank god.
