[QUOTE="IanCT, post: 60901, member: 6074"] [b]Got it working[/b] Thanks for the reply, actually it was something different. It's neither TCPIP or PPP, and not setup in Networking Prefs. I did some more digging and during the initial Bluetooth setup I selected "Use Phonenumbers from my own ISP", instead of GPRS. I went to AT&T's website and got the info to use, #99***11# for the phone number, blank username and password. Select Motorola iR TimePort(7089) for the modem type (and this is for any Motorola Bluetooth phone). After that I clicked Connect and I was up on line with a pretty decent speed. I tested my webmail account on my Exchange server, and brought up Google.com and it was fairly snappy. I disabled the Airport card just to make sure I wasn't on my own network. ;) It was pretty painless after I got the right info.
