Cell-Modem Internet access question

Post by Sir Games-A-Lot »

OK, I tried searching the net but all I can't find an answer to my question.




I have a cellphone that is bluetooth enabled. I also have a PPC that is bluetooth enabled. So far I can connect the two over bluetooth. One of the functions listed is dial-up Internet (there is also a dial up networking option). So here is what I want to do: Connect a PC at my house to both the analogue phone lines and to a cable modem, and some how be able to use the dialer I get when I go to the dial up functions on the PPC to connect to the PC at my house over the analogue lines and access the Internet service provided by the cable modem at reduced speeds on my Pocket PC.


Is this possible? Is there a guide any one can give me about doing this?

PS: The carrier is Cingular, I don't know the model of the phone however.

Yes, you can. This tutorial is for Linux, but if you search Google you can find more.
