    How do you connect your PC to the internet using your HSDPA or 3G phone?

    I have a sony ericson mobile phone that supports HSDPA.

    Using sun, globe or smart.

    TIA.

    I have two methods.

    First method (but currently not being used anymore) is using SUN's USB 3.5G modem.

    Second method is using bluetooth to wirelessly connect my mobile phone with my netbook. And then using Nokia's suite to connect to the internet using my phone's 3G connectivity (post-paid mobile phone account). i don't even have to remove my phone from my belt pouch to connect.

    P5/15 minutes using Globe.

    The advantage of my method is it minimizes the stuff I need to bring along normally. No need to bring any additional cables or usb dongles (expcially if your portable PC has bluetooth built-in).

    The disadvantage is it drains my mobile phone's battery if I use it too long.

    Internet Connection sharing using bluetooth or USB cable on my i780 (Windows Mobile). I prefer the latter as the cable also serves as a charger for the phone. Using Smart consumable postpaid.

    You need to install the application for Internet Connection of the Ericson, then follow the wizard.

    ^^^^ I installed the sony ericson pc suite and there's a connect to the internet option, but it won't connect. It's telling me to configure the phone first.

    Do I need to change any phone settings that I will need from smart/globe/sun.

    Kung Globe prepaid ka , this is the settings sa phone.
    1. Punta ka sa settings ng phone mo.
    2. Configure the connectivity settings.
    3. Connection : myGlobe INET
    4. APN : http.globe.com.ph
    5. Data Bearer : Packet Data

    Kung di m o makita:
    1. Go to messaging.
    2. Type: GO SE(Model ng SE phone)
    ex. GO SEK750
    3. Send to 2951

    Magre-reply sayo ang globe, i-save o lang yung settings.
