I saw a discussion on connecting to internet through PC w/ BT, using Mocha PPP. I have downloaded Mocha PPP, however every time I try to connect to the network, my TT has a message of connection "timeout" (It won't connect). I have disabled hotsync using serial like the instruction document I downloaded from palmgoddess website, and also configured the Mocha PPP to use the virtual serial of the BT. Can anybody give me a clearer step by step guide to set up my TT and Mocha PPP?

Here are the steps to setup BT net access with your windows PC and Tungsten T*:

This assumes that you have already configured your bluetooth adapter, and paired devices, etc.

Confirm your Bluetooth adapter is configured properly
Confirm your Bluetooth software is providing serial access on a COM port
Confirm you have paired your Tungsten with your PC
Download and install the Mocha PPP software from: Mochasoft.dk
Go to the configuration of Mocha PPP, set device to Windows CE, Serial Port to whatever port is configured in your Bluetooth software, and Baud rate to 115200. Click OK. Note that you may need to deactivate or move Hotsync to another port before setting up Mocha if you are currently BT syncing that way.
On your Palm, make a new connection. Connect to: PC, Via: Bluetooth, Device: your PC's bluetooth name.
Under network, make a new service. User name/Password blank, Connection: [the connection name you created above].
You are now ready to go! Hit connect, and start surfing wirelessly!

I followed the instructions, which are pretty simple, and Mocha PPP and my Palm m505 are working perfectly together. I hope it still works fine when I get my T|T on Monday or Tuesday.

After setting the rest of the BT services to manual, I finally get the mocha PPP to run with my TT.

I am using win XP pro, Palm TT, and bluetake usb BT dongle.
