Afternoon all, was wondering if anybody could help me, im on contract with 02 and as part of my contract i get the internet for free on my phone, ive installed the phone as a modem on my laptop, and it works, i can connect to the internet however i can only use msn, internet explorer simply says this page cannot be display for every website, ive tried firefox aswell but this has the same problem, could anybody tell me what i can do to be able to surf websites again? Thanks! Aaron

Hi

I have not tried it yet, but the link below may help you.

It turns your phone into a Wi Fi hotspot, then you conect to it via wifi.

It may be what you need.

Your contract might only entitle you to use the internet on the phone itself - not use it as a modem. And they may be using some sort of filtering/checking to block out access through laptops.

I use the N95 as a USB modem (on T-Mobile) with my laptop and have not encountered any such problems. Been straight onto web pages as well as if I was on a broadband connection.

If the above is not the case, I can highly recommend JoikuSpot (linked in the post above) to avoid the hassle of bluetooth connections (not the most reliable) or usb cables and still get internet through a phone to your laptop.

Thanks for the help, but im a little confused, the phone already has wifi on it and so does my laptop, would that application still be of any use to me? and would that mean i have to be in a wifi zone to use the internet? Thanks, Aaron
