Alternatively, you could also use the PAN applet in the network config tool to do the same thing or
use my bluetooth-gui script.
Setting up a bluetooth Dialup connection
You can also use bluetooth to behave like a serial communication device. You can connect to other
devices such as computers via a serial line similar to an IrDA connection but with a wider range and
greater speed, or connect to a modem on a computer or mobile phone to dialup internet services.
Using the serial communication feature, you can emulate PPP and/or use OBEX for file transfer (the
IrDA beaming feature).
To setup bluetooth dialup service, for example, you can do the following to dial a GPRS on a mobile
phone. First create a config file under /etc/ppp/peers as follows:
/dev/rfcomm0
115200
connect '/usr/sbin/chat -s -v -t 60 ABORT "NO CARRIER" ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT "BUSY" "" "ATZ" OK "ATDP*99#" CONNECT'

remotename DUN1138428518
Make sure the remotename matches the id in
/home/zaurus/Applications/Network/modules/Bluetooth.conf
For the Telstra GPRS no username and password was required and the network settings were DHCP.
The only thing needed to be provided was the GPRS profile name which was telstra. The default dial
string of atz was sufficient with *99# as the number which tells the phone to use its local profile.
Additionally, *99***telstra.internet# could had been specified as well to choose a specific profile
during dialing.
Then do the following:
# su
# pppd file /etc/ppp/peers/yourconfig
Alternatively, you could also use the Bluetooth (DUN) applet in the network config tool to do the
same thing.
Setting up beaming with bluetooth via OBEX
You can use OBEX to push and receive files similar to IrDa but with bluetooth instead.
To transfer files towards the device, you have to install the package obexftp
[obextftp_0.10.7_arm.ipk]. To transfer a file, simply execute:
# obexftp -b 00:00:00:00:00:00 -p file.ext
The parameter -b instructs the program to use Bluetooth. If you omit the MAC address, obexftp will
scan for surrounding Bluetooth devices and select the transfer partner automatically provided your
device is visible and paired.
Alternatively, you can also use obextool:
