    I have done a search and came up with the following thread - it seems this may be possible, but having tried the settings in the thread I found it doesn't work.

    So, can I use my mobile (Motorola V3XX) as a Bluetooth modem for my laptop?
    What settings do I need to achieve this (I'm on three).

    BTW I have a successful BT connection between phone and laptop, and I am on a data plan from three.

    I have been able to do this using a v3xx over bluetooth alright, not using it anymore as I use a nokia e61 which although just a 3G (384K)phone, is far faster than the v3xx which is HSDPA (3.6M).
    I used the moto software, and picked o2 ireland in the connection settings then editing the access point to be 3ireland.ie.

    i also got it to work over bt with my mac mini, I found the modem script online.

    p.s. The only reason I got the v3xx was it was one of the cheapest contract phones on three at the time and one of the few that had hsdpa.
