Telephone number : I´ve reed something about *99#

Username: ?

Password: ?

Presumably you have accessed this Nokia resource?

http://mea.nokia.com/support/download-software/device-as-a-modem/how-to/use-your-nokia-device-as-a-m... It's probably simpler if you set up as Bluetooth modem from Mac "Set up Bluetooth device" as it interrogates device for what services are available.

Re: Use as modem C7 > Mac

Is there a Symbian Anna guide...this one is for S60.

Found this:
http://mea.nokia.com/support/product-support/c7-00/user-guide?ccf_name=nokia-c7-00/guide/GUID-AAB871...
But it's not very descriptive, to say the least:
Conn. PC to net — Connect your device to a compatible computer, and use the device as a wireless modem. The computer connects to the internet automatically.
Anyone have any luck?

Looks like you have to use the Ovi suite mode...not the modem mode, will be testing this shortly
