I wanted to use Internet using my Sony Ericsson W595 Bluetooth Personal Area Network. It wasn’t that hard, here are the steps…
1. Install bluez-utils
sudo apt-get install bluez-utils
2. Enable the PAND in /etc/default/bluetooth and configure it to connect to your device.
PAND_ENABLED=1 PAND_OPTIONS="--role PANU --connect 00:25:E7:2B:E9:60"
3. Add the Bluetooth network interface in the /etc/network/interfaces
allow-hotplug bnep0 iface bnep0 inet dhcp
Your are ready to go, every time you start your computer it will automatically connect to the PAN, and you are on the net, wala…
