Connecting your Nokia N-Gage device to

your PC
1. Ensure that a Bluetooth card is inserted into the PC Card slot of your computer,
and that the Bluetooth software is installed.
2. Activate the Bluetooth connection in your phone. Go to Menu, open the Tools
folder and select Bluetooth. If you are using Bluetooth for the first time, you are
asked to give a Bluetooth name to your phone. Write a name (max. 30 letters) or
use the default name 'Nokia N-Gage'. Then select Bluetooth On.
3. Activate DUN or FAX profile in the Bluetooth software. After this, activate
Bluetooth device discovery from the Bluetooth software. For information on how
to do these tasks, refer to the user documentation of the Bluetooth software.
4. If you are connecting your Nokia N-Gage device to your PC using a Bluetooth
connection for the first time, you need to pair the devices. To pair the devices you
need to enter a passcode to both devices. Create your own passcode (1-16
characters long, numeric) and enter the same passcode to both the phone and the
PC when requested. This passcode is used only once and you do not need to
memorise it. For further information, refer to the Nokia N-Gage Game Deck User's
Guide.

automatically during the setup.

Selecting your phone as a modem

You can use your phone with a variety of commercially available data and fax
communications applications. When configuring a data or fax application, you must
select your phone, Nokia N-Gage (Bluetooth), as the modem.
Note: Since Bluetooth devices communicate using radio waves, your phone
and the other Bluetooth device do not need to be in line of sight. The two
devices only need to be within a maximum of 10 metres of each other,
although the connection can be subject to interference from obstructions
such as walls or from other electronic devices.There may be restrictions on
using Bluetooth devices. Check with your local authorities.
