Bluetooth GPRS via an A1200 and peoples.net

Published 2008-01-24 08:44:24

After quite a bit googling and guesswork, I finally got my portable to connect via my Motorola A1200 to peoples.net (unlimited GRPS). So here's the settings for reference (as most of the google results are not quite accurate).

for starters: /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf
(you need to find out your bluetooth id - plenty of results if you google "bt grps howto's" )

rfcomm0 {
        bind yes;
        device ***device id here **;
        channel 5;
        comment "Alans phone";
}

you need to configure pairing - I think this is the one that worked
/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf

options {
        autoinit yes;
        security user;
        pairing multi;
        passkey "**MAKE UP A PASSKEY ***";
}

And now for the magical stuff.. (the 0.0.0.0:10.0.0.1 was the magic bit that solved all the connection problems)
/etc/ppp/peers/peoples

debug
connect  "/usr/sbin/chat -v -f /etc/chatscripts/people-connect"
user "ptc"
password "ptc"
/dev/rfcomm0 115200
show-password
noipdefault
usepeerdns
defaultroute
noauth
0.0.0.0:10.0.0.1
ipcp-accept-local
ipcp-accept-remote
debug
kdebug 7
#nodeflate
novj
noccp

#remove if you want pon to run in the background
modem -detach

the chat script
/etc/chatscripts/peoples-connect

TIMEOUT 35
ECHO    ON
ABORT   '\nBUSY\r'
ABORT   '\nERROR\r'
ABORT   '\nNO ANSWER\r'
ABORT   '\nNO CARRIER\r'
ABORT   '\nNO DIALTONE\r'
ABORT   '\nRINGING\r\n\r\nRINGING\r'
'' ATZ
OK 'ATM1L1'
OK 'AT&f+cgdcont=1,"IP","peoples.net","",0,0'
OK 'ATDT*99***1#'
CONNECT ""

This is disconnect (not really used it, but might help...)
/etc/chatscripts/people-disconnect

SAY 'Starting GPRS disconnect script\n'
"" \K
"" +++ATH0

And hopefully when you do

#pon peoples

you get an internet connection from anywhere in Hong Kong..
