Wireless Connectivity
Using your device as a modem
This phone allows you to use it as a modem.
To do this, you create a Bluetooth modem connection on your device and then send
information to the phone by using Bluetooth. The phone relays the information wirelessly and
then sends back to your device any information that you had requested over the connection.
Once you create a modem connection to the Bluetooth phone, you can reuse it whenever you
want to use the phone as a modem.
1. Ensure that your phones’ Bluetooth radios are turned on, and that your device and the
other device are within 10 meters of one another.

3. Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections > Add a new modem
connection.
4. Enter a name for the connection.
