    • 1). Turn on your phone and go to the main menu. Go to the BlueTooth menu and turn it on. Click on "Make Phone Discoverable."

    • 2). Boot up your computer and go to the "Control Panel" and click on "Add BlueTooth Device." Follow the instructions of the Bluetooth Installation Wizard. You will come to a window that lists all "Discoverable" devices in the area. Find your Nokia E61 in the window, highlight it and click "Next."

    • 3). Type in the security code for the phone. If you haven't changed it, the default is usually "000" or "888." Click "OK" and "Finished."

    • 4). Click on the Start Menu on your PC. Go to "Network," then "Network and Dial-up Connection." At the top it will say "Network and Sharing Center"; click on it. On the left side, click on "Set Up a Connection or Network."

    • 5). Select "Set Up a Dial-up Connection." Type in a user name and password. You will need to get these from your cell phone service.

      Cingular/AT&T: *99***2# or *99# (try both). 

      Verizon: #777 

      Sprint: #777 

    • 7). Name the connection. Call it something easy to remember, like "Nokia E61," and click "Save."

    • 8). Click on the connection icon and click the dial tab. Wait for about 30 seconds. Your phone will establish a connection to the Internet. When the connection is complete, open up the Web browser and surf normally.
