The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problems Using Cell Phone For Bluetooth Tethering for Internet access on PC

Asked by matrix0511 in Bluetooth, Cellular Phones & Carriers, Handheld and PDA Programming

Tags: Bluetooth, Tethering, Bluetooth configuration, HTC Fuze, Internet Sharing

I have an HTC (AT&T) Fuze cell phone. I am trying to use it as a modem to tether it for internet access using my laptop. I can use my USB cable and plug one end to the cell phone and the other to laptop and connect using Internet sharing just fine.  I can also pair with my cell phone with success. Furthermore i can also connect to via Active Synch USING BLUETOOTH connection with success. This is what has me so frustrated. I can do all that even using my bluethooth on my phone to use active synch (NOT USB), but when i try to cennect to "network access" via bluetooth it failes. This is what i try to do to connect via bluetooth:

What I do is on my cell phone i pull up "Internet Sharing" app. In the "PC Connection" field i select "Bluetooth PAN". Then click "connect". Then on the laptop, I pull up "My Bluetooth Places". After pairing with device i highlight my cell phone and right-click and select: "Connect Network Access Point". But after about a few seconds i get the following error message EVERY time:

The Network Access connection failed: No local Bluetooth device was detected
extremely frustrating! what makes it more frustrating is a while back i was actually able to get the bluetooth Tethering to work. But hasn't worked now for about 8 months! PLEASE HELP!!!
