No You cannot use the Wi-fi on your laptop to connect to bluetooth. As someone else suggested, you can buy a USB adapter for your laptop and be able to transfer files that way. \n\nsearch for Bluetooth USB adapters. You can find some as cheap as $25.

You need to make your PC capable of bluetooth just like you have to make your PC wireless to use wireless router.\n\nJust get a bluetooth adapter for your PC and as soon as you plug it in, you will be able to communicate with your motorola.\nGo here:\nhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002WRGI0/104-1701409-7311150?v=glance&n=301185\n\nIts an example of what it looks like. You just plug it into your USB port. The software is downloadable on the internet or you can get it from Motorola.\n\nBluetooth headset works with your phone without wires. You just have to set your cell phone to connect with the bluetooth headset and you can use it immediately.

yes you can do that as long as the frequency is 802.11 b or g. almost all new laptops also have built in wireless and should pick up on your router

Wait... I'm a bit confused. Do you want to use wireless internet, or use your cell phone for dial up internet? For the first, wireless internet, you need a broadband service provider, a wireless router, and a wireless card for your pc. For the second, using your cell phone for dialup you need... oh hell I know there's a way to do this, but I only know it works with laptops, not pcs. It's complicated, but this site can explain, for laptops, anyhow: http://www.bmyers.com/public/938.cfm?sd=30 For a pc... honestly it would just be easier to get a phone jack installed in the basement.

wifi and bluetooth are totally different things and different technologies, although they are both 'wireless' technologies.\n\nthe chances of someone accessing your internet connection via the bluetooth on your laptop are incredibly slim, particularily since the data speed of bluetooth isn't very fast so browsing the internet via a bluetooth network connection isn't normally worth it.\n\nIF you have a wireless router with either a built in or connected modem then these are often open to abuse - especially if no security has been setup on them because anyone can connect to them wirelessly provided they're within the range of the router.\n\nIF you DO have a wireless router, you will need to read it's manual regarding enabling security settings. normally a wpa or wep should be set, and possibly mac address filtering too - these will stop just anyone using your router/internet connection.\n\nIF you DO NOT have a wireless router, it could be the case that your computer has been 'rooted' or otherwise compromised by a trojan which is allowing full access to your machine by an intruder. in this case you should disconnect from the internet and do a full virus scan to look for and remove trojans.

Are you sure your computer supports Bluetooth? It should have a special adapter built-in.

It may be true if you're on the Verizon network, but no, it's not correct.\n\nMany bluetooth devices can provide an internet connection to a bluetooth enabled laptop. In fact I know T-mobile carries one that is not made by Blackberry.

Most laptops come with wireless ability built in.\n\nSome public places have free and open wireless networks that you can connect to.  Some (such as your mom's house or a friend's house) have wireless networks that might require you to enter in a password before you can use them.

You need to 'pair' the devices. There should be a bluetooth icon in the system tray (bottom right corner) you can click or double click to get properties. Look for an option that says "discoverable". Then from the other machine find the 'device' and pair with it. Once you are paired you can send files. You may need to go between machines to allow the transfers in case a pop-up box comes up asking if you want to allow the transfer.

No, not all laptops or Computers have bluetooth. But ofcourse, you can get a small bluetooth device, which can be connected to your USB port (A small rectangular port in your laptop) .Many laptops and Desktops today though, come with bluetooth pre-integrated.Your laptop has it or not, can be checked by seeing all the programs on your computer.If its not coming in the Control Panel, most likely it wouldn't be there.\n\nThe bluetooth device, which has been mentioned above, as called bluetooth adaptor, can be purchased at any electronic market, or at any website like e-bay.Would cost you around 20 US $(Your local rates may vary) \n\nFor now, though, you must have got a Cable and some installable software with your phone ? You can connect the PC with that .I dont think your phone has infrared facility.

I am not sure I understand your question completely but I am still going to attempt to answer it. If your laptop has a wireless card, you can connect to the internet provided that \na. either you have a wireless router with wireless enabled.\nb. there is a wireless network in the vicinty of your laptop.

Unfortunately you can't use bluetooth to share your internet connection. Bluetooth uses a different technology not compatible with your network adapter.\n\nI would suggest using a Linksys Wireless G router and getting a USB wireless adapter for each PC. I have used it hundreds of times with clients and it works great.
