Ok, so i've read the "Configuring Internet On BlackBerry (HTML, Chat, IM, MSN, AIM, telnet, SSH, IRC, etc)" thread and lots of others regarding HTML access on a t-mobile blackberry plan. My blackberry SIM works fine for full GPRS in a treo and an Ipaq. I also can get full html (crappy browser but it does technically work) on my nokia 6230. but- I cannot get online via bluetooth when that same SIM tethering to my laptop. Anybody have any ideas? maybe i should make my own internet settings in teh nokia 6230 but using the blackberry's access point (does anybody know what that is?).
It doesnt work using the wap.voicestream.com, internet2.voicestream.com or internet3.voicestream.com access points with no luck. It will get as far as registering on the network but then says (on the nokia) "register to GPRS first" which is the same error message one gets with the correct internet plan for tethering (t-mobile internet or VPN internet) but using the wrong access point....

Currently, none of the BB devices allow BT connectivity for transfering data between a device and the BB. That requires the device to support a specific BT profile and BB does not support either the profile for synching nor the one for using the device as a modem.

hey, I understand what you're saying but thats not what i asked... I need to know the accesspoint that t-mobile uses for blackberries.
