Maybe a simpler question would be how to send the packets through serial port instead of a network device?

any luck?

Hi Michael

Have a look at the thread here.

Edit: I assume that if I can get a wired connection going to my T68i, then I can use a serial Bluetooth profile to do the same thing wirelessly as well.

.   Hi, if you are using a bluetooth module I supose it is  through serial port on mbed, so first you need to configure the bluetooth module to connect with  android phone .

.  Refer to manual , there are some commands, first scan for bluetooth devices, than choose your android phone to connect. Once you are connected the bluetooth module acts as a transparent link from mbed serial and your android phone AT commands interface(you can do anything in the phone by this interface).

.  I also have a bluetooth module with serial interface, first I need to do a scan with  command ATF?  than it starts to scan , the mobile appears , than I can do  connect to my mobile with command ATA1 and it connects to my mobile(there is a default pin on module that you should input on your phone on the connection request), this is the manual connect mode, for automatic connection I use the mac adress of bluethooth of the phone to make the predifined connection device and it always connect to the phone automatic.

.   After connected I have direct access to AT commands interface on the fone, U can test it with command ATI (mobile information) or other to make sure the connection is OK. (Should be better to test it before you implement the code  with a  serial adapter to PC and use a serial program to communicate with the module to make tests first).

. Then after this step you can think about make a GPRS connection, I think you can use GPRSModuleNetIf class , I have not tested yet, but when I have time I will test it becase I am trying to use a GPRS module to have web access but it needs to do the PPP negotiation first

Not necessarily, I'm planning on using a USB dongle and the BlueUSB software.

That option will be valid too, but not sure how it works, the process should be the same as the serial connection, U need to have acess to the AT commands interface on bluethoot dongle to do the actions you want. It should emulate a COM port to the dongle to make the communication.

With a serial module its is realy simple to communicate with the module.

Any one have tried to have access to the AT command interface on a bluethooth usb dongle?
