Thanks for such quick response!

In fact I am somewhat of a novice in these matters.
I didn't find any info on the setup for the nokia modem on the cd.

However I could be mistaken, because it's a long time since I looked at it.

I recently managed to make the lap and the phone "see" each other, at least I could start an infrared talk btw them.

I can't remember how I did it but I know at least that communication between them is possible. I just have to be able to make the phone react as a modem.

In theory, how is this supposed to work ? Do you open a new connection, similar as you were phoning through phoneline, click connect, activate ir on phone, and then dial the phone numer for my ISP provider, and the phone starts to call ??

Well, as you can see, I'm a little lost in this, however I'll try to locate the nokia modem installer on the cd and it propably should almost take care of it self. at least it should be that way.
