is it possible to do that?
I'm creating a project in vb6. The idea is to receive the webpage by the mobile (bluetooth) as a text file and show it through com4 port to a PC user. Mobile is connected with wire to a usb port so if it's possible to access it with usb port, that would be ok. However when I attach it to a PC it gives me these options:

  1. Mass Storage
  2. Pict Bridge
  3. Com Port

I don't know what option two is but the option one means simply connecting the memory to the computer. So it leaves the option three which is the com4. Here is the overview of the projects:

PC: a vb6 add in(IE) for connection management and web browsing. Can't use .net because of disk space.
MOBILE: a j2ME Midlet for receiving data and sending it to the PC. It's a china mobile with MTK2600 processor.

update: not sure if this is possible with RAS because i have never used it. here is the diagram for the system:

    win XP sp3 <-------> connected with serial port <--> bluetooth <---> win 7
       PC <--------------------> mobile device <------------------------> PC
     client <------------------> mediator <---------------------------> server

  • Erm, it sounds like you just want to use the device as a modem, in which case, look at the dialup/RAS config in Windows. No need for a browser addin... – Deanna Jan 26 '12 at 11:14

  • RAS works only with physical connection to a network while i have no physical connection. the real connection is by bluetooth. – jim Jan 26 '12 at 11:36
  • You can use a bluetooth device for RAS, it (normally) exposes a virtual COM port that has the same functionality as the COM port you see when connected direct to USB. – Deanna Jan 26 '12 at 12:28
  • so the pc is the RAS? or any pc that tries to communicate to the pc is RAS? what about the device in the middle? should it support this? – jim Jan 26 '12 at 12:35
  • No, RAS is a concept. The phone (over both USB and bluetooth) is the "modem" that the PC uses to connect. If this is not your question, you may need to rewrite it so the intent is much clearer. – Deanna Jan 26 '12 at 12:39
  • check the update. if that's possible with using RAS then let me know how to implement it. thanks. – jim Jan 26 '12 at 13:25
