[link] 2006-11-24T14:41:13 Sprint Treo 650 bluetooth DUN notes:

http://www.newt.com/debian/treo650.html is the best page about doing bluetooth hotsync and DUN with a sprint treo 650. The main trap on hotsync is that if you disobey and put in a hostname along with the host ip address, various things will stop working. Use "tcpdump -i ppp0" after ppp connects to debug. Also, treo camera pictures don't backup with "pilot-xfer -b .". I'm not sure how to make those backup, but you probably put them on an SD card anyway.

The DUN section of that page is for t-mobile, and I use sprint. My /etc/chatscripts/sprint is like this:

TIMEOUT 3
ABORT ERROR
ABORT BUSY
ABORT VOICE
ABORT "NO CARRIER"
ABORT "NO DIALTONE"
ABORT "NO DIAL TONE"
ABORT "NO ANSWER"
"" "ATZ"
"" "AT&FH0L3"
OK-AT-OK "ATDP#777"
TIMEOUT 75
CONNECT

The first timeout is small because the first AT command always times out for me, and the connection seems to work fine. On ubuntu, my /etc/ppp/peers/sprint starts with "/dev/rfcomm1".

I use 'pon sprint' to start the dialing instead of ifup.
