I've been researching this for over an hour and a half and have no more answers than when I started, so I figured that some tech-savy CPFer could help.
situation: I have my desktop computer and laptop sharing a wireless network and cable internet (the laptop has a removable WLAN card and B router manages the system). I recently upgraded my pocket PC PDA and since it's smaller and lighter than my old one, I have been using it more often.
Now that I've been using it more, constantly "docking" it hase become tiresome. My current model doesn't have bluetooth, but the next model higher (ipaq 1945) has it. I can buy a bluetooth SD card for mine for around $100 or I can spend the same amount and upgrade.
If I get the bluetooth, what do I need to add to my current wireless (non-bluetooth) system to share the network and internet? Would this attach to one of the computers or would this go onto the wireless router?
Also, a few months from now, I expect to be out of the house for quite a few weeks. I'd have my laptop hooked up to an ethernet connection while I'm at the hotel--is a networking card with bluetooth installed in the laptop possible or worth it?
Thanks guys /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif
