There are instructions here - http://www.whizoo.com/bt_setup/ - that I have
followed successfully. But it depends very much on the bluetooth software
you have, which profiles are supported and how you have your network
configured. I had to change my router gateway address so that my laptop
(Windows) could provide ICS via my Bluetooth adapter to my wireless network
link.
Following the instructions was simple enough with my TDK PCMCIA Bluetooth
card but completely impossible to get working with my previous 3Com
Bluetooth card because the 3Com software sucks mightily, provides hardly any
Bluetooth profiles and the support from 3Com is complete and utter rubbish.
