- | Personal Area Networking Profile of Bluetooth protocol allows you to connect your Maemo device via another device to another network such as the Internet.
| + | This allows you to use your Maemo device to use [[Bluetooth]] PAN to connect via another device to another network such as the Internet. |
| | | |
| The Connection manager is used for this purpose, exactly the same way as you connect to a WLAN network or to a cell phone dial-up connection ([[Bluetooth DUN]]). Most Windows Smartphones use this method of connection when used as a modem via Bluetooth. | | The Connection manager is used for this purpose, exactly the same way as you connect to a WLAN network or to a cell phone dial-up connection ([[Bluetooth DUN]]).

- | ===Sharing your connection over bluetooth [n900]===
| + | === Using PAN on older releases === |
- | | + | |
- | Using [http://maemo.org/packages/view/genwall genwall] for internet connection sharing over bluetooth, follow:([http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1454885&postcount=62 Linux]/[http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1454885&postcount=63 Windows]).
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Using udev to automatically setup internet connection sharing over bluetooth comes now.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | A kernel with iptables support is needed,
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | [[Kernel Power]] is the recommended way to achieve this. see [[Kernel Power]] for installation details.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | The default kernel with [[Community_SSU/Thumb|CSSU-thumb]] is also suitable.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | Install the ''iptables'' package:
| + | |
- | apt-get install iptables
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | create the following 2 files:
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | /etc/udev/rules.d/98-bnep0.rules:
| + | |
- | ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="bnep0", RUN+="/etc/udev/bluenet.sh"
| + | |
- | ACTION=="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="bnep0", RUN+="/etc/udev/bluenet.sh"
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | /etc/udev/bluenet.sh:
| + | |
- | #! /bin/sh
| + | |
- | if [ $ACTION = "add" ]; then
| + | |
- | echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
| + | |
- | iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING ! -o lo -j MASQUERADE
| + | |
- | ifconfig bnep0 192.168.3.1
| + | |
- | ifconfig bnep0 up
| + | |
- | /usr/sbin/dnsmasq -I lo -z -a 192.168.3.1 -F 192.168.3.64,192.168.3.127 -x /var/run/dnsmasq.pid.bnep0
| + | |
- | else
| + | |
- | iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING ! -o lo -j MASQUERADE
| + | |
- | if [ -f /var/run/dnsmasq.pid.bnep0 ]; then
| + | |
- | DNSMASQ_PID=`cat /var/run/dnsmasq.pid.bnep0`
| + | |
- | rm -f /var/run/dnsmasq.pid.bnep0
| + | |
- | kill $DNSMASQ_PID
| + | |
- | fi
| + | |
- | fi
| + | |
- | then set ''/etc/udev/bluenet.sh'' as executible:
| + | |
- | chmod +x /etc/udev/bluenet.sh
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | now whenever an authorised remote device makes a bluetooth pan (nap) connection iptables and dnsmasq are setup to allow that device access to the phones network.
| + | |
- | TODO: when no internet connection is active ask to set it up
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | === Using PAN on older maemo5 pr3 === | + | |

| It is possible to use PAN to share Internet connections via PAN between two Nokia devices. However, on older devices it is recommended to use [[Bluetooth DUN]] (dial-up networking), since this is the normal method which smartphones use to share Internet access over Bluetooth. | | It is possible to use PAN to share Internet connections via PAN between two Nokia devices.

- | == Bluetooth PANU ==
| |
- |
| |
- | PANU is a client role for the PAN profile. Here's the way how to make it work.
| |
- |
| |
- | Install bluez-test from SDK tools repository:
| |
- | echo 'deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/tools free non-free' >> /etc/apt/sources.list
| |
- | apt-get install bluez-test
| |
- |
| |
- | You may now remove or comment SDK repository:
| |
- | perl -pi -e 's,^(deb http://repository.maemo.org/ fremantle/tools .*)$,#\1,' /etc/apt/sources.list
| |
- |
| |
- | And now you can use your N900 device as a bluetooth networking client. Below are some commands.
| |
- |
| |
- | Connect to another bluetooth device that provides NAP service:
| |
- | pand -c <bdaddr>
| |
- | List connections:
| |
- | pand -l
| |
- | Remove connection:
| |
- | pand -k <bdaddr>
| |
