DUN is the primary method for tethering to cellular devices. It is easy to set up and easy to use, but slower than PAN in many cases.

PAN is faster and more versatile than DUN, though supported by fewer devices, and not officially supported in Maemo, but support is provided by the community package [http://garage.maemo.org/projects/maemo-pan maemo-pan]. PAN is particularly useful for setting up Bluetooth networks between your computer and your tablet.

=== Personal Area Network Client (PANU) ===

To initiate connection from [[Nokia N900]] you can follow these steps.
 +
 +
It is better to compile binaries in scratchbox. See [[Documentation/Maemo 5 Final SDK Installation]]
 +
 +
To be able to copy files from scratchbox to your N900 you should install rsync and make sure you can copy files to your phone.
 +
 +
Compile bluetooth stack utilities:
 +
apt-get source bluez
 +
apt-get build-dep bluez
 +
apt-get --build source bluez
 +
Copy pand binary to your device:
 +
rsync -av bluez-4.60/debian/bluez-test/usr/bin/pand n900:/usr/local/bin/
 +
Now you can use your N900 device as a NAP client. Below are some helpful commands.
 +
 +
Connect to another bluetooth device that provides NAP service:
 +
pand -nc <bdaddr>
 +
List connections:
 +
pand -l
 +
Remove connection:
 +
pand -k <bdaddr>
