using bluetooth enabled phone for Internet?

[Keyboard Ninja]

I live in a apartment nearcampus now, and I decided not to get my phone service hooked up. The reason is because I'm with AT&T cellular, so I figured I didn't need a home phone. Anyways I don't have internet access now, but I was curious to know if I could use a Linksys USB Bluetooth adapter ( http://www.linksys.com/products/pro...cid=38&prid=581 ) on my desktop to connect to my cell phone. I was hoping to use it as a link to access my dial up internet service.

Anyone have any ideas if this will work? I was only planning on using it at nights when I have free nights and weekend minutes.

I think my brother mentioned something to me the other day about with some cell phone services you can get a cable that attaches to a labtop and it feeds off of the signal of your cell phone for something like 20 bucks a month or some crap...

If someone has a wirless connection set up near you, you could probably feed of of their connection.

yeah, if ur phone has the option for an internet connection, itll work. just get the cable/software and ull be set. (just be weary that it uses minutes).

u could also try to tap a wireless connection at ur complex, but that's proved difficult for me cuz of the insanely thick brick walls
