Before you can use your device as a modem, you must do 
the following:

software on your PC.
• Subscribe to the appropriate network services from 
your service provider or Internet service provider.
• Have the appropriate drivers installed on your PC. 
You must install drivers for a connection through a 
compatible USB data cable, and you may need to 
install or update Bluetooth connectivity or infrared 
drivers.
To connect your device to a compatible PC using infrared, 
press the scroll key. Make sure that the infrared ports of 
your device and PC are directly facing each other, and that 
there are no obstructions between the devices. See 
‘Infrared connection’, p. 96
Note that you may not be able to use some of the other 
communication features, when the device is used as a 
modem.
Detailed installation instructions can be found in the user 
guide for Nokia PC Suite.
Tip! When using Nokia PC Suite for the first time, to 
connect your device to a compatible PC and to use
