The problem of mobile phone unable to connect with PC is not that mRouter doesn’t see the ports. The problem is that it looks for an OPEN connection, but doesn’t try to open the connection itself. So here’s what I did:

1. In mRouter, check the boxes for both your serial-out bluetooth port and serial-in bluetooth port. Ignore any “application in use” errors.

2. Open PCSuite. Even though it says there is nothing connected, click OK.

3. In PCSuite, choose the “change device” (maybe its “select device”?) option from the menu. Click refresh in the dialog.

4. Check in your bluetooth software to see if it is trying to open a connection to the phone. If it is, just let it, and when it connects, pcsuite will realize that, and you can select the phone from the “change device” dialog.

5. If the software is not trying to open a connection, open up mRouter’s port configuration thingy again. De-check the box for your serial out port. Then, check it again and ignore any errors. Then, in PCSuite (which you didn’t close), again hit “choose device.”

About 10 or 15 seconds later, I always get a good connection.

Nokia PC suite seems to install the connection manager which seems to get in the way of mrouter. Mrouter runtime BTW is in C:\Program Files\Intuwave\Shared\mRouterRunTime, for those of you that find running a second copy successful which I did not. I am however having the name your phone properly contest here on my laptop.
PC Suiet does not take any kind of name. I can connect to mrouter successfully via BT or infrared. Just can not get PC Suiet to take any naming convention. Getting ready to call my local voodoo dr to help on this one. Also tried loading Oxygen for Symbian and no luck with that one either. Any help is appreciated either connecting PCS or another app that you find working with the phone.
