The easiest thing to do is to use the bluetooth manager to establish an ActiveSync connection to your computer via bluetooth.... and bang! you've got internet!

First of all, it helps to have ActiveSync installed (which I hope you do).
Go to Tools-Options in ActiveSync (on Windows that is), and select the last tab, and choose 'The Internet' as the Pass Through method.

Also, I'm assuming you have all your drivers etc. installed on your computer with the ActiveSync service enabled for your USB Adapter.

On the PPC, turn Bluetooth on, go to the Bluetooth manager and create a new ActiveSync connection by going to New-Connect.
It's all straightforward as you just follow the wizard.

Once that's done, connect through the ActiveSync Connection and you should be able to access the net.
