Hi...I'm a new user and a beginner in the use of tablets.
Is there any way possible an Acer Iconia A100 tether internet via bluetooth from a Nokia C3? I've scoured the net high and low and can't find a thing! Can someone please explain to me what to do...if it's possible?
NOTE: There's no wifi available where I work, but my phone has an internet data plan. I've already paired my phone and Acer tab and on the tab it says "connected to device for internet access". :confused:

The Tablet is Android, the C3 is Symbian. You might need to find out how Nokia handles tethering and does your carrier allow it. Symbian had a couple of different ways to work with data. I had a C6. I just checked a couple of Symbian forums. You might have to download Joiku if Ovi Store will allow it.

Your tablet may be tethered to the phone but can't access the internet.

The phone needs to become an extension of your ISP's network - that is become a wireless router - so you need to provide a dummy internet ISP type setup. This seems similar to the setup I needed to create for my android phone. Query your service provider for the settings - they should know how.

Unfortunately Symbian is a pain in the butt. I dumped my Nokia phone and bought an HTC EVO 3D instead.

Just think back to my N97 mini, I believe there is a hotspot app available but it was not a free service - with some 3rd party. I know that I was not going dare money on that.
