    certain you could get precise of entry to the web by the Blackberry. once you connect the Blackberry on your pc, your pc can observe of the gadget as a modem. All you want to do is configure the blackberry like you've been configuring your modem. in the course of the configuration, there are some settings you pick to ask your service inclusive of APN (get precise of entry to point community) settings specially the APN website, username and password. each provider/service has its own APN settings so do ask your provider help for Blackberry for the information. I have used my Pearl as a modem before. yet in accordance to my journey, the speed isn't that quick because of the very undeniable actuality that it makes use of GPRS/aspect for its information connection unlike our known Broadband or DSL strains. Plus, utilizing the Blackberry as a modem might want to upload you extra information expenditures on your bill because the modem function doesn't use the compression technologies of the Blackberry not like the way we acquire our emails and when we flick by the Blackberry browser. desire this facilitates! =)

    I'm not sure exactly how to do it but usually with most phones you plug it into the computer via the USB connection cable, (some phones may require a driver install (e.g.// a cd)) but there should be a setting on the phone settings to change the connectivity setting to something like "data service" or something similar from "Mass Storage". Hope i could help.
