from Gonuts4free.com using your mobile phone. Please note that this is a random guide using a random mobile telephone to give a simple overview on the necesary steps that need to be undertaken in order to establish the connection. All users who wish to setup the connection using a mobile phone will need to review with the hardware manufacturer and check that the unit supports internet connectivity via either of the below methods.

This guide will explain all the necesary setup steps using the following items:
- Laptop computer with free available USB ports and Windows XP
- Nokia 6230 Model
- USB Cable (model DKU-2)
Note: Using a USB cable is the most reliable option. Bluetooth is another big preference for many users, but this guide will focus on using the cable option. If you have a different mobile phone, then please visit the manufacturers web site to install the necesary drivers.
