The cellphone has Internet, and Bluetooth, I am wanting to put a Bluetooth
device on my cat5 router WAN output.
Then use data through the cellphone while I use the computer keyboard &
software that I have been familiar with.
Appreciate the help, I guess I haven't written clear enough what I have been
thinking of wanting to do.
Home computers (like everyone else in this thread are using) are lots easier to
use in my way of thinking.

I have lost two replies on two different days because I goofed up and tapped
outside of the writing window this phone has.
As You seen I am usually long winded while writing posts.

It is very frustrating when this phone switches from composing a post to show
something else because I goofed up hitting the screen somewhere else than where
I suppose to be tapping.
Still learning how to use it.

I may finally have to do that.
