No we do not have any Mac support for modem connection as of this moment for L760.

At the moment it fully supports WinXP and Vista.

User requires Samsung PC Studio installed on his/her machine in order for L760 to be recognised and used as modem, via either data-cable and bluetooth.

As you can see from the :: Mobile Exciting!! - Samsung Fun Club :: link for PC Studio, there's only support for WinXP and Vista as of this moment.

You know what Adrian, Samsung people don't know their product well enough.

FYI I'm on my Macbook right now, running Mac OS X and I'm currently connected to the Internet VIA the 3G modem of the SGH-L760 using BlueTooth!

What the crap are Samsung people talking about la? Didn't even take me half an hour to get it working. Luckily I made effort to figure out.

Part of the time was figuring out how to get the Mac to talk to the phone. Part of the time was looking for driver and later on a slight confusion over the connection on my part. Eheh, pardon my blurness. I was testing the USB connection to Macbook as well but it somehow didn't detect the device.

Anyway back to the story...... yeah after a short test - voila!

Damn, with this DISCOVERY at least now SAMSUNG would realize it's actually usable even on Mac.

perhaps Samsung should hire me.

or at least give me a few more phones. haha.

Late nite speed test

Ahh it's good to know my Macbook finally has complete mobility!

Damn sucky connection also nmind. At least can kill time.

Adrian Wong · 15th Nov 2007, 01:07 AM

Ahh.. You have to go through Bluetooth la. That would be possible since Bluetooth is the intermediary medium. I think they are referring to the fact that you cannot use it as a 3G modem by hooking up to the USB port.

i doubt it.

sentence was clear enough, they were saying that it requires the PC Studio software to be able to establish connection (bluetooth / datacable)

When using bluetooth, it's basically not using anything Samsung proprietary to connect. Instead, it uses the OBEX standards for Modems and any bluetooth implementation, whether on PC/Max/Linux should detect and use the modem without any need to install any hardware specific drivers.

Samsung might just wanted to be cautious as Bluetooth implementations is kinda not standard sometimes depending on the implementor.

What they meant was to detect their specific phone as a modem using their specific drivers. So in this case, there's no Mac drivers yet. Thus their statement.

HOWEVER, they should have at least mention that you can still try and connect using OBEX. But i guess they are just afraid to support anything that's not within their control. Heh.
