I know I dial #777 with no username or password, but I get error 692, basically hardware failure error. I was able to pair with no problem and create the connection without a problem, it recognized the phone as a modem. Just don't know why. I do have pcs vision, and it going at the same time.
thanks for any help, I hope I didn't waste my money on this phone after selling my other phone on ebay already

Edit: I have found on other forums that its possible, but I am having trouble doing this. It has another option for modem besides bluetooth, but the bluetooth options are different.

First make sure that you can access vision services using the phone's built-in browser.
You can't have any apps running on the phone during a BT connection so the phone should be on the home screen when you want to dialup. #777 works for me flawlessly. Have you tried rebooting the phone? One of the quirks of the T608 is that bluetooth sometimes stops responding and you need to power cycle it.

thanks man, I took it off of modem ability, and cycled the phone and got nothing. I went to add a blue tooth device, and I knew the device and service. It asked me if I wanted to have to dial up connections and I said yes, and I dialed onto the new I made instantly. Maybe one of the dialing rules when I set it up this way got in the way, but I don't know what. It did cut off and on a couple times, but at least I got it working. Now I got to try my phonecontrol
