Network Access via Bluetooth

So I was up at my girlfriend's parent's house this past week, and her brother has added a bluetooth AP to the home network so that her younger can connect to the network and internet over bluetooth. It works great with his windows machine using the bluetooth as a nullmodem and connecting through PPP using dialup networking. I guess this is a nerdquest of mine, as I already have Airport Extreme on my PB, but it's bugging me that I can pair up with the bluetooth AP, but not connect to the internet through it. Anyone know if its possible to access the internet over bluetooth? By the way, its Belkin's new Bluetooth AP/Print Server that I'm dealing with. Thanks!
 
Yes, it is possible to access the Internet via BlueTooth. Go to System Preferences --> Network --> BlueTooth. The rest of the settings should be the same as for the Windows machine.
 
if you still have some questions left, try search. I remember some threads on this topic.
Good luck!
