Thanks for the good news and your work. I have managed to use by Qtek 
S200 running WM 6.1 Internet Sharing service (NAP profile). It has 
worked just out of the box.

The only newbie problem I had is what to specify in -d argument. NetBSD 
examples specifying adapter name there, while FreeBSD does not accepts 
this. I have spent some time looking for my adapter BDADDR.

PS: I have one small indirectly related, annoying problem. After some 
time of being unused Qtek goes to some kind of sleep, which makes it not 
responding on BT requests (both rfcomm and btpand), reporting "No route 
to host". After several retries or just by running l2ping and waiting 
for 3-5 seconds it successfully wakes up and working, but it makes using 
it a bit annoying. Is there any known workaround for it?

PPS: Thanks again!
