How to Link Bluetooth Phones

The term "Bluetooth" describes a way to securely link two or more compatible devices together without having to use wires or cables. A Bluetooth link is strong and secure, which means that you'll rarely ever get any kind of interference and the signal will not be broken. While a Bluetooth connection is primarily used to connect a phone to a hands free headset, you can also connect two phones to each other using Bluetooth. This will enable the phones to send data to each other over the wireless connection.

Things You'll Need

• Two Bluetooth Compatible Cell Phones

Instructions

1. Make sure both phones you are attempting to connect to each other are Bluetooth compatible. Look at the users manual for each. The first few pages will list all of the technical specifications of the phone. Look for either the Bluetooth logo or "Bluetooth-ready" listed under these specs.

2. Put one of the phones in "Discovery" mode. You can do this by going into the phone's main menu, selecting the "Bluetooth" settings option, and selecting "Discovery" or "Pairing" mode. This will tell the phone to look for any Bluetooth devices emitting signals within range.

3. Put the second phone in "Sync" mode. You can do this by selecting the "Sync" option located near the "Discovery" or "Pairing" mode option in the phone's Bluetooth settings menu. This will cause the phone to emit a Bluetooth signal which will be recognized by the first phone.

4. Select the second phone from the list of Bluetooth devices recognized by the first phone. You can do this by highlighting it using the phone's arrow buttons and selecting it with the "Enter" button. The phones will then be connected to each other via Bluetooth wireless technology.
