If you get a message asking whether you want your computer to remember the dial text for this connection, we recommend that you select Yes. This avoids errors and the inconvenience of entering the dial text for every session.

Ending the DUN session lets you use the wireless features of your Centro that require a data connection, it frees up the Bluetooth feature so that you can connect to other Bluetooth devices, and it optimizes battery life, too. 1 On your computer, right-click the icon or option representing your Centro. 2 Click Disconnect.

DID YOU KNOW?You can check the status of the connection by right-clicking the Bluetooth network icon in the taskbar.
