To use UMTS Internet via a bluetooth mobile phone, install the packages gnome-ppp and ppp.

There's a nice manual at UbuntuUsers.

  2. use sdptool search DUN to find the dial-up networking details of your mobile, note the line Channel: 7

  3. edit the file /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf and uncomment the section and make the changes according to your details:

     rfcomm0 {
     	# Automatically bind the device at startup
     	bind yes;
    
     	# Bluetooth address of the device
     	device 11:22:33:44:55:66;
    
     	# RFCOMM channel for the connection
     	channel	7;
    
     	# Description of the connection
     	comment "SonyEricsson P1i";
     }
