By default, all phones have the phone as modem option. The hacks are what make DATA appear there and, unless you like paying extra, you would do well to use that option.

Thanks for the info. I was aware of what PAM was, but what threw me off was the hack in which both selections automatically show up in the list. When I had the Sprint stock ROM with Reg hack, I did not remember both showing up in the list. Anyways, as you/violent31601 stated, use DATA or else Sprint security guards may call you. Tethering seems to work fine for me.
thanks again.
