However if I am on the phone and then attempt to connect it never shows connected on the phone but rather it simply continues to attempt to connect.

Now in my world I only need this ability for when the primary system goes down which is maybe once or twice a year as such the process aka work around should not be this difficult.

Frustrating to say the least

Further assitance would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

UPDATE

I just tethered via VZ Acess; for some reason I thought that it was a bigger deal however considering it is $15.00 and is associated with my unlimited data plan it became rather painless and seems to work fine.

Per Toast

Download speed was 1.2 ish however upload was only in the high 100 range; tolerable.

Now the next question

How to talk and be tethered at the same time?? I asked to which I was told that this work around would have to be figured out on my own.

So now I ask.............. who has the answer for this?

Thank you

Shadowman
