once you get good at tethering, look up "wmwifirouter" it will blow your mind.

see... we need more people like the man above me... gettin his point across witout bein an asshole... i really didnt know where to begin on using this phone as a modem... thanx a bunch, homey...

does it matter that i have the power vision plus pack?... i just called the sprint rep (and recieved the best customer service I HAVE EVER RECIEVED FROM A SPRINT REP) and she told me that i didnt have the kinda plan that allows me to do that... my plan is just internet and text messages... does that matter...

it doesn't matter, as long as you have unlimited data plan. now tethering to your phone with out a PAM (phone as modem) is wrong. and of course sprint will tell you the same. of course this doesn't stop me and MANY others from doing it.

sprint knows when your connected to the net, but there is discussion on weather after using the above reg hack if sprint can tell if your using your phone to watch youtube or your laptop. there is no guarantee, but people have downloaded gigs of data a month without any charges from sprint. in fact i don't think i've ever heard of anyone getting charged for this ever (as long as they set up there phone right).

I want to say this should be used to check your email and just surf the web. I can not stress enough that if cats keep downloading torrents and "gigs of data a month" Sprint will shut down tethering for free and make us all pay. This is more of a sprint knows its going on but letting it slide for right now things. You want to DL "gigs of data a month" do it on your home pc/laptop on your home connection.

So next time use WMWIFIRouter and let everyone share the bits. Tell the guy using the USB to connect his phone that he is not being polite by hogging bandwidth.

(feel like I'm talking to my 13 year old, now)....... a good rule to follow on a forum is to use language you would use when you speak to your grandmother (probably some of those reading, as well. Gee, mister. My college age daughter doesn't use any of this language, but regardless, this is a public site and I am just asking for a little common courtesy. I even offered some help for internet connection in my post, but I also offered a little advice to keep you in the good grace of the moderators. Can't you take it as friendly advice instead of an attack? No need to respond, but you may if you beleive you have to have the last word, sir.
