Setting up Internet Tethering on iPhone

It seems that on Vodacom Internet Tethering is not set up by default in the new iPhone OS 3.0 software that was released today

To set it up follow these steps:

  • Visit http://wan.to/iphone from the Safari Browser on your iPhone (Big thanks to @eel for this )
    Click on Download Config under enable tethering on iPhone 3.0

  • On your iPhone Go to Settings -> Network -> Enable Tethering
  • Make sure your phone is plugged into your PC/Mac with the USB cable
    On a Mac, a pop-up window appears the first time you connect, saying “A new network interface has been detected.” Click Network Preferences, configure the network settings for iPhone, then click Apply. On a PC, use the Network Control Panel to select and configure the iPhone connection.(For more info visit http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#basics.using-iphone-as-a-modem)
  • Click the Internet Tethering Slider to ON. A blue band will appear at the top of your screen to indicate your are connected with internet tethering
  • I disconnected my wireless, and had my 3G running on my phone, and was able to browse the net from my Mac
