    Ask Tii - Tethering with jailbroken Verizon iPhone

    Hi Rob,

    FIrst, I love the show!  I have been listening for about a year now, but as a Verizon customer, I had to wait until the iPhone 4 was available on Verizon.  Now that I have it, I am having a blast listening to your podcast and using the information that I learn to make better use of the device.  I have the Tii app and look forward to your weekly installment.

    Now that iPad 2 is out, the iPad 1 has become much more affordable.  I would like to buy the 32 GB WiFi-only model.  Although I would like 3G data access, I am not willing to shell out the extra bucks for this.  

    Here is my question:  Since I have the iPhone 4 with an unlimited data plan, can I tether it to the iPad so that I can get unlimited 3G data on it?  I am assuming that I will have to Jailbreak the iPad, which is no problem.

    Thanks in advance for your insight.

    Keep up the great work!

    Darrell

     

    Hi Darrell,

    Thanks for listening to the show and for the kind words.
    If you can jailbreak your iPhone - there is an App called - MyWi - which will allow you to turn your iPhone 4 into a mobile hot spot.
    You can try out MyWi for free for 10 days - then it costs $20 for a one time purchase.
    If you need instructions for Jailbreaking your Verizon iPhone - here is a link to a good article.

    • I know we want to help out our jailbreak community, but as far as I can tell, no actual recorded testing done, PDAnet works just as well and is free.
