Connecting Your Laptop to the Internet Through Your iPhone

Posted on September 18, 2007 by J. Benjamin Stevens

Internet Several months ago, I posted a way to connect a Mac notebook computer to the internet using a Bluetooth telephone.  I have been using this method for quite some time, and it works flawlessly.

One of the reasons I was hesitating to get an iPhone was because I didn't want to lose the ability to use my cell phone as a wireless modem from time to time.  Well, I now have one less excuse, because the folks at Dragon Forged have figured out how to do just that.

The step-by-step illustrated instructions are listed HERE, and of course, this method is completely free!  Thanks to those guys and gals for their efforts in figuring out how to do this and for sharing it with the rest of us.

Note:  I am still waiting on the 3G iPhone to be released before I get one, so I have not tested this method myself.
