What is iPhone tethering?


I want to know about what is iphone tethering and how does it affect your iphone, and whether you have to jailbreak it or unlock it before tethering. I have heard that tethered connections are slower than broadband or Wi-Fi connections is it true? I have the new iPhone3gs with 3.1 firmware so tell me the benefits of tethering my iphone?

iPhone tetheringis a magical technique actually. It is a technique which enables the iphone toact as a committed wireless modem and helps your computer to surf the net. Ihave tried it a lot with the help of my iphone 3GS. For this the minimum requirementswould be - you must be having a data plan, like some internet card type of athing activated in your phone.

The nextthing which comes to my mind as the basic requirement would be that you must behaving an iPhone 3GS or higher, running iOS 4 or higher version that will supportthe tethering.

Thetethered connections are way slower than the normal broadband or Wi-Ficonnections. With the help of iPhone tethering you can connect not only acomputer for internet access but also other Wi-Fi enabled devices, like an iPodor iPod touch. I hope the info has given you enough guidance.
