I have iphone 3gs and I came to know from my friend that Apple has built internet tethering capability to iPhone. Internet tethering helps iPhone owners to use iPhone as wireless modem or device to connect notebook computer to internet for surfing and browsing. I have a laptop and I was wondering that can I use iphone to connect to my dell laptop? If yes then how? Help me on this…

This is the easy way we can access internet with the tethering laptop through USB to iPhone, no need to restrict and with the right settings we can be shared with other devices.

Normally laptop will automatically accept the tethered iPhone and create required network connection to get the benefits of the connected network access via iPhone.

The way of getting the connection

Things we need

Steps to connect

  1. Launch iTunes.
  2. Go to iPhone settings page in iTunes.
  3. Click the "Update" button.
  4. Then iTunes will download all the latest version of the iPhone firmware.
  5. Bring the Up to date from iPhone without debugging.
  6. After restore, Contact the network provider to order a bolt-on tethering package.
