Tethering

Tethering is a fairly new term. `With Internet tethering on iPhone, you don’t need a Wi-Fi hotspot to surf the web from your computer. Now you can share the 3G connection on your iPhone with your Mac notebook or PC laptop and connect to the Internet anywhere. When your iPhone is tethered, you can still send and receive data and make phone calls.(Apple, 2009). I have been tethering for the last one week and it is a great feature. The coffee shop where I go does not have Wi-Fi. Tethering makes it possible for internet connectivity. Apple did not allow internet tethering worldwide on 3g network till 2009. So only phones that were jail broken could tethering, but not many iPhone users knew how to jailbreak their phones.But now apple have fixed that problem.

So I hope all you readers are benefiting from my blog. Stay tuned for more tips and tricks, and of course the app of the month``.
