This is a great tip for iPhone 3G and 3Gs owners out there!  This is how you can use your iPhone to get internet connection on the go! You may also use this little trick at your house if you do not have internet accessibility for some reason.

Anywho? lets get starting! I learned how to do this from a cool youtube video.

Steps include a download that you have to visit on your iPhone. Which will install a mobile configuration file.  Basically what this means is that your’e using the internet connection from your iPhone ‘FREE’ as a modem for your computer (desktop or laptop).

Charges from your carrier will apply. I also beilieve that tethering is not available right now for a reason!! so until then, lets just assume that you are not supposed to use tethering for your iPhone.  Be warned that you may use this at your own risk.

So please check and see what your carrier plan is, so that you don’t get stuck with a butt load of user charges.

With your Phone go to this website, to download the Mobileconfig file http://help.benm.at/help.php
When you get to this page just click the Mobileconfigs downloads button:

After you download the Mobileconfig file, the site will ask you where you live by country. Simply choose the country of your choice!

I chose USA, but choose whichever country you live in.  Provided that it is an available choice from the list on the website.  Once you do that you will see this screen!

Choose the carriers that are available. Right now only two are available ( At&t and T-Mobile)

Once you have installed the file. Go to Settings>General>Network>
Notice: that you have a new network settings named Internet Tethering

For Mac Users you have to setup a new network view the video below.  First connect your iPhone 3G or 3Gs to your computer.  Also for Windows users I noticed that you can just enable the Internet Tethering by going to Settings>General>Networks>Internet Tethering ON .  When you do this, the system will ask you if you want to connect via USB or Bluetooth.  I normally choose USB because my iPhone is connected to my machine by USB cord. 

I have a Mac and PC so watch this vid for a little break down on how to make a new network on your Mac for iPhone 3G tethering.

How to EASILY GET Tethering on Your iPhone 3G + 3GS 3.0 FW without a Jailbreak! FREE!! EASY!

“About 5 hours ago (Thursday evening, less than a week after the 3GS
launch), we were able to verify that the 24Kpwn exploit that the hybrid
team used on the iPod Touch 2G is still applicable to the bootrom of
the iPhone 3GS. That means we can use the same sort of technique used
by our current redsn0w tool to jailbreak and unlock the iPhone 3GS.” iPhone Dev – Team Blog

So apparently you can jailbreak and or unlock your iPhone 3.0 3Gs.  Because some of the fundamental flaws that allow this crack still remain in the new phones.

Safari 4 Beta has been released today!! Really excited about that. Download it from the apple.com website today.

I noticed that my 1 Password is not turned on anymore.  The user field and password fill button disappeared.  Not to worry though… I will look into this and post a “how to enable 1 Password in Safari 4″

First try to Quit Safari 4 and restart again.. if that does not work,

How to enable 1password in the Safari 4 Beta:

1.Close Safari
2.Go to the /Applications/ folder
3.Right click on 1password.app, hit “Show Package Contents”
4.Navigate to /Contents/Resources/
5.Double click on SupportedBrowsers.plist. If you have Apple’s development tools installed, it’ll open in the Plist editor. If not, it’ll open in plaintext.
If you’re using the Plist editor, expand the “Safari” drop-down (Just click the little arrow beside Safari).

Look for the MaxBundleVersion key with a value of 5528.1 – change it to 5528.16. Save.
Open Safari

You can now use 1password via the right click menu in Safari Beta 4. If you want to add the 1password button to your toolbar, go to View > Customize Toolbar in Safari and drag it over.

Enjoy easy access to all of your junk!

You can also try to Quit Safari and Restart Safari 4 beta again!… That should work too!
