what if you were to the corporate data plan and VPN into another network, and then proxy through the phone? They could not tell what is going on there then.

Everything in the MAC tutorial is identical to windows except for creating ad-hoc network. Heres what I did (I'm on Vista)

to create ad-hoc:

hit start button
then hit "connect to"
select "set up a network or connection"
select "set up a wireless ad hoc (computer to computer) network"
hit "next"
Fill in "network name" to whatever you like I named mine "iPhone"
on the drop down you can either choose "no authentication" or if you choose "WEP" make sure you fill in a security passcode.
check "save network"
hit "Next" then Hit "close
you're all done.

hello.
i saw a lot of you guys say you got AIM to work. I can't get aim to work.

truthfully, i really want digsby to work. I tried to make digsby use "specify proxy config" (and put in my iphone's ip address as the host and set port to 1080) AND i tried to let it "use default system settings" but i still have not luck either way.

any suggestions?

I got the lastedt version of firefox and safari to work with the 3G. Too bad it's limited to certain websites. I can't get iPhone | iPod touch forums, news, themes, apps, games, unlock, jailbreak community - ModMyI.com to work. But eBay and other sites work.

At&t's unlimited data plan only allows 5gb? If they get on your *** about it can't you sue them for false advirtising or something?

Someone needs to learn to read the fine print in a contract.

[kraziebone]

You shouldn't be able to advertise something to lure people in and then make a complete contradiction in the fine print. Although I don't think that is right, I really am not complaining too loud because I just took a look at data charges for Australia. Has anyone took a look at oversea's data usage prices for the iPhone 3g? In some of these places you're paying 179$ a month for a single gigabyte. I'll take the "unlimited" plan anyday

Hey there --

I love that we have this ability.. but, I've got this set up exactly as suggested by all here.. and it just will not connect.

I have winpwned my iPhone 3g -- great

Installed 3 proxy and mobile terminal from cydia

restarted the iphone.

created an ad hoc computer to computer network and connected to it on my puter..

open and no encryption

I've gone to terminal and typed in socks and hit return

I've connected teh iphone to the new network.. made note of the ip addy

gone to network settings in firefox.. entered the ip in the socks host line port 1080

left the other proxy lines empty and the port 0

I've gone to about:config

changed the third line down to true

opened a web page on the iphone to make sure it's connected to 3g

then tried to open a page in fire fox.. and nothing.. says the proxy isn't accepting the connection or something to that extent.

I never get the globe in the tray between the monitors for the connection.. but, don't know if I should.

Can anyone see a problem in my config? I'd love to get this going..

thanks

I wasn't upset or ranting, happy noodle boy, I was just asking because they do advirtise and unlimited data plan that really isn't unlimited. But I guess you they can do that, sorry if it seemed like a rant or something

It's all right, but in this world, there's no such thing as unlimited : \

On a compeltely related sidenote, I posted this in Chit Chat because it no longer is available in the US, but you can now buy NetShare on the AppStore, which is an official tethering app from NullRiver.

It was available in the US for like an hour and then they took it down. It seems you can still buy it elsewhere, though.

Edit: Ha I wrote this just as you posted:

Apparently there was an app out there called NETSHARE that made tethering so much easier by doing it for you. Somehow it made it's way to the Appstore but has been taken off.

I wonder if anyone was able to get there hands on this before it was pulled?

[joejoeiphone1]

any help would be greatly appreciated.

[ShiveR]

For those of you that can't get this to work!

Under your proxy settings in firefox, select SOCKS v4.

This goes for windows users too. This worked for me.

[keatonreckard]

I have a copy of netshare if anyone wants a copy just pm me.
Also what kind of speeds are you guys getting?

[SuperBillyson]

this for 3g only? Or will it work on a 1st gen on 2.0? Jailbroken of course....
