FYI my iphone stopped working yesterday and when I hooked it up to my computer, itunes said that my software was out of date. I had been running OS 3.0 BETA 3, not jailbroken. At this point I had the pink screen of death with no functionality from the phone. After checking with my DEV, I downloaded itunes 8.2 and the full IPSW for BETA 5. Installed itunes and pointed to the IPSW and away it went.

Everything is running smooth again... with an added treat.
I downloaded the IPCC file for the ATT tethering (from MODMYI).
Installed it after making sure I had a fully functional phone, running OS 3.0 BETA 5.
After applying and rebooting, my download speed is 4 times faster than my DSL !


I have been using ATT DSL with a 2WIRE Router. The speed is supposed to be 768KBS,with a reported connection of 100MBS; but ends up being around 60KBS throughput.
The average speed from the iphone is around 250KBS,
with a reported connection of 500KBS.
OF COURSE ATT will probably cut that back once tethering is in production. Don't worry about using the iphone as a tethered modem, I'm sure once ATT figures out what is going on they will charge xtra $$ per month to allow you to use it that way !
I'm also pretty sure they will ramp the speed down to save bandwidth...

Try PDANET... There is a trial period and it;s fairly decent. I used it before I could get my new laptop connected to the home network.

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Check your Internet connection. Try visiting another website to make sure you are connected.

Retype the address.

Go back to the previous page.

More information

This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:

Internet connectivity has been lost.
The website is temporarily unavailable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable.
The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

I must be missing something.

I found setting up the tetherng feature to be
easy, but in my case, most of the time I use
it at home while I am on my Mac to connect the iphone
to the net, as the local wifi signal is not "strong"
enough to hold on to. the Iphone reconizes the network
but will not really connect

Anyone know if you can use the iPhone as a modem device similar to what you would do with a moto rzr? I have software that requires it that way as opposed to a network connection.
