I would like to use my pearl 8130 to connect to the internet on my laptop can anyone help please PM me with answers this is driving me nuts My provider is US Cellular thank you HELP
You probably should call your provider and talk with them about it. I think verizon charges like an extra 30 a month for tethering? someone correct me if im wrong!
You want what Sprint calls Phone As Modem. It isn't included with most/all carriers' Blackberry data plans and, as stated above, usually runs $15-$30 extra.
US Cellular actually does not allow tethering on any of their devices or with any of their data plans. If it is determined that you are tethering, there are actions taken to assure that it won't continue.
That's because U.S.Cellular, T-Mobile, Altel, etc, have data services that are either puny or nonexistent. I feel sorry for any user on these carriers who goes to Blackberry - they're "Cheap Talk Only" carriers and should be upfront about it.
