You either have to pair via bluetooth or tether over USB. The 9800 does not have a "hotspot" capability.

You need have a tethering plan as well. AT&T charges for this.

I use tether from tether.com for this when I need it. Works flawlessly. NO tethering data plan from AT&T this way, either.

Later,
