has anyone tethered to a laptop or an ipad? im currently debating getting a 9900 or just keeping my torch and wanted to know the speeds people were getting. i usually get around 1mb when i currently tether, but i beleive bluetooth can go up to 2.1? anyone with experience with this please step in
Mobile hot spot isn't currently avaliable to my knowledge on the current os version

im not talking about mobile hotspot im talking about tethering via a Bluetooth connection
Tether to my laptop works fine...
exact same as previous OS's
what speeds are you getting? is it an improvement over previous devices?
I have not done a speed test yet
I can only assume H+ will be faster depending on etc. etc.
Just outta curiosity I ran a speed test and it was beautiful. There is no Bluetooth tethering so this was the traditional way using DM. I can't wait until the Mobile Hotspot feature gets rolled out and it looks like that will allow BT tethering too, if need be.
I see you are at Rogers and are tethering a 9900 via DM? For some reason I can't tether via my DM (Version 6.1.0.35) with my 9900 yet I can use the same software with a 9700 and I can tether. I'm also with Rogers and have a 6GB data plan...is there anything you needed to do with the actual 9900 to get it to be able to tether?
Thanks
I tethered using my playbook, without doing a speed test, I noticed a significant increase in speed compared to my torch under 3G speeds. I'm with rogers using H+ connection
