I am having trouble set up my bold to tether. I don't have a tethering plan which I am sure I don't need it. I have followed the instructions posted on this site and I can get to work. I keep getting an error connection message. Can anyone help me out please.
Sorry but it won't work to just attach your Bold to your pc unless you have the tethering plan with AT&T or you might want to check into TetherBerry at this link Tether BlackBerry | BlackBerry Modem | TetherBerry They have a 7-day trial. I was in the beta for the app and then purchased it and it works great with my Bold on AT&T.
I asked couple of people that I know that work for ATT and you can get tethering on bb without needing the tethering plan. They wouldn't say how, the answer I got was google it. Anyways, I was looking into web site you recommended, so is it $50.00 one time fee you pay or is there a monthly fee?
One time fee and you can transfer it to a new Blackberry just by contacting them. Occasionally there is a sale on it. Recently it was 1/2 price but that is over. I recommend you try the trial and see if it does what you need before purchasing. For what it does the price is the same as paying one month of AT&T Connect plan. Also, AT&T used to be unlimited and that has changed. Hope this helps.
Just want to let you know that I was able to configure my bb bold to tethering with having to buy any software or getting tethering plan. I used the directions that i found on this forum, but I was missing a step which I had to google it. Thanks for all your help!!!!!!!!
