Unable to Tether-How to Fix??

**Hachihead** · 08-08-2012, 05:43 PM

I'm on Optus(Australia) Prepay and they disable the option to tether.
I'm backpacking at the moment so this is very inconvenient.

Is there a way to change the iPhone so that I can enable the tethering options??
I'm on a factory unlocked iPhone 4 on 5.1ios.

I'm not currently jailbroken but have no problem doing it if it helps.

Any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks

And, as far as I know, your only option!

The 14 days trial version is free... the registered version usually costs 30$. After the 14 days, the free version will start blocking out secure sites.

At least it's what they say in the App description and on JuneFabrics website.

I know MyWi works very well... I read everywhere that PDAnet works very well, too...
