Query by Rory P: Is it possible to connect my laptop tp the world wide web utilizing an Iphone?
Laptop is running Vista…

If I plug my Iphone in could I use that to connect to the World wide web in the absence of a wireless network?

Several thank you in advance

Obtain the free of charge Skype Plan, and then on to your phone. All Skype calls are free everywhere in the Planet.

    First of all, you will need to bluetooth, the two toghether. Then you will need to add an unlimited data plan for PDA;s to your service plan.
    I currently use my cell phone as a modem to connect my desktop to the internet. I also have AT&T (cingular), This is what I had to do to get mine connected. Skype will have no impact on your bill, as you will be sending data not making calls.

    You can use your iPhone as a modem to get online using a program Tinyproxy. It allows you to surf the net on a MAC laptop at EDGE speeds which are not huge, but still acceptable. Some will wish it had 3G, but EDGE is ok for doing regular browsing on the internet. Though, this will cost you depending on your data charges with your wireless network provider.

    You can download Tinyproxy in this site: http://dragonforged.com/blog/2007/09/tethering-the-iphone-for-os-x.html#more

    What Dad D said. There is a specific dial string for access to the at&t data network that you need to enter into your bluetooth dial-up networking profile (or the similar USB modem connection) for the iPhone on the desktop/laptop. The connection is usually 115 kbps so not light speed but alright in a crunch. If you don’t get the unlimited plan before you do this you will probably get hit with an enormous bill for access time so be aware of that.
