If you are on 3.0 firmware or higher then go to this link on your iphones browser and it will unlock the tethering

Have you installed 3.1???
It is supposed to eliminate that option. I haven't upgraded to 3.1 because of this neither has my GF - we are looking for somebody to try it before we do. :D
I don't tether very often, but it's nice to know it's there if I need it.

Ive got a ad on C's-list to jailbreak/unlock/hack it all for 20 bucks...

Right now its not offered threw ATT but when it comes out it will be 60 bucks a month to have tethering legally.
Otherwise the hack is free...

There is no app. Just install the profile/software from benm site. reboot phone.
Go to settings, general, network, turn on tethering.. plug it into your laptop/computer and let it install its software, should just be a minute or 2 and it will automatically come on...

yup it works well, but it did break visual voicemail... I would download it and install the carrier file when I needed tethering and then reset network settings after.
