Be Careful when using this as different service providers charges vary depending on what package or plan you are on.

 

I accept no responsibility for any cost occurred while using this method

If your are like me and can't get a signal through the Vodaphone but got full signal on your I-Phone try this.

 

Go to settings

Switch on the Personal Hotspot. (If your wifi is switched off you will get this screen Tap "Turn on Wi-FI and BlueTooth) You can switch off the bluetooth to save battery later.

I opened the PS store using this it was a bit slow but it worked.

I have tried wipeout but it timed out first time when trying to connect to PSN but I tried again and it worked and I had a good race and experienced no lag.

 

I would use this occasionally but not all the time as I still got to see the mr bill when he comes through the post.

Viewing the store, sending messages etc is all fine but unless you have a proper unlimited plan then I wouldn't start downloading anything.

Yeah you can do the same Wi-Fi tethering using the Samsung Galaxy 2/3 and most android phones I believe,
