March 22, 2009 · Print This Article

Q: What is the iPhone Tunnel Suite 2.7 ? A: that is a Windows application that enables you to surf the Net from a big computer, like your laptop or desktop, while using your iPhone 3G, EDGE GPRS input connection. The special thing is that you can choose to tether by your USB cable rather than using WIFI. Q: Do you need a jailbroken iPhone? A: In the instruction say something like SSH and Cydia so I say yes. Unfortunately to compose it al work, you need to be a kind of geek. Fortunatly I found THIS blog from Austria where they produced a well written manual but unfortunately it is written in German. So I have “tried” to translate it with help of google and myself for our readers. We at IT&T have not tried that instruction, so can not and will not support you whether you will have a go.

Please find the original German manual and pictures via benm.at
