There are a few solutions out there for tethering your iPhone 3G, but there’s one method that puts smiles on my face.

The software I use for tethering is iPhoneModem by Addition. It really makes the tethering process painless and incredibly easy. I’ve never used Netshare, so those users may differ on simplicity. All you need to do is download the iPhoneModem software for your Mac (Windows users have to manually set up the SOCKS proxy), run iPhoneModem on your jailbroken iPhone 3G/EDGE, and you’re good to go!

The free version runs a nag screen every few kb that halts the current connection until you’ve either enter the registration number or hit continue trial. For casual use the nag screen is bearable but after a while it gets incredibly annoying. The program really is worth the $10 though. Yeah, you can download 3proxy and set everything up manually, but this really saves you much of the hassle.

Please remember that tethering is against your AT&T contract and excessive use can lead to huge fees for data use.
