Having been on the road for 11 days now, I was very excited when I found out that you can bypass the lockdown on AT&T tethering with the new iPhone 3.0 software. It was a very simple fix to allow 3G tethering. If you’re interested in setting it up for yourself, and having a solid internet connection just about anywhere, here are the steps:

1. Download the carrier settings file for AT&T, and copy it to your desktop. This file is necessary to trick AT&T into letting you tether for free.
2. Open up terminal and copy the following command in and press enter: “defaults write com.apple.iTunes carrier-testing -bool TRUE” (do not include the quotes). Close terminal after you’ve added this line in.
3. Sync your iPhone with iTunes and wait for it to say, “OK to disconnect.” At this point, hold down the option key on your Mac and click the restore button for your iPhone. You will not actually restore the software, rather the carrier file.
4. The dialogue box will pop up, allowing you to browse to your desktop and select your AT&T carrier file.
5. 5. You’re done, you can now tether via USB and/or Bluetooth.
