[Tutorial] Use Your iDevice as a WiFi Adapter

[Joomla12]

I just spent hours trying to figure out how to do this since my cousin's desktop doesn't have a wireless adapter anymore. It's quyite simple actually.

Requirements

Jailbroken iPod/iPhone
iTunes
Your iDevice's USB cable
PDANet (Purchase through Cydia)
PDANet Desktop (OS X Version, Windows x86 Version, Windows x64 Version)
A WiFi/3G Connection (charges vary with carrier)

Getting Ready

Before you even begin, your device must be Jailbroken. This is quite simple. If it is already JB'd, you can skip this step.

Click Here

Once your device is ready, purchase or download the trial of PDANet from Cydia. After it's finished installing, run it from the home screen. Tap settings and choose "USB Mode". Make sure your device is connected to your computer and leave it alone.

Connecting to the Network

I recommend using a WiFi connection instead of 3G (if available) mainly because it's faster and won't run up a bill.

Make sure that you have PDANet Desktop installed. Note for Windows users: A screen will pop up asking if you want to install the modem drivers. Make sure you click ":Install Anyway". After the program is set up, run it and an icon will show in either the System Tray or in your Finder bar. Click it and click connect. You should soon be connected through the PDANet modem and have an Internet connection.

I'm using it now on a desktop...Downloaded a file at 514 kbps earlier. This works quite well.
