With the recent update to OS version 3.1, AT&T closed the hole that allowed many of us to tether our iPhone’s to our laptops. I was not one of those individuals that used their phone to download large amounts of data, but rather, I used tethering for many of the tasks I would normally use my phone for in the first place (email, web-browsing, chat, etc…), only on a much larger screen and keyboard. I recently jailbroke my phone and found an app called MyWi, which, once again, brings back the beloved tethering. Although you still have the standard USB / Bluetooth tethering options, MyWi adds the ability to set up a wifi ad-hoc network, allowing you to connect to your phones connection over wifi. You are even able to connect more than one device utilizing wifi at the same time. The app costs $9.99, but if you have a jailbroke iPhone and are looking for a tethering option, I would definitely recommend purchasing MyWi
