I’m using my MacBook Pro on the move more and more these days and find it increasingly inconvenient to find Hot Spots or free WiFi – the UK’s free BT OpenZones aren’t too common in Glasgow, and more and more coffee shops are charging or restricting WiFi usage. I want to use my 3G Sony Ericsson K850i phone as the USB modem to get online and check emails and do some light surfing.
Vodafone offers differing mobile web packages, but the problem I’m finding is how do I set up the System Prefs/Network to connect through USB? I’ve looked on the web but can’t find good info. I’m not wanting to use Bluetooth due to speed and power consumption.
Any help is much appreciated, including other ways to connect – but not wanting to spend on extra gadgets (like a 3G dongle) as I think I have all the kit I need to get online on the move.
