9.7 Using Internet Sharing

Internet Sharing connects your PC or notebook computer to the Internet
by using your device’s data connection (GPRS or EDGE, for instance). You
can choose to connect via USB or Bluetooth.
Follow the procedure in this section to set up your device as a USB modem.
To learn how to set up your device as a Bluetooth modem, see “Use the
device as a Bluetooth modem” in this chapter.

Settings on the Internet Sharing screen. For more information about
setting up a GPRS or dial-up connection, see "Connecting to the Internet."
