I just tested the iphonemodem during the CNY
was using it to skype my wife thru my mbp, but it seems that the connection can only maintain for a matter of less than 5 minutes
video calls are ok
has it to do with not purchasing the app? as it seems after paying 9.99 the only difference is no purchase reminder on the iphone

any suggestion?

@rx330,
iPhonemodem? Is that a new application that will enable U to use ur iPhone as a modem to logon?

yes, the one where ur iphone needs to be jailbroken only can pakai one
terthering is the word i guess

@rx330,
OoOOh.. more like 'Choy'!!!!!!!!!! I guess it's not going to work on mine then

i also JB-ed mine.... i think the only thing im using after JB is iphonemodem, fring cracked app, and super mario only

@rx330,
Er.. super mario?! Sounds like that Nintendo game that top my list of favourite games when I was a kid

yea, one of the reasons i JB, for the NES emulator

RX330,

I did try it as well but never got to like it as my E71 proved to be better at doing this. Speed wise, you know la with 3G, kadang2 laju kadang2 lambat, susah nak cakap.
Basically it works.

what is this fring crack app u talking abt? apa extra feature on the crack version..i downloaded fring from iTune store is different then yours?

we pay for it they get it for free...
tats da difference

the one obtained via the itunes store, cannot make voice calls via the 3G network (only when you are connected via wifi)

ohh i see.. like that no use for me la.. i dont use 3G also.. hehe

harmeet, try n get ur facts right
fring is a free app

PDANET 1.51. i am using it via WIFI & USB cable. No problem in full license

sugen, apa tu?

Is available in Cydia. PDANET, is a true iphone modem. No proxy setup is needed & it work with all kind of protocol services... U can turn your iphone in a Wireless modem or via USB cable's connection..

thanks sugen, i give it a try later

It comes with a trial license. During this period u can have full access on all protocol. If u did not purchase, then it will only allow u to use for port 80 services.. Means only web browser surfing.. NO IM, no pop3, smtp etc services... Just did a googlling & u can get a FULL license easily... But, pls buy it..

i try the website to check how much the license cost, but cant log in, macam no web exist like tat

cant try it now, im using mac, so usb connection is out of the question, and wen i try swithing on the iphone wifi, it automatically logs in to my office network, in which pdanet tells me i need to disconnect it and log to my mac ad hoc wifi, which it aint appearing on the wifi list

U have to create a Adhoc WIFI connection from your notebook.. Then iphone join in this connection. U r done.. PDANET will shows u are connected.. That is all..

sigh.... iphonemodem got this app, it will create for me automatically

now i need to go find that thread on how to create an adhoc connection

not difficult to create a Adhoc connection on MAC/XP/Vista... Give a try by clicking your MAC book wifi connection. look for Creating new WIFI network. then select Adhoc..... I never use MAC b4.. but normally it is there 1...
If not mistaken iphonemodem is not a true modem software.. It uses proxy...

will try, thanks sugen

Here is the steps for MAC

sugen, im using the pda net now, bloody telekom down today, 3 hours later only i remember abt using the iphone 3G to my mbp

so far so good, speed is constant too, THANKS!!!!

Great to hear that...I am also using it on my EDGE unlimited data plan.. Speed is good & stable at about 160-200 kbps..

edge so fast?
im running on 3G, stable is abt 250, but occasionally i see shot up to 300+ kbps

Yup. EDGE is very stable & reliable...Had been using it for 1 year plus..Started with my hp ipad, now with iphone..

hmm, if incoming call, will it affect anything?
and do i need or is there a way to shut pdanet after i use it?

Added on February 6, 2009, 12:43 pmhad an incoming call just now, line gone
need to pdanet again

Basically no need, if u disconnect via USB/WIFI connection. Then, the connection is lost. Or u can also turn it off..Just go to PDANET setting- PDANET off..For EDGE, can't accept incoming call when there is EDGE traffic transfer.. When no packet being send/receive. Then incoming call can get through..

y u aint using 3G? i tot the price is the same for unlimited package?

tie up with DG 2 years contract... Plan to switch when it expire this years

i just started using iphonemodem...
must say...very easy 2 set-up n easy 2 use also...
just wondering wats da diff between da paid version...

Yes..big different,iphonemodem is a proxy type.Means the app u use must support proxy connection.Not all app today support proxy connection.A good example is VPN client.U can't connect your iPhone VPN tunnel via proxy.PDANET is a true modem software that support all protocols

so the benefits of paid version is?

btw, yesterday hor... i checked my usage is 800+ mb for data received, i think once it reach one gb hor i think my iphone restarts itself... funny..

and the phone dem kaw warm

PDANET is a true or native iphone modem. That support all protocols. & it is not proxy type.

msn is wat protocol?
all i know is it kept disconnecting

with da recent probs with tmnet, im currently tinking of tethering 3g to my pc...
i hv tried it b4, it works but da ting is, i hv not used it for long periods...
i just use it for short time n then phone gets heat up a little...
any1 here use for long periods...share views on tis pls
thx

i used for long period, but then again the battery of the iphone doesnt last very long

twice i kena b4, the iphone auto restart itself

tat shudnt be a prob if i plug da cable rite...

sigh, my previous reply gone

plug wat cable?

I reckon is the USB cable that harmeet15 is refering to.

pdanet only works thru wifi for macs

Ya..Windows have a better hand with the option to use the USB cable.

You still can plug in your USB cable so that your phone won't run out of batt and i think that's what harmeet15 is refering too also.

tats is wat i replied earlier
seems got bug, pdanet itself did state it as well
pdanet + usbcharging = not applicable
alhtough the battery indicator shows full, under pdanet, u can see ur battery depleting

Hopefully the next update will squash that bug. I guess is Wifi for now for Mac users.

seems like no updates has been done, and i still dun quite understand the difference btwn the paid and free version
