I love my Thunderbolt and it's performed flawlessly (almost) for me ever since launch day.

But now i can't get it to do a new trick (for me) - tethering.

From what i understand, I should be able to tether to my laptop using the cable that came with the phone, right? No additional charges, etc? I pay for the data plan, but not for the wireless hotspot service.

is there a step-by-step instructional video, or checklist anywhere that can get even a Dummy like me successfully tethered?

Remember, simple is better, and rooting is out of the question.

Thanks in advance!!!!!

I guess I'm not explaining what I am looking for well enough, sorry. Like i said, I'm a noob.

I'm talking about wired tethering using the USB port. There are several threads here that claim it is possible (I searched... a lot), but none that have a tutorial that I can locate.
Supposedly it is using the "native thunderbolt app" Huh?

Thanks again.

PdaNet is what your looking for. It's free but after about two weeks you can't log into secure sights. Have to pay if you want to continue this feature.
