PAYG Three on Iphone - tether internet?

Is it possible to tether a payg 3 sim to my macbook ? Do you need a usb dongle? Subscribe to a different account? I have jail broken my iphone 3gs which runs ios4.

I would like to use some of the free 150mb i get with each top up on my computer - three doesnt really help ' yes you can tether, but youll need to use the one plan, if not, you may still be able to use it'

Tethering works fine with a pay as you go sim on 3. I used one other week when my home broadband died.

Data will come out of the 150MB first, then you'll be charged unless you buy an add on

Use USB or bluetooth (if your phone allows it, the iPhone does)

On the iPhone go into Settings, General, Network.

Half way down the screen it says Internet Tethering. Click to turn it on, and there are instructions on how to connect.

You'll also be able to use the phone as a wifi access point when iOS 4.3 is released. Until then as the other poster says use USB lead or bluetooth
