Message: http://www.boxcarmarketing.com/blog/item/iphone-internet-tethering-not-working-fido/ At some point with one of the iTunes upgrades there was a change to how the internet tethering works. For the last couple of weeks, I have not been able to connect to the internet by tethering my iPhone. My details: * Fido plan with unlimited data (hooray for me!) * 3G iPhone (grandpa) * iTunes 10 (keen upgrader) I think I fixed this and in the event that I need to do this again, here’s what I did. * Open System Preferences > Network. * Error messages says there is no “Ethernet Adaptor (en3)” or “Ethernet Adaptor (en5)” or the cable for Ethernet is not plugged in * In the column of network connections on the left, click the + in the lower left. * Select Interface: Ethernet Adaptor (en3) (or en5) * Click “Create” * Select the newly-created Ethernet Adaptor (en3) (or en5) * Click “Assist me…” * Click “Assistant” * Type in a Location name - “iPhone” or whatever * Click Continue * Click “I connect to my local area network (LAN)”. At this point I got another error and was prompted to fill in IP address, etc. I clicked the red close button in the upper left and killed the Network Assistant. (She’s a digital assistant, no harm done.) And my Ethernet Adaptor (en3) lit up green and I was able to browse via Internet Tethering. Now when I connect my iPhone via the USB cable the Ethernet Adaptor (en3) goes green and I’m online. Yay for me!
