iTethered!
Terence and I were having our usual Sunday coffee fix at Sembawang Starbucks when this happened. I haven been trying to connect to the Starbucks wireless network, but it seems that the network is friendly only to Windows laptops >.> All the mac users at the cafe have problems accessing network =( I personally did tried spending hours connecting to the network. It just can’t =( Same problem at Wheelock’s Starbucks. Thankfully, ION’s Starbucks works just perfectly =)
Somehow today, I got bored of studying at some point. So I asked Terence if he wanted to transfer some files over BT. Then that led to me trying to connect to the internet through his laptop’s Starhub mobile internet. Another failure.
The ignorant me, having that 1gb data plan over 3G which was rarely utilised above 100MB, poked a few times at the Iphone’s settings. Enabled “Internet Tethering”, turned “On” Bluetooth. Then, Life came back to the Macbook!
Thanks Mao for this indirect discovery!
Yay! Mobile Internet, yours Truly.
