Hi Ronni

Great news re tethering on the iPhone through Telstra, I was considering 
changing provider because the lack of tethering by Telstra, but not now.  WAMUG 
is well worth being a member of and all the contributions are so helpful, a 
great concept.

 Of course, it would be very expensive to use.

 Hi Susan,
 
 Telstra has confirmed that it's not charging extra for iPhone tethering. It's 
 included in your current Data Pack usage.
 Go over your Data Pack limit and you will pay for the extra browsing at a 
 reduced rate  
 
  There’s no extra charge, although you’ll need to be very mindful of your 
 included data allowance, as tethering is a surefire way to burn through that 
 150MB if you’re on a smaller plan (such as I am $50 a mth which includes 
 150MB which equates to 153,600kB Data pack )

 Data used when tethering is charged at either a ‘Pay as you go’ rate or as 
 part of a Browsing Pack.  
 
 Cheers,
 Ronni
