PDAnet: turn iPhone into a WI-FI HotSpot for free

Surely many users want to share the iPhone 3G connection with another device (the iPad, for example) and find that applications such as MyWi are excessively expensive. The solution comes from the hand of PDAnet, a simpler application with fewer possibilities than MyWi but that perfectly fulfills its function and, above all, that is totally free.

As you can see in the screenshots, the application shows us the data consumed and the remaining battery level. The main downside of the application is that it does not support multitasking so we will not be able to perform any other task with the iPhone while PDAnet is active, although apparently, thanks to backgrounder this problem is solved (thanks to my colleague iPetahh for the warning).

Finally, it should be noted that PDAnet also allows us to perform tethering through the USB connection.

Those of you who want to try this application have to download "PdaNet Free Edition" from the ModMyi repository.

    @Nacho:
    I quote verbatim: ¨ The main downside of the application is that it does not support multitasking so we will not be able to perform any other task with the iPhone while PDAnet is active.¨

    To have multitasking, install ¨Backgrounder¨, and you already have PdaNet with multitasking. (It's what I do).

    Add it to the entrance if you want.

    I use it and it works perfectly. It is a free version, which has a limitation, which for certain people, can be a problem. After 14 days, it does not allow you to enter secure websites, apparently. You can see this if you click on the register button… By the way, I am surprised that the license of this application is more expensive than that of mywi !!!

    A greeting.

    A question.
    If you have contracted the data rate of € 15 from vodafone, can you use this application to connect with the laptop?
    Or do they realize and they raise you, as I have heard, at the most expensive rate?

    thank you very much!

    Hello, minivoley, from what I understand it is not allowed, but the cases in which it has been the case that you were raised to the 39,90 rate are very rare. I've gotten over looking on the internet, and a lot of people use it (in moderation, not to download albums or movies) and nothing happens to them. I do not play the neck, at the moment I do not use it. But what I do do is IP calls with 3G (which supposedly can't be done) and at the moment they haven't raised my rate (I also tell you that I use it when I need to talk and I don't have Wi-Fi at hand)

    All the best

    A question,
    Do you have to download the application to the computer directly or to the iphone? I have downloaded the Modmyi app to my iphone and I have registered, but I cannot find this application. I don't know how to get hold of it. Thanks!

    Well, I've been using it for a long time but I had to go through the box ... PdaNet Free Edition comes out on the iphone in the ModMyi repository.

    It is free for I think 15 days or so and it cost me the license of $ 16 (€ 10) to continue using it.
