Tethering the Verizon Droid

We are parked at the Tom Johnson Camping Resort in Concord, NC using the Droid tethered to the laptop. Great connectivity and still able to receive phone calls and charge the phone through the USB connection.

Tim, I am not positive but I believe the new Verizon Smartfone we now have has a tethering package at $30. per month up to 5g. It is not a contract but can be started and stopped anytime. We can receive text and voice while laptop connected. Verizon did indicate that their aircard @ $59 per month with 5g may have a stronger data capability so will try the tethering route first. Glad to hear yours is good. Tks for your input.

Dennis, I'm paying Verizon their $30.00 or so per month for unlimited phone internet access. Then with the PDANet software, the phone becomes the modem for unlimited access at no extra cost.

Works great and I'm on it now.

Tks for the info. I did look at the PDA net app. It really seems worth trying. I also saw that if you pay a one-time cost you will have access to secure websites after the Free use expires.
