Describes some of the process, and I see you have to jailbreak your phone.

You may already know that it's possible to use your iPhone as a hotspot under certain conditions, but I'm told that you have to give up any unlimited conditions your plan might have.

I have unlimited text and data and if I change plans/settings to allow tethering I'll lose that.

Good luck!
