Tethering a Blackberry to a Tablet

daveb1_2

I have a Lenovo Tablet that has 3G.

I have a Blackberry 9900 phone.

Can I use my internet allowance for my Tablet and if so how do I (I believe its called this?) tether it?

I used to use my old Blackberry internet on my older laptop but can't remember how except I think I had to put some Blackberry thing on the desktop to log in to. I'm assuming it will be something similar.

Please help if you can.

Thanks

tether is a cable connection. You will not be able to do this easily as the Blackberry will need Lenovo usb drivers and vice versa.

Then the lenovo device will need special software on top of this so it can communicate with the blackberry. If you can tether a Berry to a PC it is because the installed software allows it.

the way around this is to turn the Berry into a Mobile Hotspot on the Berry, then make the Lenovo find the berry wifi

Of course you would need to have updated the Bold 9900 to the latest OS (OS7.1) if you have not already done so.

Although it's now being used colloquially to refer to mobile hotspot usage as well.
