I finally got around to enabling the Internet Tethering feature for my iPhone. I captured some screenshots for people to see how easy it is.

Also, a big thanks to BenM’s blog for making it easy for all of us!

NOTE: You will need to upgrade the iPhone OS to 3.0 or higher in order for this to work

Apple iPhone Internet Tethering - Step 6 A Warning pop-up menu will appear.
Click on Replace.
Apple iPhone Internet Tethering - Step 7 Once completed, it should say Profile Installed. Click on the Done button. This will take you back to the web page.
Apple iPhone Internet Tethering - Step 8 To check that it was installed and to Turn On Internet Tethering, quit Safari. Located the Settings icon. Click on General in the menu. Then click on Network. You should now see an Internet Tethering option. Click on Internet Tethering to turn it on.

Note: After Internet Tethering is Turned ON, each time you attach the USB to iPhone cable, it will start attempt to connect to the Internet. This can potentially take over your existing Internet connection and seriously drain your battery.

    Jp: I do not maintain or manage that website, my best advice is to check back often to see if they have an updated profile for the 3Gs - it might also be due to the latest update of the OS.
