Tetherberry is a utility that allows you to use your Blackberry Laptop Battery phone’s data service plan to access the internet on your laptop anywhere you have a data signal. Let’s take a closer look so we can learn more about Tetherberry and understand what exactly tethering means.
Introduction
Normally, tethering is somewhat battery complicated because it can be pretty difficult to configure your phone and laptop for the correct settings. It can take hours or even days to configure the proper settings depending on your device and your PC. Luckily Tetherberry makes it possible in just few minutes, you just need a data service plan on your Blackberry, a USB cable to connect your BB to your laptop and of course you will have to install Tetherberry both on your Blackberry and your laptop. You will also have to install Blackberry Desktop Manager on your laptop battery to complete the process. After you have installed Tetherberry dell laptop battery there is no need to do any other settings on your Blackberry or on your laptop and everything else is handled by this useful application. You might wonder whether the internet connection speed with Tetherberry is good enough or not. I must tell you, it is not as fast as your broadband connection but it is acceptable and you will be able to check your e-mail, run Yahoo messenger, open light websites and attach small files with your mail. Let's have a brief look on the installation, inner working and main features of this application.
Installation, Working dell Inspiron 6400 battery and Main Features of Tetherberry
You can download Tetherberry for USD 60.00 from the following link:
http://www.tetherberry.com/
There are two components of the setup file, one for the laptop and another one for your Blackberry Smartphone. Both of these components are easy to install and will take just a few minutes.
The Blackberry setup will be provided to you from the Tetherberry website via a SMS that will automatically install the program when you open it. Once the installation finishes you will be prompted to connect your laptop with your Blackberry device via a USB cable in case you haven’t done that initially. Before you start using the internet via the Tetherberry battery application you should turn off any other dell Inspiron E1505 battery active internet connections to avoid any conflicts.
After you do this you will be asked to start the application and a message will be displayed on you laptop screen showing you the status of your connection and number of packets sent and recieved.
You will then be asked to connected to the Tetherberry website to load some necessary plug-ins and after you do this you are connected to the internet. Now you can start using the internet and open up your browser to see if it works or not. Mine worked just fine and I was able to open my Internet Explorer’s home page easily. It took a little more time than usual but I was able to check my mail and opened some websites without any difficulty.
Considering the difficulties I faced with tethering my dell GD761 battery Blackberry with my laptop before I downloaded this application, it was fast and a piece of cake. While I was connected I was able to use all the other features of my Smartphone without any hassle. I tried using this connection while traveling in the car, on my roof and in battery my office and it displayed excellent results. However, my connection broke once or twice when I was in my basement office, pointing out that my phone connectivity broke with the tower of my service provider and an error message was displayed on my screen before I reconnected again.
As I have told you before the connection speed is not excellent, by that I mean its not broadband speeds but it certainly beats the dial-up or GPRS connections that have been mostly abandoned by cellular carriers these days. But it did show some variations with the signal strength of my service provider but this change was negligible. You can also watch streaming video at low resolution, but don’t try it at higher resolutions because you will be disappointed.
Another thing I was hoping was that I would be able to tether my BB and laptop through a Bluetooth connection as well, however so far there is no such provision for this option in the dell KD476 battery application and you will have to stick with the USB cable. Maybe the developers at Tetherberry battery will try to establish this goal in future versions.
Another drawback I noticed was that Tetherberry doesn’t work on Mac systems.
Finally I highly recommend using an unlimited data plan from your cellular provider, if that isn't an option you should keep an eye on your data transfer from your service provider and be sure that you are not charged absurd amounts to use the data connection.
Final Verdict
Tetherberry offers an easy dell TD347 battery and hassle-free set up and internet connection that is fairly fast to use (much faster than your GPRS or a dial-up connection). But you will also have to pay a heavy price (USD 60.00) for this application and I am sure you can find some nice free open source applications like Tetherberry if you search the internet for long enough.
Also, there are some minor flaws like no Bluetooth connectivity, no compatibility with Mac OS systems and no data transfer counter provided with the application.
Otherwise, if you desperately need to be stay connected to the internet while you are on the move, it is a good substitute for your GPRS connection and the hassle of dell Inspiron 1000 battery self-configuring your devices for tethering purposes.
