How to use your VERIZON cell for FREE internet

**david_594** · 02-26-2007, 10:04 PM

Seeing as how they dropped Q2N, does anyone thing that would constitute a way to get out of a verizon contract without paying the early termination fee?

I used q2n for years, stopped for the last year or so, and went to use it the other day only to find its gone. I loved that 14.4 connection and am really kind of unhappy its gone.

I just upgraded to an LG VX-8300. Can I use this phone as a modem thru bluetooth? Do you guys have any special plans? VCast? Or is the completely free? Does the "phone#@vzw3g.com pass:vzw" still work?

Thanks guys

Who's free wireless internet still works?
Does this work anymore?
I have a V710 still and wondering if the cable will still work. I haven't bought anything yet.
I friend told me about there is a way to connect via verizon today So I did research and found this thread.

Thanks for looking,
Blake

on my verizon razr qnc/qnc worked find yesterday at 120k. Not sure if there is a extra charge just tried it for the first time and I am going to wait for my bill to see if there is one.

I just use a 1 dollar retractable usb cord that I got at a dollar store. And I got the drivers from afterdawn.com forum. The future dial driver didn't work for me.

I was trying to set up connection today and I'm failing user name/password check. Did they change something?
I use to be able to connect this way a while back, but not now.

So I am curious. I have a Palm Treo 700WX (Windows mobile 5). I have the Unlimited data package. Could I use this (since it dials to #777 for access) for free and not being charged minutes? Correct?

Yes, you can. Although you may have to hack into your phone and change some things manually to allow it.

I have an XV6700 (PDA phone similar to your Treo) now with the unlimited data plan. I use it all the time for my tethering with my laptop via USB or Bluetooth. Works great, but I had to manually change a few things on the phone (easy to do, search google).

I tried to use ph#@vzw3g.com/vzw over bluetooth and it won't work. Do I have to use the cable? I have a LG VX8300 connecting to a laptop with built in bluetooth.

ok, I have been reading this thread and I have to say, I am utterly confused. I have an LG 9800 and I am wanting to do this via Bluetooth. Is this possible yet? Is there any mods I can do? Also as for the cable method, does that still work or did verizon kill that?

again..

1. connect the phone to the computer (via bluetooth etc)
2. establish a dialup network to Verizon and choose to use the phone as the modem. The PC cannot access the phone as a modem unless you have the two paired first.
3. dial away w/ login and pass.
