Computers like this one can be "tethered" to cell phones.
Internet access via cellular provider is more and more popular, but the cellular Internet plans offered by many providers are expensive. There are a few alternatives to cellular Internet plans, including using your mobile phone as a modem. This process is called "tethering" and allows you to connect to the Internet through a dial-up connection in your phone. With the right equipment and technique, you can use your LG Vu CU920 with a USB cable to connect to the Internet.
Instructions
1. Log on to the LG website and download the modem driver for the Vu CU920 to your computer's desktop.
2. Install the modem driver by double-clicking on the program icon on your desktop. Follow the instructions in the install wizard until it is complete.
3. Plug a LG Vu CU920 USB cable from your LG Vu CU920 into an empty USB jack in your computer.
4. Click the "Start" menu and select "Control Panel."
5. Click "Network and Sharing Center," then click "Set up a Connection or Network."
6. Click "Set up a Dial-up Connection." This will open up a window where you can enter your LG Vu CU920's information.
7. Type the cellular dial-up connection number in the Dial-up Phone Number field. This number differs between each cellular provider. Contact your cellular provider to get the number that it uses for this sort of connection. Leave the username and password blank. If you like, you can enter a name for the connection in the "Connection Name" field.
8. Click "Connect" to connect to the new network connection.
