Tried using Nokia PC Suite and this is what I got:
"In order to use the Internet On Your Phone, you must first sign up for one of the plans below...
We're sorry, we are not able to help you with a plan change here. Please check my.t-mobile.com or call customer care to complete this service change."
Basically I can use the 3G T-Mobile Internet connectio on my N900, but can't do so on my laptop. I am sure there is a way around this

Hi everyone. First time poster, long time reader 
I got the "subscription upgrade required" message a while ago. I installed VMWare Player with Ubuntu and set up the N900 in pc suite mode as a mobile broadband connection and it worked. I figured that it might be confusing enough to whatever method T-Mobile is using to detect tethering.
Wine works great for what I use, so this backup is worth the workaround

Sorry for being a noob, but I can't seem to install Nokia PC Suite in Ubuntu 0.o, if I connect my phone and select PC Suite nothing happens. Alternatively, nokia doesn't seem to have PC suite for linux on their website.

In ubuntu, you don't need PC Suite, you can just add a new Mobile Broadband connection using the above APN
